This really has "30 year old trying to write college aged characters" energy. With a healthy dose of Tumblr fan fic writing thrown in there.
Microblog Memes
A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Are you saying it's fake and gay?
Fake and... Fake gay?
Careful, those boys will come after you
You seem to think I, of all people, would post quality content.
If it makes me smirk, it ends up on Lemmy.
Haha, yes. This is also every Zoomer Marvel/DC writer when they try to write teens.
Sweet. Really fucking weird.
Things can be two things at once.
Their explanation is way too weird. I think we can use occam's bisexual razor here:
I would bet that at least one of the hand holders is gay/bi and too afraid to say it... Which is fine. Sometimes it takes a bit of time (and handholding) to figure yourself out.
Physical contact between men being sexual is a cultural thing. Handholding is intimate, but not at all sexual... It's totally normal to do it with children for fucks sake
If you get past the cultural weirdness, it's just normal

Yes, it's a cultural thing. In our culture. Hence why I interpreted as such. If the whole thing had happened in the UAE that would be a different thing.
Culture gets hyper specific - individual groups can and do challenge cultural norms all the time, especially teens and young adults
Or someone's lying on the internet...
Sad that the immediate assumption is friends can't hold hands π
They canβt. As grandma always used to say, βif fingers are interlockinβ, you gotta stick your cock in.β
I have you tagged as "knows chemistry". I'm sure I meant the science, but I'll choose to trust you on this too.
Unrelated to the post and only focusing on the title, whenever anyone uses the ππ emojis, the only thing that comes to mind is the "middle-out" sequence in Silicon Valley
