    So with local elections apparently being in a few months time according the poll card. News to me.

    And apparently, ID is now required. In a country that doesn't actually do ID cards, unacceptable infringement of liberty and all. So they've given us this long list of acceptable ID. Some make sense, passports and drivers licenses. Actuwl government issued ID. Others...I have many questions as to why they've decided these are acceptable. Old age concessionary bus pass? Disabled parking permit? And lol if they genuinely think councils actually do any ID checking on those things. I'm fairly sure the disabled concessionary bus pass I once applied for from local council did zero ID check and just issued it out with a photo and a misspelt name.

    Supposedly, if you don't have any of this ID, you can free ID from the local council. Which the polling card helpfully tells me, is available to do 9am-1pm Monday to Friday.

    ...this, could be an absolute shitshow.

    Also, really at the "we have ended rough sleeping in this town" on the electoral pamphlet. No you haven't, I passed three on the way back this evening.

    The present is baffling. If time extends infinitely in the past, how did we ever get to the present? Or why did what's happening now not happen 5 years ago? If time itself had a beginning (the word beginning seems to presuppose time) why didn't it begin earlier or later than it did? It seems to be a paradox. Maybe we're in a causal loop.

    PragerU lol:

    Men should not wear women's clothing.
    They tweeted this same thing out a few months ago and were bombarded with pictures of cute femboys in the replies. It's impossible for them to deny that this time they knew exactly what they were doing.
    Everytime they do this they encourage more and more men to do it. I'm guessing the people running the account are sadists who care less about material results and more about annoying people. Oh well the end result works for me.

    It's either that or they genuinely want their responses flooded with pictures of guys wearing feminine/female clothing.

    lol Kellie Jay Keen complaining about counter protestors 'there's no democratic right to be able to speak' you are in a public space lol.... And you're not even a citizen of Australia for better or worse it's technically a privilege that you're even there right now, not a right. Someone set her video to clown music lol but I was actually skimming through her upload but not linking it.

    https://twitter.com/SpillerOfTea/sta...24701179338752

    "Absolutely disgusting that a handful of counterprotestors showed up with signs."

    Lol OK. There's a police officer standing near them too.

    'Why don't you just go home'

    'This is the worst place I've ever been. I've been to Chicago.'

    Oh shut the [BEEP] up Karen lol. She's really loosing the plot. 'I never lose.' Tell that to your mind. Is that just her catch phrase now lol? The amount of Karen-quotes in such a short space of time lol. She's always doing this it's cartoonish.

    'I thought Scotland was bad?'
    Feel like we need to up our game tbh. Can't be letting her have a worse time somewhere else.
    I'm so glad I live somewhere she'd never show up to as a Karen lol. One of few perks perhaps lol.

    A protestor who flew here from another country based on the infamy was asked to stop doing what they were doing for their own safety personally I thought they should have kept on and didn't disagree as troll-ish as it was. There probably was more to it than that too though given their general tactics at protests was to try and get images of minority groups being angry. She later got banned from the UK lol. I think Karen here would be too scared to do the same. If she stood up and started yelling about trans people that would be fine though. She'd probably get a bunch of the same people coming out in support!

    KJK: 'Let women speak!'

    Hundreds of women: 'You suck. We support trans people.'

    KJK: 'Shut up, you twats! I have a house! A big house! With no mortgage! Groomers! Paedophiles! I can't believe the police are allowing this when my house is so big and so unmortgaged!?

    #Feminism
    If you haven't seen the videos, you might think I'm exaggerating this as some kind of dunk, but it's a frighteningly accurate representation of her latest public meltdown.
    It's a frighteningly accurate representation of all her public meltdowns man, she's something else. (they are direct quoting her too lol.) She hates it when she sees a lot of women or genetic female people opposing her. Her original biggest meltdown on video was about women who she said she was going to annihilate.

    https://twitter.com/pickle_bee/statu...87105144578051

    'Men don't have to march upon our necks they get women to do it.'

    'Each and everyone of you women who stand in my way, each and every one of you, let me just tell you. You will be annihilated.'

    I think she's really inspired them lol. I'd love for her to expand on that point. She also appealed to men to show up to women's toilets armed in the US, and keeps ranting about the police not protecting her in the Australia clip, so I don't think she's going to be 'taking anyone' herself.

