      i did it once after the bed was in a corner for years, felt great but i had to learn to keep the pillow on the bed while sleeping, which took a time.

      next i’ld want to try is a round bed hanging from above, but actually not in the near future.

    As a cis het white guy it’s important for everyone here to know what I think:

    Fatherhood, and my monogamous het partnership are the best things that’ve happened in my life.

    “Traditional family values” (paternalism, misogynism etc) are toxic, and abusive. If your existence as a trans person helps undermine them, I celebrate you. If your existence as a trans person somehow reinforces those values I’ll still celebrate you (but I’ll be curious about how that’s happening).

    You have allies.

    Edit to add: the opening line was firmly tongue in cheek.

      Ay fr, from a “blue haired gendergrafitti skoldilocks”: Your ways may be alien and sometimes even a false positive for me to be on my guard…but I will always distinguish healthy, non-coercive forms of allocishet relationships apart from the Imperial Family model.

      I figure that reminder does hurt for next time the topic comes up next to the word colonialism: That you refuse to subordinate and to be subordinated is seen.

      they actually destroyed way more than just the future of “one” generation, have a brief view on their “successes” they are proud of and judge it by how they did it and its durability vs its real/permament costs.

    Should a kitchen fire feel bad when it roars through a wood-frame townhouse complex?

    No. If they built a frail townhouse complex out of Fire’s Favourite food and it gets so consumed, then it’s not the Fire’s fault.

    Light up the sky, bright spark. Dance to the keening trance of the sirens in the pulsing rave lights on the trucks and show us the way.
