kit conner isn’t queerbaiting you.

billie ellish isn’t queerbaiting you.

taylor swift isn’t queerbaiting you.

harry styles isn’t queerbaiting you.

REAL PEOPLE ARENT QUEERBAITING YOU!! it’s a term used in media literacy. no one owes you an explanation about their sexuality.

Sneha Solanki  ‘The Lovers’

Two networked machines, one infected with a virus, slowly infects the other through the interface of classic romantic poetry.

A breakdown in the relationship was inevitable once the virus had seeped into the memory of one machine and then into the other through a singular network cable affecting the poetic text files. Communication between the two deteriorated, leading to irrational & at times odd behaviour. Each machine reacted with equal confusion and conflict. The interface text became an illegible poetic mutation of itself.

[ID: two gifs showing the screens of the machines. on the left the first half of the love poem reads ‘The Lovers. Where, oh! Where, on his restless wing/ hath the spirit of love been wondering? I have been where passionate hearts/ beat high beneath the glow of an eastern /heav'n, And break with wild intensity.’ The poem continues on the right screen ‘so deep in love am i and i will love thee/ still my dear, Till a’ the seas gang dry and the rocks/ melt wi’ the sun/ I will love thee still, my dear/ while the sands o'life shall run.’ the text is shown in bright red on a black background. it gets progressively more corrupted until it is ineligible. finally an error message is shown on screen.

One time I was cooking with a girl and we were both bilingual but we didn’t have a language in common so we were just sitting by the fire doing prep work quietly and I was peeling little garlic cloves to mince and she put her hand on my arm to stop me and demonstrated how you’re supposed to press on the clove with the flat side of your knife to break the shell off all at once to peel it and I was like oh! And I imitated her and she nodded in approval and we went back to quietly peeling and mincing the garlic and I don’t want to be hyperbolic but in that moment I was like wow I truly understand the universal thread of human love and connection inherent in our souls or whatever

As an eye doctor, this shouldn't be controversial. It's a problem. 5 years ago, nighttime headlight issues were reserved for people with cataracts or LASIK scars. Today, everyone has problems seeing the road through the oncoming headlights. People are getting anti-glare and blueblocking coatings not bc they are sitting on a computer 8+ hours a day but bc the blue tinted halogens are making them feel unsafe to drive. We are selling insane amounts of yellow tinted nighttime driving glasses even though they're really only for people with cataracts bc ppl are desperate for anything that may help them deal with the headlights. I've had multiple patients tell me they just don't drive at night anymore.

This is an actual safety issue and it needs to be addressed

this is gonna enter my vocabulary for sure

question: do ppl ACTUALLY say things they don’t mean when they’re angry? or is that just an excuse after letting something true slip? i wouldn’t ever say something i don’t mean in anger, so the concept confuses me.

but something was said to me that is bothering me, though apparently was said in an argument and wasn’t meant. but i don’t rlly believe it wasn’t like, deep down true thoughts/feelings??? anyone have any insight? anyone say things they don’t mean in anger?

To my understanding (also autistic lol), there’s two things people mean when they say this, whether they know it:

1. “I said something I didn’t mean to say and I’m sorry I said it.” There are lots of things people leave unsaid because they know it’s unfair, irrational, or unnecessarily hurtful. Also lots of things that are just hurtful, so it’s a mixed bag

2. “I made a dumb leap of logic because my angry brain wasn’t working like my calmed brain.” This can apply to projection (“Why are you mad at me?”), paranoia (“I just know you’re about to break up with me.”), jumping to conclusions (“Oh, you just want to run off to that friend of yours, don’t you?”), etc etc

I think people usually mean the former but the latter definitely exists. Hope this helps

I'm not autistic but I have been in plenty of very angry arguments and so I can tell you that there is a Secret Third Thing™, which is "I said something not because I actually believe it's true but because I was angry and wanted to hurt you."

You'd be surprised at how often that one happens.

Theres also "i said something that was true *in the moment*, but this does not reflect how I feel 99% of the time". Think kids screaming that they hate you before storming off.

Bundled

This reminds me of a frog cable protector that I have!

I bundled him up so he wouldn’t be cold

Young people who think old people are boring aren’t talking to enough old people.
