  • In short: Femboy is about presenting as a very feminine man, men doing that can include trans men.

    Slightly longer: It’s why there are different categories for sex, gender assigned at birth, gender identity and gender expression. A femboy would identify male and express feminine. The opposite is a tomboy, somebody who identifies as female and expresses in a masculine manner, both are not necessarily linked to the individuals sex and/or gender assigned at birth.

    Trans refers to a different gender identity than the gender assigned at birth and doesn’t come into play here.


  • Twix was called Raider in many european countries, above all all german speaking countries, don’t ask me why. When they got renamed to Twix in 1991 about 70% of all countries that offered the bar already called it Twix.

    The renaming happened with the slogan “Raider heißt jetzt Twix, … sonst ändert sich nix” broadly “Raider is now called Twix, … nothing else changes”

    The Slogan ofcourse was used by many german speaking comedians and satirists when it came to Twitter… “Twitter heißt jetzt X, … sonst ändert sich nix.”, with the added bonus that a lot changed, for the worse, underlining Muskian lies.


















  • Love to see those carbon steel pans, but eggboy has overloaded them with oil.

    Those pans are naturally non-stick and you only need a bit of oil in them for a good fry and to keep the non-stickyness. That much oil can make them tacky and will make the eggs crunchy and dry insted of giving them that tasty pan-fried surface finish.
