  • It’s a community choice. Has nothing to do with “tech savvy”. There are generalist communities, language orientated communities, activity orientated communities, and many more. Presenting it as a “technological choice” is just a meme at this point. It’s like saying “I want to live Paris because they speak French and love the night life” vs “you know what, I like beaches more and the island life where people are more about easy living, so I’ll go to Zanzibar”. But people frame it as if they had to choose the city because of the altitude, soil composition, which hemisphere it is on, the greenhouse ppms, and the wetbulb temperature. And then it’s repeated ad nauseam to keep the meme alive.

    Stop helping Facebook and Reddit by framing it as a technological choice. It’s a cultural one. “idgaf” --> take a generalist website. “I’m queer and it’s important” --> LGBTQIA+ website. “bits and bytes for me please” --> technological website. “I just can’t stop cumming” --> NSFW website.





  • Really depends on the skin color of the person visiting and where they are visiting in that country. A non-white visiting most West-European cities will be mostly fine, but if they go out to the country-side, things can be very different.

    I watched a documentary of an Indian boy adopted to a Swiss family who then went back to India to visit. He had a terrible time in Switzerland due to racism and nearly as an awful time in India, because he couldn’t speak the language and people thus assumed he was a Pakistani spy.



  • Why are people so weird about sex? It’s nothing special. It happens all around the world, probably millions of times per day, we’re all here because of it, it’s natural, and with consent it is probably one of the least harmful things humans can do to each other. People should be given the place and time to engage in sexual activities comfortably, safely, and lovingly. They should be able to get to know their own bodies and explore those of others to learn and have fun.

    It’s the parents’ job to create a good environment where the children can feel comfortable talking to them about sex and learning important lessons from them e.g that porn is not a good representation of what happens in a bedroom, how important communication during sexual activities is (verbal or otherwise), how every partner is different, and so on.

    Be the good parent.
