"I activate Pot of HRT, which allows me to draw two new pronouns from my deck."

I'm using Counterspell, now you don't have any pronouns.

waigl@lemmy.world · 91 pts · 130d (2 replies)

But the pronouns I use for myself are I/me!

snoons@lemmy.ca · 28 pts · 130d

Mine/mine!

IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 130d

i agree with me

shweddy@lemmy.world · 77 pts · 130d (3 replies)

My pronouns are yoink'd/yours

AzuraTheSpellkissed@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 37 pts · 130d (1 reply)

Instructions are unclear, can I call you mine?

fartographer@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 130d

What's yours is mine, and what's mine is ours

I hate you Alfalfa

At least you didn't steal my username :3

Dude just wait until I show you nested genders, or Gender View ViewGender models. Gene was right, though he was just trying to sell merch.

Warl0k3@lemmy.world · 26 pts · 130d (4 replies)

She(She(She(She(Her))))

riwo@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 14 pts · 130d (2 replies)

is this a lisp?

xquje@lemmy.zip · 9 pts · 130d

Is there such a thing like a pronouns-bomb? And would that be called "pronbombo"?

Skullgrid@lemmy.world · 20 pts · 130d (1 reply)

If I have to implement one more fucking abstract gender factory so help me god

Sanctus@anarchist.nexus · 12 pts · 130d

Dont worry, I have permission to use this: wfziwYkKoYjY7Jy.jpg

Truly inspiring, if only it wasn't disabled in game.

sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 8 pts · 130d

Are your genders object oriented?

Can they be expressed in trinary?

Do they accept NULL or NaN inputs, or do they need to be safely initialized with a sentinel value?

Tetragrade@leminal.space · 42 pts · 130d (8 replies)

My pronouns are

function getPronouns() {
    const dateNow = new Date();

    if(dateNow.getMonth()===3 && dateNow.getDate()===1) {
        return "clown/clownself";
    }
    else {
        const timeNow = dateNow.getTime();
        if(timeNow%3 === 0) {
            return "they/them";
        }
        else if(timeNow%5 === 0) {
            return "she/her";
        }
        else if(timeNow%7 === 0) {
            return "he/him";
        }
        else {
            return "void/voidself";
        }
    }
}

console.log(getPronouns());

Please run this code in your browser console before interacting with me to determine my pronouns at that point in time.

yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de · 9 pts · 130d (3 replies)

But why would I use third-person pronouns when interacting with you?

Tetragrade@leminal.space · 5 pts · 129d

Void don't understand you.

p4rzivalrp2@piefed.social · 3 pts · 129d (1 reply)

Didn't you hear, how dare you not call void', 'void/voidself'

gandalf_der_12te@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 128d

i still find it funny to think about the void type as a legitimate data type with a 0 byte width. so you can have


void a;
void b = a;
return b;

froufox@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 7 pts · 129d (3 replies)

unnecessary else after if with a return statement

Tetragrade@leminal.space · 7 pts · 129d

Its a stylistic choice. In this house we turn off no-else-return.

ayyy@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 129d (1 reply)

This shitty attitude about saving characters to reduce clarity is how we get things like https://gotofail.com/

froufox@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 129d

that doesn't reduce clarity, that improves it

Peppycito@sh.itjust.works · 30 pts · 129d (2 replies)

All this talk about pronouns, I just want to know your adverbs. Mine are Lazily and Slowly.

Holytimes@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 128d (1 reply)

Honestly, who gives a fuck about pronouns. Adverbs are the new hotness.

Tired/exhausted are mine

Frost752@crazypeople.online · 1 pts · 127d

Not to be that guy, but those are adjectives.

stepan@lemmy.cafe · 28 pts · 130d (4 replies)

what if two people like that talk?

Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone · 31 pts · 130d

Ouroboros gender

applebusch@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 12 pts · 130d

They call it gay and make out

AzuraTheSpellkissed@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 10 pts · 130d

It's a paradox, like time traveling to kill your parents.

atopi@piefed.blahaj.zone · 22 pts · 129d (2 replies)

i have yet to encounter pronouns as cool as recursive pronouns

The pronouns changing every time they are used comes close though

Our pronouns, comrade

I’ve heard ‘any pronoun stated respectfully’

Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone · 22 pts · 130d

I liked the way Leslie Feinberg put it:

I care which pronoun is used, but people have been respectful to me with the wrong pronoun and disrespectful with the right one. It matters whether someone is using the pronoun as a bigot, or if they are trying to demonstrate respect.

cadekat@pawb.social · 19 pts · 130d

Order all pronoun sets by how frequently you think they are applied to me, then choose the second most frequent. That set is today's pronouns.

I get very angry if you are wrong.

mathemachristian@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 18 pts · 130d

Lol mirror/your pronouns is a selection hexbear has

Malgas@beehaw.org · 16 pts · 130d (3 replies)

But I use I/me pronouns for myself. That'll get confusing real quick.

riwo@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 130d (1 reply)

i don't think so

Malgas@beehaw.org · 6 pts · 130d

I have no idea who either of us is talking about.

Alright, what else do we need to make these Turing-complete?

gandalf_der_12te@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 128d

i think you need at least a rule for how to infer new pronouns from the old pronouns, and you need a way to jump forward and back in the pronoun stack

Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 10 pts · 129d (3 replies)

This kind of people are really precious. If you can find some that synergize well with each other you can get a lot of mult.

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 129d

I weirdly was ok being called girliepop, and even felt fuzzy. But I think that's just because a trans person accepted me after a lecture ^_^

Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 129d (1 reply)

Synergize? Mult? Sorry, I don’t speak corporate.

My pronouns are the opposite of yours

sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 8 pts · 130d

I am pro anti-nouns.

Meaning that I may or may not like you, depending on how/what you parse that statement to mean.

Batmancer@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 129d

I like to say my pronouns are whatever I look like to you.

I’m afraid it will be interpreted as mean though but I really don’t mind.

Grail@multiverse.soulism.net · 5 pts · 129d

I'm doing My part! I use capitalised pronouns, like I, Me, You, They, She, and It.
