When I first joined #Twitter, I genuinely enjoyed the restricted post length. It forced me to focus, and it became a creative game to re-organize my thoughts to fit in the character limit.
At the start of 2017, I pulled back from the site in a big way. Arguably an act of emotional self-care. The vitriol became too loud, and the UX changes buried what remaining content I actually wanted to read.
I read the limit is now 280. I don't think more characters will fix the issues that pushed me away.
lewd, reflections on sexuality, homophobia, transphobia, religion, nbphobia(?)
maybe I should ask them...
lewd, reflections on sexuality, homophobia, transphobia, religion, nbphobia(?)
(continued) until I finally realised that I wasn't ace a year or two ago, and now I'm sitting here thinking "man... I really wish I could have sex..."
but the only people I know right now are cisgender gay dudes (who either aren't interested in me or are chasers and can fuck off) and a few trans people, most of which I don't know well enough.
There's only one person who I could ask... and I don't know if I should...

it's weird that a few years ago I really didn't want to have sex ever because of dysphoria + 10 years of telling myself "I'm a good christian, and won't have extramarital sex"
combine this with realising I had same sex attraction to the same degree as "opposite" sex attraction, which I decided meant that I had to be asexual (a good christian wouldn't be gay...)
anyway the result is that I thought I was ace (cont.)
Copulas and Conlangs
one of the things I'm doing with dapiica is messing with the boundaries of copulas.
For example, many sentences that require a copula in english (for example "I am interested in fish") instead use a verb in dapiica ( 'kaniputomano', lit. "I fish-interested")
and in other places, the copula is actually a circumclitic: 'ŋiidapiica dacaponoba' "dapiica is a language", with ŋii- and -oba being the copula
On second thought I'm just going to upload it here because no one's ever going to click on a weasyl link
but if you want the version without the focal blur you have to click through
