  • Don’t answer these to me, but here are some questions to ask yourself: Can you sexually fantasize about being with a woman, to the point of satisfaction? If you don’t experience sexual attraction, can you fantasize about being with a woman in romantic ways similar to ways you enjoy with men? Have you read f/f erotica and felt anything? None of this is definitive, but it might answer your question to the degree you need it answered.











  • The problem is that moderators here and on reddit (i believe?) are volunteers, so they are going to have personal limits on what they’ll accept. And if they can’t have those, they won’t do it. Someone else will have to volunteer for an unpaid position that can take up lots of their precious time on this earth.

    Start a mod fund and pay people, is my suggestion. The only rewards at the moment for moderating are, like, a smoothly running community. Tiny, mostly irrelevant power. Being a big fish in a small pond. Personal satisfaction? You can get that being treasurer at your local beading club, but there you get to mess around with beads. I dunno.

    As for making different platforms, there also has to be someone willing to do that work. Mostly thankless, and you’ll always get it wrong somehow. I’m amazed anyone bothers.


  • I’m not really confused by them commissioning music. I’ve seen like, murals and so on in airports. I also like the idea of using recordings of background noise to make a track. It’s the idea of playing ambient airport noises in an airport that confuses me. But that’s art, I suppose. Something to think about. I don’t think me being confused by the thought process here - knowing very little about the theory being ambient music - is a sign of the death of an empire. There’s plenty of those around.






  • The vagueness of these posts get to me a bit. Do they like clean sheets cause they feel nice, or do they change their sheets in the middle of the night because they might’ve sweat on them and they can’t stop thinking about it? People use OCD too casually, but people also take someone talking about their illness, latch onto the part easiest to minimize, and run with it.

    If you think you might have OCD, get diagnosed and get care if you can, but if that’s not possible, find some legitimate, useful advice from reputable sources.

    If you can’t stop thinking that you’re probably faking, it doesn’t hurt people who have been diagnosed for you to take some books out of the library and find out if the advice helps you. In fact, it lets the library know those resources are in demand so they’ll be there for others, later.
