Hi, so I was thinking about moving to Germany or Russia, but I have a question: which one is more open-minded?

If I participate in the exchange program, I will inevitably be in Germany, but as for Germany or Russia (or maybe Latvia or Kyrgyzstan)...

Which of these four countries is the safest?

I'm learning Russian and I don't know what it is for that, but in German I've seen "xier", "sier", and "dey". I might use "dey/dem".

Hi, so I use any pronouns now but I tend to gravitate towards they/them as I'm nonbinary and faintly bigender. I saw a thread on Reddit asking people what pronouns would be used instead of they/them in Russian but it was full of people calling them weirdos and saying no one has to respect them. Because, you know, it's Reddit. Anyway, anyone familiar with Russian, what pronouns can I use?

Hi, so I kinda have a problem. I like watching people sleep. Ever since I was a kid, I'd get a weird tingly feeling seeing characters on TV sleep, even if it wasn't real. Then, I discovered sleep streams on a dare. At first, I watched them as a joke, but then they became actually attractive to me and I want someone to do that with me.

My recent channel I've seen is Violet Lottie...

Considering Russian is not only spoken in Russia but also in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan, what would be the safest country to travel to where you can speak Russian? Probably not Russia or Ukraine because of the war but yeah.

Now that I finally got the courage not to delete this, I'm a teen boy with a girlfriend, Emma. We are both minors, this is important to the post.

Emma found this YouTube channel for a show we both used to watch (we need to watch the new seasons). The person who runs it, let's call Chris (~32M).

Emma commented on Chris's videos because she liked his random content. He is very passionate about his interests and loves making videos, he's also autistic just like us and takes great pride in being autistic as he should. Why be ashamed?

Well, Chris ended up finding Emma's art on her channel and really liked it, so he asked her to draw for him. He used to pay people with $100 gift cards according to his old posts but wanted her to do it for free because he couldn't be bothered or didn't have the money.

Emma eventually got tired of this and told him she was too tired and also too busy with her studies, but he wouldn't take the hint (I guess that's ok, Emma and I miss social cues too). Her drawing tablet ended up breaking and she told him that but he was just like "Ok. Can you draw for me?" over and over.

I would say this is helping because it’s allowing me to learn a language and connect with people but this dude “Jordan” (not his real name) is known as a bad person at my school. He is half German and thinks he can hate Jewish people and act like a Nazi but because he speaks German at home, it allows him to actually speak German and say rude things without people knowing.

He taught me some German anyway, and it was actually normal stuff and he told me I should take German classes to immerse myself.

I have seen a lot of posts on Gay Bros, as a genderfluid (mostly male) trans guy dating another trans guy, and a lot of the posts were just talking about how "men in dresses" should stop "pretending" to be lesbians and how "women" should stop "pretending" to be gay men.

There was one post in particular which I expected better from that said "is it okay to not want to date a trans man" and the comments were full of "is it okay to not want to date a woman? yes, you're gay not bi" and the like.

I have never seen that here or gotten that vibe. Thank you, GayBros Lemmy!

That’s me with my partner. I want to even have them in the room with me while I sleep.

I panicked and shut down the instance because I thought Google Cloud wasn't free.

When I was about 11 years old, I was in fifth grade and I knew some eighth graders. Well, the following year, I was 12 and they were freshmen. I started to hang out with them and I was like the "little sister" (I'm AFAB genderfluid now) of the group.

They got into alcohol from one of the freshmen's brother and they would offer me some whenever we hung out. Curiosity got the better of me, and sure enough, I was drinking pretty much every time we hung out.

Eventually, my parents found out, I quit the drinking altogether and I never hung out with those people again.

I am quite proud of myself, I haven't had a drink since I was twelve, actually. But I have heard that drinking alcohol can decrease your performance in things so yeah.