    Just saw someone say that the reason people don't like Kellie Jay-Keen is because she's working class. I'm dying. The only way I can explain such a dumb comment is by assuming the person who tweeted that is not from the UK at all.

    Kelly-Jay 'They're annoyed because I have a house with no mortgage, really big house, lifelong job prospects *self satisfied smirk*' Keen.

    She's the poster child for middle class English snobbish karrenry. There can be no greater Karen. She's out-Karen'd them all.

    I was annoyed because you have narcissist/psychopath vibes and are a bigot but I mean if you want to add class warfare to what we're doing here Kellie.... It won't work well for your optics of pretending you care about working class women lol.

    Surreal seeing Nazis in Ohio with Nazi flags just yell 'sieg hiel' and 'Weimar conditions/Weimer solutions' over and over and say 'it's a gay n-word' a bunch of times while pointing at some guy and 'pedos get the rope' because they think that's better optics than 'we want to kill all LGBT+ people' standing next to a bunch of people with rainbow flags etc next to a drag queen story hour event.

    Then one of them has a white lives matter sign when most of the LGBT+ counter protestors are white. Just because you hate black people and racial minorities, doesn't mean most white people actually agree with you.

    Some guy who seemed to be larping in chainmail as a crusader got maced lol. Then suddenly it was 'all right arrest that fucking guy with the mace.' So he kept yelling at the police with a megaphone to arrest the guy. 'I got maced in the eyes. I told you to stay away from Wadsworth you fucking idiot.'

    There's a lot of very aggressive people floating around (The fascist with the cap is the funniest though lol. She really wanted someone to try and fight her and then when he snaps and says he'll kill her she's all like *surprised pikachu oh my god how very dare* [BEEP] you know what you're about. What is this.) No liberals in this bunch lol.



    'Albert Hirschfeld'

    You mean Magnus you silly Sue?

    "They never tell you which books they burnt. They tell you they burnt books and the same thing is happening today."

    Yeah they did tell people. Just some of us aren't Nazis

    "You think you're the only one with a fucking gun around here?" asked an anti-drag activist as he and others followed the drag supporter who deployed mace earlier, as they were escorted by police.

    "I would love to [BEEP] you up," one anti-drag protester said.

    "Do it in front of the camera!" replied a drag supporter.

    "Why, so you can try to get me for hate crime?"

    "No, so I can fucking kill you!"
    The Proud Boys were also at the anti-drag protest in Ohio today, but tried to distance themselves from the avowed Nazi groups.

    "We're all here for the same reason," a 'White Lives Matter Ohio' guy said.

    "We are, but go over that way," PB replied.

    "They're civic nationalists," explained a WLM guy. "We're white nationalists!"

    WLM said they'd like to be in coalition: "Yeah, I'll beat up Antifa in the woods with them."

    A III% supporter stood with the WLM guys. I tried to ask him why he stands with them, and they told him not to talk to me, explaining "He's just looking for information!" before calling me a "F****t."
    The publication noted that protesters at the event vastly outnumbered supporters, although the Colorado-based group Parasol Patrol was there with rainbow umbrellas to shield children from protesters. The Beacon Journal further noted that a Black reporter from the newspaper had to leave after being called a racial slur several times.
    When the neo-Nazi group "Blood Tribe" led by Chris Pohlhaus (ID'ed thanks to people in the replies of an earlier tweet of mine) first showed up, the police actually had to defend them from fellow anti-drag activists.

    The Nazis called other anti-drag activists "weak."
    Love the one guy who's like 'he's just looking for information' that is his very job description yes. 🤣

    That one kid who was trying to get through and the weird screaming woman. Unhinged.

    This kind of event could have resulted with deadly dangerous. The police did supposedly behave within a supposedly professional manner but they were not ready for this. The atmosphere in this country is becoming dangerous if not deadly dangerous. Events like this could lead to a civil war within this country. A civil war in this country could destabilize this country and/or make this country vulnerable to invasion and/or occupation from another country. It does require all of us to stand against hatred and prejudices at all times.
    I hate to break it to you but you've been in a cold war for years. Decades perhaps.

