Maybe if I'm going to use Bluesky more I should post this fire ass selfie of me that I took a couple of weeks back before a Blood On The Clocktower game.
Ran my own script for Blood on the Clocktower last night, an airplane themed script so I decided to come in the appropriate attire as the recently murdered Cpt. Chaz.

No fuck off we're not calling this "Millennial grey" this shit was dictated completely by boomer retiree house flippers we absolutely had NO say in this
![Millennial grey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A kitchen with beige grey floors, drab walls, brushed steel appliances, and grey granite countertops.
Grey floors and furnishings are said to appeal to Millennial tastes.
Millennial grey refers to a desaturated colour scheme that is said to appeal to the interior design sensibilities of the Millennial Generation in the early 21st century.[1] Cultural historian Kassia St. Clair attributed its widespread adoption to a desire among Millennials for "a flexible, sensible choice that will last years, hide any stains, and can be adapted to different schemes."[1] Some have diagnosed Millennial grey as a reaction to the warm hues of the late 20th century.[2]
Millennial grey is polarising, particularly when used with imitation-wood-texture sheet vinyl flooring, which many describe as depressing, soulless, or corporate.[3][4] Although attributed to Millennials, the grey colour scheme is often chosen by house flippers, vacation rental owners, or other people who do not actually live in the greyed properties.[3] Thus, the occupant of the property—Millennial or not—has little say in its colour scheme, particularly when deployed for fixtures such as flooring.[4] The greying may have been driven, in part, by a desire to prepare properties for sale in a manner thought to be least offensive to the average buyer.[5] Given the housing crises gripping many countries in the early to mid-21st century, buyers and renters may feel they have no choice but to accept a property decked in Millennial grey.[4]
To the extent that Millennial grey is said to be enjoyed by Millennials, it is also said to be loathed by Generation Z.[1][2]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:atdbmignbrjbjgj2ba4axnwl/bafkreidgcz72oqo4dwsqlv2ovhewwekbfxdo7ydluyrffhlijqkg2546gy)

Great video from Caelen, as always.
Turns out I've started to become a lot less comfortable with the myth that queer people are the source of our own victimisation. The comfy little lie that cishet liberals tell themselves as it absolves their own in-group of any bigotry.

Everywhere Republicans gather, Grindr crashes. Or at least, that's what people have told me about 500 times since my video discussing if homophobia is always rooted in secretly being gay.
But is it true? Do republicans constantly crash Grindr whenever they meet?

The thing that gets me about this whole Graham Platner debacle, is I can't think of one trans person, or one person of colour, who thought the nazi tattoo wasn't disqualifying.
And we were all told by cis white men that "actually, this guy really cares about you." Who're all now making apologies.
