I’m a systems librarian in an academic library. I moved over the Lemmy after Rexxit 2023. I’ve had an account on sdf.org since 2009 (under a different username), and so I chose this instance out of a sense of nostalgia. I do all sorts of fiber arts (knitting, cross stitch, sewing) and love dogs.
My current theory is he doesn’t experience pleasure or closeness from sex and doesn’t have the emotional capacity to understand that others might. Maybe he thinks others are making up/exaggerating the non-reproductive benefits they receive from sex?
This is not the representation we asexuals need.
Just because sex is boring AF to me doesn’t mean others can’t enjoy it. I have hobbies y’all might not enjoy. Let people enjoy stuff!
My aunts’ grandparents came from Poland. Their parents spoke Polish in the house. They were raised with a whole close-knit gaggle of cousins, also with Polish grandparents and parents. The old country wasn’t that long ago for them. They’ve visited.
Me, eh. My dad married someone from Appalachia and I grew up away from his family. I haven’t heard Polish spoken outside of my great-grandaunt’a funeral. I like pierogi, kielbasa, and sauerkraut because they remind me of my dad. He’d cook them when he was feeling nostalgic.
I have looked into claiming Polish citizenship through descent (mostly because an EU passport would be comforting what with USA politics), but my folks came over too early for that.
I moved over to Podcast Addict from BeyondPod. I’m pretty happy here.
My shoulder critic is my mom. I’m working on evicting her from my brain, but yeah. It’s a thing.