    I don't want to pay $15 to vote but somehow consistently for months now Contrapoints has had a bunch of interesting topics in her poll for patreon videos and always one of the less interesting topics from my pov gets picked for discussion so I haven't subscribed yet.

    https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fq5HwdoW...jpg&name=small

    https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fq5HxOBW...jpg&name=small

    Like I don't need to hear about the anti-LGBT bills because I read about this all the time and many people talk about it, but Quentin Crisp is really interesting so that would be cool. Also Camille Paglia, Magnus Hirschfeld, autogynephilia (mostly curious if she's changed her view at all since her video on it since I disagree with her take on this topic,) and I'd also like to know what she thinks about anti-shipping discourse lol. Maybe Oscar Wilde too and I'm also interested in The Lavender Menace + Michigan Womyn's music festival topics. Really most of them. But like, would be cool to talk about a few of these in a single video really.

    And I feel like the LGBT+ bill option is going to win.... Or CPAC 2023
    So the site is back up (seemed to be down the last 2 days due to the security certificate expiring? But the LGBT+ bill discussion did actually win as I predicted lol:

    My March Tangent is live on Patreon, covering the 400+ brutal anti-LGBT bills in US state legislatures this year, with subtangents on the history of anti-LGBT laws going back to King Henry VIII. The full 44 minute video is available for $2+ patrons now:
    Yes I can see why but 😔

    I'm not really a fan of Philosophy Tube's content and I don't watch most of it, I don't really resonate with her vibe either but I'm also pissed off with people misgendering her because they don't like her or her opinions and they have no grasp of the situation RE transition in the UK and where she's coming from with her opinions on the medicalisation of gender dysphoria. I would never be allowed to medically transition in the UK without lying because I'm non-binary and don't fit their criteria. Even binary trans women struggle to get treatment often and then even if they're approved for hrt they will be interviewed later and threatened with the removal of hrt if they don't fit neatly into boxes. Not to mention the insane wait lists. I decided not to medically transition because I don't think I would get results I'm happy with and can't predict or control the results but it's not even a decision I get to make as a 32 year old. If I see a therapist and talk to them about my gender issues it's likely they will attempt to perform conversion therapy or have no experience with this topic.

    Eg:

    Well as a trans person in the UK who has done everything by the book I've never interacted with an endocrinologist. The only difference between what I do and DIY is mine is not grey area on legality and it's a lot more stressful because doctors are shit

    One time the doctor threatened to take my HRT away because I said I was afraid of FFS. Which I was paying for privately and went ahead with btw. They've never paid any attention to my hormone levels. I've not had a blood test since lockdown. I have had to dance for doctors though

    And by that I mean I've had to sit through some bullshit "check up" where they do no medical stuff but are clearly testing my performance to appear like what they imagine I should so they'll refill my prescription

    This is the norm for the UK afaict
    Like imagine everytime you go back you worry because you're never safe. You have to prove yourself constantly to everyone you meet (unless stealth,) and professionals. And then transphobes are like WhY Do ThEy cArE AbOuT SeEmInG ValId I dOn'T which is such bullshit too for cis men hah. Matt Walsh is obsessed with masculinity and has a huge complex about it like every conservative man. A lot of these accounts just tweet out [BEEP] about men in dresses and how men shouldn't wear dresses weekly but whatever dudes. Lol this video clip I saw recently on twitter. I'll have to put the full video. The relevant clip is 11:36 minutes in I think it's from some guy called Hamza Ahmed:



    Why are you trying to encourage neuroticism and zero sum thinking in men? And imagine being trans on top of that [BEEP] although tbh most trans guys in the public sphere seem disturbingly well adjusted to me lol and certainly more than cis men in the manosphere. I don't get it because I'm not.

    So the above twitter comments were actually in response to Brianna Wu and something she tweeted about this. Brianna Wu actually blocked me years ago on another account for calling her a hypocrite during the gamergate era lol. (It was my only tweet to her, I called her a hypocrite over something she tweeted once.) I do not have a positive impression of her presently either:

    There is literally no person that medically transitioned in the 70s, 80s, 90s, or 00s that didn?t benefit from the professional guidelines developed by Harry Benjamin she is attacking.

