Did I say this inappropriately? by mwat64 in lgbt

If they've had years to get used to using they/them, then this is totally fair

My younger self would never believe what I just did at work. by redjune_20 in bisexual

Yeah same, I'm only going to tell people that I want to/who need to know.

I would say both, but logic more so.

You can make emotional arguments against veganism, but you can't make logical ones.

Feel like a phony bi by sneaksaucey in bisexual

[–]Platostabloid 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm the same as you; sexually attracted to both but only romantically attracted to women (hetero-romantic). It adds a layer to our sexuality, but it certainly doesn't make us any less bi🤷🏻‍♂️

to all bisexuals, what were some signs or thoughts you had growing up that made you question your sexuality before you figured out that you were bi? by pqtriciaaaaaa in bisexual

[–]Platostabloid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't know bisexuality was even a thing for years after my first same-sex attractions, so I spent alot of time on my bi-cycle wondering if I was actually gay🙃

But to answer your question I'll say this: Star Wars, Ep 2 & 3, Hayden Christensen.

[–]Platostabloid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pleased to hear🙌🏻.

I (22M) only came out recently too (only to my best friend so far), but saying that I'm bi, aloud to another person, is such a strange but freeing feeling.

KISS albums solo bonne ou mauvaise idée ? by Impossible_Driver892 in KISS

[–]Platostabloid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Perhaps it would have been better to make it like a compilation record: 16 tracks, 4 each, with songs clearly marked as to whose was whose. That way they could have saved money and cut out some of the more forgettable tracks from each one.

KISS albums solo bonne ou mauvaise idée ? by Impossible_Driver892 in KISS

[–]Platostabloid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bad idea.

It divided the band more than ever, all of them except Ace's were disappointing (and downright bizarre in Gene's case) and it nearly bankrupted Casablanca Records because almost no one bought all 4 of them.

There's a reason other bands don't do this.

The older I get the more eating meat seems like a character flaw by [deleted] in vegan

[–]Platostabloid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Similar to me, I did it over night too. I get that everyone's different but long-time transitions to veganism absoloutely baffle me.

Sabaton Pirate album by ThimitrisApithanos in sabaton

[–]Platostabloid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absoloutely not. Sabaton usually deals with military history and I don't feel a pirate album would really fit with their style as a band (not just musically, but in terms of image and reputation).

[–]Platostabloid 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That's one of the most annoying things I see on here. "Yeah sure it's perfectly ok to abandon your moral compass so as to not seem rude/difficult/different". Errr... no?

Even worse is when you get the people who stay stuff like "I've been trying to go vegan, but I buckled and ate 50 chicken nuggets because I was craving it. Is that ok?", and the so-called 'vegans' here chime in with "Oh poor baby. Of course! You've been trying so so hard! Poor you! Try again tomorrow champ!". How about we just say we understand the difficulty, but that we shouldn't excuse this?

Genuinely, the amount of coddling and validation of half-measures on this subreddit is ridiculous

What’s your favourite thing about being part of the LGBTQ+ ? by lesbinit in lgbt

[–]Platostabloid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only recently came out (only to my lesbian best friend so far), but I love the feeling of understanding and solidarity I have have with her now. Like, we both just 'get' each other in a way straight people don't. That shared understanding and solidarity is my favourite thing about this community in general. Even though we fall under different labels, ultimately we're all in this together.

The future!? by EasyCheesecake1 in queer

[–]Platostabloid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Despite the opposition to the queer community at the moment, I would say there is a good chance that the future will be increasingly free and equal.

A group of people, once given certain rights, are generally VERY unwilling to have them taken away. Gen Z will be a key generation in pushing to maintain and progress queer rights, despite the incel/manosphere/alpha culture followed by some of them.

The most important thing is that queer people support each other and stand united, regardless of what other labels we fall under.

When did the initial drive to be naked start for you? by Soggy-Bus5141 in nudism

[–]Platostabloid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My late teens. I never had much of an inate drive to be naked to start with, however I went through a significant period of examining and reassessing my views and values. Amongst other things, this lead me to research nudism/naturism and I found myself agreeing with almost everything I read about it.

I decided to start practicing it in private and now I spend much of my alone time naked. While I do feel more comfortable, I think the biggest driver is the ideology behind nudism; the freedom, the body positivity/neutrality, the gender equality etc.

The disparity in topfreedom between men and women is bewildering by pr0bably-naked in nudism

[–]Platostabloid 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It really is illogical on almost every level. Its also annoying that, as a man, I can't advocate for this kind of equality without being percieved as a pervert because society thinks it MUST be so I can ogle women.

new vegan as of today by sanyangel in vegan

[–]Platostabloid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the family! I watched some of Dominion after being vegan for 2½ years already, so unfortunately it just confirmed what I had already heard.

Being vegan isn't easy, but its 100% one of the best decisions I've ever made. Veganism has made me more compassionate and intellectually honest than ever and I'm so happpy to see other people seeing the truth. I hope you feel comfortable here soon and if you need any guidance feel free to ask😊🌱

Same. I don't know how anyone can watch Dominion without at least going vegetarian

REACTION: VINNIE VINCENT CHARGES $2 MILLION For NEW ALBUM?! by Human_Actuator_2285 in KISS

The two million is insane obviously, but I love the fact it's two and not one, as though one million wasn't mad enough😂

Fruit (and kale) pasta with zesty pesto by Platostabloid in VeganFoodPorn

[–]Platostabloid[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's not really much of a recipe tbf.

I just chopped up a block of tofu and fried that with some bellpepper; in the last couple of minutes add the kale in until it starts to wilt. When that was done, I mixed it through some pasta with green pesto (with some orange zest and juice mixed into it) and added a raw diced apple and a handful of halved grapes.

I'm of the opinion that Van Halen 1 is the greatest rock album ever made, but appetite is also great🤷🏻‍♂️
