Absolutely fair, I’m in the same boat. Though I’m a lesbian, so the only things going in there would be silicone :3

Never heard of a spitroast?

I like looking at “cookie-cutter” by its namesake. Cookie-cutters create shaped cookies of identical shapes. For an application, consider cookie-cutter houses. These are typically in neighborhoods where there are only a handful of unique blueprints for houses, and so there are tons of identical houses all “cut out” as if from cookie cutters. The Hallmark movie example refers to a handful of plots (as opposed to blueprints), where each movie is “cut out” of whatever cliché plot they choose from the incredibly small amount of plots Hallmark has.

Except that being forgetful isn’t something you can magically fix. Take it from someone with severe ADHD, I wish I weren’t as forgetful as I am, but there is nothing I can do about that for most things. “Resolve it early” is such an ableist and completely dismissive take that I can’t see how anyone would ever believe that’s a legitimate answer.

That isn’t what the post is about. It’s about the fact that society (specifically neurotypicals) believe that fulfilling the expectations of what others have for you is more important than your own happiness. That is the product of late stage capitalism, and is an utterly depressing way of viewing people. It distills people into simply the role that they serve for you, dehumanizing us. You can’t seriously be defending that? “Oh, you have a complaint about how the world works? I don’t care, learn to deal with it”. People are allowed to have disagreements about how things work and point out the disservice it does to humanity. Your ignorance and dismissal of that fact is insensitive.

Still being dismissive; it’s very clear what they’re talking about, and you do nothing but whine about semantics by pointing this out.

Missing the point completely here. One should be allowed to decide who they show physical affection to. It is not our responsibility as humans to serve the needs of other people against our will, yet that is exactly what we are expected to do.

Where is this one even coming from? I see nothing here about intimacy with strangers. If you’re going in order through this list, I can only assume you’re talking about the point discussing informing people of your preferences? I don’t see anything intimate about that whatsoever. I certainly don’t see anything even remotely alluding to “unloading your worries” onto them.

Etiquette, at its core, was invented by the rich as a way to seem superior to the poor. It exists solely to enforce classism through meaningless mannerisms that serve no positive function. It exists to serve rich people with a superiority complex, and to degrade those of lower class. It isn’t a form of respect; it’s an artificial system that was created so the rich can look down at the “uncivilized” poor.

See? I can be dismissive of your entire comment, too. Except my points have an actual basis in reality, which seems to be missing from much of your comment. :3

What are you doing here, anyway? You see a post indicating the things that someone has learned through childhood trauma, and just make it your mission to invalidate all of their experiences? For those of us who have experienced the same trauma (mostly us neurodivergent folks), this post serves as a relatable way to lighten our mood, by acknowledging our shared trauma. There is nothing “dark” or “upsetting” about this to anyone with a soul. If your first instinct when hearing about the grievances someone has with the world is to attack them for speaking their truth, then I hardly have to wonder what kind of person you are.

No, it’s called Yuri on Ice because the characters’ names are Yuri (and it was also chosen to allude to gay romance, despite it being between men instead of women). This is a play on words by instead referring to the type of Yuri featuring sapphic romance, as opposed to the name. “Yaoi on Ice” would only make sense if someone’s name was Yaoi, though that isn’t a traditional given name, unlike the name Yuri.
