Just an ace girl in search of the perfect lip gloss.

The single biggest reason I feel no affinity with the 🏳️‍🌈 community is because from where I sit, queerness seems completely framed around being sexual. I’m ace. That’s not me.

You know where I feel more welcome? With the straights. They DGAF about my sex life or lack thereof.

So yeah, Happy Pride.
Pretty wild to me how the NYC campaign on BlueSky has boiled down to Mamdani vs Cuomo, as if no other options exist.

From "the only reason you don't like sex is you haven't slept with the right person yet" to "the only reason you don't like sex is you haven't take the right pill yet."

The nonstop gaslighting of ace folks is so frustrating.

Asking for a friend (really):
"any interesting historical events where people from fighting factions get stuck in a hostile area and have to work together (or with locals) to get out"

I can only think of Zone Troopers lol but in this case, looking for an historical example.

To be clear, this fucking sucks.
Another Black woman’s mentions are now full of white women accusing her of being anti-trans because apparently there is a contingent of white people on here who will not rest easy until every Black person on this site has passed a purity test administered by anonymous posters.

The surest sign that the Republicans are gleeful about the Biden issue is that they've shut up. They know we're imploding without any help from them.

Why the fuck are we falling for it?

Jesus fuck. I just saw the Discourse on demisexuals and most of it is seriously toxic.

Why do some folx have such a hate-on for anyone who isn’t hypersexual?

This is absolutely the correct approach and everyone screaming at Aaron is wrong
Let's clarify things since my mentions are turning into a dumpster fire. I'm responsible for designing T&S policies, systems, and processes that scale. One of those areas is spam, since as the network grows, so does disruptive spam. That's why you can't mass spam people in mentions or replies.

I wish everyone who wanted to have a career as an artist would first read up on the business side. I can't tell you how many times I see someone surprised by having to pay taxes on their Patreon or freelance work.

Yes, capitalism sucks, but knowledge is power. Learn the game and work the system.

Democrats should run ads showing border patrol busting through the door of a family’s home and hauling them out, Trump’s “poisoning the blood” lines playing over it, while the family screams, “But we’re American citizens!” because that’s exactly what’s going to happen if Trump wins.

Holy fucking shit. This is horrific.
“GPs in poorer areas of the country have reported a resurgence of Victorian diseases such as rickets and scurvy caused largely, they say, by nutritional deficiencies. NHS data shows that about 700 children a year are admitted to hospital with malnutrition, rickets or scurvy in England.”

Yikes.
OK, I went looking and found this recent article www.theguardian.com/business/202...

The single biggest reason I feel no affinity with the queer community is because from where I sit, it seems like hypersexuality is a lodestone for queer folk. And it leaves me feeling out of place.

a-spec people please quote this to tell your stories.
Society and media are so hypersexualised, it makes so many of us feel broken.
Humans are so beautifully varied. You're not broken. You're not wrong. You're YOU!
This is wonderful.

I spent over 10 years identifying as asexual. Only realised I'm demisexual in my mid 30s when I first fell in love.

Ace spectrum representation is sorely needed in the queer community.

Queer ≠ hypersexual

So ace people don’t belong here? That is a really shitty attitude.
We only want perverts (laudatory) on this website

Trying to not be judgmental about other people is really hard sometimes. I’m working on it. Not always successfully.

I’m an actual sex repusled asexual and even I think this is crap.

Use the content moderation filters, and don’t follow anyone with NSFW or 18+ in their bio. It works very well.
