@Vopo @ShelfReader @Nezchan i think a commonwealth is more like an alliance or group of countries. somehow this seems to capture the idea of instances being federated only with those others they share a common identity with, but idk
Voir une partie de WT IRL, découvrir que les personnes sont les même que sur l'instance, avoir fait des câlins...
Mais aussi manifester, sentir "sa" communauté autour de soi, reconnaître des personnes plus ou moins connues dans la foule...
Cette journée fut intense émotionnellement, mais dans le meilleur sens du terme !
@Vopo @ShelfReader @Nezchan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth
but I guess this term already fails as a nontechnical option lol
Oh hey Ursula Le Guin's birthday is Oct 21. I'm about 1/2 way through "The Dispossessed", and it is astonishingly good.
Quote from her: "We live in capitalism, its power seems inescapable-but then, so did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings."
@Vopo @ShelfReader @Nezchan village and commonwealth?
I wish I could be at Exitrans
@alyx I will do
@alyx totally. I want the 100% one
@alyx wow I’m into these, both of them
At the club now. It’s weird how changes in hormone balance change your reaction to music. I’m not feeling this stuff much where I used to be into it. Or is it a different reason?
@kara_dreamer yeahhhhhhhhhh 💜🎉💜
@noxy i spent some time there but my Thai is not really good enough to have totally solid knowledge of these issues especially as they’re the kind you can’t get a straight answer from a language teacher (because they’re always worried you’ll misuse too casual forms and get in trouble)
@noxy my image of it is working class men just on the basis of who I’ve heard use it most. It’s interesting that it’s neutral
@noxy hmm that’s interesting. I always was told กู was kind of hyper masculine and ultra casual, I never really heard afab straight people use it (I think toms do though). It’s all gender performance I suppose
@noxy yeah I was thinking of ผม in particular. I guess it’s only a unidirectional requirement though as you say. The others are quite flexible. Actually do afab straight people use กู? My queer amab friends used to use it sometimes but idk
@noxy doesnt the Thai system also have some immutable qualities though? particularly as related to gender.
