I'm so excited to finish reading this! Started the audiobook but I need to physically read more books, so shout-out to thriftbooks.com for having a book that's no longer in print

As someone who is gay with almost entirely straight friends, it's only very specific groups of straight people who are like this, but by no means the majority
It is mostly people who have an inability to handle jealousy, because being jealous of your partner's friend is incredibly normal and happens for various reasons even in non-straight relationships but instead of asking why they are jealous, they justify their jealousy. Which is not the majority of straight people. The ones who are, are just really fucking loud
Heterosexual relationship culture is so alien to me and I don’t know if it’s the fact I’m not cishet or the fact I’m autistic but I hear so many things that make me go “Am I insane or are they?”
There’s a lot of hate on widowers and I saw a woman say “You cannot compete with a dead woman.” which is perhaps a reasonable statement to say if he’s constantly comparing you to his dead partner but that wasn’t what the post was about. And I realized “Oh my God, these people genuinely feel like they’re constantly in competition with their spouse’s exes and the ex being dead makes them feel insecure that they cannot best her.”
There’s also been an uptick in the ‘men and women cannot be ‘just’ friends’ rhetoric which I feel like is extremely dangerous and reflects the rise of fascism and sexism. Some of these stories of women feeling threatened by their husband’s female best friend have some merit and others are like “I feel angry that my husband still talks to the girl he grew up next door to and she and her wife are invited to family gatherings and included in family photos sometimes. Am I right to be suspicious?” No. No you’re not. I cannot imagine being you and living with that high level of stress and paranoia and constant torment and jealousy about your husband having a positive relationship with anyone who isn’t you.

Started my new anxiety meds tonight and it's crazy how much anxiety I have over taking meds to hopefully help curb that some
I'm also back on my med to help with night terrors which hopefully helps me get some more sleep again

Sometimes I read posts about AI and I'm like, oh yeah, forgot people don't understand nuance
At my job, it streamlines EVERYTHING. Which is needed because we are way in over our heads with a new contract
Like there's a place for it, the problem is everyone is still trying to figure out what that place is and like with any "new" software people go crazy, bunches of money is dumped into it, eventually the hype/scare dies down, and it finds its place in the tech world (it is important to note what we call AI currently is not true AI, and has existed long before it entered the mainstream public)
Needless to say yes we need to figure out how to use it in a more environmentally friendly way, but it can be a great tool. It just entered the mainstream and the general public is still trying to figure out where and when is best to use it
#is it obvious I work in tech#my bro is a software engineer#and my dad is a mechanical engineer#sometimes i forget people don't understand this kind of stuff at all#I bring a certain nuance to ai conversations people don't like lol

Yes???? I don't really know because it's ancestry and Allegheny mountains history. Would it be living through those events then? I'm assuming I would survive considering they all stayed alive long enough to have children hence I exist

How the fuck am I supposed to meet a fellow lesbian and then convince her to date me
Don't know anything about lesbians, but maybe if you walked around carrying a baseball bat that'd be really bad ass.
