’bi people center men’ well no, you’re perpetuating the idea that bi men are really just gay and bi women are really just straight. And also maybe hot take it’s not a bad thing for a person to be attracted to and love men and it doesn’t make said person’s love for and attraction to women any lesser. You just see bisexuals as tainted and dirty.
consider that a bisexual person getting into a relationship with a man after dating you doesn’t mean you were thrown aside for your former partner to ‘run back’ to men, your relationship is over, you have no say over who they date now and that bisexuals are still bisexual even after dating you.
Okay guys, hopefully this is the last time I ask for help here..... I have $40 left in my bank account, my first paycheck isn't until the week after next and I just found out that I have like a bunch of money in unclaimed revenue but I won't get that until like 30 days or something.
I need money to help me out at least for the next couple of weeks with rides to work and groceries. So if anyone has anything to spare to help please help!

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me
So.... I had to send money to my roommate b/c he was late paying the rent, after I had already 'loaned' him $30 another day that he never paid me back. So I've 'lent' him like $90 even after he knows I don't have a lot of money and I kind of doubt he'll actually pay me back like he claims.
I'm almost out of bread, and I need money for Lyft's b/c I have a job interview on Monday, and hopefully will hear more this weekend, etc.
But I have like $30 left in my account guys.
If anyone can help out that'd be really great.
I hate that I have to keep asking for help but my roommate keeps draining me when I need money myself.
Okay, I wasn't gonna post this here guys b/c I know how awful/cruel Polin's are on here. And they will likely/probably mock me. But I need some help. I've been unemployed and looking for work, and I do have an interview (and hopefully another soon as well) on Monday.
But my roommate, despite knowing my status and lack of finances currently, keeps 'borrowing' money from me and never paying me back. So now I'm short on money for groceries and rides to/from interviews.
If any of ya'll have some money to help me out, I'd really really appreciate it. Even $20 from various people adds up and helps me out tremendously.

Again, I'd really appreciate it if you guys can help.
I am having the time of my LIFE seeing USians short-circuit when they see a tanned White person (in my country, Greece, this is "tanned" White) and their race theory crumbles because soooo many admitted they clocked him as White. Well done people, you are sooo close to realizing that the White/Caucasian type has diversity in it! They are so desperate to "clock" what is this "weird" type of person who looks and doesn't look White!
Actually, people who look like him you have already categorized as White, not only in your legislation but in your social life as well (we are called South Europeans!)
I have news for you! Your sense of categorizing people is fucked up and the reason you short-circuit like this is because you follow the outdated standards of pedantic, classicist, and rich assholes! And the proof is that the MOMENT you learned about some "ethnic" background you rushed to see his dark hair, tan, and features with a totally different eye.
Here's what you miss. It's oversimplified and cookie-cutter but that's apparently what you need to understand how the world works.
(pic that also someone else included in the comments):
Extremely pale USians and Europeans don't have the sole dominion over this phenotype. For some obnoxious reason half the people who look like Fabien (including Greeks) in the US socially are called White (With A Tan), but Brown when they are from the Middle East and/or North Africa. But a person from all these areas can look like all of these people! Like, I'd SAFELY call the men in the pic Greeks, in a country with 95% recorded homogeneity, because there is diversity even within our group!
People from these regions may want to self-identify as non-White and that's on them. Identifications differ depending on the country and I don't mean to imply that a dark-skinned Tamilian should be called White. (Even Greeks don't identify as White in some countries). I am just stating that the line between the US' "White" and "Brown" are rooted in xenophobia and classicism more than anything else. If Fabien was Greek (because he 100% looks Greek) people would be like "Aaa a White boy with a nice tan". Now they are like "aaaah he is Brown, thank goodness, now it all makes sense! I thought something was odd here! I couldn't categorize him in my extremely specific subcategory of person I consider White, nor the category for Brown!"
Yeah, honey, something is odd, your perception of categorizing people.
*British actor Fabien Frankel has Iraqi and Indian ancestry (Jewish too but that's not indicative of location in his case. Also a lot Jewish people self-identify as White). I learned the actor is apparently "3/4 white" and "identifies as White" from the thread comments, which makes sense but it'd be nice to have more info to back this up. Not that it matters too much in the general scope of this post, because it's not as much about him but more for the USians.
**Caucasus is a region but for now we don't have another name for a type that describes such similar people from different regions. Please excuse my use of it.
Now, toxic stans for "fighting for my character to be treated with respect" while fan now means "i take any bullshit Marvek throws at me and defend it to my death" @jujianjes
Loki's fandom sank so low, Loki could literaly be raped by Mobius during interrogation scene then cry afterwards and they would still defend Mobius and say "Loki is just not good at expressing love, he enjoyed it"
After TR and Frostmaster, with Loki being visibly extremely uncomfortable whenever he was in the same room with Grandmaster, let alone touched by him and all the fans suddenly going “ooh, sexy! look, he found himself a sugar daddy uwu” — color me surprised. Male assault victims are traditionally disregarded, especially when they are painted as “deserving this” like poor Loki. The amount of “hot” edits of crying and miserable Loki (and other not 100% hero-coded male characters tbh) I’ve encountered is genuinely disturbing.
OK but whose idea was it to get Tom Hiddleston, a Classics graduate, to get into character as Loki and stand on a goat cart in Pompeii yelling to all the inhabitants about their impending doom in Latin, because honestly that seems like a kind of Christmas-and-birthday-combined level of treat for him.
Do you know what i hate about the whole cancel/educate culture and mainly twitter???
There's no such thing as GROWTH on that site and culture. The moment someone makes ONE mistake, just like we all do, or one really OLD tweet or video gets discovered, it's immediately "#isoverparty/deactivate. People make those long educational threads, but then leave no room for them to educate themselves, TRY and apologize.
Like if it's someone who already had the same problem multiple times, then yes, they are horrible and need to be deplataform. But what if someone is really sorry and they GENUINELY want to know about the topic and what the problem with their actions were???
And the worst part is that people expect them to "educate" themselves on their own, like if others are associated/friends with them, they get canceled too, when there was a reason they were canceled in the first place is because they didn't know and they should be able to have friends/a support system to teach them better.
Like it's proven that when someone makes a mistake and it's immediately meet with agression and rudeness, they will be less willing to learn and grow.
I completely understand and I don't dismisse the feeling of being frustrated and upset, because there IS a lot of performance activism online, but respondly rudely will only make things worse, which is the opposite of what we want.
