That said, seen this discussion around on twitter a lot and some good points were brought up. No one's going to be scarred for life if they see someone with a collar or weird **** written on shirts. Not like you don't already see much worse in everyday life.

I am not part of the LGBT community, so it's not my right to say who belongs in it and who doesn't. I have my opinions, but in the end, it's not my say. HOWEVER, one of the things that pisses me off so much are the people within the LGBT community that are hypocritical about their own community.
Pride parades and the concept of the community was forged as a defiance against the heterosexuals who claim that their sexuality is a "myth," or that it's a "choice that can be reverted and doesn't exist." Pride is also a celebration about love and acceptance, so why the hell are the people in the community going ahead and saying "Pansexuality isn't real," "Asexuality isn't real," etc, just like heteros treat them about their own sexuality? It's one thing to actually protect the community from false members, like how pedophiles are trying to claim that their immoral lust is a "sexuality" and must be "respected as an LGBT sexuality," but it's another to create entire arguments and debates on sexualities that are totally innocent. You can believe what you want about each sexuality, but I believe it hypocritical to exclude them from the community and flat out claim they don't even exist. Like, I just saw this post on Twitter that was so cute and supportive. However, if you look in the comments, you have people saying "lmao take the pansexual flag out," and they are people OF THE LGBT COMMUNITY. LIKE HELLO?? Basically those comments are what sparked this little rant out of me. Again, I'm not in the community, so in the end it's not my say or battle. I just have a lot of friends with diverse and beautiful identities who once felt like they can belong within the LGBT community. And it literally breaks my heart to see them have to defend their own sexuality/identity AGAIN in the community they THOUGHT they were accepted in.

No TheFlyingSeal what you said is 100% valid, doesn't matter if you're in it or not. I'll also throw in the usual "bi people are inherently transphobic" for people that like to ignore definitions to start a fight.
Unfortunately, being oppressed doesn't necessarily make you good when you start to break free of that struggle. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make someone that gets off on putting others down be a nicer person.

To me it's more of a distinction from bi of 'yeah I'm interested in this part on this gender, or this part of the other one, or even this way someone might be presenting, or one that might or might not apply to several' compared to pan's 'i like this in every single one regardless of presentation, the specific bits don't matter'.

The wording on that, Sess, is what has stemmed a lot of arguments. The idea that Bisexually inherently is holding onto the "binaries". A lot of the pan vs bi arguments infer that bisexuality is transphobic or anti-nonbinary identities because of it. A lot of the pan erasure that happens is because of that argument and aggressiveness about bi erasure.
Honestly there are about four different sexualities that involve being attracted to two or more 'genders' and its entirely up to the person to see which of the labels fit them. They heavily overlap and should have a lot more support between eachother than they do. They can exist all at once, and none of them are inherently more or less better than the others. A better way to separate the idea of Pan/Bi I have found people using more these days is "bi is two or more, often showing a preference" so they are people who may like people of all gender identities but often finds themselves liking one or two more frequently. It's all up to the people who identify as it to define how it is distinct. I personally ID as Pan, though I say Bi to make it easier on other people because of the debating of differences. I ID as Pan because even though I do often find my self with preferences I don't really think about gender when it comes to the liking of someone. So, I may frequently find myself crushing on male/masculine people but it isn't the fact that they are masculine/male which leans into my attraction. But that is just my definition of it, and I understand it might not be the same as other's ideas.

