Omg I love that guy! He’s like a fruity straight guy who hates himself which is actually quite a fun personality for what started as a gag character

Which character from the Mattel doll franchise (including TV shows and movies) known as “Monster High” do you find most relatable?

I find Ghoulia most relatable because I gravitate towards nerd archetypes, and my secondary choice would be Cleo since I can be arrogant and mean-spirited at times but am always loyal to my friends.

I see the vision 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

I can translate! I love outreach to the straight community, especially in these trying times for you guys. What’s giving you pause?

Does El Calientador correspond to Heath Burns in English?

I also do feel that last paragraph actually cuz I’m very similar. When I hook up I’m very respectful and gregarious that multiple people ask me on dates after cuz they feel that spark and emotional connection cuz I open them up in both ways. The thing is that I’m a lot more choosy with romance so when I say what I’m looking for in a partner they usually back down. Even if I looked C-list porn star hot I’d truly clear lmao (I’m already in therapy working on the mental lol, and rn I’m at like E-list)

Call me basic and whitewashed but I do love an oregano thyme rosemary moment. Rosemary makes me “oh mary” like Jorgeous

I also love garlic powder and paprika cuz I can avoid cutting vegetables and I’m a lazybones

I will say that I’m down with like 99% of spices but I absolutely loathe tumeric. Hate it. I’m convinced people put it in stuff just for colour cuz we love an orange-yellow serve but like who actually likes the taste

Famoso. It’s pricy unfortunately, being a restaurant instead of a takeout style place, but the price is indeed worth it

Lowkey I would be good with that. I think it would be interesting to have a space like this within a larger communist space bc, while I’m ML in my personal politics, many of these existing communities are very much socdem in flavour. I don’t mind this bc discussing divas isn’t exactly the vanguard party lmao. That said, I think that a commie version of this type of thing also hasn’t been done before and would be an interesting experiment!

I guess I gotta revive it lol

Yeah (though not often)

I’m sure you get a lot of speaking and inflection practice from your work, maybe think of it as a skill you’ve gained instead of natural talent!

Those were beautiful! Omg that couple must’ve been worried sick, but I’m glad that they were kind enough to step in. I love sharing passions/interests with others so that busker was cool, and that deaf guy was a real gem with the power bar lol

Like a 3 or 4 LMAO. I’m pretty set in my ways, I’m willing to hear most people out but only in an effort to change someone else’s mind, not really to change my own. That said, if you are on the left (i.e. identify as anti-capitalist, at minimum), then I will legitimately take your perspective and stances into consideration.

This doesn’t mean that I’m not empathetic or that I shut people down, I’m very conflict averse as well. I just take in what people say, push back maybe a little, and try to understand their perspective while mine still remains unchanged.

Ok so Tiananmen square had two main elements in the protest:

• Liberals who wanted to go down the US Road entirely instead of just the Dengist approach.
• Maoists who wanted to revert the Dengist reforms entirely.

I have way more sympathy for the second group than I do the first. A more ideal path would have been a re-education of the first group and an integration of the second group into the CPC more directly, but unfortunately this did not occur as protestors became militant.

This is not to excuse the CPC response of course; even in the face of political violence, even reactionary political violence from the first group, the military should have as light of a hand as possible in response, and I don’t think this was abided by in the events of 1989. However, I do think it was correct to suppress this movement in the first place in some capacity. The alternative would probably be colour revolution. Look at places like Venezuela and Nepal and Bolivia; they haven’t purged their reactionary elements upon socialists reaching power and capitalist coups/regime change become inevitable.

Yes

(Or at least I hope so lol)
