Lol at the comment not understanding that women can have dicks

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
my trans coworker a few jobs back showed us a meme: "Girls are like pizza. Some girls are like a plain cheese pizza. Girls like me are like a pizza with sausage."
she was a trip. Fond working with her.
Which reminds me: never seen Polish or German sausage on a pizza.
- Person replies: are you straight? You just haven't had the right dick yet
Doesn't work if the NPC is female tho
Helen launched a thousand ships but somehow people think that it’s dick that’s powerful? Please.
And that was only with her face!

Doesn't make any sense.
Sure does, what's tripping you up there?

Could you finish this statement, if possible? Trans woman are ______
Now I would recommend taking great care in how you answer. Some consideration of what instance you're on would probably also help.
Trans women are wonderful and accepted parts of our society! Trans women sometimes have penises and that makes us twinsies because I have a penis too! Trans women are humans usually except for the aliens pretending to be humans and sometimes posing as Trans women!
There I finished it for you! Couldn't help meself
And don't forget women.
Trans wonen are women. Simple as.
Only in your own mind, making it a "you" problem, not one with reality.
Thank you for explaining the drawing 🙏
Not sure if /s or not, so: some people can't see, that is for their screen readers
A transcription is not an explanation
So, can anyone explain why the "\
" symbol disappears when typed out normally? what do you have to do to make it register?
Markdown formatting, \ is often used as what is called an escape sequence. I don't knew the rules for lemmy's markdown, just remember to add 2 \'s
with the shrug emoticon you have to use 3
the underscore is used for text formatting so you have to escape it and the back slash
2 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
3 ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh dear. In my client, Connect, the 2 slash version looks right and the 3 slash version has a doubled arm. I suspect it's not rendering markdown correctly.
Lemme try:
¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Okay idk how to describe this, but those two text strings above are seemingly identical in plain text, but one renders correctly, the other incorrectly in my client. I feel like I'm being gaslit.
Liftoff here, 2 is the right number... except in some comments where 3 works too unless it doesn't 🤷
2 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (second italics escaped)

2 ¯\(ツ)/¯ - unescaped ITALICS

3 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (first italics escaped)
33 20 c2 af [5c 5c] [5c 5f] 28 e3 83 84 29 5f 2f c2 af 0a
3 ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ - doubled

Ah, so there's a non-printing character in there. It's weird that the person making a demo to explain it made that mistake.
Huh. didnt think it was that east, thank you!
I just look up "shrug text emoji" and copy pasta that lol 😂
Here you go, this is how to make it appear properly in markdown: ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
It will appear as this when you paste it: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thanks though I don't seem to be having any issues, looks fine on kabin!
Oh my bad, I keep forgetting how differently the fediverse can look in different instances!
No worries I appreciate the help!
It's often used to escape a character that would otherwise be interpreted as code. So you should be able to use two in a row to escape the escape. \
