@alexispurslane It exactly is conversion therapy, yes.

@admin Wat ik me vooral nog kan herinneren van de Edah, waren die zuilen die daar stonden met dat 'spelletje' met die bal; kon je met een klantenkaart 1x per dag 'spelen', en dan soms gratis producten winnen enzo. Dat was denk ik de eerste touchscreen die ik als kind ooit gezien had, en dan nog op zo'n ouderwetse beeldbuis ook :)

@admin @meike Nou ja, Konmar heeft het ook niet echt lang overleefd geloof ik, iig niet als landelijke keten; dat was een poging van Laurus (toen eigenaar van o.a. Edah and Super de Boer) om al hun supermarkten onder 1 merk verder te laten gaan, en dat is nogal hard geflopt :p

@meike

@meduelelateta Yep, a couple of people have actually brought that up! I actually knew the term already, but (wrongly) had it defined in my head as "polyamory without requiring every partner to know about every other partner", but it turns out that it means something quite different :)

@blinry@chaos.social It's a term I've only learnt recently, actually! Until a few months ago, it hadn't even really occurred to me that this wasn't how relationships worked for everybody... and it explains a lot of the accusations of "neglecting relationships" that ND folks often get thrown at them :/

@bram_dingelstad Hmm. Thinking of real-world Jenga, I believe that this is precisely why the blocks are sanded / lightly coated, rather than just being raw untreated wood! So assuming your physics simulation is accurate enough, presumably there is *some* friction setting that makes it less glue-y without becoming a slip-and-slide :)

@bram_dingelstad No friction parameter to reduce?

@JoSuus Nog zo'n mooie: "kwestieus"

@aeva@mastodon.social Ha :D

@justtesting It does indeed seem to correlate strongly to 'autism', though I don't really like the term personally (long story), hence trying to find a more specific term that describes these specific characteristics :)

Is there a (short) name for:
1. Not defining relationships as eg. "boyfriend" vs. "lover" vs. "friend", etc. but rather just treating them all as "wherever it ends up going that we both feel comfortable with"?
2. Not experiencing 'relationship degradation', ie. if I haven't talked to somebody for 5 years and then talk to them again, it'll be exactly where we left off?

(Boosts welcome!)

@aeva@mastodon.social Oh yeah, bonus concern: I do activism and other public things under my own name, which means that I usually can't talk publicly about who my friends or even partners (by some description) are, because it means that anybody closely associated with me also becomes a potential target of harassers...