    HRT needs to be carefully supervised by an endocrinologist.
    Lol:

    Have you tried listening to trans people?
    It's just kind of weirdly ironic seeing them call people who pass (like this trans woman who responded above different trans woman from the UK tweets btw,) are conventionally attractive, tick every box, have medically transitioned 'transtrenders' or not actually trans like wasn't that supposed to be reserved for non-transitioning low status outcasts like me? Ridiculous infighting bs.

    Also dysphoria is sort of murky and for some people it is more like the insecurity cis men/women have which is probably not dysphoria OK. For example I've always had insecurity about my height I don't think it's materially different to what cis men experience and some cis men are even more insecure about it than me but it might be materially for some people, also some cis women feel that way especially if they're queer. I also have issues occasionally with not having a dick this again isn't really dysphoria for me but more like externally triggered. I don't sit around feeling sad all the time that I don't have a dick in everyday life independent of anything. It's more something I'd want for sex + inspired by envy/competition etc like cis men with insecurity over having a small dick. Admittedly I don't really think of my height thing and other insecurities as being dysphoria anyway a lot of the time they don't feel materially unique enough. The social dysphoria aspect seems more separate from a cis experience for me personally.

    I didn't start identifying as non-binary until I considered most of the people I wanted to be/look like were men and that's how I modelled myself in my head as bi-gender 'oh there's a word for that OK,' (a bunch actually lol,) then I put off using any of those terms for years because nobody wants to be that low status and the butt of every joke. So this is different from many trans people probably who define their identity by suffering (but there are also a lot of people like me.) I have a weird kind of phobic reaction to certain sexed body parts or the idea of them, but that's mangable and potentially not dysphoria again. Don't really enjoy using them during sex well I've never had intercourse at all actually, have a lot of [BEEP] going on sexually.

    I don't have to worry about this too much though in a social competition sense who 'is or isn't really trans' because I'm non-binary over trans because people don't police that label as much.

    Yeah so they grasp for independent special categorisation for safety. But my greater issue is that body autonomy is not respected especially for trans people. And why isn't a cis woman in her 20s allowed to get sterilised if she wants to? Because I knew of someone online who was trying and they kept telling her to wait till she was older.

    Also lol not really related but stumbled on that when looking up the other tweets was funny:

    I came out OUT, like publicly out as a lesbian 17yrs ago. Been in LGBTQ+ circles a long time. All bisexual women I?ve met along the way have ended up marrying men. ALL of them. I only know one bi man who?s married to a man. And I know plenty of bi men. Make of it what you will.
    that's cool. i know lesbians who married men and bi men in poly relationships and bi women who married women and bi women who married men and turned them into women and bi men who married men as a woman and enbies who do gender crimes. and importantly, they all find me hot.
    i think these are the lyrics to girls and boys by blur


    And if you can believe it she actually tweeted that (whoever tweeted the original tweet I don't know of them. A medical sociologist apparently,) to start a dialogue with bisexual people. Always a great way to start. :')

    My point really is grounded in yours, in the stats you cite. My point is to hear bi folks experiences along the intersections of cis heteronormativity and marriage as a political act. And cis heteronormativity exists to a large degree b/c use of the numbers you share!!
    But she's getting a lot of 'bisexual people don't exist' responses honestly.

    Cis heteronormativity makes the people including gay people. Stop treating it as just a ideological choice and recognize the biological imperative behind our very existence that sustains the species along with the other binary sexually reproducing species.
    And the straight guys that just have to be here for some reason.

    I, personally will never go near a bi-woman. I don't play with my life and time like that. I have seen enough and my time is precious to me.
    ...queer women do not go all out for bi-women because somehow, from experience- you know they will end up with men. It's almost like they pass time with women, while seeing men on the side...then, finally- they marry men. They have so many excuses for this. That's my opinion.
    I like to make sure I'm pissing off everyone simultaneously (/s) so I prefer 'turning men into women' and not labelling myself with anything that reaches a certain point of gatekeeping. That's why I favour [BEEP] too and because of alienation. Even though she's using it here in opposition to bisexuality.

    I think this group are [BEEP] right because nobody knows what the [BEEP] to make of them but feels the need to write papers about them and post about them on social media:

    https://www.researchgate.net/publica...021_Case_Study

    Some of these people are trans/trans-adj too.

