Becoming gay to avoid drama is a bit like climbing on board the Titanic to avoid drowning.
I dunno, my queer drama’s always been more interesting. Less basic. Somebodys asks if you’d still love them as a worm, we all know the right answer is ‘I’d worship you, shai-hulud’ 'cuz we all want that spice.
I worked the door of a very popular gay venue for a year. The security staff called the drama “Gays of our lives” and it was fucking amazing.
Right? It’s not just the same bullshit script on repeat that so many straights do.
Nah you arent that unique you know. Its the same shit as straight clubs just with less violence and WAY more over the top acting and better writing. Straight guys throw chairs and punches, flamboyant gay dudes throw drinks and slap faces, Its just way more entertaining to be around.
The lesbians on the other hand… that shit was vicious but infrequent. Like dudes brawling but with hair pulling and nails as well.
and better writing
That. Is. What. I’m. Saying. Not that we dont; that we’re netter written and less repetitive.
the lesbians on the other hand…
So it might just be the fact that im kind of giant, but all my messy break-ups had many-aftershocks psychological shit. No physical confrontation even when my fresh ex was a very generally physical person.
I think we’re pretty much on the same page. The stories were the same “Thats my ex” or “Stop flirting with my girl/boy” or “you think you’re better than me” stuff but the shit talking before things got physical was so much better.
Meatheads get to the punching part too fast for it to be funny. You have enough time to go “Aw fuck…” and it was on. I once saw someone go 5 solid minutes on another persons shoes and it was amazing.
I’ve been around the block a few times and I’m afraid I have to report that nerd love transcends sexual orientation.
Even the non nerds. I’ve dated meathead athletes who knew this stuff!
I thought you gays loved sucking worms. What has spice got to do with it?
Different kinda gay in my case, and read a book.
God damn, I wish I was gay.
It’s pretty great during the occasional year when nobody’s trying to exterminate us.
As a male bi who tends to sleep with women more than men and tend to favor fem guys (I’m picky), I wish I was gayer.
That said, bi and poly women are fantastic.
All were saying is drama exists In all spheres. Where you like to stick it means nothing.
Goto a gaybar and people watch, it’s fun and some of the drama you see is absolutely entertaining. Humans are humans.
But why are all straight people everywhere like this one meme, am I right fellas?
Because they’re brainwashed by Disney and romcoms.
source: I’m gay. Bitches be crazy
Reminds me of that Key and Peele sketch about the gay coworker.
not if you like anal
Who the fuck censors removed… You’re even allowed to say removed on TV
Lemmy.ml apparently. When you type B…I…T…C…H it automatically turns to removed. They’re treating you like some kid who can’t handle grown-up words. Switch to another instance if you want more freedom with your choice of words.
Lemmy.ml banned me on my Startrek.website account years ago during the height of my posting. Like when I was posting 20 things every hour or two. Why? Posted some Jimmy Neutron meme about Disney having a first gay character and it being the 14th one this month. Title was like “Can always be the first in China at least for a couple minutes” or something along those lines.
From what I heard from some of the people who worked on .ml behind the scenes, they had to reverse the ban because a bunch of people started asking why there was no new content and other people started to realize it was because I had gotten banned.
Have never posted on lemmy.ml since and don’t bother to interact with the instance at all. I don’t have it blocked because not all users are like the admins but like fuck am I ever adding to that shithole ever again. I thought that was the worst I’d ever deal with from admins… and then I started getting personally harassed by the startrek.website admins across multiple websites and basically forgot about lemmy.ml entirely.
But, isn’t it wonderful that we can have a fediverse where there can be annoying instances like those ones, but if you don’t like it you can just move or block?
The fediverse is chaotic but I sure prefer chaos to having one corporate overlord with one point of view, and one goal, which is getting ads in front of as many eyeballs as possible.
. I don’t have it blocked because not all users are like the admins but like fuck am I ever adding to that shithole ever again.
Blocking an instance only blocks you from seeing communities there, it doesn’t block you from seeing users posting in other communities.

I couldn’t agree more. Unfortunately, the devs are .ml fans, and they know such a feature would ruin their instance because people fucking hate them.
Check the changelogs for the latest release then. :)
What kind of bitches censor bitches? Like, what’s wrong with my dogs?
They are just trying to be like the CCP, their heroes. Wait until they roll out their social credit system in upcoming Lemmy releases!

Well, there is a type of censorship I guess. Some apps don’t allow people to post bad words like 卧槽,and so on. So people usually abbreviate the bad words to the first letter of each pinyin. So 卧槽 becomes “wc”.
This isn’t just for bad words tho, there’s many online slangs like xswl which means 笑死我了, and many more.

