Awww... That's so sweet. :3

How did you two meet? I remember you talking about it in here when you were single but don't remember exactly the details.

I don't remember the first time because it was my one and only black out and throw up night on the streets of Orlando lmao

But the time I remember was at dinner with friends. He was friends with a classmate of mine and his boyfriend. We didn't talk much and he thought I was cold, but I was just shy in groups I guess. Went out with the friends again and he met up with us and then we hit it off a bit and made out at a big club so the next day he asked me to go out with him to a "wine walk" night that was happening on Main Street.

Can't believe I finished Latin 3. I'm so fucking happy avziavzibaizb

(I study Language and Literature at college, and Latin is the worst subject by far. There are 4 in total. Just 1 left)

Congratulations. Latin's definitely not the easiest subject - I only studied it for a little while, but it was an utterly embarrassing failure on my part.

I'm sure you'll be fine with the last unit - the end is in sight.

I just played through The Last Guardian and I think it made me fall in love with Sony as much as the game itself

Like thank god they keep up these really spirited and artistic visionary projects, even when they aren't ripe for franchising or massive sales. What a beautiful game. Sony seems to have long been less averse to letting their projects be ambitious and risky. Microsoft seems to pick either ambitious and mainstream or take a creative risk but make it a small release... sorry Gears/Halo/Forza box

I need to go get me some Halo Top 260 calories per pint ice cream because I love the ether that taste comparisons throw at their competitor Arctic Zero once they've tasted the Halo Top and also as an American I want guilt free ice cream

I've yet to try Halo Top but hear good things from the fitness community I'm apart of.

Speaking of fitness, I was casually looking at various sources for how much one of my height/build should weigh. Lord, I wasn't just fat, I was like holy shit whale on land obese.

This is kind of awful, so I guess they did this move to avoid backlash from homophobes who would claim its being "forced" on them or something when they see it automatically appear in their reaction choices? I wished it was shoved in forcefully as every other seasonal reaction.

Yeah, I didn't think of that. Shitty move. Companies don't care about us, per usual

I'm between 5'7/5'8 and weigh somewhere between 159-167ish and I'm still considered overweight, which is bullshit but whatever. I feel the whole "weight chart" is complete crap honestly, and promotes unhealthy image of what should be, as well as body shapes, styles, etc vary.

I use to take it personally and allowed it to affect me, but I really don't weigh myself anymore or care to pay attention. I simply eat better and go to the gym. I just track my progress via pictures on my instagram and such.

I went from a pants size of 44 to 32, and the 32s im wearing currently are falling off, I'm pretty much in a MD shirt now, from a 2XL(sometimes 3xl) and I refuse to look at that stupid chart. Everyones bodies are different, so fuck the whole appropriate chart system.

Oh I don't care about BMI either. I was just saying based on that metric, I was like on the verge of exploding fat (which I was, but whatever). Right now I'm down about 23 pounds from March. I'm still not flat bellied or anything, but my OG goal is a few pounds away. I know for a fact that if I lost twenty more pounds (putting me at the high end of the spectrum for my measurements), I would look extremely skinny, possibly unhealthily so. If I start working out seriously and go down another ten pounds past my goal, I think that would be a fine medium (provided I'm actually lifting). Regardless, if you like what you see and feel good, who gives a shit what a number says

But also I'm glad I'm no longer sporting a 7 month baby bump. I'm pretty much at the "first signs of showing" stage now. Now if I could just stop being lazy and exercise RIP

Ohh sorry, its the way I took it =(. Congratulations on being down 23 pounds! Thats definitely an accomplishment! You got this! Wishing you the best as you continue

I'm far from having a flat stomach myself, and I'll need skin removal surgery if I ever hope to make that happen.

Hello LGBTQIA+GAF, inspired by the asexuality thread, I think it is time we move on from using that long acronym in exchange for the simplier GSM or Gender/Sexual Minorities. It is shorter, simplier and more inclusive. If accepted by those in the GAF community the next thread title can be changed to it. What are your guys thoughts on this?

Another suggestion by the lovely Poor GRIMES is:

Poor GRIMES said:
MOGAI works too, but I guess why it wouldn't be that marketable because it looks like the word "moai" 🙃.

MOGAI= Marginalized orientations, gender alignments, and intersex. MOGII= Marginalized orientations, gender identities, and intersex.

I agree. But I also know that civil rights movements continually change and adopt new names as they progress. It might be better to adopt a more encompassing term while we continue to give marginalized identities platforms.
