Megathread Tranny Sideshows on Social Media - Any small-time spectacle on Reddit, Tumblr, Twitter, Dating Sites, and other social media.

So what you're telling us is that an incredibly autistic hobby where you do nothing but play shitty games fast is dominated by nerdy white men and the only "women" they could find are white men?

I'm shocked.

It's easier to say that no woman will want to be a top speedrunner of any popular game considering the amount of sacrifice and autism it requires.

Trust me, there’s still plenty of troons in TF2 and they’re the worst on community servers. Back when TF2 was at its peak there were tons of degenerates, almost as bad as Overwatch but this was before woke internet. Back then you’d see these people and just tell them to fuck off if they’re causing problems.

Community servers are just cesspools and free roleplay servers for people who don't want to use Gary's Mod or VRchat.

You can find whatever internet thing you want in those servers; bronies and trannies are just the tip of the iceberg.

 

[whatever I feel like]

The Kiwi speed community is so used to this that the article only merited one or two comments in our thread. Oh those trannies and their grossness.

 

[spiky]

When women do join the hobby, they get erased in articles such as this in favour of TiMs. Is there any wonder why there aren't any? And they say they're sticking up for women.

As autistic, male-dominated, and insular as speedrunning is, this is just yet another of many examples of women being absolutely trashed by TiMs with no remorse.

They made their bed let them lie in it. But honestly this isn't a hobby women enjoy idk if many women will become notable at all and if the article had actual women I doubt it would make a difference.

I don't think women even do this type of stuff. This is the closest you'll get to a woman in this community.


The only thing missing is Brianna Wu's terribly autistic facial expressions.

I've seen one woman at a con thats it. The guy next to her sniffed her chair when she left.

 

[Fausto]

Blessed is the language that does not have pronouns!

But seriously I would like to see some stats about trans people in countries with and without pronouns.

 

[Salubrious]

It would have been nice for speedrun.com to write an article promoting women in speedrunning so we could know about them and encourage them to stick with the hobby.


Yeah I know where you're coming from. I've seen a lot of women come and go - they usually just do a few quick runs and get an okay-ish time rather than comitting to the grind. I mean once you get past that stage in speedrunning, you start to realise just how daunting of a task it is, how much you have to learn and practice. Most people give up at that point, which is where I see Crunchy Leaf's point about men and women just being different in this regard.

I do respect any (actual) women who make it in this hobby (despite many of them being deathfats). You'll have to believe me when I say I was initially genuinely pleased to see the article's title before I actually read it, LOL.

It's kind of like the 80-20 rule.

My guidance counselor explained it to me like this once when I was going through a hard patch at school. You can devote every weekend 8=12 hours per day to have a perfect lawn, or you can spend 1-2 hours per week to have one that's 90% as good.

You can come within a few minutes of a "world record" with some light practice, but you aren't going to beat some of these guys that literally devote dozens of hours per week to the game unless you also devote so much time to it.

 

[BootlegPopeye]

I'm not a big follower of speedrunning (prefer longplays where I can see all the story), but I have seen actual women speedrunners before at a few of these events, they tended to do runs of newer games ie PS3 or Xbox360.

I can't remember if I read this on KF, but someone has said it seems like the main purpose of GDQ is trans activism and I think that is right. Their 'charities' are fucking scams, and the people who run it take an obscene cut for themselves. If speedrunners had any self respect (lol) they wouldn't touch that event.

 

[AmbiTron]

The Kiwi speed community is so used to this that the article only merited one or two comments in our thread. Oh those trannies and their grossness.

I appreciate this being featured so that less-aware people can see the tranny infection but I mostly agree. My first thought was, "Why is this featured?" because trannies have long since taken over speedrunning.

 

[Justanotherguy]

They'll get my pronouns when they pry them out of my cold dead fist.

I'd rather leave pronouns out if anything.

 

[Pixy]

Welp I'm at the "burn it all down" stage with the NYT for advocating child mutilation and sterilization. They have no shame and no sanity. The institutions that fell heavy under the tranny bamboozle (NYT, ACLU, HRC, etc) can't be salvaged. It's proof of endemic corruption.

Anyone who can present their opinion as being news-worthy can write in an opinion piece to newspapers.

 

[GooglePuppet]

Another instance of why gatekeeping needs to be pushed hard in communities. The original community members will get purged to make way for shit like this, thus ruining the community out right. Keep your communities small and obscure. It's happened with minecraft, SCP, and thousands of communities on the internet.

Exactly. All you need is the community's existence. People want fame though, and that's usually the problem.

I only use community servers for alternate game modes but because of it’s very nature the servers grow into echo chambers. I’m sure out of sight they’re even worse than I could imagine.

I'm assuming this Japanese girl went by the online moniker "Sewerslvt", and she wasn't actually called Sewer Slut, right?

