something cool about queering your idea of sex is that you can walk out of a heavy make out session feeling like you had the rawest sex of your life. you can be sitting close at a bar kissing them and maybe you’ve found a way to sit so your knee is discreetly between their thighs and feeling the pleasure it gives them and then feeling them give that pleasure to you. you can be looking each other in the eye and you can feel them inside you from that alone. like you want to tear their clothes off and are hungry for the feeling of their skin and their closeness but even just this feels like heaven, feels connected to them in the deep place where pleasure comes from.

a list of things that are sex if you’re gay enough about it and you want it to be:

• feeling their desirous gaze on you while you put in drink orders at the bar
• holding hands on the way home from the date and it feels like a foreshadowing of what you’re going to do to each other when you get there
• heavy breathing on the phone when they’re touching themself to the sound of your voice
• grinding in a weird position where you’re both like ??? why does this feel so good???
• literally just eye contact

• “When I was a dominatrix, I once rubbed balloons all over a man for seventy-five dollars. He would’ve called it sex. I would’ve called it work. It was mutually consensual, and I think we were both correct in our assessment.

If your sex is balloons, if it is blowing raspberries on your lover’s belly, if it happens fully clothed ir in furry costumes, if it happens in a group or alone — give it the same gravity, the same reverence or irreverence as all the tiresome scenes of heterosexual penetration we all grew up reading. … There is no marginal erotic unless you sideline it.”

Just thought this belonged here 😊

Nothing screams unseriousness quite like peddling the idea of “leaderless” organisation.

Lol. Lmao even

people ask me if i am a drag queen i tell em that i’ve never been into royalty that’s why i’m up in the pub yellin fuck an MP brits out of ireland, palestine free if i had to choose i’d be a drag peasant organizing a rebellion no time like the present i got glitter in my hair, pitchfork in the air comin for those mainstream fuckers i swear https://evangreer.bandcamp.com/track/assimilation-feat-bells-roar-2 💖❤️‍🔥🏳️‍⚧️🧱

dropped my (small time, mostly contracting, never “Faang” corpo) tech career > decade ago now. Spent a few years out of all previous social institutions just reconditioning myself outside their domestication. Got my soul healed up some with good folks, community theory and art. Healed enough to get into social work, now im helping out at a group home so less cops are hopefully needed.

Fuck this empire and its cultural vacuum. Our revenge will be the laughter of liberated future generartions of our queer and other marginalized diaaporas.

These networks end up functioning as recruitment hubs, where young people − especially boys − are lured in by edgy memes

it has everything to do with that ^

and nothing to do with “constantly” saying men are trash.

Seriously, is this “man hating dyke” “MiSANdRiSt trans woman” in the room with us right now?

The fuckin ratio of Online Rightwing Recruitment to Real Existing “all-men-are-are-trash-sayer” isnt even close.

You’re getting angry at bots, rare arguments promoted to top of social feeds and/or State and non-state actor troll farms.

You’re really trumping up your numbers to victim blame that hard.

(This is not an invitation to debate, Ima go live my life)

AI slop: not even once

fyi it was as easy as youtube (newpipe) search copy-and-paste title up to ‘…transphobic’ and it was easy to find in the first few results.

well worth the time :) hopin the narration isnt fkn llm

Death Penalty has no justification. Expand your mind past the recitivist police state mentality before you get us all killed starting with the most marginalized kthx and byyeeeee

gettt ratio’d you know not about what you speak

nope. nope nope nope! Fuck this. I wanna go back to 2002 with Cortana whispering in my ear about fleet chatter and being optimistic.

That’s not the world that unfurled though, and LLM’s are not AI.

This marketing hype regurgitation machine “learning” can all go eat shit. All of it. Soooo done with the simps saying “oh but this application of the tech totally justifies burning down forests and guzzling water and power and totally wasnt trained on stolen, socially prejudice datasets”

Fuck that noise and while we’re at it I’m entirely turned off by AAA media trends and current gen hardware too. Don’t @ me, fuck a smartphone I’ve got a DS.

game graphics and design peaked in 2008. N64 was more optimized than anything that came after. Im so over current gen, and last gen and the gen before that too. Let it all burn. :)

I like the ones that dont sleep on 2-spirit folks when it comes to those of us on turtle island. Solidarity with the struggle to preserve Indigenous folk’s cultures is of paramount importance to the struggle for Liberty Of and-or-From Gender and Sexuality

yooooo what client lets you do that?

nah

thanks for sayin this bc decade ago now had a woman i was dating try and blame me for not wanting to be going steady by doing this type of thing…young autistic me had no words to convey the audhd hyperfocus and poly tendencies I was feeling so misunderstood about.

cis dude i know has the daintiest, high-pitch low volume sneezes. He’s a good dad and male role model

we dont choose our traits, but TV/social media sure as fuck has curated a very specific box which we all should ‘supposedly’ fit in.

Convinient for a certain few who profit from marketing to a particular over-catered-to demographic, no?

lmao refusing to drink your technocratic poor excuse for “utopian” vision does not make one a doomer

idc if you watch it. this is me not granting you the engagement

Capitalism is merely a child of heirarchal domination. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1ZK2-viyAo

Real shit im glad you’re able to find a few diamonds in the rough – BUT from the fashy techbros you mentioned to Corpo wide mainstream forcefeeding it, absolutely a net negative.

Truly, I love new tech. Always have. I wanna love AI…but as things stand I come to the inevitable conclusion that it is tossing gas on the fires that are the climate crisis, on social and economic inequity and so, sweet summer child soooo much more. I’m far from a doomer. Pull your head out your ass.

“bruh”

eat a block troll :)

whatever way you slice it, “AI” at this point in time is a gross waste of precious resources and betrays the utter contempt of the Other and the Worker that the Owning class harbors.

its really not a “whole new class” of doing things. Save for a gimmick for improv troops to do a one-off, in practice it ammounts to “Why pay for workers when you can automate machines to pass off an unreliable result as a substitute and then send disatisfied customers into support line limbo” devaluing the labor while offering a “platinum plan” to wealthy clients willing to be extorted to talk with a human from your business.

STEM examples? Maybe – but be real that’s not the majority of whats wrong, and even if it is, it’s models trained on socially prejudiced data sets

too much assumptions.
