I'd like to preface this with an open encouragement for people who find my behaviour uncomfortable to simply block me. I will most likely block people who post "vol"cel police from now on, because it triggers my queer trauma.

I'm motivated to write this after I went around my apartment hiding my fairy lights, my fuzzy bathroom rug, my flower scented deodorant and other stuff which might out me as gay to the workers who will come today to install my Internet and lamps. I do not want to risk getting attacked or having someone sabotage my home due to homophobia.

The society hates queer sexualities. They want us neutered or at the very least scared into silence. There is no "vol"cel police when it's not voluntary. And memeing queer people into silence about our sexualities if frankly homophobic and I have to get it off my chest, because it's eating me up and perhaps other people too who may lack the ability to articulate it or are scared to speak up in fear of repreccussions.

I am queer. My sexuality is queer. I am an ally to ace people and if they find my queer behaviour uncomfortable, I'm happy for them to block me. But I also identified as ace incorrectly for myself, because I was so systematically stigmatized for it my depression and fear were neutering me. I will not be silenced. I went to liberal "queer" spaces where I had my very tame messages banned, I literally had "tfw no top bf" banned in a space which wasn't designated for minors, because "top refers to a sexual position". My queer sexuality is a sexuality. I find cocks and balls hot. I am not sorry for that, even though my first instinct was to write "sorry" after that statement. I've been apologizing for my existence my entire life, still do, but I know I shouldn't and I feel really bad having to explain this in a supposedly queer friendly space. Again, if my open queerness makes you uncomfortable, use the block button. You can literally use one click not to see me. It's as easy as this. But don't you dare to silence my queerness. Yes, it's sexual. No, again, I will not apologize for it. Hell, literally all of the posts I've made which received the volcel police response were made with 0 horny. I go years without feeling any kind of horny from exhaustion, depression and fear. I got scared out of my home by homophobes, got kicked out by homophobes, very likely got denied housing by homophobes who merely will not tell me the reason. I am visibly queer. People can tell hearing me speak, seeing me move, seeing how I look like, including my anatomy. I'm not here to discuss the prejudice people face based on looks. It's just how it is. The prejudice I experience isn't based off of gender roles. It's based off of homophobia. Homophobes can tell us and will act upon them identifying us. Sometimes their identification is misplaced, but they act upon it all the same. They don't care if you're a masc gay. They hate you for being gay. Gayness or queerness is the true reason behind the hatred. And I will not hide mine nor be gaslight into hiding it by homophobia disguised as a meme.

Sorry if you make a response and I cannot respond. The mobile data is very low, but I'm supposed to get the normal Internet today.

I wish all unapologetic queer people a very good day and homophobes hiding behind memes a very mediocre day. If you try to gaslight me, I will probably just block you, because I'm tired of homophobes thinking they're hiding when they're in plain sight.

Why? So I or someone else can use https://browse.feddit.de/ to find any interesting communities they may have and opt us in. I'm adding us into tons of cool leftism related stuff, but there may be some I miss. A list of who we are opted in with would help, as any announcement when we opt into another instance in the future. I am happy to do the work, I just need to have some extra knowledge to do it more efficiently.

I've been working for over three 3 years in the game industry as a QA, but previously only for two huge names and now for a medium sized one. I've never done indie. I tried hitting up indie devs when I saw issues offering free help, but they were never interested. I was wondering if there was a more organized form where I could seek either low paid or even volunteer positions. Since I ditched mass platforms such as YouTube, I have more time on my hands and was thinking it may be a way to use it.

Some users want to horny post and some want to filter it out. It would resolve the conflict.

I find myself accidentally leaving Lemmy. The icon marking an outbound link isn't very noticeable depending on the image it loads behind it and the amount of user brain activity (for me it's extraordinarily low when scrolling).

I think it's one feature missing from all the text-based websites. I do not watch videos at all. I use text-based media because I cannot interact with else than text and images. It would further improve the speed at which you load the website and improve content quality for all the other people who do not interact with video content. By adding this we'd set a much higher experience standard for users.

Sometimes what you want is not what you need. :( Now I feel bad over spending money on something I cannot use. ;_;

I cannot top up for a custom amount nor the amount I need (9,98/10 euros). I have to inconvinience myself and do it twice for 5 euros or commit and pay 20 euros. This is annoying me so much, I want to bite off toes off of the person who invented this.

I can load an entire website with videos and then load videos in 720p, but I cannot load my inbox with one notification. It should be a miniscule amount of data. I was wondering how the data downloads are being parted. Unread and All seem to be separate based on the loading icon, but are they also separate in regards to downloading them? Is the inbox being partially cached or not? Do pages get downloaded separately or do you pre-download other pages?

Either way, I feel like a way to counter it may be if users were given the option to disable downloading media unless clicked on. Maybe add an option to disable avatars too. I've seen some users having animated avatars and I wonder how much of a download that causes for me. I mainly use Lemmy on the go so on mobile Internet and I won't lie, it's been a struggle at times.

Law is complicated for many reasons. Private people (here referred to as the personally taxed) don't have the means, both financial and time, sometimes also the ability to understand the language used in lawmaking, which isn't made to be easily understood, to keep up with the law. Normally people aren't really expected to, if you're a "good" person (morality being subjective and cultural, of course), you're unlikely to break a law and get punished for it (not diving into edge cases of people forced by their circumstances). But then you're forced to comply with tax law. If it's automated, you can get unrightfully made to pay more without your knowledge. If it's not, you get forced into a game staged against you. People shouldn't be taxed. Tax should be solely handled by the companies, because they have the means to hire people dedicated to taxes. I feel like this is very important and tax is frequently brought up in many ways, but I don't see people speaking of this and I'd love to!

Disclaimer: I file for tax literally refreshing for it to be available and help other people with their tax. It's precisely why I think personal taxation is wrong. I know too many people who paid way too much in tax and didn't know and cannot claim it, because it's been too long since.

I needed to buy cutlery since I've moved into an apartment with nothing in it. All stores had were multipack sets of expensive cutlery. A tripack of just knives or just forks or just spoons cost 7 euros! 7! So I ordered a set of just a fork, a knife and two spoons of varifying sizes. And, of course, I ordered them in gold. Just to gay, for gay is justice. UwU

I was kicked out of rentals multiple times for being visibly queer. I was scared out of some more by people who even moved after me, but made my life a living hell just for being queer. I was driven into near daily crying during highschool by my peers and sometimes even teachers. I was regularly spat on in public with no reaction from other people. I had a car full of tank top wearing men stop with the intention of beating me up when I was in middle school because they thought I looked too much like a "f*g". To see people, some of whom apparently so privileged they don't even experience systematic queerphobia as per own admission, claim us here aren't queer is so hurtful because it feels like it dismisses my entire lifetime of queer pain. Sincere fuck you to the people who make those claims. Maybe you are the one who isn't even queer and just sows discord amogus.
