every christmas season the local hardware stores have to put up signs yelling "WE DO NOT SELL MALE TO MALE CORDS, WE WILL NOT MAKE THEM"
-
@foone all cables are trans
-
@foone
Can't we all just settle on non binary power cords and be done with it? -
@foone misandry very very sad
-
@qdoit I know!
Let our males love each other! -
@SvenGeier I am, obviously, all in favor of non-binary cords.
-
@GTRichey my god, I never thought of it like this.
-
@foone that's because of the bible. It clearly says that male with male is an aberration, but it's strangely silent on female with female.
-
@hackbarth I believe in separation of church and electricity!
-
@hackbarth I got annoyed the first time I saw a church with solar panels.
that's not the power from on high that you're supposed to be believing in, guys! -
@yantor3d I think there's some kind of halting-problem sort of inability to stop the customer from making the thing, as if "electrical store + customer" is turing complete, using "turing complete" as a metaphor for "can be used to make an M-to-M cable".
A hardware shop that cannot supply the parts to make an M-to-M cable is an incomplete hardware shop, so they have to. But they have to at least try to stop ya.

@foone homophobic double standards

@jackemled exactly!
