It's fair to be oblivious to sexual and romantic subtext. At least you're aware that you have that issue.

Some things are symptoms of both autism and ADHD.

They are not only restricted to autism.

These comments bother me as much as the ones that say "everyone has that problem" because it is very difficult to carve out a single place for ADHD.

pay the dues

I find this viewpoint absolutely baffling. No one owes you for your data when you give it away.

Every single thing we post is graffiti on the sides of a public view board. There are no magic words you say that protect you from other people, or in this case, anyone on the internet from taking what you post.

The type of thing you submit doesn't change that. And one of the reasons this baffles me is... Any idiot knows you don't post your password online. You don't post your credit card information online. You don't post your social security number online.

Why?

Because it will be stolen.

Why people pretend that scraped comments or someone's art should be immune to this just... baffles me.

If you want it to be different, you have to actually do something about it.

It's the problem with liberals today. People will spend five billion hours online whingeing that LLMs shouldn't steal art, and not a single minute actually organizing protests or lobbying their government representatives or building a site or setting up a server. Literally complaining nonstop without lifting a finger to make change.

Also I am so fucking over how people call every group they don't agree with blank-bros. This is another kind of female erasure and it pisses me off.

Okay but Armpits Esquire has the kind of whimsy I love best.

I might be the best. Because I immediately thought of "slam a book on his testicles right before he climaxes," and I feel like that's in the running for 'worst.' Unless I specifically get someone who's into that.

This is why I'd make such a fantastic vampire.

Ever left the home with a deep, resentful glare burning through the back of your skull?

Yes, but that's on trauma, not on weird social rules on genders. (I'm a woman.)

I promise you my potato soup is not a sauce.

It's a cream soup and it's essentially weird mashed potato when cold.

You're characterizing a whole spectrum with one terrible example.

Have you ever once pretended it isn't? Or is this a reddit-like repeat of a movie quote from Joker to the same tune as those upthread were just complaining about?

I'm not trying to come for you, specifically Anarki, but you just accidentally provided a perfect example of the exact thing the others were complaining about.

I support everyone being called whatever they want but I'm not on here super often so I didn't see the post about the name change and this client doesn't have display names. :(
