Sam reich having a trans women are pedos moment was not on my bingo for this year

[missstrogen]

Clarification

[um-jammer-tranny]

it was my entire bingo card, seriously. this is dropout, and sam, doing what it always has done

[knives-in-the-dishwater]

...please look up the slang word "nonse" (with an 's'), and consider whether "nonses" might make a bit more sense than "nonces" in the context of a list whose other items are "hardened gamblers", "addicts", and "sociopaths".

y'know, "hardened gamblers, addicts, sociopaths, fools" at a race, rather than "hardened gamblers, addicts, sociopaths, pedophiles".

[atelier-tamamoland]

let's put our critical thinking hats on and think really hard about what he meant when he brought up being called that by someone wearing makeup

[missstrogen]

According to a friend he might have said "nancies". Which would be better, but would also be the literal transmisogynistic slur that nonce comes from. So not great actually!

hi, i was the one who sourced the video in question, it's the teensyville video off no rolls barred; this was a callback bit from earlier in the video, where they had been specifically speaking about lewis carroll, using the term 'nonce'. there is no misunderstanding here; sam reich did, in fact, say that it is quite ironic for a man in heavy makeup to jest about nonces. it is unbelievable for so many people to try to bend over backwards to make excuses for such blatant transmisogyny

[irramdiated]

it's also particularly upsetting when put into further context!!!! the blood on the clocktower community (which is the game being played in the video) has been heavily praised by transfems in the community for the number of transfems who are prominent players. off the top of my head i can name at least 10 transfems on the botc channel's rotating cast, a far higher percentage than its tme trans roster (and i believe equivalent or close to their cisfem roster, but i don't have an exact count bc they don't keep a documented roster for their streams) not to mention other major channels in the space that feature several very notable transfems. ime its regularly noted how safe of a community has been fostered for transfem viewers and players.

i must, obligitarily, note: a higher amount of transfem cast members (or the presence of them, period) does not necessarily mean a completely safe environment for transfems, either viewers or cast members alike. but at the very least, it demonstrates a marked effort to platform and support trans women as valued community members. an effort which, notably, dropout tv has not bothered to make. nrb in specific, the channel this happened on, is one of the botc community channels striving to make this effort, with one of the key and beloved members in their botc series being mara joy (who is a trans woman, noted not to tokenize her in specific but to highlight her)!!

so, to lay it out more specifically, sam reich made this joke on a platform that is expected to be a safe space for transfem viewers. he was a guest star on a show which has far less social pull than dropout tv, was one of the only white cishet guys in the room, and took advantage of that. i cannot stress this enough: sam reich went to a community that has a general expectation of being a safe place for transfems, as a guest, likely for the purposes of promoting his latest kickstarter, and he used that platform to make a "joke" about transfems being pedophiles.

it was also directed towards a gay man, who, like… well, we all saw the clip, it's my opinion that he looks pretty genuinely uncomfortable for a moment before trying to hide it by playing it up for the camera. tbh i find it disappointing that said joke ended up in the final edit at all! but the fact that sam felt so comfortable dropping that kind of quip given the setting and the current overall climate is so frustrating and gross.

i don't know. i don't fucking know!! it's an uncomfortable joke in a vacuum and worse with context on all fronts.

If you live in Detroit, it is strongly recommended that you don't breathe.

As someone in WI, this whole region is awful so please be careful friends! (7/16/2026)

Please put on your N95s. The same ones used for covid will filter particulate pollution. I lived in a city with yearly winter pollution levels like this. If you can pay for it, you might as well get an indoor air filter to sleep in.

in a videos game the Jungle has a Temple which must be a biome specific natural structure and surely means nothing. most times it's abandonedTemple covered by Jungle Vegetation but sometimes, less so since the 90s but still around, youre gonna meet some human or at least humanoid people depicted in a cartoonishly obsolete culturally syncretic racism that surely cant be really racist, guys, theyre not pointing to a real culture plus the people of color that live around me aren't like that. those are Jungle People that live in Jungle and we all know that there's no real life people that live in Jungle
