exocrinous

Yes. I believe in all gods and myths, and I hadn't consciously thought that I believe in Krampus before, but now thanks to you, I realise I do.

Honestly I might just go back to Reddit at this rate. Yeah, it's giving content to a capitalist, but it also means not subjecting myself to as much transphobic and ableist abuse

Moderation on Lemmy is so miss or miss. I once got banned from an "inclusive" comm for sounding "pompous". I have NPD, pompousness is a symptom. And it wasn't a situation where I was causing any problems, a power tripping mod just didn't like my tone of voice.

This enby wakes up to the Cheers theme every morning

The summary is a lie. The crisis isn't over it expanding differently in different places. It's that two measurement methods give different results.

Well technically it would be skepticism

My country never let tipping culture cross over from America, and we never have to worry about that tipping stuff Americans complain about. When cheap credit card machines were still new, a bunch of businesses used American systems that asked for tips and employees and customers alike completely ignored that screen.

I only read the headline but if this is Bobby Kotick, he's just an all around piece of shit. He created a work environment so misogynist that multiple former employees described it as being like a frat, and a woman had her breast milk stolen from the employee fridge while the company did nothing.

See, and again I'm making a point about clearly observable facts, with the implication that trying to sense others' mental states is a normal part of communication between all people. But you're trying to make it all about me. I want to have a conversation about facts and universal habits of communication, but in the conversation you're trying to have, it's all about me. You're clearly very laser focused on me, to the point you won't listen as I try to talk about something other than myself, and you're lying about it. Why do you like obsessing over me so much?

So conversely, a drop in activity at a gay bar (which does not deliver to the Pentagon), also means shit is going down?

Can someone explain this?

Nobody in this thread mentioned "pure" virgin gfs or said virgin partners are better than sexually active partners. I was answering a question that's applicable to myself in a direct and literal sense by explaining my queerness. You responded with hostility, accused my queerness of being the result of an incel fetish, and used this other weird tangential thing to explain your actions while continuing to insult me. Did you at any point consider being nice?

Also you're being really pedantic in a linguistically inappropriate way. You keep stressing the point that there isn't a 1:1 relationship between asexuality and virginity. Nobody made that assertion. Somebody asked about virgins in relationships and asked what it was and I responded "it's called being asexual". That's not a statement that every virgin is asexual, nor is it a statement that every asexual is a virgin. It's a colloquialism establishing an explanation for at least one occurrence. You read superfluous meaning into something I said and proceeded to repeatedly I'm wrong about something I didn't say. It's mean, cut it out.