    Same with sexual furries honestly. This definition will annoy the [BEEP] out of many people too lol. Yet that's how bigots use it now anyway. They don't really use it for lesbian and gay and get annoyed when lesbian and gay people call themselves that because they don't see those as a threat as much now. I'm talking about liberals and centrists mostly. There's still homophobic evangelicals and fundamentalists around.

    These women have invented a sort of heterosexual lesbianism.

    Nisu (泥塑) is a subculture of female fans fantasizing about male celebrities being female, and their lover. Young men are 小鲜肉 (little fresh meat). 'My baby is so soft and pretty, I want him to be my wifey'.
    that is a new one
    NO IT ISN'T. It's just no matter how long you exist it doesn't stick.

    Monsieur Venus was the occasion for Paul Verlaine's remark to Rachilde, "Ah! My dear child, if you've invented an extra vice, you'll be a benefactor of humanity!" In his preface to the 1889 Brossiers edition, Maurice Barres described Monsieur V?nus as depraved, perverse, and nasty. He referred to it as a "sensual and mystical frenzy" and the appalling but exciting dream of a young virgin who suffered from the same hysteria as her main character.
    How has it been over 100 years and we're still here? You know what I mean?

    My first question was: is this an advanced form of lesbianism?
    Still one of the funniest sentences I've ever read tbh.

    To investigate, I asked my other friend and official lesbian correspondent R
    Have you tried asking someone with the relevant sexual preference instead lol?

    Yes. A sort of Chinese slash fiction with a twist - 'There's nothing to like about masculinity' seems to be whats driving it.

    Nisu is about reversing the power dynamic and "it's also about seeking deeper emotional connection by imagining commonality."
    The western women who write (gay) slash fiction are doing it because they can't imagine women and men being equals in a relationship.

    Chinese women think the same but imagine the men as women.
    As a guess, I'd say that western women wish they were equal in power to men, but Chinese women wish that men were equal in power to *them*.
    Go the [BEEP] away. Lol. We're never in the room when they do this.

    (I am Western and lost 4 hours once to using faceapp on Loki. Others too but mostly Loki. I spent most of my teenage years reading slash fanfiction. Also wrote stories with androgynous characters who were sometimes intersex. This is not mutually exclusive at all.) This is super niche discourse right now. It's going to become so obnoxious when it starts getting bigger like fujoshi discourse.

    Moreover, the current nisu culture in Chinese fandom is more for entertainment. "I think it is funny to call him 'laopo', and everyone does" (Chen, pers. Comm., April 27th, 2021). There is little further exploration of gender politics in nisu culture.
    Yeah sometimes it's a sexual Pygmalion kind of thing (photoshopping Loki,) sometimes I just think it's funny to see other's reactions like the one time I photoshopped a photo of a tyranid pink to mess with my ex, and the time I photoshopped Chuck Norris pink with a flower tattoo and uploaded it to facebook and my brother was like 'no Chuck Norris doesn't just kill you he kills your whole family.' Probably similar motivation to the guy on my uni course who called me a lesbian (was someone I've brought up before lol I swear there were more than like 5 people on that course,) and created a hello kitty assault rifle for a piece of course work and a game that involved killing babies. One time a psychologist (I think I don't know) came in to sort everyone into their mbti personality types groups and then do some kind of task (why was this even a thing and mbti isn't even a good personality test lol,) and the group I was in and the group he was in (which were different) both were a bit um problematic (I don't honestly remember why I think the baby killing game came up though,) and the next week the lecturer said the psychologist expressed concern about the general chaos (and that psychologist was Jordan B Peterson. No lol.) So I'm not saying I'm not some kind of evil monster as a gamer. I'm just not only evil.

