As a person who grew up in American schools post-Columbine, with kids in schools now, and none of us are CEOs, this is probably the take that saddens me most about this whole event. It’s our kids, and the argument used to be about freedom. Soon, we won’t even have that. What was the fucking point? (Rhetorical: profit)

I know we’re all alive at a special time in humanity. We think we’re so civilized. Then I look around, and it’s the same history playing on repeat. When do the monkeys figure out it’s one species? (Rhetorical again: 😬)

People aren't all the same species. People with human bodies come in lots of species on the inside. For example, drag has a pet dragon whose body is human. The world is much more interesting after you realise everyone's different.

You have a pet human? Is that like a sex thing?

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, drag doesn't have any pet humans. You must have drag confused for someone else.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does drag have any pet dragons in a human body? Is that pet dragon a sex thing?

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -2 points 1 year ago

That's a really weird and gross way to talk about drag's fiance.

What? Do you have a problem with dragons, or just with love?

[–] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have a problem with dragons. They're overused to the point of being boring

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's a bit of an ironic thing to say if you're a human.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No it's not. They don't fill the same story niche. And you're human too, regardless of what your calls for calls for attention say.

BOOOOOOORIIIIIING

[–] HonouraryDragon@lemmy.nz -1 points 1 year ago

Yeah? What of it?

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Dunno why they downvoted you.

[–] DogWater@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Because this multiple species take has been a basis of slavery in the past.

people aren't realizing this is that crazy guy who thinks he's a dragon and refers to himself in third person.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago

No one's enslaving anybody. Dreg's just being a based otherkin and living beyond the limitations of human existence.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -1 points 1 year ago

Drag doesn't use he/him pronouns, and doesn't identify as a guy. You're allowed to disagree with drag's gender identity and think trans people should only be allowed to identify as genders you approve of, but assigning an entirely new gender onto drag is taking things a bit too far.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe they want the world to be boring

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Or maybe they're worried that you're collecting humans as pets

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Dreg never said anything about humans as pets

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They said they have a pet dragon whose body is human. I'm not sure how to parse that, but it could be quite disturbing.

[–] HonouraryDragon@lemmy.nz -2 points 1 year ago

It is disturbing to have a body that doesn't align with my species. If you mean my very existence makes you uncomfortable then kindly shut the fuck up and live and let live.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -2 points 1 year ago

Drag doesn't use he/him pronouns. But otherwise thank you for the support.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They don't have to worry about that, drag doesn't have any human pets.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm very confused by your statement that you have a pet dragon whose body is human.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -2 points 1 year ago

Well you see, drag is a dragon rider, and drag the dragon rider rides a dragon. If you'd like to know more about this kind of relationship, you should read Eragon.
