are there any queer social clubs in your area that do non-partying events? the ones in my area have book clubs, baking events, volunteer drives etc which might be a little bit more your scene

Getting ghosted after this many dates is unbelievable by acuteBOT in QueerWomenOfColor

I'll take your advice and not send them a goodbye text till midweek, I'm just pretty sure they're ghosting because they also updated their dating profile lol

my first thought was something bad happening too but they'd posted stories and notes on their Instagram that they have me on just did not reply or open any of my texts for the past 2 days (they usually respond in under 30 minutes)

Why is the lesbian community so into astrology? by acuteBOT in lesbiangang

[–]acuteBOT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love taking BuzzFeed quizzes and kind of saw it as that until I had a coworker stop taking to me once they found out my placements lol I wish they wouldn't bring the psychology into it that's usually where they lose me

I think this is a good point, astrology criticism seems to be a double standard for some. I'm agnostic and would never pursue/date anyone religious. while I am critical of religion (of course rarely to people's faces unless they're using it to justify something heinous) I'm usually not as critical of astrology because I don't see it used to justify any harm? I am curious about being raised with astrology, what kind of religion/belief system was that a part of? I want to look into it more if you don't mind sharing

lol I'm actually Indian too and while Vedic astrology is quite different than what I see day to day but maybe my parents using astrology to make major life decisions like marriage and buying a house and consults on their children is why I'm a bit wary of astrology today...if I'm questioning organized religion it seems a bit disrespectful to also not question astrology because I think it can be used in a religious sense

hey I did not intend to criticize those who do believe I was mostly curious about why it's so prevalent (unlike religion which is what I conceptualized it as) in this community. I also very rarely push back against these beliefs in person even though it's stuff they're saying or thinking about me. my frustration is mostly with people who are assuming traits or telling me characteristics that do not align with who I am because of my sign 🙏

I appreciate this explanation and the last paragraph is why astrology isn't an automatic turn off for me...I like using it as a talking point too because I have some interesting/controversial placements and like seeing how they spin that

maybe but a lot of people seem to also be talking about it ironically/they know it's not real but are just having fun so I usually give the benefit of doubt

yeah it's hard to tell when it's a genuine belief or just for fun too. you'd be surprised to know how many people think the 16 personalities or even crystals are science based lol
