Train driving socks.
Always knew programming socks were beneficial in way more applications than just programming but I didn't think this would be one of them. The more you know.
There is a series of documentaries where people of many professions wear them. It is a bit on the weirder side because they always end in sex, so not sure how scientific this docu series is.
Hmm how weird. I wonder what the name is? Ya know.... for scientific reasons :3
Never heard of that one, but it does sound very weird, and also a bit gross.
You’re telling me a sock drove this train?
No, a femboy that wore train driving socks.
You're telling me a femboy wearing a train drove these socks?
What is the shark about?
Blahaj, the patron shark plushie of many LGBTQ+ peoples of the internet.

#TIL
You're telling me a sock drives this train?!
Finally, trains rights.
Taking and publishing that picture, I want to say... ballsy.
There is a german speaking train subreddit where like half of the train drivers are femboys (or it is just the same two people posting so often that my perception is skewed), so I would guess that it is fine. Gender non conforming people and trains just go well together.
I bet it's the same reason there's a lot of GNC people in Linux communities. Trains and Linux similarly attract many autistic people, and autistic people tend to be less attached to gender roles (correlation not causation). It's speculated that as a result, autistic people tend to be more likely to explore their gender identity (this bit hasn't been studied yet afaik) and then you end up with trends like this. Train drivers and programmers are all femboys and trans people
I will remember this next time I'm told "sänk ju for träwelling wis Deutsche Bahn".
Tra(i)ns.
Public trans(it)
Taking is fine, you usually cant look into the driver cabin. Publishing idk...
Why wouldn't it be okay?
Well I COULD, hypothetically, see an employer not being exactly ecstatic about their employees doing this while apparently on company time. I know it's unlikely for OP's employer to not only see this but also think it worthwhile to find out who they are, I mostly wanted to make a dumb joke ;)
Falscher Arbeitsplatz
Dachte du kennst den Kollegen vielleicht.
DB ist ein kleines Familienunternehmen bei dem sich alle gegenseitig kennen
Du wirst dich wundern was die DB für ein Dorf ist
Ich arbeite auch bei der Bahn und habe dich da noch nie gesehen
Bist du dir da sicher?
Meine Kollegen sind alle noch auf reddit...
In Deutschland sind 3 häufigste Gender:
- Frauen
- Männer
- Baangestellte
Who did the unnecessary censorship?
I think cooked people started to believe certain words like covid and racist were getting their posts less exposure on social media, so they started censoring it like this (even though its embedded in the image) and now it seems to be a trend for people who think they're leaking some ground breaking anti government data, but they're just talking about chemtrails or Bill gates.
I've tried to talk about the bad things Trump has done/said, in the comments sections on YouTube. If I don't censor myself, by misspelling words or leaving out keywords, nobody can see my comment, even me. I have to walk around the issue and point to places where the information actually is, in order for anyone to see it. That results in most people thinking I'm wrong, but it's either that, or do nothing. It could be the YouTube channel, but some of them are left leaning channels and it still happens
exactly this lol. lots of people always come into this convo talking tough shit because they simply just don’t go to places where shadow banning happens. not every site is like lemmy/reddit with little to no algorithm manipulation based on keywords. it’s honestly embarrassing when people refuse to accept that and act all uppity.
I appreciate being seen😅 Even if it's just one other person 😂
this discussion invariably happens at some point sigh xD
some sites have ocr and will take down or algorithm limit your posts if you have certain language. i got this from one such site. i was NOT about to go to twitter and give them traffic to find the original. sorry not sorry lol.
Anyone else see that windshield wiper looking like Slenderman? Just me?
Pyramid head in a suit.
Rear loco
Been there, done that (without the programming socks tho)
Should try it with programming socks.
I don't think he's the reason the train is late, they seem to be stopped at a station. He's just taking the opportunity while stopped to take a picture.

Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