after several years of being active for like a few days then dropping off the face of the earth for months, i think it's time that i come out and say a lot of the bull that's happened. spoilers for simplicity, as it's all pretty sensitive material.
i will start off by saying that currently, there is little to nothing wrong, everything has subsided within the past few weeks or so, but it took a very long time to get there. court is finally over and this information can be somewhat public, as long as no names or ill intent is involved. i have lost a lot of association during the years i've been on and off, but i respect boundaries and won't go spreading things everybody knows aren't true. but hey, i have a new life now and i've decided to move on since things have been hard enough. i have lost friends, acquaintances that i long to talk to again but fear the idea... i have even lost people i considered family because of my decisions. as a few members may know, before october of last year, i lived in an abusive household. there was screaming, yelling, drug use at times, heavy drinking, verbal insults, and fist fights with my mother over things she never did (that were never caused by me anyway). it wasn't really my bio parents either, as my dad refuses to be a big influence in my life now since he found out some things about me that aren't things a star-child would do and my mother was stuck with a drunk for thirteen years. thankfully, i got out of the situation because of my soon to be spouse. in the past two months (while i have been far away), i have dealt with bunches more than i thought i would. admittedly, i thought about not talking to my mother at one point. her abusive ex had left the house a few months prior of me moving out, but seemed to sneak right back in. i really didn't like that since i was under the impression that it would never happen again. me moving caused a lot of financial instability for my mother and sister, so he wiggled back in while saying he would pay all of mom's bills (since he is pretty rich compared to a lot of other people in the town i grew up in. i grew up in a pretty slummy town myself, so it was almost unheard of for someone to have money and live in a garbage place like that. so in november, since i left, he came back... and as every person in the family who matters knows, he started getting hostile again within just a few weeks. he would yell at my mother, curse her out, punch her and her child, and even accuse her of sleeping around even though she never left the house unless it was to get groceries. this lasted until exactly easter morning, where he struck my mother and tried to take off with my sister and bring her all the way to the other side of the country without ANY consent. a few court dates, years of trying to persuade my mother to do this earlier, and an emergency flight back to a place near my hometown later, everything is okay. my mother has gotten pretty much full custody over my sister and they are currently living with us until they can get on their feet and move out. i don't really mind it since my sister is easy and mom really needs the help with how she's legally disabled due to her degenerative illnesses. this really isn't all of it, but it's the most recent part of what's going on really. i really hate spilling but i really miss some people here and never really get the chance to hop on. if anyone who i was friends with sees this and wants to contact me, i will happily give out my discord. |

I took a year of college Latin and I can say it's a very interesting language. The grammar is very complex and can be difficult especially if you're not familiar with some of the basics of romance language grammar, but it's still really cool to learn about. Good luck if you decide to go through with it! I had a fun time learning it.

I'm wary about people who constantly gives someone gifts to show their affection.
It's nice if it's the occasional "I saw this in the store and thought of you!" Even big, extravagant gift giving on special occasions are super sweet!! But the moment it turns yikes is when they use their gift giving to buy your friendship, or even try to turn it around and make you give them equally as much gifts. It's very materialistic and empty. To give an example, this girl I was once best friends with gave everyone Valentine's Day presents. Sweet, right? However, she proudly told each and everyone that she was giving them presents. This, of course, made everyone (including me) try and find a good present for her that would make her happy. Because it's kind of an asshole move to be given a present on Valentine's Day and not give one back, especially if you know it's going to happen. Then during Valentine's day, she was moping the whole time that no one gave her any roses...despite me giving her an eternal rose that was her favorite type of rose (which, I might add, the real thing is one of the rarest and most expensive?) So her friends, who heard this moping, took time out of their schedule and got her roses. At the time, I thought this was sweet, but looking back after realizing that she never truly cared for me as a friend, I see this as an example of how manipulative and controlling she is. The gifts she gave were really sweet, she even got my boyfriend involved to help her find the right gift for me, but pulling back the curtain reveals that it she did this because she wanted gifts equally as nice back. To end my little confessions/rant, it's okay if you express your love for another person with a gift you know they'd really like. It's sweet, and I do it too. There's nothing better than seeing a person's face light up when you got them an amazing gift. However, there are more things you could do to express your love for them: helping them when they're in emotional distress, tell them how proud you are when they accomplish something, remind them how happy you are to be their friend, spend time with just them doing something they like. Don't rely on gift giving, because it may make the friendship feel empty and based on materialism. It can also cross a line when you try to use "expression" for your own materialistic needs, rather than true expression.

I honestly think Endgame significantly effected the box office of films released after it. Godzilla is doing fine, but still under preformed, Detective Pikachu did well, but not much as anticipated, Men in Black International is out right struggling, and Secret Life of Pets 2, while did well due to it's budget, hasn't even reached $200 mil yet despite being out for several weeks and it being the sequel to a movie that made a total run of $875 million. You think by now it'd be at least $240 mil. I know there's a couple of months difference between these films, but Endgame without a doubt effected their performance in some way, whether due to theater fatigue or people wanting to see Endgame multiple times.
As much as I love Endgame, it effecting the performance of other films is *bad*.

