I’m not really sure what this changes in practice, though. If I don’t find my friend or my neighbor attractive, but then get change my mind as I get to know him, there’s no problem. If I don’t find a guy on OkCupid attractive, it’s asking a lot to expect me to invest enough time in getting to know him in hopes of…

“...the gay dating community, there can be relentless rejection filters that rule out entire groups based on race alone”

My type is transparent poeple. That’s why it looks like I’m alone all the time.

That sort of sexual policing gives me rapey vibes. It suggests that we have to go against our own bodies and experiences to somehow fuck our way to social justice - which is gross. I don’t need to be shamed or coerced into having sex that I don’t want to have, especially not when its only to further a narrative.

So many flowers! My favorite was when she painted a mural of herself on one wall:

good lord, I miss this show. it was a weekend marathon staple in my house.

“Quentin Tarantino is interviewed by Bret Easton Ellis”

Let’s speak of something worth while...remember when “sci-fi” played mst3k rather than Sharknado 12? The good ol’ days. That odd ball Tara Reid existed in an E! Network series that capitalized on female sexualization when men that identify as heterosexual (read: would even ogle boobs) dared watch E! Network. And even…

Lighten up, Sheepshank.

Right. There were drugs involved.

This is where I wish the line between figurative and literal were blurrier.

(This happened with a friend, a remote, and Stand and Deliver/Fight Club. She called me all confused and frantic wanting to know if they were blowing up the city because they failed the state test).
