Doesn't work if the NPC is female tho

Markdown formatting, \ is often used as what is called an escape sequence. I don't knew the rules for lemmy's markdown, just remember to add 2 \'s

with the shrug emoticon you have to use 3

the underscore is used for text formatting so you have to escape it and the back slash

2 ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

3 ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Oh dear. In my client, Connect, the 2 slash version looks right and the 3 slash version has a doubled arm. I suspect it's not rendering markdown correctly.

Lemme try:

¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Okay idk how to describe this, but those two text strings above are seemingly identical in plain text, but one renders correctly, the other incorrectly in my client. I feel like I'm being gaslit.

Liftoff here, 2 is the right number... except in some comments where 3 works too unless it doesn't 🤷

2 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (second italics escaped)

2 ¯\(ツ)/¯ - unescaped ITALICS

32 20 c2 af [5c 5c] 5f 28 e3 83 84 29 5f 2f c2 af 0a

3 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (first italics escaped)

33 20 c2 af [5c 5c] [5c 5f] 28 e3 83 84 29 5f 2f c2 af 0a

3 ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ - doubled

33 20 c2 af [e2 81 a0] [5c 5c] 5c [e2 81 a0] 5f [e2 81 a0] 28 [e2 81 a0] e3 83 84 [e2 81 a0] 29 [e2 81 a0] 5f [e2 81 a0] 2f [e2 81 a0] c2 af 0a

Ah, so there's a non-printing character in there. It's weird that the person making a demo to explain it made that mistake.

Here you go, this is how to make it appear properly in markdown: ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯

It will appear as this when you paste it: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh my bad, I keep forgetting how differently the fediverse can look in different instances!

It's often used to escape a character that would otherwise be interpreted as code. So you should be able to use two in a row to escape the escape. \

Could you finish this statement, if possible? Trans woman are ______

Now I would recommend taking great care in how you answer. Some consideration of what instance you're on would probably also help.

Trans women are wonderful and accepted parts of our society! Trans women sometimes have penises and that makes us twinsies because I have a penis too! Trans women are humans usually except for the aliens pretending to be humans and sometimes posing as Trans women!

There I finished it for you! Couldn't help meself

Genital attraction is a thing, and I'm fine with some women being attracted to vaginas at the exclusion of penises. Believe it or not, we used to call those women lesbians. I don't think we have a name for it anymore, which is a bit odd.

I'm sure your circular logic is able to neatly erase these people, but the equivalent erasure of gay men's genital preferences doesn't seem to occur with the same frequency. Again, this is a bit odd.

that's because transphobes tend to forget about trans men, and so they don't need as much defending.

Believe it or not, we used to call those women lesbians.

and we still do, it is only you dirty transphobes who refuse to acknowledge that trans women are women, and that you reducing your partner to their genitelia is both gross and misogynistic (you can have your preferences without oppressing others like the rest of us, you just have to not be a hateful bitch)

So I say again: transphobe - ✨be gone!!!✨
