What does #Achillean mean in #LGBTQ+ #terminology?
Achillean refers to #men (or #male-#identifying #individuals) who are #attracted to other #men, but is used more like an #umbrellaterm for #gay, #bisexual, #pansexual, and otherwise #queer #men, and can include #trans and #nonbinary people who are also attracted to #men.

To use or not to use the term "#megafire"? 🔥
After Linley et al. (2022) suggested a standardized definition (> 10,000 ha extent) to reduce ambiguity, a new perspective by Stoof et al. (2023) recommends not using the term at all in science:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/geb.13791I'm a fan of clear definitions and standardization of #terminology, but at the same time also wondering if we really need a special term for fires of a certain extent?

CW: Slut Journal
I’m not sure if it’s people lack of awareness of their interest and needs, or the insufficient labels offered to us. Top. Bottom. Vers. Vers top. Vers bottom.
The bear and BDSM codes / surveys might seem silly on the surface. What they do though is provide a better insight. They give a basis for conversation or exploration.
I consider my list of interests a perversions a menu and not a checklist. Never have I met anyone who liked or wanted all of them. Nor am I always in the mood for everything. Hehe
But just now I had a “vers top” try and convince me I’d enjoy being sucked and he really enjoys being face fucked. After I told him I have very low top energy. Maybe I’m speaking a different language. But I blocked them. He wanted something very different and the communication clearly wasn’t working.

The name for the algebraic structure consisting of a set \(A\) equipped with a binary operation \(f\colon A^2\to A\) which is not assumed to be commutative, associative, etc. has an interesting history. As far as I can tell, this sort of algebra was originally known as a "groupoid", and you can find recent literature using the term in that way. However, Nicolas Bourbaki called a set with a single binary operation a "magma" in his Éléments de mathématique and this name came to be used when there might be confusion with the newer topological use of "groupoid" to mean a category whose morphisms are all invertible. A third contender is "binar". I don't know the history of this one but it seems reasonable to me.
I prefer "magma" myself. I don't know what a "lava" or a "volcano" should be nor have I had the audacity to try to name something like this in the literature. One reason I prefer "magma" is that I can talk about a set \(A\) equipped with a single \(n\)-ary operation \(f\colon A^n\to A\) as an "\(n\)-ary magma" (or just "\(n\)-magma" or even "magma").
