hey boy don't kill yourself. green's dictionary of slang is available online and allows you to explore 500 years of english vulgarity. you can search by part of speech, source, time period, etymology, and usage. there's a whole category for gay slang. they even have specific citations listed so you can see the exact context for yourself. boy did you know that in 1927 "to kneel at the altar" was slang for "to sodomize"
I was super hoping I wouldn't have to make this post, but shit keeps hitting the fan and I'm struggling for a lot of bills and the 1.65 I have in my account really ain't gonna cover it.
My cat has been sick, my online bank "lost" money and wont give it back, I had to pay a bunch to get my car fixed/re-registered/insured, I got a ticket for "texting while driving" despite the fact that I was just switching the song on spotify at a red light. It's been a hell of a couple months and I haven't been able to get back on my feet so I need to open up a few Emergency Commission Slots (tm)
Right now I need the rest of rent ($350), my car payment and insurance (500$).

Hey did you know there's a tell all book about the behind the scenes of Meta and the author is forbidden from promoting it?

“Many people seem to think it is foolish, even superstitious, to believe the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter is still sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say ‘What do I care if there is a summer, its warmth is no help to me now’. Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”
