I’ve always wanted to talk about how weird it was scrolling through reddit and then suddenly seeing myself on the front page. I was banned from reddit for talking about politics (I am anti trump) on the air force reddit so I wasn’t even able to comment on a post about me.
For some backstory, I was returning from a Halloween cruise and it was the only clean shirt I had left (I was planning on wearing it during the cruise as there were no children allowed on the cruise and with the theme I thought it would get a few laughs or at least start a conversation). I never did though and doing laundry on a cruise was quite expensive (I think 50 dollars per load or something like that). I tried to hide the shirt as best I could throughout the day as I do think it was slightly inappropriate to wear in a public setting.
For the record, I love all the comments roasting me and I laughed all fucking day reading them!
Anyways, I have always wanted to publicly talk about this and in my search for reddit alternatives I found lemmy so here we are. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

I hate this “culture” (?) of recording/photographing strangers and posting them online, but on the other hand this is sooo funny. I’m sorry it happened to you lmao.
It’s absolutely invasive and (almost always, even though people think they could remedy this with a simple sign) against the law in Europe.
So… you sound like a nice dude, so just so you know, there are people in the goth subculture that do not appreciate that joke (and its translations). For different reasons, but the majority find it fetishizing and sexist. I opened saying you look like a nice dude because I don’t think that’s your intention, or the intention of most here commenting, but that’s how many goth people feel and… well, in case you really want to meet goth people, that might be actually causing the opposite effect (that is, your shirt driving them off).
You know, I think if I was in this situation I would just wear the shirt inside out
I honestly didn’t think about that. But I also didn’t think it was that big of a deal either.
It’s not a big deal. It’s silly and hilarious. Own it 😁
Oh yeah, I love it lol.
what were you reading tho
Clockwork prince by Cassandra Clare. I found the three book series at a thrift store and got though the first book on the cruise and was working on the second.
Was it a good book series? Worth reading?
If you like fantasy, romance and a bit of mystery. It wasn’t anything amazing but I found it for a few bucks at a thrift store and it’s held my attention so far. Apparently there are a ton of books in the series.
SPOILER: It’s the sleeping dude.
Just kidding!! Welcome to Lemmy.
Haven’t read all the comments here but I hope some are of welcome. This is a safe space for lovers of goth tiddies.
804 upvotes is epic in this land so all I can say is there’s your welcome.
I feel dirty any time I lose my spine and peek back at a favorite Reddit sub or two. It’s so gross now.
I’m still figuring this place out myself.
It’s a journey. Again: welcome.
Nothing wrong with looking at niche content on Reddit, it just doesn’t exist here. However I recommend doing what I do- don’t interact, don’t even vote.
You know what you want and how to get it, more than most people can say
I mean, I would love a goth girl with giant boobs, but boobs are boobs. I just want someone nice who knows how to communicate!
Sick shirt. Welcome to Lemmy! Great place to talk about political stuff! And also never ever see anything but politics god I’m so tired of seeing trumps face…
Anyway, welcome to the fediverse, did I mention I use linux?
beans arch unix socks corn 3 days cant shit
3 days can’t shit is a deep cut. I wonder how many on Lemmy even remember that.
Edit: also read that in the fairly odd parents intro song
3 days can’t shit was like RIGHT after the API exodus and was an incredible thing to experience right away
doing laundry on a cruise was quite expensive (50 dollars a load)
Jesus fuck. What company did you cruise with? I’ve worked fot NCL and have been on a Princess cruise; both offered laundry services free.
It was virgin voyages. I just looked it up and it was actually 30, but still.
Hell, I’m annoyed that my apartment’s laundry service is like video game MTX where you need credits for the machine. The machines are like 2 and a half bucks each, but you can only buy a minimum of $10 worth of credits which gets me 2 loads, and then leaves some credits left over that I can’t use or get refunded.
Bro I feel you. The apartment i live in right now does that too. Its 2.50 to wash and 2.50 to dry. I can’t wait to move.
Did you get approached by any big tiddy goth girls?
They swarmed me.
After a few weeks it got so out of hand that you actually had to change shirts!
