I often get messaged on Fetlife by people I don't know asking to meet up with them to play.

I don't tend to do this anymore because of covid, so I'll simply respond "sorry, I don't meet up with strangers".

Women and queers tend to message back with something akin to "I totally understand, have a great week!"

Men almost always message back asking how to "not be a stranger", or they start arguing with me that they aren't a stranger because we're chatting/I know their name/we both live in Bathurst etc..

But it's like... why are you, a grown adult, unsure how to not be a stranger to someone? Like is the concept of learning about and becoming friends with another person that much of an alien idea to you?

Also, I'm not a vending machine you pay friendship into until I fuck you - and I get the irony of this, seeing as I often fuck my friends.

It's interesting how it's always the men with the "LordMasterDivineDomlyGod" names who make declarations of how sadism/masochism works for everyone*, and when you question what they've said they decide you're the one being stubborn and ignorant?

Like, my guy.. my little guy, it's ok that other people experience things in different ways to you. It's really ok.

* brought to you by the ever pervasive bullshit idea that sadists are naturally dominant and masochists are naturally submissive, because sadism is active and dynamic, but masochism is passive and receptive.

Him:
I'm in security. I'm a consultant.

Me:
OK, well I don't play with anyone who is a cop or works cop-adjacent, like in security companies.

Him:
Umm well actually it's finance security. I'm not a security guard

___
1. You said security, my guy.
2. That's not really any better.
3. Still not interested.

.../... Gennez gaf toe dat ze niet met zekerheid wist hoeveel geïnterneerden momenteel in Vlaamse woonzorgcentra verblijven. “Ik vind dat zelf ook stuitend”, zei ze eerst. “Justitie ‘denkt’ dat het er 28 zijn”, verduidelijkte ze later.../...

Even schreeuwen in de woestijn: 'geïnterneerden' en 'woonzorgcentra'
Hoe is dat toch mogelijk? Elk die daarin beslist en/of meedoet is verantwoordelijk. Hoe durven ze mensen zo in gevaar brengen, en niet in het minst de verzorgenden!

.../... Portugal zal geen F-35's kopen...
De minister van hun Defensie... motiveerde de beslissing door te verwijzen naar de wispelturigheid van de Amerikaanse president Donald Trump.... De Portugese regering maakt zich zorgen dat de VS het land de toegang tot software updates en reserveonderdelen zouden kunnen ontzeggen...

🤘Eindelijk een EU land met ballen. Ik hoop dat hun luchtmacht Europees kan aankopen!

Klein detail:
"Voortaan" betekent "van nu af aan" of "in het vervolg".
Het suggereert dat de nieuwe toestemming of regelgeving zonder uitstel van kracht is.

Kop #dS:
Studenten mogen binnenkort tot 650 uur per jaar werken

Kop #Nieuwsblad:
Plafond voor studentenarbeid wordt opgetrokken naar 650 uur per jaar

En tada...de kop in #HLN:
Studenten mogen voortaan 650 uur werken.

Weggemoffeld in wel tien HLN paragrafen verder en in een kleine voorlaatste zin:...'wetsvoorstel'

Tja...

I run a local kink group on Facebook, and in November called someone in about being a chaser.. they decided to leave instead of engaging with the conversation about how chasing and the fetishisation of trans bodies is actually transphobia. After they left I attached a ban to their account so they couldn't rejoin and start shit because I had a feeling...

They've just tracked me down on Fetlife - 5 months later - and started drama in multiple groups there about it ("you banned me for no reason!"), posting in groups I'm in and commenting on threads I've posted in.

...but I made a mistake for banning them? 🤔