We’re all down to shit on new-deal-capitalism-with-chinese-characteristics, but you realize america’s had this for decades? Getting upset that it’s some uniquely chinese novelty is a little infuriating, as someone who has been doxxed and denied housing by that crap.
So, what are the facts relating to China’s Social Credit System (SoCS)? First, a system does exist, but it is very different from what is imagined by many critics outside China. The biggest disconnect is around the notion of scores. Some commentators seem to imagine that a magic algorithm draws from AI cameras and internet surveillance all over the country to calculate a score that determines everyone’s place in society. In reality, the SoCS is not the techno-dystopian nightmare we fear: it is lowly digitalized, highly fragmented, and primarily focuses on businesses. Most importantly, such a score simply does not exist.

Classic lib move: dunking on nonexistent “ebil ccp” systems that started off as rumors mere days after the west decided it would clamp down on any semblance of internet freedom - upon a backdrop of rapidly burgeoning fascism and concentration camps. The US State Department has effortlessly oriented you.
Are you the legendary Poem for your sprog of yore?!
Woah are you the OG sprog? Great to see you here!
Holy shit sprog is here too! Big fan
Wait until you meet Margot Robbie and President Biden, who posted here in the early days and definitely wasn’t me.
Margot Robbie, SatansMaggotyCumFart, Kolanaki, The Picard Maneuver
We’ve got a whole list of local celebs that can be met!

You know him from outside the fediverse too?
I saw Margot Robbie, but i figured they’d been asked a thousand times if they were the real Margot, and even then it wouldnt have changed my interaction, so I just left it. Are they still around?
I never saw Biden, I thought his press account wod have been on bluesky
It’s not the real Margot, just someone who plays her on TV.

I think it has to do with what they are used to. They never knew the freedom other instances provided.
Also, don’t you have to read like the Communist Manifesto to even join lemmy,ml? Sounds to me only something objectively stupid people would do to join an internet forum.
Not all of us. I just read what it said on the main page “A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers” and thought that sounded good. I’m sure a lot of people that were new to lemmy figured the instance run by the devs themselves would be a safe bet. There also wasn’t nearly as much drama around .ml back then, but it honestly hasn’t been enough of an issue to make me create an account on a new instance and switch.
Your instance does…
any recommendations on where to jump ship to?
Anywhere but lemmygrad or hexbear, really. lemmy.dbzer0.com,
lemmy.world(EDIT: ngl, I forgor there are multiple issues with this one. We should also be pushing folks to smaller instances anyways, because mega-servers are a threat to the fediverse.), lemmy.zip, or lemmy.blahaj.zone are all good ones. I’m quite partial to kbin.earth (although you’d need a different app), and there’s also piefed instances.Dbzer0 is pretty solid. Never had any issues with the admins, they post pro piracy shit, and they even ask for your input before implementing rule changes. It’s pretty comfortable and meets my values well enough.
Not .world. Just as bad but rabidly pro genocide.
Literally anywhere that isn’t lemmygrad or hexbear will usually be better. You could go to an instance with open sign up until you find somewhere else, but they tend to house a lot of closeted reactionaries, I assume because those people like the anonymity. Personally I just looked up instances to see which ones I liked. They’ll have a description of who they are and if sign ups require an application you just say why you want to join their instance. It’s not a huge deal really.
sh.itjust.works is awesome. The admins are cool as shit, and as you can tell from the name, there’s no BS censorship.
Literally any non-ml instance would be a way better choice. Also avoid hexbear. The rest are pretty solid. I’m happy with speed of Lemmus.org, but lemmy.world worked fine for me too.
I’m a refugee from lemm.ee and I’ve been enjoying piefed.zip and the .zip lemmy instance
Chose this one since I’ve heard (and from what I’ve seen) that like lemm.ee, the .zip instances only block the REALLY problematic stuff NSFL and illegal content, leaving it to the user to fill their own block lists rather than defederating
Edit, also used an mbin instance, I never really liked the microblog side of the fediverse (just not my thing) and wanted to continue to use voyager app
I went to Mander, since .ml is blocked in China.
.ml is blocked in China? Wild.
IKR. I want to know what kind of spicy take got it blocked.
Pretty sure China would block all lemmy instances they knew of, the smaller ones just flew under the radar.
I think so too, but .world wasn’t blocked.
My 2 cents is lemmy.zip. it’s the most like the lost treasure that was lemm.ee. it leaves a lot of censoring up to the user
Might want to consider piefed instances as well, it’s a fediverse front-end not developed by the weaklings that decided to censor your innocuous words.
I should do that too…
Lmao
Edit: wait did you do that on purpose?
Holy fuck that can’t be real. I’m almost convinced to make an account just to see if they’re trolling. Is this how they recruit?
lemmy.ml is run by nannie-state fucktards that masturbate with such silly displays of power.
Well aa long as there’s consent
Well, since the poster had their own comment censored, obviously not.
obviously
Implied. Not obvious. They could be into that.
Holy shit is this a joke or did they actually remove the word bitch?
They definitely removed the word removed, those bitches
Bitch whaat ?
This is hilarious because the instance you signed up to doesn’t allow you to say bitch.
This caused so much confusion for me lol. Bitch.
growing up with a single mom, an older sister, and a younger sister… there were only a couple word that were never acceptable
I could say shit fuck asshole motherfucker and so on
but the words Cnt and Btch were absolutely unacceptable
I remember one time, I was about to call my little sister a B*tch and I didn’t even know my mom was in the room but before I could even get the word out of my mouth, she smacked me so hard. I was like BUT THEY SAY IT ON TV SO IT MUST BE OK. Yeah that was the day I got a good lesson in how rules work for something and not for other but the rules mom makes are the only real rules you have to follow in life
I mean I’d rather have someone called a bitch than a kid being “smacked so hard”.
Ok, thanks for sharing, but nobody is forcing you to write bitch. Not everyone has a trauma like you.
Ah yes, child abuse, the best way to teach kids not to use slurs. /s
Had you been attempting to call her a fuckface with shit for brains would that have been fine?
That seems like an odd enforcement of rules if so, you’d think any vulgar disparaging remarks would count, or none, but to be that highly selective is odd.
you don’t have a close relationship with a woman do you?
What does having women in your life have to do with calling general slurs? Are they allergic or something?
Can I say dick in front of them or will they start fuming at the mouth?
You mean other than your mom?
Your mom sounds like a bitch
So glad I suck dick
As if gay men aren’t ever catty bitches.
You cant win I see
The only winning move is not to play
But you lose by timeout
In that relationship, a timeout would be a win.
answer me fucker! are you cheating on me with that bitch?!
Sometimes it is just about choosing which fight you want to have today.
Nice username and even a guest star character of voyager
Thank you.
I’m choosing Raya today
You can say bitch on the internet
Imma try.
<Ahem>
Bitch.
Cool.
I read this and my phone exploded :/ sorry but the puritans win again
I read this comment and now MasterCard keeps calling me.
The thing OOP is sick of is people censoring mild swears like bitch in their screenshots. The content of the pic is unrelated
You can blame prude corporations who don’t want to see those words next to their ads for that.
Thanks for elaborating
How does sucking dick negate this behavior… I’ve sucked plenty of dick that would do shit like this, needless to say those dicks only got sucked once
Harder to answer when your mouth is full I guess
yeah i’m sure there are plenty of girls with dicks who’d be just as aggravating lol
Baby please…
No, not again… Not after last time. It was like getting blasted by a firehose and it was not pleasant.
Is that from UHF?
YOU FOUND THE MARBLE!!
No Kuzco. List sucks.
No Kida either wth
Kuzco isn’t a princess, that would be a demotion

