I really need people to understand that LGBTQIA people, our servers, and the things we discuss does NOT automatically mean NSFW. Often the most blatant NSFW I've ever seen are from cishet folks. This isn't to say some LGBTQIA folks can't be NSFW (they can), but it's the labeling ALL of us as such that's hurtful, problematic, and plays right into the conservative right's playbook of labeling us as sexual deviants to be erased from society. Don't do that.
I’d like to send a special “fuck you buddy” to all the boomers that told me “oh you’ll get more conservative as you get older, once you get some money” I don’t know what world those people live in, but every day since probably 1989 everything I have seen in the world has only convinced me more and more that capitalism is a disease that is destroying lives and the planet.