Ah, no. Sewerslvt goes by Jvnko. Which is directly inspired by Junko Furuta. I would advise not looking her name up if you don't want to lose all faith in humanity.

 

[M3xus]

I expected one, maybe two troons. All four being troons is beyond the pale. A sane community would look at this article and wonder what went wrong.

I suppose something as neurotic as speedruns would inevitably get co-opted by troon activists. Neuroses and troons go together like rice and soy sauce.

 

[Maurice Caine]

Wrong take on the situation.

Sewerslvt basically alienated everyone he had in his fanbase - /pol/acks initially and then trannies from twitter. As such both of them are going hard on him and his retarded antics.

His mascot is still pretty cute though.

 

[RembrandtCourage]

Their 'charities' are fucking scams, and the people who run it take an obscene cut for themselves.

Is there or has there been proof of this? While I would be willing to accept this at face value some evidence would be stellar because nothing hurts as deeply as the truth.

 

[Red Mask]

the direct result of them fucking with gender norms/nuclear family/traditional values... but rather than thinking about the consequences of their actions and advocacy, they just double down on PATRIARCHY BAD.

Actually, that’s the one thing TERFS got right. They are “radical feminists” after all. Did you really think they’d ever side with the ”traditional values” horseshit?

Anyway, so some ”troons” are featured. Whoopie. Honestly, cis women can have masculine features. So, how do you know for sure they’re “troons”? One or two could be, but not all of them.

 

[Sir Joahim Browinson III]

Do you think that transgenderism is sort of like "subcultural period" thing?
I remember when emos and goths were a thing arround 2007 and hipsters were on the rise in early 2010's. And even before that 2000's is where the punks were popular.
Is think transgenders already surpassed even LGBtwhatever and became sorta their own subculture. There is no way we are having such high percentage of gender dysphoria cases, unless it's just people trying to fit in to a subculture.

 

[usernames can change now!]

there is only one respectable speed runner in the entire world and his name is tomatoanus

It's a little bit cliché to bring up the speedrunning-tranny dichotomy, but I lost my shit when I saw this. It was brought up in the Speedrunning community watch thread but it comes complete with five hilarious characters, thought I'd share it here and give it a proper post.

speedrun.com, the premiere place to host leaderboards in the hobby, is under new administration. They implemented a "pronoun" feature which is pretty much expected (begrudgingly) nowadays, but one thing these guys have been doing is featured articles on the side of the site. Last week, they were promoting black speedrunners - cool. This week, they ran an article on "Four women in Speedrunning". Awesome - this is a super male-dominated hobby so I can't wait to check out these four female speedrunners and show some support!

Now, it's 2021 of course, so I fully expect one of these lovely ladies to probably be trans. Just being realistic here - in a community famous for its trans demographic + they want to push an agenda of "trans women are women" means they will definitely put one TiM out of four in here. Let's take a look.

The first is named "t0uchan", and they give a link to their Twitch channel which itself hosts links to their social media.

The classic "I want to hear it from WOMEN that I'm pretty!"

Well, I fully expected a TiM in this list. I suppose they knocked it out on the first one so no one would complain. Who else is here? Surely, no more men on this list celebrating women, right?
Let's check out our second True and Honest Woman, amethyst_rocks:

Hmm, not my cup of tea, but "queer" doesn't automatically mean "trans"-

Spoiler: Oh.

The classic "Grandma's dress with lipstick that actually highlights the 5-o-clock shadow"

So far, 50% of the women in this article about women are men. So surely #3 will actually be a woman, right?

#3 is Lizstar, who was the person in the picture accompanying the news article. Lizstar is a name that I recognize!

The classic "hidey hairline".

Surely, SURELY that's it, right? 3/4 women on this list are men, so the last one should be a fucking woman. Don't tell me they couldn't find one fucking woman in this community.
Let's check out "ShesChardcore".

Well i certainly feel for you suffering with Parkinson's disease, and while he doesn't broadcast his trans status, he doesn't seem to be getting on too well with appearences.

That's one way to put it.

But you're kidding me. You run an article intending to highlight women in this heavily male-dominated hobby, and you don't feature a single fucking woman. Who wrote this article?
View attachment 2061147
Yup.

e: article archive

Same energy:


If I see "all-female" when it comes to areas like speedrunning, Reddit, Discord, and similar areas, I just automatically assume it actually means "troon".

 

[twee]

Oh ok now my three neurons left in my brain are finally engaged and I think I figured out the name thing, which makes it much worse than him just copying her name.

I'm assuming Junko Furuta was raped, tortured and murdered, then dumped in the sewers somewhere? Referring to her as Sewer Slut is just a misguided edgy way of raising awareness about violence against women, even though it just comes across as way over the line and in really bad taste?

The name Sewerslvt doesn't have a meaning as far as I know. Junko was encased in concrete in a barrel, so the Sewerslvt name isn't a connection to her.
Still in bad taste to use that as a pseudonym combined with all the other crap.
