R5-D4 , know to his friend's as Skippy, was a force sensitive astromech droid on Tatooine in the year 0 BBY.

Upon receiving a premonition of what would happen if Luke Skywalker and his uncle purchased him instead of R2-D2 he nobly chose to destroy his own motivator.

Let his sacrifice never be forgotten.

      another one began complaining about bdsm stuff at pride

      and when i wouldn't agree with him he tried to walk it back like "uuhhh... i think we can all agree that we don't want to see men in bdsm gear waving dildos around"

      no actually, we cant!!!

      i want to see guys with their cocks out at pride!

        Posting only to comment on how fucking exhausting the "be 100% cisheteronormative assimilationist or back in the closet with you" bullshit is every fucking year. Good job pushing back on this bs.

          yeah same guy literally tried to make a distinction between the "normal gays" and the "Gay gays"

          he said something about how "99% of lgbt people just want to appear normal, while the 1% ruin the "reputation" for the rest"

          :meow-knife-trans: (imagine a bigger and scarier knife)

          edit: i almost quoted from skam to him

            Privilege and reputation are inextricably intertwined. Fuck reputation. It’s the root of all fragility and negative peace

            yeah same guy literally tried to make a distinction between the “normal gays” and the “Gay gays”

            literally the same exact thing as "I don't hate black people, I just hate n*s" except unironic. Jesus Christ

            Insert quote from Wall Street guy who said that despite being gay, Trump would allow him to continue as he wanted, whereas Bernie would tax him higher, which was why he didn't think the choice was hard.

            There are plenty of middle class assimilationist gays who would happily shove anyone visibly queer in front of a train if they thought it would help them up a single rung of whatever respectability ladder they think is standing between them and their destiny.

        With those people you really need to take a page from the life of Karl Marx and just start laughing derisively at them. Or offer them a wedgie if you're sufficiently big.

      I remember whipping out “I’m an atheist” when someone thought to laugh and make light of the LGBTQ kid doing a presentation on gay rights and assumed everyone believed in a gay-hating God.
