1/2: It is so damn weird — weird as hell — that so many men and women, most of whom I don’t even know at all, don’t live anywhere near, and’ll almost certainly never meet or have much anything to do with beyond a chance meeting IRL or online legit think I want to have sex with them.

2/2: I’m not saying I think they think that. I’m saying that because I’ve been accused of it, online for liking a photo (that’s not nude or even scanty or whatever) or leaving a generic comment on a public post. Yes, men and women... and sometimes others. WTF?

@thedisasterautist Stop hounding me for sex with your likes and comments! 🤣

The barber, who I've known for years, told him to calm down and don't act up like that in the place, and the guy went on a tirade about "gay guys always tryin' out on me" and such.

Bizarroland.
