Sorry, Peri. I can't make it.

i feel so defensive and protective of people with ARFID like if i had a disorder that made my brain register 90% of food as poison for no reason and i had a bazillion people on the internet constantly calling me a manchild who needs to just grow up and stop being a picky eater i would start killing people

people with ARFID and people with very few autism safe foods and people with contamination OCD and people in ED recovery and everyone else with a complicated relationship with food that no one takes seriously GET BEHIND ME!!!!!!!

we desperately need sex 2

i just know someone's going to mention kink. girl that's still sex 1. we had to invent BDSM cause we didn't have sex 2. tis but a pale reflection. but it's coming

kink reaches mayyybe like sex 1.3 if it hits just right

when sex 2 comes out what sorts of quality of life updates will be included to help draw in people who never really got into sex 1

more pleasurable. more intellectually stimulating. higher skill ceiling. more dynamic metagame. optionally more mental-emotional alignment between parties. less cleanup. more intuitive. more variety in sensation and activity to match diverse sensory tendencies. smoother integration with parties' coupled emotional processing. and so on

no offense to positivity but i love holding grudges and i’m not going to forget about someone who hurt me

will you guys cancel me if i say that queer tragedy has a place in the creative arts and shouldn’t immediately be dismissed as bury your gays

Sometimes, in history, and in real life: GAYS. WERE. BURIED. Don't avoid queer media written and created by queer people to tell their stories of tragic times, be they based in reality or completely fictional. There are lots of great and important media about the AIDS epidemic created by gay people (Longtime Companion, 1989; Buddies, 1985; Parting Glances, 1986) or powerfully human movies with gay bashing (Torch Song Trilogy, 1988) or gay suicide (Victim, 1961), and to reduce these to "Bury Your Gays" or "Queer Tragedy" without actually engaging with the ideas presented or the importance of the events, characters, or history is such a cowardly thing to do. Dismissing queer tragedy in media means you will always assume that queer media started in the 1990s, because you will not seek what people were able to produce and put out before that because it may make you uncomfortable. Advise and Consent from 1962 where a senator with a homosexual past is blackmailed. Winter Kept Us Warm from 1965 - a Canadian movie about two university dormmates who have feelings for each other that they cannot fully understand, where there is no happy ending. As the tags above say - it's about what the purpose is going in. Whose story is it. What is it saying. Are these victims fully fleshed out humans? Who wrote the movie? What does the tragedy and misery say about these people and about the time? The class and race of the people involved?

idea: scene with two characters eagerly stripping each other clearly about to bone, but they keep getting interrupted by finding carefully concealed weapons in each other’s clothing, so they keep just unholstering, revealing and unstrapping increasingly ludicrous amounts of hidden guns and knives as the clothes come off, and it’s lowkey killing the mood a little

Alternatively: it's not killing the mood at all but it's totally making both of them giggle like they're twelve and possibly get lowkey competitive in a subconscious way about who has the most to drop.

...Oh

It’s not that there’s already a bunch of weapons hidden underneath the sink that makes it awkward so much as that there’s so many weapons hidden underneath the sink that they fall out of the cabinet with the unmistakable sound of a knife-alanche, and then the other person comes in like “I can explain!” and you’re just dead-ass standing there with your own armload of weapons like “I can also explain.”

Married version is shoving your hand in your partner’s clothes when you’re out of weapons because you KNOW where their spare is.  Or wearing a weapon in a spot you can’t draw from yourself because its now spare storage for your spouse’s weapons.

Every single one of you is a genius

I must not kill myself killing myself is the myself killer . Dune

okay im gonna hypnotize you with my ruby amulet now DONT BE WEIRD ABOUT IT. im doing this to make you betray the king. IT IS NOT A SEX THING

I think the fact that you immediately thought about clarifying it’s not a sex thing kinda makes it sound like it is a sex thing.

FOOL. i would be using my sex amulet for that

a moment of silence for my roommate who has to endure me doing linguistics homework. out loud. making sounds with parts of my mouth and throat I didn’t even realise I could use to make sounds. repeatedly and with passion

i think the moment of silence needs to come directly from you on this one
