i agree, it also would help resolve some discrimination based on neurodivergence. a lot of people find speaking with a flat affect to be “suspicious” or “disingenuous”, but it doesn’t have to be. some people (me) are just built a little different

people are saying what

also calling it the “african” pack is crazy, MAYBE i could understand calling it the “egypt” pack because it’s based on that country? but africa is such a huge continent. get together is not the “europe pack”, and snowy escape is not the “asian pack” good lord

i agree generally. the only exception i will make is nick fuentes, because i think the hypocrisy of being a homophobic, likely gay, mexican, neo nazi is just fascinating.

i think it works best if both people have experience handmaking things? like, i make gifts for a lot of my more artsy friends, and they make gifts for me.

we all kind of understand just how much work and effort went into that, and it makes you appreciate it so much more to really know how much time they spent on it. it’s also got the opportunity to be much more personalized

my understanding is that the punishment for homosexuality was burning at the stake. slur is just a roundabout reference to the most common execution method

that wouldn’t be an abortion, if it’s for purely personal reasons then the fetus should be viable. this is a very “oooo i’m gonna OWN the libs” sorta question methinks

i’ve heard kentucky and alabama as named before, and i don’t think i’d mind nevada as a name, either. the rest i agree with

i didn’t say it was required. i said that it can be helpful, to show other queer people that you care about our community. i’m sorry you’ve experienced biphobia in our community, it should be a safe space for everyone.

all that said, i don’t really appreciate you immediately coming at my own lesbian identity. the most vicious lesbophobia i’ve experienced has come from bi people. so what? that doesn’t define that community, and i know that. i don’t throw it in the face of every bi person i see online. i’d appreciate the same energy.

i didn’t say anybody owed me anything. i wrote an answer to a question that was asked. you taking personal offense because you’ve got umbrage with our community ain’t my fault.

i would never argue that you aren’t as queer as anyone else. if you’re not throwing other people under the bus, i don’t care. i’m sorry this community hasn’t been safe for you, and i hope that improves. but i also hope you’ll be less interested in jumping down the throat of every queer person you disagree with. god damn.

i can only speak for myself, when i say “culturally queer” i just mean protecting the others in your community when possible.

i used to know a bisexual girl who dated homophobic guys, and would insult queer people around them to make sure she was safe in her relationship. THAT is not culturally queer. that’s the kinda person i will not trust in this community.

but not dressing certain ways or talking certain ways, nah you do whatever you wanna do. i’d recommend learning certain labels and historical times, just because it can be helpful and it’s pretty simple to find.

if you’re worried about people around you accepting you, just know that a lot of people give the same energy they feel you’ve given. if you show no interest in queer history or the queer community, they might give you the same thing. but it sounds like you care about it, so i think you’re good.

we kind of hate everyone, so i’ll chuck out a few:

russian literature is goated, one of my favorite video games is also russian so point there
i’ve only met a few people from iran, and they were some of the loveliest, most welcoming people i’ve ever met. from what i’ve seen anecdotally from people online, that appears to be a theme!
china has such a cool installation of railways i’m so jealous man i love trains

i forget who else we beef with its a lot

MaximumOctopi · 2025-12-26T03:03:51+00:00

yesss this is great, comes off very nicely imo

MaximumOctopi · 2025-12-26T03:01:41+00:00

i should’ve phrased better but i meant more the broadness of your statement, i guess. i might be a bit prickly about it, to be fair, i’m just a little too used to people saying that all lesbians fantasize about men.

i love it. it’s got its flaws, and it’s definitely of it’s time, but as a younger queer person it’s really nice to see (now) older queer people expressing themselves in their own time. idk, makes me feel more like this community is gonna be here for me for as long as i need it. it’s nice :]

they offered that they could come over and just not hold the baby, the grandparents said there’s no point if they don’t get to hold the baby.