Actually, i’m like Doug Funny, I only have one outfit…
do you have any intention on dating one? i think you have the courage and confidence to do so. you got this, dominic. we believe in you. seriously!
you could’ve just worn it inside out….
that said, me too buddy… except i just want a little tiddy goth gf….
honestly tiddy size doesn’t matter to me much, i feel like there’s too much focus big tiddy goth gf’s and the rest of the goth gf world is being ignored….
#allGothGFsAreAwesomeWhat I said to my ex (paraphrasing) “Yeah don’t get me wrong, I love big titties, but I’m more interested in the girl they’re attached to”
so romantic! :)
A romantic
I want a big booty Japanese girlfriend. Please, if there’s a God send a Japanese girl with a phat ass my way.
just go to japan, that’s where most japanese girls are

I was banned from reddit for talking about politics (I am anti trump) on the air force reddit so I wasn’t even able to comment on a post about me.
I know this is Lemmy and Reddit is bad etc., but FYI when you get banned from one subreddit by its mods, it doesn’t ban you from the entirety of Reddit. You could comment if you wanted.
nah say shit like “I’m surprised more nazis haven’t been shot yet” enough times and Reddit will ban you
source: happened to me. never advocated violence, doesn’t stop them from misinterpreting it. fucking idiots. unfortunately also happens on Lemmy - I was poking through the logs recently and saw someone had blatantly misinterpreted a comment as exactly the opposite of the message it was conveying
I got banned for “encouraging violence” in the COMBATFOOTAGE subreddit for saying we should fly more drones around the Ukraine warzone to make the Russians waste more ammunition trying to shoot them down (the post was a video of some Russian moron emptying his magazine trying to take a Ukrainian drone down).
When I disputed it, claiming it’s not encouraging any kind of violence (unless you count violence towards drones as violence?), I got a permanent site wide ban. After 15ish years on reddit, I called it. That site has sunk so low in the past decade - seems to get worse as time goes on. The censorship there is insane now.
The dissonance of “not allowed to advocate for violence”, while at the same time, not only hosting combat footage, but also it being perfectly allowed to advocate for war or military operations, or talk about how “x country needs to shoot y enemy in this war” or similar, never ceases to amaze me. I literally don’t get it. What is war if not exactly that?
But I guess, if it’s state-sanctioned it’s perfectly fine. Even if, either way, it still results in violence and people dying. Just sucks that you can’t say that a war criminal deserves to die. Fucking double standards
when you get banned from one subreddit by its mods, it doesn’t ban you from the entirety of Reddit.
Sure, but unlike Lemmy, the admins CAN ban you from all of Reddit, permanently, for little to no reason.
They can do it with ample reason too though, tbf 🤷
You can absolutely get a total site ban with no reason.
All it takes is some offended moderator to cry to site admins, and more frequently than not its because you dared to not press puckered lips against the pumpkin colored donut hole of their false-god emperor.
I’d wager good money on the fact that they even run bot nets that mass report any undesirable comment, cause mass reports tend to provoke sitewide bans real fast. possibly automatically
I was temp banned a few times from the air force reddit and then I think they reported it to the admins because I had a perma ban. I tried making another account and it shortly got banned as well. It’s definitely a site wide ban.
Why do dudes that fetishize “”“goth”“” girls all look exactly like you would expect them to.
And why do so many goth girls go head over heels for dudes that look like that
I mean none of the alternative people I know are into being fetishized like that. In fact they absolutely hate it.
Having a preference isn’t automatically fetishizing people and there’s a world of difference between the two. I have a preference for big boobs but I didn’t even consider pursuing my now ex until i overheard her having a heart to heart with a troubled friend I was very close too.
Yes I agree, but the whole “big toddy goth GF” meme is 100% fetishization
So we’re not allowed to be attracted to large breasted goth women? Are they condemned to live lonely lives since no ones allowed to be into them?
Bro stop being obtuse. Just have some common decency for fuck sake and Stop fetishizing people.
If going for well read people with a sense of ethics that I can easily converse with is fetishizing people then it’s alot more positive term than you make it sound. Maybe more people should fetishize each other.
I’ll have what she’s having
A nap?
Hell yeah
Least horny redditor
