CW: terms and phrases I might have invented that I'm trying to coin - will update post to add more
#GyneQueerPlatonic: a mixture of #QueerPlatonic, which is something between, or besides, platonic and romantic and gynephile which is afaik used for a sexual attraction towards women and feminine people. So gynequeerplatonic is an orientation where you want to have something friendship-partnership-like (no sex) with a feminine person.
#LAPAProblems: You shouldn't use the word "first world", because it implies that that region is somewhat better. LAPA is the term used nowadays, which stands for least affected people and areas. The opposite is MAPA (most affected...). It's mostly about being affected by the repercussions of the climate crisis afaik, but it's used basically for being affected by any hardship.
#FediSplaining: I think I was the first one to use this word in a post that didn't make it through my Mastodon profile's auto-delete process.
It means explaining the downsides of corporate social media and how the Fediverse is different to someone, like they were a child, even though they didn't give any indication that that was how they needed it explained or that they needed it explained at all. I admit, I sometimes do this.#FreeSpeechMisunderstanding: Instead of the more common "free speech extremism". If you're wrong about something your not extreme about it, but wrong. Free speech doesn't mean that everybody who has a platform has to open that platform to your hate speech.
