You try to pull that "Back in 2019 it was a different time, who can say how they identified" and I'll come back as a black cat to eat your face

When I die, I'm going to haunt the shit out of anyone who misrepresents my gender, or who my ancestors were. It'll be some Shining, Amityville Horror, Poltergeist shit.

Misgender me? You're gonna see a weird doll crawling around your bedroom at 3 am.

Get my family wrong? Blood out the faucets.

Wikipedia's preference for "born to an [x] family", as if children of certain kinds of parents are delivered via stork, and are not necessarily of the the same ethnicity as the entire rest of their family.

I'm considering opening up a PixelFed account. Does anyone have instances to rec? I mostly post street photography, especially shots of graffiti and stickers.

Some people are born old.

There were kids in my middle school complaining about the 6th graders being too wild.

They probably grew up to be the assholes whining about all the other young people when they were in their mid-twenties.

I've been condescendingly lectured by 19 year old truscum who assumed I was a young teenager because I didn't subscribe to their conservative beliefs.

It's like hearing from that friend who has an on-again off-again relationship with a real loser, and they keep telling you about how their partner did a bad thing but they used to be so nice and they really think they can turn things around just dump them already

I [i]wish[/i] Contrapoints was cancelled.

I'm sick and tired of hearing "Contrapoints did this!" or "People are so horribly mean to Contrapoints!" when I don't watch her videos, nor have any friends who watch her videos.

Tbh, the fact that someone was trying to use the service to troll people with their clown fetish is the least weird thing about it

They also didn't get assigned to anyone specific. Whatever writer was available would respond as the messages came in. And there was lots of grousing in the forums, because clients would complain that their fake partner was saying things that were inconsistent, and the writer would get in trouble for not reading the message history.

It was a service like https://invisibleboyfriend.com/

Which I am providing as an example, because "company that offers fake boyfriends and girlfriends" sounds absolutely wild.

The people working on this project were the same ones writing articles for AskJeeves and shit. And they weren't allowed to get too dirty.

I used to be on a writing platform that hired out writers for other companies. One of the projects, which I was not involved in, was writing texts for a company offering people fake boyfriends and girlfriends. There was a client that had a clown fetish and the other workers would complain whenever they got him because he would try to have sexually provocative conversations. This was in 2011 or 2012, before clown fucking was on-trend.
