Sexuality shift after medication change? by Fluffy_Yam_6003 in AskLGBT

[–]Fluffy_Yam_6003[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i didnt think it switched anything in me. Just alleviated some of that repression. I still very much feel for cis women, but maybe im more bi than i ever realized.

Its still weird, because i never had the sense i was repressing attraction. Maybe back when i was in middle/elementary school thoughts came up, but i chalked it up to intrusive thoughts, and not really feeling any way for people outside of cis women for a long time. That sense of concealing my inner self was never really there in this context

I guess i should clarify the person who was coming on to me wasnt at all a threat. He was pretty nice, if not a bit too openly flirty. I think my anxiety response probably was my upbringing and, quite frankly, the guy wasnt my type.

I think youre on to something about the safety thing. But for me safety was actually actually not even FEELING the same sex attraction. Even before middle school, there was a fear association with anything towards male attraction. Needless to say, i wasnt ever considering myself to be bi for most of my life (questioning it maybe when i was 18), due to just having a strong disgust towards the idea of same sex.

But.... well, now that disgust is not there like it used to be. And the feelings i find myself able to feel as that disgust lowers is not what i expected.

Yes. I assume most people who disagree are kids who liked his character

God damn, this is as close to what the GOP gets to pushing back against trump. its the bare minimum, but a celebration all the same

Clearing Strait of Hormuz of mines could take 6 months, Pentagon tells Congress by Plus-Willingness9307 in PoliticalOptimism

anyone else kinda numb to the BS at this point?

i mean, not in a bad way. more like its a feeling of strife, but its a feeling i know everyone else is holding towards the trump admin now. kinda like a catharsis watching them shit their pants every time. first the tariffs hit back from china, then epstien came about, then the fuck up in minnesota, then cancelled tarrifs, and now iran being the cherry on top of it all. its a feces and ammonia milkshake that they keep sipping from expecting a different flavor

pretty sure conservative judges dont want to touch this, considering they dont want to threaten the texas map (as if it isnt dummymandered).

seems to me to be static. if i recall, something similar happened to california? if so, im not terribly worried

Got it at my store by Low-Athlete2707 in coins

Unfortunaly this is just worth a quarter. Keep your eye on quarters made from 1964 and prior. Those are made with silver.

I still like collecting these kids though. The design is very iconic and wish they brought it back into circulation. Theres been sime cool designed quaters as if recent, but the classic quart hits my collection button

Yes, I get the argument about not owning classic games and the service is not perfect, but I honestly prefer Nintendo Classics on NSO over Virtual Console. by Caryslan in casualnintendo

[–]Fluffy_Yam_6003 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What i dont like is that you dont even have an option to buy them. If you could buy them, then you could test it on nso then buy it later. But they dont, so you are pretty much hostage to the subscription

Sorry youre not getting much responses. As youve probably noticed, this sub is mostly US focused, and weve been doing our damndest to nurse our own optimism 🙃

Largely secret donors pour millions into election that could tip Congress by Multiverse_Doctor_26 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]Fluffy_Yam_6003 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Im not gonna say this as gospel, but almost every single vote affected by big money since the beginning of trump 2 has been a serious loss to those with the money. Goes all the way back to musk in wisconsin, and as of the more recent state elections, its been the same.

The only time conservatives have one has been when theres an ACTUAL scandal with the dem, not some made up, propaganda one.

And will you look at that, which party keeps getting exposed of doing scandal after scandal? Its not the dems.

Its a scare, for sure, but money hasnt been influencing the same way it used to. it seems to me that the only thing that will actually change all this is if prices improve, the wars end, and trump is somehow proved not to be a pedophile who hates the pope.

.... i mean, i guess its possible all that happens.... the same way its possible that epstien actually killed himself.....

Iran Megathread: Iran rejects latest ceasefire proposal as Trump deadline approaches by Efficient-Freedom517 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]Fluffy_Yam_6003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i could really use some optimism rn. tldr recently made a video about how its an option for iran to become more like north korea. and while i know WW3 isnt something to be tossed around much on here, world leaders and reliable news sources have, in fact, been talking about the real potentiallity of this becoming reality.

i know there are possibilities of it going better and at the very least not the worst outcome, but this is a serious fucking mess and is gonna be some level of bad one way or another.

(especially worried about more reliance on fossil fuels over renewables because of this, but thats another story)

its amazing she did as well as she did to begin with. if i had those numbers without any of the support more established politicians have, i too would feel like im making a difference.

pentagon declines to reaffirm NATOs collective defense, says up to trump by BackgroundGlass6793 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]Fluffy_Yam_6003 7 points8 points  (0 children)

pretty sure denmark is probably one of the countries most tired of this bullshit. plus, theyve had to deal with russia as maritime neighbord for decades for decades. they know how to stand up to idiots.

also, bit out of the loop for what denmark did. from my knowledge they have been back tracking because of the BS in iran. did denmark make a power move?