She certainly has the mentality of a 14 year old
TIL Disney sucks at drawing 14-16 year olds. this is like Hollywood casting 30 year olds as highschool students
It’s just the artists not being as nasty as the producers.
I mean… Technically the question is about being pretty. I can think of girls being pretty without actually thinking sexually of them. The same way I can think of some guys being handsome and I don’t suck dick.
Idk have you tried it? Maybe you’d be good at it
No, I haven’t tried it, I might be good at it indeed, I might be amazing, or hell, I might give the best blowjobs in the world. I will leave it at the possibility of being the best cock sucker before I discover I am mediocre at it, I guess I cannot try it then.
🤦🏻 sigh… Just put on the maid outfit and cat ears already.
A few of them are 18+. Elsa, Anna, Cinderella, and Pocahontas I think.
But whether they are real people, cartoons, or sheogoraths from the fifth dimension. It’s a shit game that only a shit partner would play.
Lore wise? Snow white, obviously
Fairest of them all is a skin tone thing.
Got anything you want to add to that, Siegfried 🧐?

Yeah. I played that biach in poker and she cleaned me out. Pay sure she had her little animal friends informing on my card.

All hail Princess Trunks!
For the sake of the Saiyan race, Broly has my permission to bed Princess Trunks.
Why did they take a screenshot, and then tilt the picture? Wtf is wrong with these people…
“Why is this post in my shitpost community all shitty? How dare they”
this is probably the funniest thing I have read today
Fair
fixed it
needs more jpeg
ENHANCE!
We can go deeper!
And censor it? I hate humans.
Eww. Self censorship. 🤮
I liked Ariel when the movie came out. It’s not pedophilia because I was 12 at the time.
Not a pedo. But you’re clearly into beastiality
Half-bestiality, at least.
Why the shit are you censoring the fucking word “bitch”? Were on lemmy shitpost. We don’t censor here
Naw, you gotta lean in.
Which bitch asked that before me?
the cutest one
