There is like one definition of bisexuality I've heard that I think is pretty much perfect: attraction to genders like your own and genders unlike your own. No need for overly complex definitions with stupid qualifiers that are simultaneously narrow and describe something that doesn't really matter in practice or doesn't work like that. No need for splitting it into 20 other microlabels. A very concise, elegant and practical definition.

Note: I am not asking necessarily which of these songs you like the best, just which one puts you in an emotional state that you can't quite express. Because I am of A Certain Age, my answer would probably be either "Clocks" or "Viva La Vida". Personally, "Adventure of a Lifetime" reminds me of dissociating while mopping a convenience store floor, but maybe it speaks to you.

As someone from konkan who called people in hilly/pahadi regions of Western Ghats "Desi" this information is even weirder...

'Desi' meant something entirely different to me growing up, tbh. We're in a mountainous region, we're from the hills so we called ourselves and the culture and the native flora and fauna 'pahadi' ('of the mountains') and that stood in opposition to 'desi' - used to mean 'of the plains'.

Then I started seeing people call themselves 'desi' to mean 'Indian', then saw it being used in a general 'south asian' sense, particularly oved the internet or in more global (but informal) contexts. I probably tagged some of my posts that had to do with something specific to India 'desi' too bc I didn't know how else to find others to talk to that stuff about but even then I never used the term for myself because it has never fit. And the kind of people I saw using it, often disapora South Asians but also particularly people from northern plain regions of India, I'd say I didn't see myself fit with their idea of desi anyway at the end of the day. And I never could get on board with using 'desi' to refer to all South Asian or even all Indian people when that's just one Hindi word, felt like ceding more ground to the homogenising of language and culture to place Hindi at the centre of the Indian identity, why would I say desi to refer to myself when I've always said pahadi, why would I say desi to refer to my friends from southern India and north east India when that's never who we referred to as 'desi' and they won't use that word in their own languages anyway, let alone why would I use it to refer to South Asians as a whole?

Obviously it's being used a certain way to have a shorthand for an identity and that's fine and whatever, and obviously there are hegemonic reasons for why That ended up being the word in common use (Hindi, north indian). I just prefer saying what I actually mean especially when I'm referring to my own identity and I think Indian, South Asian, etc etc fulfill that purpose better as far as I'm concerned

These woke kids today with their critical valyrian race theory should pick up a history textbook to learn what glory Targaryens got with their cultural practices and honour the heritage!!!