    Some nisu fans satisfy the desire and proclaim power by objectifying males instead of pursuing reconciliation of gender conflict and reconstruction of gender order.
    However, nisu is a minority cultural circle and has been rejected by the mainstream fan culture for a long time due to its special erotic attributes. As a result, it is difficult for the researcher to get in touch with the core members and contributors in a short period of time and gain the full trust of all the respondents. Therefore, this study is more exposed to the part of nisu culture that has been or is being recognized and accepted by mainstream culture. The parts that are hard to be revealed still need to be explored further. In addition, this study also noted that the nisu fan fiction focuses more on social gender change, but rarely directly depicts the biological gender change. However, due to the limitations of samples and time, this conjecture needs more data and research to support in the future.
    As I said before I do find the academic/politicisation and the attempt to root it in geography annoying because it feels like conversion therapy because they always adopt a specific lens where there's a problem and this is a result of a problem. If they fix the problem then everyone will go back to being normie straight women (and trans people will stop existing and men will stop wearing dresses etc.) Even though research shows that all women besides lesbian are bisexually aroused anyway. But bisexual women don't exist and are attention seekers? And this is the point where I become quite radical about it because the science isn't even really on their side with this topic.

    Anyway it's all kind of bullshit except the serious legal oppression (and as I mentioned before actually the fanfiction website ao3 was shut down in China in response to a controversy regarding Nisu fanworks, that's how threatened the government is by stuff that goes against gender/sexuality norms.) I just discovered this track about tree oppression lol (like literally while writing this post):



    I dunno if I like them. I discovered some live recording on TV that my dad was listening to months ago with one track that stood out to me and don't really remember what it was. I think it was probably Tom Sawyer. But then re-listening wasn't the same so I dunno. Was trying to capture some emotional response later that didn't happen it's weird. I like this track:



    I have this impression of prog rock fans being pretentious/snobs about it (from comments I read online,) and I grew up listening to pop punk and nu metal, grunge, and stuff like that and had some interest in punk too (at least until my mid teens then started listening to The Cure and Patrick Wolf more.) So that prob feeds into it too (because of the historical relationship between those genres, this wasn't discourse when I was a teenager prog and punk for that matter were 'dead,' just seems probably tangentially related.) There are also generational/daddy issue elements to it all. This effects my enjoyment somewhat which is dumb but there it is. I guess I like Steven Wilson's work because he admits to listening to everything, mostly made music in the 90s and later, and has explored a lot musically. Also very talented. Somehow better live than in studio recordings (seen him live 4 times.) Yes. No not that yes. Oh my god imagine having to link just one video. Not linking Buying New Soul again it's actually my favourite track though.

    When everyone talks about Philosophy Tube and just says PT I think of Porcupine Tree lol. Steven Wilson had some quirky fun stuff in the beginning (I like it a lot,) but it's definitely darker and angrier a lot of it lol past a point. Lyrics about mental illness and abuse of drugs, and social issues, and serial killers, and Joyce Carol Vincent and alienation in the city and so on. That's the 90s/post 90s thing I think. He's definitely gen X lol.

    I've never heard this song live and I really need to one day. At least the screaming part with Raider II here is some of his best vocal work so yeah. Said this so many times but true.

    I like TOOL as well.

    Oh my god speaking of [BEEP] JK Rowling apparently retweeted this [BEEP] (that's not a typo.) This guy is a real piece of work. I've stumbled on him before complaining about trans men and non-binary people (he was vague about definition in the video) wanting to sleep with him. But it was absolute crickets after that. Essentially nobody trans masc even responded to the tweet lol. Nobody wants to [BEEP] him.



    I don't care about the design of a flag. I don't have any flags. The Welsh flag is better than most because it at least has a dragon on and that makes all other flags pointless when you think about it.

    Let's not get it twisted even a lot of gay men don't want to [BEEP] other gay men.



    The tweets here lol:



    I like straight MEN not gay boys baby <3 don't be a jerk
    Also speaking of JK Rowling and James Charles they actually are in a video together absurdly (multiple actually lol):





    Love surreal Entertainment.

    A little consistency sometime would be great Rudy 'I'm a victim and just supposedly cannot escape the trans masc people who want to force me to have sex with them.'

