nonbinary heterosexuality: is it real?

 i've recently watched a video discussing the idea of nonbinary heterosexuality and i found it a really interesting view of how my friends view me when i go on these rants where i turn into "the friend that's too woke"

i've been told the way i explain things (like this) can be annoying so i've opted to talk less but this is not a vent post this is a cathartic post

i've consistently been running with the etymology definitions of these terms, meaning non-binary people dating anyone that isn't non-binary is straight because homo- means "of the same" and hetero- means "different; other" but the main flaw in this thought process is that "enby" isn't a gender* 

 

it's just a label for anything that doesn't fit between the gender binary of male and female. this means that an agender person could date a bigender person and it still be straight, but this also doesn't take into account — i shit you not — vibe.

 

vibe is, for the sake of this conversation, a label representing how someone decides to present themselves. a masc enby dating a femme enby gives a straight vibe despite it not fitting into the gender binary, and a masc man dating a masc woman gives a gay vibe despite it fitting into the gender binary (but falling into gender non-conformity) 

 

with "vibe" introduced, we can try to redefine heterosexuality to represent dating someone of an opposite vibe/presentation from oneself...

 

shit i forgot androgyny.

 

i say that as a half joke, mostly because no one can fit into perfect androgyny... i don't think... let me know if you've ever met anyone that fits that but i digress, no one can fit perfect androgyny, fitting them into a... vibe.. binary- fuck forget this whole post

 

its whatever.

be gay, do crime, do drugs (dont die), and fuck brian. 

 

thx for reading <3 

 

*well it can be but thats getting into the "do whatever you want whenever" mindset which can/can't be true or is/isn't true but thats a phat can o' worms im not going to open anytime soon

brain dump: video games

    In English class, we're currently taking a unit on argumentation (my favorite :3) and we had an assignment on that today. Specifically that assignment was on an article titled "Video Games: Bad for the Brain?" And no other piece of writing, in my personal opinion, has come so close yet so far to missing the point of what the real issue is regarding video games and younger people like kids and teenagers.

The article discusses multiple studies talking about how young people playing video games has a correlation with how badly or well they do in school. This is done by discussing studies from both sides. Studies where students who play lots of video games do worse, and studies that show students who play video games have increased. 

While this, and the article itself mentioning that correlation doesn't equal causation when discussing the former of the mentioned sides, this is an extremely binary way of looking at how video games affect students and doesn't take into account what video games actually are. 

Video games are nothing but entertainment.

    While yes, they can distract students from their work and that can result in worse grades and overall worse academic performance, so can TV shows, movies, et cetera! Video games are always written about and discussed like the second coming of Academic Satan (who I'm best friends with, by the way) but that's one of the most disingenuous ways of looking at things. Video games aren't any different from other medium, specifically in the way that it affects you psychologically. [citation needed]

 

 

What the article fails to do, even in its attempts to compensate, is to recognize that video games don't "impede academic performance" OR enhance it. It is entertainment. It has the capability to distract and the capability to teach the viewer something new. Video games don't influence people more than books do, and we read those all the time.

 

Alright, that's all I have to say, thanks for reading! <3 

brain dump: operating systems

    hi and welcome to the creatively and legally distinct blogsidething: brain dump

it is what it sounds like, i dump my thoughts into the blog when it isnt me thinking about killing myself

so i wanna talk about operating systems, specifically, the fact that

NOT FUCKING EVERYONE NEED LINUX

 i fucking hate it when tux's cux make themselves known to ANYONE trying to buy a computer by immediately sucking off linux's dick like a whore. what people keep forgetting is that different systems work for different people and that linux, while very customizeable, takes a bit to get used to and customize. 

 

its for nerdy computer people. 

 

windows has gotten more and more shitty over the years and I do believe that's peaked with windows 11, genuinely one of the shittest operating systems ive used in my entire life, just barely beat out by popOS /j

windows works for people who still do nerdy computer stuff but dont need to be doing nerdy shit 24/7. windows is simplified from linux and is a good operating system when it isn't burning your scalp off. 

 

its by and for casual nerdy computer people

 

macos, as much as i personally dislike apple, can genuinely be the best option for certain people. if you're someone who uses iphones and the icloud, airpods, and live in apple's ecosystem, a macos computer will seamlessly integrate itself with your workflow and you'll be able to work very well in coordination with your other devices. its a secure operating system as well, with less viruses infecting macos computers than windows and linux [citation needed]  

 

its for people who want a computer but dont wanna look like nerdy computer people.

 

i encourage discussion and argument in the comments but i doubt that people will genuinely care enough to do anything like that lmfao
thx for reading <3
