the thing i like about the fediverse is how it's decentralised so no single company can exert massive power over the internet :)

sex isn't real but flirting may be

*white boy voice* I don't get the Rush song "Red Barchetta" . . . what's up with all the sci-fi elements? How's a song about driving a car exciting at all?

kiss her on the gay agenda

i'm really trying to stick with stuff i know with this bit tbh and it's getting hard to find stuff to painfully miss the point on for a joke

gonna use transhumanism to wire my prostate to a taser giving me an instant nut button

@muppetbutler am genuinely extremely relieved to know im not alone in feeling this way 💕

@Socks i really really like that visual of tending our own gardens while minimizing harm, thank u 💕💕

@pbandkate speaking as a person who also identifies as queer, iirc “gay” and “lesbian” had been slurs before as well, before being reclaimed by the community. You should of course do your best to minimize the trauma you inflict on others, but when it comes to your identity and how you navigate through the world, I feel like we each ought to tend our own garden.

@pbandkate Kate you're the best and this isn't my wheelhouse at all but I feel like you should be able to identify in whatever way makes you most comfortable

@pbandkate I kind of hate this discourse as someone who has been hearing it for years and years. I will not give up queer; there is no substitute for me. nothing else fits. nothing else so perfectly encapsulates non-hetero, non-cis, non-normative identity in one word. nothing! the best I can do is agree to avoid using it around company that objects to it but they will not stop me from using it as an identifier for myself because it is such a huge part of "me" by this point.

@pbandkate yes this is how I feel too...

having a really hard time here lately with the word queer. i know that it upsets a lot of people for very valid reasons and that for a lot of people it’s still a slur but..... it’s how i identify. it feels so much more right than “bi” or even “pan” and it took me so much time to feel confident enough to finally identify as queer and it felt so so good to start identifying as that and saying it and claiming that word. so to feel like i now shouldn’t be saying it is.. tough

whenever you define a system, you have also defined its negation. this has been known to cause problems