    I'm not a [BEEP] (well I am but not that kind,) so I'm not going to say that all gay men are trying to practice conversion therapy on straight men lol (in spite of what he says people like me are supposedly trying to do to gay men actually my interests in straight/bisexual men are more of an issue for them.) You can have the masculine straight men in fact (well no you can't lol for obvious reasons but I don't care either way.) I'm mostly interested in androgynous musicians who aren't masc enough for most of you and are mostly if not exclusively into women, and genderfluid aliens I mean I think some straight women might have some complaints with what I just said lol but that's for you guys to sort out. I'll be over here with my alien waifu. ̶Y̶e̶a̶h̶ ̶G̶e̶d̶d̶y̶ ̶L̶e̶e̶ ̶w̶a̶s̶ ̶p̶r̶e̶t̶t̶y̶ ̶c̶u̶t̶e̶ ̶w̶h̶e̶n̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶n̶g̶ ̶h̶e̶ ̶h̶a̶d̶ ̶l̶o̶n̶g̶ ̶h̶a̶i̶r̶ ̶(̶w̶e̶l̶l̶ ̶I̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶n̶k̶ ̶h̶e̶ ̶s̶t̶i̶l̶l̶ ̶d̶o̶e̶s̶,̶)̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶a̶ ̶h̶i̶g̶h̶ ̶p̶i̶t̶c̶h̶e̶d̶ ̶v̶o̶i̶c̶e̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶h̶e̶'̶s̶ ̶a̶ ̶m̶u̶s̶i̶c̶i̶a̶n̶ ̶s̶o̶ ̶I̶ ̶d̶i̶d̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶i̶c̶e̶.̶ ̶B̶a̶s̶i̶c̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶w̶a̶y̶.̶ ̶I̶'̶m̶ ̶a̶c̶t̶u̶a̶l̶l̶y̶ ̶s̶l̶i̶g̶h̶t̶l̶y̶ ̶a̶n̶n̶o̶y̶e̶d̶ ̶a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶w̶h̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶s̶e̶e̶m̶s̶ ̶h̶e̶a̶l̶t̶h̶y̶ ̶h̶a̶h̶a̶h̶a̶ ̶a̶l̶o̶n̶g̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶p̶o̶s̶t̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶g̶e̶n̶e̶r̶a̶l̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶w̶h̶a̶t̶e̶v̶e̶r̶.̶ ̶S̶i̶n̶g̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶t̶r̶e̶e̶s̶ ̶t̶o̶o̶.̶ ̶P̶f̶f̶t̶ 😒 I mean it just annoys me because I hadn't got into their music properly before noticing this and now all my opinions will be biased and I'm going to keep watching these old music videos because of the hair and his legs and he has that approachable nerd vibe. Just rude of him. I'm completely sane.

    No I'm sorry guys I forgot only JK Rowling is allowed to make people gay. And she decides who's a woman too.

    Also he's shocked and appalled by this couple I bet 'but she said she's a lesbian. But he used to be gay.':

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HLnSD0drEE

    Oh my god I forgot Gigi and her life. Just her entire life really. 100% pissing these people off so much especially given how happy/successful they all are (because they want everyone to be like me because it gives them an excuse to hate us.) So Gigi came out as gay then came out as a trans woman and transitioned medically, got into a relationship with Nats Getty who at the time was identifying as a butch lesbian so Gigi came out as a lesbian and they got married and then Nats came out as non-binary and then later a trans man and Gigi came out as pansexual. Also Gigi is best friends with Gottmik who is a pansexual trans guy and drag performer:





    (this is why they had to cut off drag btw even though it did start as a subculture in the gay male community.)

    What's he up to right now oh I see:

    Lesbians are homoSEXual women. Adult human females with an EXCLUSIVE SEXual attraction to other adult human females.

    Trans women are adult human males and therefore cannot be included in lesbianism. Not because of bigotry, but because SEXual orientation is based on SEX.

    Hundreds of LGBTQ+ women tell trans-exclusionary Lesbian Project: 'You do not represent us'
    Why are you, a gay man, speaking for lesbians and explaining our sexuality to us?
    so that means you agree that t4t trans people should belong in the lgb community because we're, as you put it, "same sex" attracted? but i thought you wanted to cut all trans people off?

    he blocked me LMAOOOOOO. okay homophobe.
    Lol, 'LGBTQ+ women' will almost exclusively mean men.
    So lesbians can stand down, there?s nothing to see here other than demanding, deluded man-babies
    It's literally just any normal lesbian who isn't obsessed with hating trans people but thanks for your concern lmao
    Oh so you?re one of those ?lesbians? who like girldick. Right, got it. Thanks for the clarification
    I'd LOVE to know how many of these lesbians would actually seriously date a man who says he's a woman. Gosh do they think that makes them woke or just reinforces the patriarchy? Can't wrap my head around it.
    Then there are a bunch of comments insulting trans people's surgery and shit. Including trans men who honestly weren't part of the initial tweet but OK lol.

