Lots of people try to evaluate the validity of non-monogamy by looking at the set of people who have *tried non-monogamy* This seems kind of silly to me. It feels like evaluating lesbianism by looking at the set of all girls who have kissed another girl ... in a world where lots

I think it's very cool when people publicly share their beliefs, receive persuasive counterarguments, express appreciation for those counterarguments, and then share their updated beliefs Greatly raises my respect for them

Apparently I find Twitter easier than texting. I've been exhausted for the last 18h — in a state where replying to DMs feels hard, but Twitter is doable I guess it seems to require less concentration

They should let me have a go at being a cis man. I think I'd do a pretty good job. Zach Woods would be ideal but I'd be happy to take a turn as any of you

I've been rewatching HBO's Silicon Valley. I keep thinking "ugh I wanna be a boy" Partly bc the show reminds me of when I was studying CS and working in tech. My college major was 90% male Watching this show — I just keep thinking about how I'd never be able to "fit in" at

I don't relate to gifted kid narratives. I was homeschooled, with parents that kept me isolated, so I didn't understand that I was that smart, and I didn't develop high expectations for life When I was exposed to the real world, I started encountering bewildering circumstances

For some reason, people take me seriously. Even when I'm in demographics that usually *aren't* taken seriously I was offered various well-paid jobs as a teen (several without applying) I didn't feel insufficiently taken-seriously as a young woman working with older men I'm

Do you enjoy maintaining platonic friendships with your exes? Are you poly / monog?

what is your gender? | do you give more attention than you receive, or do you receive more attention than you give?

Results! 64% of monog ppl, and 91% of poly ppl, like to be friends with their exes (I do not expect this is a representative sample for monog ppl. Seems more likely it's representative for poly ppl) Polyamory tends to involve dating more ppl and thus accumulating more exes.

Cheer me up by letting me review the pictures in your dating profile or your profile picture (I often have thoughts on the photos people choose for their pfp, but I avoid offering unsolicited feedback)

This was fun! It resulted in a LOT of little conversations (especially over DM). My phone is full of beep beeps Lmk if I missed you

I liked a lot about The Four Seasons (a new show on Netflix with Tina Fey and Steve Carrell). I was surprised to find that it positively depicted marriage AND non-monogamy The show follows a few middle-aged married couples who have been friends for a long time. One of those

a delicious peach, delivered by a friend

I realized I was attracted to women in a context where my peers were fairly anti-gay They said being gay was a sin and gay marriage should not be legalized I was very socially isolated before this, and so I didn't know how to infer which of my peers were pro-gay liberals

In the past, some ppl have assumed I am autistic. Some have been insistent, not believing me when I say I'm not I do find myself in communities where ppl bond over being slightly autistic. But I feel like I connect with these ppl in spite of their autism, rather than because of

I haven't posted about chronic illness recently. So! If you're new, here's my deal I have moderate/severe ME/CFS. I've had ME/CFS since 2019, and has pretty much defined my life since then I'm pretty housebound lately (hoping this gets better again before the end of the year).

When I was 12 my online friend sent me some explicit Sonic x Shadow slashfic she liked but I was too afraid to read it
