But Nazicide is.

If you're hearing the outro, why not just go to the next thing?

And if that's limited because Spotify sucks (I have never used it), then get a podcast app that's not cancer. You don't even need a subscription for those (unless they're exclusive or something, in which case your taste is objectively bad, so have fun dealing with that).

I've said this since being a kid in the 90s.

There should be a huge collection (I called it a book or catalog at the time because the Internet wasn't widely available yet) that does all the different companies that do X things or provide Y service (kinda like yellow pages, but with more information than just a phone number) that is filterable in tons of ways (by default, region) and if you need or want anything you just look up who provides it and make your decision by the information available there.

But it should stay contained in that book (or whatever form it takes) and legally not be allowed outside of it. Every other piece of "free" content (podcasts, and people you find interesting) should actually be free.

But capitalism.

So it's not free. The cost is $0, but that is not the same as free.

I have never in my life seen in person anyone doing one of these dances.

They're mentioned so often that I just assume I should see phones on tripods on every inch of flat ground with people or trios doing choreography.

Are these really that common?

Was "trans chat rooms" put right next to "eggs" on purpose? Lol

I feel like everyone would have the knee jerk reaction. It's how you think about it and actually respond that's important.

But that initial stomach drop feeling is pretty natural. On its own without context, that's scary af

I was about to say that just sounds like capitalism.

Oh for sure. This guy is just flamboyant as hell and it just kinda seemed like this was part of it. No one else I've known did that. Again, small sample size bias, but that's why I thought to ask before assuming. I came here to see if these 2s added up to 4 just based on the vibe I felt.

Thanks for the input.

I'm late to learning a lot about this, I'm catching up on like 30 years of being whatever the opposite of woke is. Slept? I dunno.

Once someone I was close to came out I've been trying to learn a lot about LGBT stuff. I have him to learn a lot of it but he hasn't really heard of this and I've been wondering about it on the back burner. Got another story post just before I posted this, which reminded me to ask a broader audience than one dude.

I grew up(still in actually) a very red town so once I figured out LGBT people weren't mentally deranged and broke out of the religious bubble I was in (about 9 years ago for the religious breakout coming up on like 12 for figuring gay doesn't mean "going to hell".

It's been eye opening. Me and the guy I mentioned earlier that came out have been having movie day once a week, and I've seen a lot of gay and trans movies (recent examples are the birdcage and the Patrick Swayze drag movie that I forgot the name of)now and I just love the people in the rainbow so much.

I'm not switching teams, (sorry guys, I still want the ladies) but I don't feel gross about the entire concept anymore.

I said and thought a lot of stuff then that I come about now and I'm trying to be better now. If I was missing some context and learned about it here I woulda brought it up just to see if he was proud of the effort. But no dice for me.

This sounds like something steam would be willing to do. I have no idea if it is, but adding this feature ALONE will ward off a good bit of it, I'd think.

I was kinda meh about CoD. I stopped after BO2, haven't had any of them installed or played since it was dead. I didn't mind its continued existence, but I wasn't the target anymore.

But now I would guide a predator middle right on their headquarters and feel no guilt.