    It's such a 'fun community.' Definitely why wouldn't every young person want to be part of this fun? We don't share a community and I don't want to be part of your community [BEEP] lol. You all object to some people using words differently to you. Like lesbians who have sex with cis and trans women. Several cis gay men commenting. As cis gay men that must bother them a lot the definition of lesbian.



    I think she thinks Men's Rights Activist is some kind of insult lol.

    Somebody did chuck tomato sauce on her I think? And she (Posie Parker/Kellie-Jay I mean,) threatened to annihilate women who disagree with her. I'm sure JK Rowling was devastated that time someone assaulted Nigel Farage too:



    Anita Bryant:



    Posie Parker:



    Opps I forgot Jeffree was 'not a gay male' *intense voice* he has casual sex with women lol. So he's evil because he's not a pure gay and also presents femininely. (That appears to be the rules, so in that sense I can see why he said that stuff about they/them's to win some respect. He's a huge hypocrite too lol.) James Charles is though as are the other bunch of people who prefer straight men because they see them as more masculine and I see people talk about this online lol. It took me 2 minutes to look up a recent thread on askgaybros talking about this and half the comments are like this:

    Ita normal. There too many aspect to consider but they almost all point to straight men. Most men would sleep with straight men if they could. Str8 men are naturally more in tuned with their masculinity than gay guys. Most gays/( mostly bottoms) love dominance, assertiveness, provider, strong, protective, less emotional. Its quality str8 men are fine with, but always a debate among gay men.

    Also straight men dont suck dick, or " emasculate themselves" by taking a dick in the [BEEP] like gays do. Then there this whole thing that straight men are at the top of hierarchy so its validating to be desired by them. Also str8 men's atttraction towards women, is more primal , than gay men which is usally end up in compromise and charity work, unless maybe if its a pure top/ pure bottom situation.

    Long story short, a lot of gay men are women in mens body, str8bmen are almost all men in a mans body
    I saw this mindset with only feminine submissive bottoms who think every/most gay men are just like them.
    But, is he wrong? It seems like a resonable explanation as to why a lot of gays if not the majority would preffer to hook up with a straight guy.
    You are clearly fetishizing straight men, I can see it in your profile. I bet you are one of those effeminate gay men who believe every gay man is like them and men who have sex with them is actually straight. No, the "straight" men who let you suck their dick and [BEEP] your [BEEP] are not straight just because they have girlfriends. Come to reality and embrace your kind.
    Why are you saying his take is wrong when you're basically agreeing that straight guys are more masculine lol. Gays are attracted to straights cause they are more masculine and cause fucking women is a sign of being dominant and a provider. It's not fetishizing straights, gay men's brain are wired similar to that of a straight woman. Also, most gays are bottoms and a straight guy is like the perfect top.
    You're probably right but i still wished gay men's brain would work the same as the straight ones but i guess that's not possible.
    So maybe start there. Oh wait I suppose you did #nofemmes Edit: honestly I was expecting some stuff like this there but the sheer amount of it in that thread made me wonder if I'd stumbled on some circlejerk/shitpost subreddit by accident but no.

    I'm sorry this autoplayed so I'm listening to it which makes this whole post more hilarious. I remembered WoW music recently and so now YouTube is autoplaying that:



    lol at the end of the video 'warlocks are still the best' damn straight.

    Left a cringe comment on this video years ago too.

    And one of them is called Gigi too. Perfect





    Like WoW Doomtree lol:





    #yesallgamers

    In conclusion (for the next five minutes,) everyone is terrible. Humans are cancelled. The End.

    /Narcissismofsmalldifferences

    There's this cis lesbian who I follow on twitter and because she's very pro trans, aggressive, and has a banner about being [BEEP] GC people are constantly assuming she's a trans woman lol. Her avatar has sunglasses and it's black and white though with the Kate Moennig reaction gifs so that's how you know she's cis. No but. At least get better at this if you're going to try and make a judgement lol.

    The WJC should be held in Canada every year. We need to grow the game blah blah but the game times when held in Sweden are just so inconvenient