As much as I like him as an actor, and as a person, he's one of my favorite people in Hollywood, and think he and I would actually be good friends IRL, I do have to say this: I think Tom is sorta overrated and is also being milked the thuck outta him. Yeah, he's talented, good looking, and seems like a great dude, but the amount of praise he gets is absurd. On the fan side, people are acting like he's going to be the next biggest star in the world (Which, honestly, may happen for a bit, but not necessarily for the best reason, which I'll get to into a minute), and an almost impossibly talented as an actor. I remember when people were going nuts over "I don't want to go", I don't think I've ever seen that amount of overpraise until than. It just gets a bit grading. Tom's great, I love him, and I'm happy he's loved as much as he is but cool it down guys, even if just a bit.
Honestly, if Tom didn't get the Spider-Man role, he's be just another actor people may know, but not fully care about. That role gives him a lot of his power. And as for the milking, he's got Spider-Man, Uncharted, Chaos Walking, Doctor Dolittle, Spies in Disguise, Onward, and The Devil All The Time, but for this, I'm gonna focus on the first 3 films, as they're going to be franchises. Tom's gonna be handling three film franchises that's likely going to take multiple years to complete, and Spider-Man will only increase that. I'm worried he'll get burned out, and that the audience will get burned out. Now for Uncharted, it may just be 1-2 films, and then they'll get a more fitting actor to play Adult Nathan Drake, but I'm worried Sony will play stupid, and think Tom will grow into the role of Adult Drake, which we know's not gonna happen. Tom's great, but he can't carry that sort of role. I feel like these movies have Tom simply because he's a box office pull. From what I hear, Tom is the one who wanted to make Uncharted, which is a good thing, but I worry, as I said, Sony may plan to use him for ALL the Uncharted films, instead of the ones that use Young Nathan Drake. Anyway, that's just a ton of roles that he's handling right now, and I do worry it's get overwhelming for him, and potentially give the audience Tom Holland fatigue. Hopefully this post makes sense. I woke up, like, less than an hour ago, and this was just banging around in my head and just wanted to get it out. I'm actually curious about there people's thoughts on this. Please, if you'd like, leave some.

I agree. Tom is a fantastic, talented actor. He's very well rounded, and could probably do a whole number of roles (that are in his age group, of course). I'm happy he landed a huge role that gave him a lot more open doors to his career, but like you said, Hollywood is milking his popularity. But that's Hollywood!! They've been doing this for so long - once they find an actor the population adores, they want to put that actor in anything they can. What I'm more worried about is his fan popularity. Lately, fans have been entitled to his attention. Paparazzi has always been a thing for celebrities to worry about, but now celebrities have to add fans on the list too. To elaborate on what I'm trying to explain, I was on Twitter the other day, and saw a tweet about a young girl's story when she went to see Tom Holland for an autograph. Here's the article about it, where they quote the tweet itself: https://www.indiewire.com/2019...deo-1202152833/ I actually saw this tweet, even retweeting and liking it, because this poor girl was filming from an angle that looked like she was actually straight up laying down on the street. Then Tom stepped in, telling everyone to back up to help her stand, but the fans just wouldn't. They just kept pushing and shoving, and Tom got so angry that he actually threw their prints to the ground (since he threatened to if they wouldn't stop). There was even a picture of this, as well as a video from someone who was filming outside of the crowd. At first, I was like "Oh wow, Tom is such a great and wonderful guy! That's amazing." But after a while, I just couldn't stop thinking about how no fan had any decency during the signing. They weren't even listening to the actor they've placed on a golden pedestal. I don't know about you, but if an actor yelled at me to back off, I would. It just proves that the fans don't even see the actors as people anymore, but as individuals that cater to their desires and amusement. It's entitled, and it's dangerous.

It isn't about liking the person anymore, it's about being able to tell other's "Hey I met this super famous person which means I'm super cool, we even got a picture together/they signed my *insert generic item here*" which is honestly really sad. I had the chance to meet James aka TheOdd1sOut but I started to feel so awkward about the whole thing because of how gross Fan-Celebrity relationships have become that I ended up just staying home.

^This I went to Game Grumps Live a few weeks back, as my girlfriend and I are pretty big fans. We watch most of the series and streams, buy merch, etc, but we were completely appalled by how little respect a vocal minority of the fans were. Thankfully most of our location was pretty chill and asked good questions or interacted like normal human beings, but even though there were rules to follow emailed to ticket holders AND told before and during the show, some people just... chose to ignore them.
