The idea that the only reason I'm not straight is a lack of attraction to the entire female body *minus the vulva* is insane. Exactly 0% of the female body is inherently arousing to me. Masculine features on a female body doesn't turn those wheels for me. If I had interest in having sex with female people I'd have skipped those extra steps and just sought out a female partner, with kids and the whole nine yards. Don't come to me 20 years after I settled this in my head asking why I'm not into vagina. The answer is no.

I just had a very old and dear friend express the "unvaxxed people are stupid and if they die of COVID they deserve it" sentiment to me, and I've sat and thought a while before responding. I managed to express why this bothers me so much, and will share in this thread. 🪡🧵 1/6 The sentiment my friend expressed is really not uncommon. I think the fear that was pounded into people by the corporate media and public health messaging is largely to blame, but I can't pretend I don't find the thinking flawed and frankly abhorrent. 2/6

It may horrify some viewers to learn this, but most gay men don't center their entire lives around women.

This and more news of horrific misogyny at 11. Things I don't need:

• incessant reminders that lesbians / women have it worse.
• demands to frame issues through a victim hierarchy.
• approval from strangers based on the fact that we agree on a few controversial subjects.

I regret to inform Harry Styles that the 80s did in fact happen.

While there's plenty of harmless good fun to be had in gender-bending, it's pretty weak to talk as if you invented something new and revolutionary when it was being done by better artists before you were born. Looks like some Harry Styles stans are big mad. 😂

3 years ago today I checked into rehab. I haven't touched drugs or alcohol since, and I don't miss them.

It's easily the best decision I ever made. I'd be lying if I said I don't regret not getting help sooner or better yet, never starting at all. I wasted so much time and money, and did some pretty awful things.

I made a Honeycrisp apple pie with crumble top. Happy Thanksgiving 🍁 First I macerated the peeled, sliced apples in ½ cup of sugar, 1 tbsp dark maple syrup, and a bit of lime juice for about 30 minutes. Then I strained the juice and set the fruit aside.

My mother told me this morning that while she did have an ultrasound while pregnant with me, they wouldn't tell her my sex by policy back then. So I asked how anyone knew I'm male and apparently it was in fact revealed at birth by a method called "look down, see penis." 🧵 1/9 I was aghast. "You mean there isn't a shadowy cabal of doctors in a worldwide conspiracy to arbitrarily assign a gender to each and every baby, sentencing them with the stroke of a pen to a life sentence in gender prison?!" 2/9

THREAD: Do you want to know why I refuse to be silent in the face of what mainstream “LGBTQ+” voices say about gender and sex now on Twitter? Because they’re purporting to speak for me, and they don’t tolerate dissent. It’s the fucking Rainbow Borg–assimilate or be destroyed. It took as long as it has for me to start showing my spine because I honestly don’t WANT to hurt anyone, especially not the vulnerable. But I will *not* be forced to agree with concepts that I find patently insane nor nod along while pseudoscientific garbage is spewed everywhere.
