I’m all of the above
It says “Someone you know is gay,” but I think it would be extremely presumptuous of me to say that I know you. It also says, “someone you love,” but I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt on that one.
No hate for any Gnome fans, though I do wonder if Gnome being the default in many distros is hurting desktop Linux adoption. Personally, I was ambivalent about desktop Linux until I tried KDE and then Cinnamon.
KDE Master Race anyway
I’m more of a tridactyl sort of foot guy than whatever twisted thing Gnome’s logo is
It’s me, I like gnome.
People hate bi people? Really? But, they’re so much fun!
I’ve heard both straight and gay people say they wouldn’t date a bisexual because they don’t trust them not to sleep with someone else of another gender…
I’ll admit to being one of those people. I’m always a bit biphobic of new bisexual people unless they end up fucking me.
I wouldn’t date someone who wouldn’t date a bi 'cos they’re obviously too insecure to be trusted.
In my experience, women think I’m not “manly” and men think I’m confused.
“No, bro, that’s a penis. You want vagina. You’re just confused because they taste the same”
“No they don’t.”
“How would you know??? Nobody knows! You’re just confused.”
Is this before or after you bring out the trackball?
It has been my experience that a lot of people don’t believe bisexual people even exist. It’s weird.
But how? The evidence is right there.
It’s probably more likely that straight people don’t even exist. Everyone is a little bit gay.
And Arnold Schwarzenegger by the way
Careful with that line of thought; it also implies that everyone is a little bit straight.
So that means everyone is either bi or ace?
The point I’m raising is that it’s dangerously close to telling a lesbian that they “just haven’t had the right dick yet”, etc.
I don’t mean to rebuke, either. I made the exact same comment about everyone being a little bit gay when I came out back in high school, and was immediately met with the same response I gave.
And us homos appreciate it
While I take your point, the concept of telling a lesbian that they “just haven’t had the right dick yet” is almost always used as a slant to imply that they’d actually be happier if they were straight, not if they were bi/pan. It’s more saying “you’re wrong” rather than saying “you might enjoy something else in addition”.
Being bisexual myself, I find monosexuality to be pretty weird and struggle to understand it. I tend to put people who identify as either straight or gay in the same camp - as just not being open-minded enough to explore what feels like the natural state to me; that all people are potential sexual candidates. While it’s a pretty blunt instrument, I tend to think of the Kinsey Scale as being normally distributed - that true 100% straight and 100% gay people probably exist but are extreme minorities.
Again, that’s just my opinion, and it’s not one I’d ever levy at a person derogatorily. I just think as a species we haven’t yet come to the point of thoroughly and completely deconstructing the social and biological frameworks we’ve constructed around sexuality.
I think with the straight/gay labels, you’re not going to be not attracted to someone just because they say that they’re a guy or girl. So really there’s just some appearances that you find attractive, and some not. For most people, those line up pretty well with femininity and masculinity, with maybe a few other restrictions on top. Any label is going to be a simplification, you can’t describe with one word the whole range of people you are attracted to.
I’m straight up envious. Not to the point of hatred, but I’m a little peeved that they get to order from the whole menu.
I wish I could find everyone hot. In my experience I have pretty similar tastes in people regardless of gender, but those tastes are pretty specific so the majority of people are still not attractive to me. Also the bi cycle is real. I’ll cycle which gender I’m most into randomly and sometimes I’m not into anyone. It’s very confusing so it took me a while to figure myself out. It’s really not as great as you’re imagining.
Unfortunately having the whole menu doesn’t mean you actually get to order off there.

Wait until y’all learn about the secret menu. Next time, ask for animal style.

Maybe it’s just the colorblind ones?
Apparently KDE users are furries who are into dragons.
I wear a ladies 5 (US), and have high arches and 6 figure student loan debt.
Don’t low ball me, I know what I have.
Negotiations open.

I don’t think I have it in me to love anyone who likes GNOME. It’s just not natural.
I work with a bunch of huge trumpers, two of whom are (married even) lesbians. They both have somehow arrived at the mental state where they think Republicans are pro-gay and Democrats are anti-gay. If you’re expecting these people to see reason, you’re going to be disappointed.
Must be difficult either never talking to your party or hiding your true self
They are extremely open lesbians. I just do not get it.
I actually sort of get it: they really hate black people and I guess that trumps all. Pun intended.
I like feet but use KDE Plasma
Isn’t that what Peter Thiel consumes to try and stay young?
Oh, KDE … I read that as “kid” by accident
ok that’s really funny
KDE: Ketamine Desktop Environment
Gnome users deserve the hate.
No.
I personally use KDE Plasma and don’t like GNOME but that doesn’t mean that I hate GNOME or think that it, its users, or its devs deserve hate.

I identify with one of these
Meanwhile arch users don’t need a flag, they will just tell you
Selective perception. In a thread where everyone talks about their distro, you’ll remember the arch users because of the meme.
I use Arch btw
Gnome would be good for me as a tablet Desktop Environment, but for desktop I’m hyped up on hyprland.
I use arch btw.
Upvoted because of Arch.
