srs question, possibly homophobia 

@grace@weirder.earth in some branches of christianity (i am culturally catholic and it is strong there) there is a conception that only god is able to judge sinning i.e. it isn't the place of people to do so.

people who buy strongly into this idea might oppose, on theological grounds, such things as taking away rights from other people or otherwise demeaning them simply because they engaged in a “sinful” act, because that's humans trying to pass judgment which is rightly reserved for god.

more or less, that is what this statement is in reference to. it is saying “i personally think gayness is sinful, but i don't think it is my or anybody else's business to punish that, so if gay people want to go be gay then they should be able to, even though i disapprove and might tell them so”. it's like the old “i don't like what he says but i'll defend to the death his right to say it” only with sexual practices instead of free speech.

unlike with free speech, these people's tolerance for gayness usually evaporates once it starts happening in public.

i have probably talked about cishet women authors as a group at some point relatively recently

when is the last time i used the term cishet to like, describe a group of people

@packbat i have no idea what “verbs irksome” means i think i meant “feels”

@packbat tacking on to this, i WILL say that it bothers me when i see people writing english with, like, younger futhark runes instead of the old english futhorc or something reasonably derived from it (which is to say, taking into account future vowel shifts and changes to the english language); it's like writing English using Spanish spellings and verbs irksome to me

so if you are interested in runes, you might find the latin/runic correspondences in there to be an interesting take as well (they're not what one typically sees)

@packbat (ftr i also speak a rhotic dialect natively, it's just that whether you pronounce “far” as /fɑː/ or /fɑɹ/ doesn’t actually wind up mattering much for the spelling. the major thing to get used to is that “all” is “orl”, as in “orl korıkt” (OK), and things in that vein. it's an adjustment but less weird than like, the pronunciation of “colonel” lmao.)

(in the end though having intuitive spellings is much less useful than having recognizable ones for most purposes, which is why english gets on with spellings that are centuries out of date instead of actually fixing anything. it's a thought experiment more than anything, and probably more useful for like, fantasy worldbuilding than actual everyday use.)

(i think the sets of consonant+lenition pairs and of short/long/rhotic vowels are the most interesting and potentially enlightening parts for me.)

@witchfynder_finder i have zero outstanding problems with any monads user but if i were to take issue with a moderation decision of theirs i can’t trust them to have a conversation with me about it like an adult

which is the same metric i use to block random pleroma instances

but i’d rather my art embrace human sexuality than erase it, personally
