sexual orientation labels, attraction, self
I label myself lesbian or sapphic because that's what I vibe the most with atm, but tbh I don't view that in a very strict way. It's more about the interpersonal vibe I associate with that, and I tend to find feminine features attractive and masculine features not. I can also find a non-feminine guy hot, and I find myself attracted to people for reasons detached from physical appearance as well, regardless of their (perceived) gender.
When I started to discover my queerness I used to label myself bi, and I'd consider pan if I ever come across a guy I find myself attracted to personality wise who doesn't start transitioning after xD /hj
(not that I have anything at all against more femmes :3 )
tl;dr: the universe is a hologram, attraction is a fuck, abolish categories and celebrate the wide spectrum of individual expression and so on
[read before following] meta, giving benefit of doubt, playing devils advocate, etc
I do not want to associate with people who'd directly assume the worst possible intentions in others, even if they disagree hard on something the other one is talking about.
Neither do I want to associate with people who play devils advocate for others who show time and time again that they don't act in good faith, or "centrists" about uncompromisable issues like human rights.
And I especially don't want to have anything to do with anyone who'd find it acceptable to publicly slander others. (slander, not reasonably calling out bad behavior when that would benefit others.)
If we can't agree that that kind of conduct is bad, I don't think we'll get along, so please don't follow me in that case, thanks.
(This was prompted by several unrelated things, please don't assume knowing what or who this might be about. I won't comment about any specifics here either.)
No boost without (actually useful) alt-text.
No boost without CW where appropriate.
It's a matter of solidarity, equal participation for all, and simply basic human decency too.
Call me out on this if I ever fuck it up.

I wish my brain had a filter and didn't force me to pay attention to all kinds of sounds, conversations and movement in the background, which I genuinely couldn't care less about
