Much love to the dragonkin community <3

I actually met My partner while healing a dragon with magic

I used to be close with a dragon named xe, and xis human alter, Henk. At one time, their headspace was filled with a corrosive black fog that killed anything that stepped foot in it. As a wizard, I know that physical problems in headspace are often representations of psychosocial problems, so I asked some questions. Turned out the fog was a metaphor for the guilt Henk felt for hurting Xe in the past. I knew therefore that the antidote would be forgiveness from xe. But how does a feral-form, non-sapient, barely-verbal dragon express forgiveness?

I shapeshifted into a dragon of the same kind as xe and breathed fire on the fog. My fire did nothing. But xe took the cue, stood up, and added xis own fire. And Xe's fire burned the fog away, until it was all gone. A sharkplane named Ivy happened to be watching, and fell in love with Me on the spot.

Aww, you did a good thing! Thanks for sharing.

Seems like knowing a wizard comes in handy.

[-] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 4 points 3 days ago

That's why I firmly believe everyone should learn magic. Magic is an essential skill, like changing a tire. Right now, most wizards are employed by the Epstein class, and we call them publicists. They use images inscribed with symbols to change our perceptions and rewrite reality. Which sucks, because they always rewrite reality to be more capitalist. The working class needs to take magic back from the Epstein class.

This whole time, that was an option?! I feel so cheated.

[-] Dojan@pawb.social 11 points 3 days ago

Ah. Kobolds always wanting to be dragons.

[-] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 6 points 3 days ago

Well, can you blame us? :(

[-] Dojan@pawb.social 6 points 3 days ago

Well actually… no!

“Had me going in the first half.”

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

That comic is so old I remember seeing it before I transitioned. Glad to see it's still going around

I heard this was the post that started it:

That's my upload limit.

[-] KernelTale@programming.dev 9 points 3 days ago

I never knew I could overeat on trans but I guess it's the same as sugar.

[-] Wirlocke 4 points 2 days ago

So there's a lot of posts or art that try to reframe villians as being pro-trans, usually to the effect of "we're not that messed up" even when it's entirely possible that they would be that messed up.

So I really appreciate that Sauron doesn't make an exception for trans people here. "Transition? Sure, how about you transition into the Mesozoic Era Spiderman!!"

[-] KokusnussRitter@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 3 days ago

I don't know why there are lot's of trans spidey memes atm, and at this point I am too afraid to ask... 👉 👈

[-] absentbird@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Spider trans, spider trans
Does whatever while being trans!
Spins a web, any size
Fixes bugs in thigh highs

[-] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 10 points 3 days ago

It's because they're great!

They are! I was wondering if marvel had released something recently that promted these to become popular :3

[-] BitUnWise@programming.dev 8 points 3 days ago

Surely you could do both at the same time

[-] KokusnussRitter@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 4 days ago

Ptera the trans Pteranodon

[-] nightwatch_admin@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

My thoughts exactly, por que no los dos??

[-] slemptastrophe@piefed.social 4 points 3 days ago

how sloppy of me. Thank you for pointing that out!

(Also, I go by capitalised pronouns, so it's "You" instead of "you".)

Maybe you can help Me understand it better. I like the top half with Dr Strange, but I don't understand the context around Robo Gobbo's reply.

(If it's Brand New Day spoilers, please don't explain it)

[-] zoloftt@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

It's a reference to an Xmen comic where Jean Grey accidentally outs Iceman.

[-] binarytobis@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Similarly I also don’t recognize the bottom panel, just thought the top half was funny.

[-] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 4 points 3 days ago

Damn.

I figured it out! That's Jean Grey, who can read minds

[-] binarytobis@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

That is a good addition haha.

[-] Visstix@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Pterosaurs are not dinosaurs.

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago

False, I'm pretty sure the DNA stays the same, regardless of whether the organism grows up to be male or female.

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

*Except for the Y chromosome. You'd have to somehow insert these genes and get them to be expressed

Seems they mostly have to do with development of testicles

If you're rewriting DNA to make people into dinosaurs, then changing a Y chromosome to an X chromosome and making the changes express themselves seems downright simple by comparison.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

also dinosaurs/reptiles generally dont use the XY system like mammals do. they have a ZW system to determine sex, and for some its temperature based. ZZ for male birds, and ZW for female birds(ZW means 2 different chromosones, and ZZ is too similar ones). birds, reptile, seems more complicated than the mammal system. the closest in between would be monotreme xy , they behave more like ZW eventhough they have 10sex chromosomes.
