Ouch! That sucks. It's kept snowing here... We've probably got like a metre of it now. I'm afraid if I let the cat out she'll just disappear, lol!

Geralt raised his tankard in a toast. ‘To Zoltan Chivay! Toughest dwarf I’ve ever known!’ ‘Only the toughest dwarf?’ Zoltan hiccuped. ‘Zoltan Chivay is the mightiest warrior that ever lived! I killed . . . I killed five—five Geralt! Five in that last wave alone!’ The Witcher laughed. ‘Five, huh? Well, I’ll have you know, I killed fifteen. You’re tough, Zoltan, but you’re not,’ he stifled a burp, ‘not as tough as Geralt of Rivia!’ I sighed and rolled my eyes. ‘Never knew you two to be

Thinking is good, though, isn't it? I think sometimes fuck this, I'm going home can mean what you say, but in other cases it also means this is just too much effort. At least that's what it feels like when someone asks for help and you give them the tools they need, and then they just don't use them. Because in that case they're asking you to do it for them rather than to help them do it, and that's not anyone else's responsibility, certainly not marginalised groups and minorities.

Thank you for reading them. I understand how it might be difficult to understand. All of these are basically thoughts I've had when debating arseholes on the Internet, lol! From misogynists to homophobes, and practically all of them cis men. Some, like the Incel one, refer to real things that have happened in the world. If there are any other terms in the poems you're wondering about, feel free to ask.

Wow, I loved this. I mean, it's hot as fuck, but it's also quite tender, I think. I know that feeling, of finally having someone you've only dreamed about until now... It's what it was like with my boyfriend and me. The nerves at seeing each other. The way we couldn't help grinning like idiots until we got to his place and everything happened at once. We thought we'd get it out of our systems if we just met up and did it already, after months of texting and talking on the phone and on Skype. We didn't. lol! Thanks for sharing this.

That's totally valid. People have preferences, and there's nothing wrong with that. The only thing that matters is that you're respectful. Sadly, a lot of people (*cough*cis-gender lesbians*cough*) get super rude about it. I do maintain that if a straight man falls in love with a trans woman, that makes him no less straight even if she does have a penis. Same for a gay man who falls for a trans man. The genitalia of the person you sleep with doesn't necessarily dictate your sexual identity. Interestingly, girl dick is actually quite different from boy dick. Natalie talks about it in her Are Traps Gay video and it's super interesting. I've never had sex with a trans woman, so I had no idea how much hormones actually change how a penis feels, tastes, and behaves.

Thank you for reading them. That was exactly what I set out to do, in addition to sharing my frustrations a bit.

Exactly this. There's this idea that trans women with penises are 'traps' in the sense that they look like women, so they're 'luring' straight men into thinking they're 'real' women. (Of course, trans women are real women, but that's beside this particular point.) So a meme arose on 4chan going 'are traps gay?' As in, if you sleep with a trans woman who has a penis, does that make you gay? Some men who ask this question even fetishise trans women or they're into so-called futa-porn, futa being short for futanari, a Japanese expression that essentially means hermaphrodite. Futa-porn tends to be Japanese cartoon porn, or hentai, which is a big part of 4chan culture. If you want to learn more about the concept, I highly recommend Contra Points's Are Traps Gay video on YouTube.

A perfectly valid opinion. I name the chapters for the character whose point of view it's from. I was going to do it in third person, but in the end first just worked better and got the emotions across better. Most of my stories are written in third person limited. In some I switch between two characters between scenes, but I never switch mid-scene, I don't do omnipotent. I've been using more first person lately than I used to. I use different tenses between stories as well, and between format. I find short stories sometimes work better in present tense, because you get a sense of urgency, while with novels and novellas I prefer past tense. Either way it's fun to switch things up. I've never written in second person... Maybe one day. See, this I think gets confusing. At least when I'm writing it myself, I have a hard time keeping up. I stick to limited. It feels more personal as well, and my stories are very character driven.

Storms has chapters from first person POV of four different characters. Not everyone's cup of tea. I hardly ever do the same scene from more than one POV, though. I think there's one where I summarise a scene from one chapter in another one. Only briefly, though.

Thanks! Sorry you had a bad day. Hope tomorrow treats you better.
-
Good luck with your meeting, molly!
-
Yeah, but watching stuff doesn’t help me sleep. It wakes me up, especially if it’s good and I just wanna binge watch the whole thing, lol! Morning, DiC. Hope you all have a great Tuesday. I plan to do as little as possible this week and just hope I can finally shake this cold. I’m so fucking sick of it...
-
Thanks for reading it! I’m glad you enjoyed it.

1. misandrist you said i hated men and i said that would be weird since i’m transmasculine you said there was nothing masculine about me that if i wanted to be a man i should act like one and i said if being a man means being a dick, then i know few men you said fuck this and went home 2. incel she said no so he took a gun and shot three people for the crime of being women who wouldn’t hav

Night, tim! I’m heading off, too. Why do I start new shows just before bed time? Three episodes later... Goodnight, DiC. See you tomorrow!

Yeah, it’s very much a case of social conditioning with his dad. It’s not that he hates gay people at all, he’s just thoughtless. It’s how he was taught to behave, and sadly he has now taught his sons to behave similarly. Vicious cycle. Thanks so much for commenting!
-
I think he will. But I also think it’s hard to own up to something like that to his brothers. The coming out part is probably the worst, in a way. He’s so worried about what they will think. Thanks so much for commenting!

I am here to tell you that this show is amazing. It’s hilarious. The acting is great. I’ve only watched one episode and I love it so much. Highly recommended.

About to watch the first episoe of Sex Education on Netflix. I hear great things.
-
Sounds tasty.
-
Was it good? We had soup at D&D. It was yummy.
-
In that case, enjoy your dinner.

Evening, everyone! Well, it’s evening for me, don’t know if it is for all of you yet. Actually, not so much evening as night either... Yay, timezones! Sorry, I’m a little bit loopy cause I’ve had some kind of potent cough syrup. My cough has been really bad today. Played D&D today, lots of little puzzles to solve. It was fun. Boyfriend’s been job hunting. Probably won’t stay up very late tonight... Tired. What spooked you?

That’s how I feel as well. A kid like Loz needs help, discipline, and rehabilitation, not punishment. What he did was awful, but he’s unlikely to do anything like it again. The legal system would utterly fail him. Thanks for commenting!
