This is a question primarily for the queer comrades but of course any of yall can comment.

Recently I saw some criticism of the symbol's use because so few of those who wear it ever had to actually experience it.

Personally I wear it on my jacket, and have worn it for several years. I don't think I'll remove it, but I was curious about other people's thoughts.

Came across this about a month ago and so glad I did, absolutely some of the best grindcore/breakcore that I've heard in a long time. All their stuff is free to download from bandcamp as well.

So I've been in a relationship with my boyfriend for coming on 8 years now. It's been mostly really good, but more recently I've been feeling less into it. This is my first real relationship and I can't help but feel that I've missed out on a part of myself because of it.

It's not been helped recently because I've met someone, and I've really clicked with her, in a way that I hadn't with him. Thing is, I don't want to end my relationship with him necessarily. Recently I've been coming to realize that monogamy has never sat right with me, but when I brought this up to him he immediately shut it down and made a comment about poly people just wanting to cheat.

Idk, I don't think I'm really looking for answers about this, mostly just venting.

Been thinking about this song a lot since what happened with Aaron Bushnell, thought I'd share it.

The last few months have been absolute hell because of this, me and my partner are somehow the only non cishet people at this whole thing despite it having like 300 guests. This is also right after I started estrogen and it's been nonstop "this is the groom's brother" bs. To be fair I've not told anyone but it still feels shitty. We've basically been forced back into the closet for the last like 6 months.

On top of this, they've been giving almost no info about plans to our family, everything is by the seat of our pants which is doubly bad because it's a Sikh wedding and our side is almost entirely made up of wasps so people really don't know what they're doing.

It's the last event today and I feel like I'm gonna tear off my skin.

edit: wanted to add, I love my new sister-in-law, she's lovely, but if I have to hear them talk about fucking harry potter again and try to get me to see the cursed child I'm gonna scream lol.

I want really badly to love this game, which I think I do beside a few nitpicks honestly, but the fact that I'm regularly experiencing bugs that make the conversations nearly unplayable is starting to make me hate it a little.

In every session I've played I've experience approval messages disappearing in milliseconds leaving me with no idea how my party is reacting, conversations moving forward before a character is finished speaking, to not even being shown what my dialogue options even are.

I know that the game is almost impossibly large with an insane amount of interacting mechanics, but after 3 years of early access I kind of expected issues as prominent as these to be mostly ironed out.
