It’s one of the tactics of fascism, to get heavily involved in sex. Regulating it, controlling it, and using the overlap with shame to control people. There’s tonnes written on the subject and it’s fascinating, but also terrifying.

Dvds still account for around half of physical media sales. Far from obsolete.
Mastadon has definitely improved it’s user onboarding process. When I first tried, and failed, to use it 3 years ago it was awful. Signing up a year ago was a painless process. It may not be fully ready for the mainstream just yet, but it’s definitely getting there.
Because video creation can be a better source of revenue for creators than a blog post and some people still like to get paid for their expertise?
Zucchini rotini!
What has a fire in a park got to do with what we’re discussing?
Nudity at Pride is rare, can happen, but it’s not exclusive to Pride. And also something that I think attitudes should change on. Nudity is not something that people should fear, nor should they be shamed if they are happy being nude.
Define too far.
Let me also ask you what you think about nude bike rides, where dozens, if not hundreds, of people cycle nude through a city. Is that too much for you?
It really depends on where you are and what sort of Pride event it is. If it’s a Pride march with lots of corporate sponsors, then you’ll see very little kink, maybe someone in full rubber, but probably no jockstraps. If it’s a ticketed gay village party, or a circuit party, you’ll definitely see some more risque kink gear being worn. If you’re at Folsom or in Berlin, there’s whole parades dedicated to kink, but even the straight public know about that, so if they don’t like it, they can avoid the area during those events.
Just played Tell Me Why, as it was free. Played well on the deck with all the graphics turned up. I enjoyed the story, and it’s nice to see a game with good queer representation, both trans and gay. It wasn’t a long game, maybe 10-12 hours, low on the replayability unless you’re a completionist. Light puzzle solving, great theming, and a nice soundtrack. Overall I’d give it a 6/10. I didn’t regret my time playing.
While I don’t disagree with what you said in theory, what’s stopping you from having these conversations? Is there a fear of losing your friends if you talk about these issues? What about your job, house, family, or even your life? These are real fears for a lot of queer people, still to this day, even in places like the UK and USA.
There’s plenty of media out there that discusses non nuclear relationships for straight people. It’s not always mainstream, but it exists. There’s still very little for queer people that doesn’t have to also tell the story of the bigotry and fear we face on the regular.
Please have your discussions, but rather than not having anything against us, have our backs when our rights and our lives are in jeopardy.
If you have a way of installing android apps from the web on your TV, Smart Tube Next is very good. Sponsor Block is integrated if you want to use it, but I mostly am just glad it doesn’t serve ads.
Finally a Google product I don’t mind then sending to the graveyard.
I keep getting “can’t connect to server” when I try to log in. Anyone else having the same issue that was able to get around it?
Playing oh so much Vampire Survivors. The number of unlocks just keeps going up, but it’s keeping my ADHD brain engaged.
As a gay man, most of my list doesn’t have names. Why would I remember their names? Some I didn’t even ask.
I just left one of the UK’s largest VMWare customers, in a team working directly on VSphere and ESXI products. The team was just starting to tool up for a new internal project to manage VMs within the company using some of the newer features in these tools. We had well over 1 million VMs across more than a dozen datacenters. The cost of running this is expected to go up by 30 times or more.
While it’s going to take some time, they’re now looking at migrating to a different solution. So Broadcom are going to get their extra pay for a while, but not forever.
And Smart Tube Next for Android TV devices.
