I do not want to be working on matlab code

...so I've been bouncing around here all day instead! (I am actually getting some things done work-wise, but clearly not enough.)

One thing that's been on my mind is a conversation I was having the other day with a gentleman I know, in which we were talking about how it can be really awkward and uncomfortable when you try to just... talk about your life and the straight people have no earthly context and stare at you like a deer in headlights, and you know you can either put on your teaching mode or you can just let it go and continue to be reminded that your context and authentic self is inherently uncomfortable or impolite in broader society. Which sucks.

( It got me thinking about the way that different queer subcultures interact with one another based on sex and sexuality. )

I would like to be a little more active on DW. Most of my energy right now is going to Metafilter, but not all of it, and I'd like to be in the habit of writing for myself in my own space more.

So I've got a comment on this thread forming. It's a total derail of the conversation, it's not really helpful there, but I can totally write out what I'm thinking here, right? Right.

( Plus, the internet definitely needs to hear my feelings on socializing children via the Internet. )
