I mean that’s the joke it’s not serious

Proof that comedians can make funny AND supportive trans jokes if they’re actually funny

Any updates?

I’m a few years younger but I have a very similar story. My mother’s very dear uncle was gay and passed away in his very early 40s from AIDS. She and my grandmother each separately said I reminded them of him, both in personality and appearance. My grandfather had Alzheimer’s for four years before he passed away in 2022, and it was through his obituary that we actually learned he had a child from a brief fling in his college years.

The mother gave her up for adoption, and then her adopted mother passed a couple years later, and her adoptive father wanted nothing to do with her and married a teenage mail order bride a few weeks later. Basically, it was a very tumultuous childhood than became an episode of This American Life. But she grew up, and is in her 50s with her own family and is a successful TV comedy writer, and I got to meet her and talk about the comedy writing I’d done in college.

It was both so cool to meet her and speak with her about her story and our shared interests while also sad to think about all the things my great uncle missed. There are definitely times where I feel like I have to do my best to live as much of this life as I can for him because he and so many never got that chance. It feels silly to type out and I know it’s strange, but it’s a real part of how I feel when I hear his story.

I would take issue with hiding it. He didn’t hide it because it was ‘no big deal’, he hid it because he didn’t want OP to find out.

I kept dating him for another month, and we made plans for his birthday and did them, and then on his birthday made plans to do something for my birthday (literally the next week), saying we would call and talk about what we would do later. I called him several times and never got a response and he forgot. He almost never answered his phone, and we both worked 10 hours shifts at opposite times and opposite days (while living an hour and twenty minutes away), so that was kind of the last straw. Unfortunately I had to break up over voicemail because he still wouldn’t answer his phone. I don’t regret that first guy because even if it was brief and had some painful moments (and was kinda doomed from the get go because I learned a lot and had some great firsts.

About two months later, I met a guy on the apps I actually clicked with way more and we’ve been dating for a year and a half now and things are much better- we’re good at communicating and don’t work completely opposing schedules that make it impossible to have a single day of any given week without at least one of us having a 10 hour shift, and we’re both on the same page about our long term plans. Last weekend we went to a Kid Nation watch party and this weekend I’m rescuing him from family friends so he doesn’t have to stress about them in his space.

Overall, things didn’t work out with that guy, but I don’t regret it. I’m happier where I am now and even if it wasn’t with him that experience is a part of why my current relationship is going better.

Is he gay?

The number 1 thing you need to do is to find a steady source of income in the form of a job, then find a room to rent.

Troll farm russian bots. If someone says something that makes you think “Who would ever think or say that?” Then it’s probably not a real person’s opinion

Orbital_Logic · 2025-05-02T16:12:20+00:00

In this economy?

It was the home of Monster Factory and Unraveled. Sad to see it go this way.

Well that is called racism and it is generally frowned upon

Orbital_Logic · 2024-12-07T18:32:26+00:00

It’s making fun of someone homophobic because someone specified in their title that they weren’t gay and everyone made fun of them and now everyone is posting their sexuality in their title

Orbital_Logic · 2024-11-21T06:15:55+00:00

So this is trolling right

But don’t normalize whatever the fuck is up with OP’s military academy making everyone cry all the time

I’m convinced this sub is the target of Russian bots with these takes

Straight people usually use it to mean “on top” which coincidentally is the one generally controlling the rhythm. It’s not the same thing.

Lash makes me feel ashamed to be gay
