"Transparency" would implode their brains, it's just too much of a word for them to even try to comprehend.

"Trans-paren(like parents?)-cy(what? cyanide?) TRANS PARENTS ARE GIVING THEIR KIDS CYANIDE!!"

Or the transmissions in the transports...

You're asking for someone to transcribe it for you?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 6 months ago

Ew, no that sounds gay. Is there a straightcriber in here?

I prefer the alternative gender for that profession, criptionist.

A lot’s changed. Back in my parents’ day, a trip to the city meant taking the

to the airport to fly a

Seems like being trans back then must have been such a gift. People would obviously hold you in such high regard.

No, no I'm pretty sure the bigots support the deportation of trans people... They seem to want to deport everyone not white enough, why stop at race?

Do you suppose stupid bigots will avoid transplants because they don't want to become plants?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

You know what's weird? If you do a transplant between trees it's called a graft. Transplant was right there smh

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

They're fine with becoming plants, just not if it's trans.

I thought their God was also Transcendent?

All my plugs are male–male. I take all in stride:

ITT: figuring out that "trans-" means "across" by giving other words with same prefix. Yey etymology

[–] [email protected] 25 points 6 months ago (9 children)

“meta” also still means “across” in Greece

phérō meant “I carry”

metaphor: I carry across

they now use the term for “transportation in general”

here’s a modern truck in Greece for ΜΕΤΑΦΟΡΙΚΗ

in Greek, they use μεταφορική έννοια (metaforikí énnoia – literally “transportation sense”) to mean “metaphor”

5 billion people believe that God is bigender, which is often considered transgender.

Conservatives worship a transgender being. Transphobes cope and seethe.

God is also a genderless being who uses capitalized male pronouns.

The data I'm looking at says only 55% of people are even monotheistic. Where are you getting that 5 billion number from?

I'm surprised any Republicans even drive vehicles seeing as each one of them has a transmission.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

Probably wouldn't want anything to do with a homeowner either...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Maybe a pun is just a pun and you're making a thing out of nothing. I don't know. Context an intend matter.
