I found this Youtube channel run by a Japanese chef and it’s actually better than porn? First all all his cinematography is off the charts. Youtube videos have no business looking that good. Second of all, everything he makes looks SO TASTY, and he explains the recipes in such a simple, soothing, manner. Third off all, he does this all while his two adorable kitties watch??? Like… they are so intent on what hes doing but they never run around or hop on the counter???? He has a stool for them to sit on as he makes his recipes Im gunna die
Look at this and tell me it isnt the best thing on youtube
he and his (American) wife have a youtube vlogging channel all about being an international couple and they have thREE CATS THAT HE COOKS WITH
You should see the video where he restores a knife…
Incorrect, he has two cats he cooks with, Haku and Nagi. If Poki were permitted into the kitchen when Jun cooked, he would immediately throw himself into the pan, determined to eat whatever was in it.
Poki is my favorite cat. uwu
poki sounds like my cat jasper
how did he film such a lovely video by candlelight? i’m impressed! also it’s so restful, and he has beautiful hands, and the kitties are so cute. it made my morning. thank you for sharing.
Poki is actually in his newest video:
My terrible trash cat finally graduates to being in cooking videos ❤ Im so proud of him ❤
The term “nb lesbian” always makes me stumble momentarily and tbh it’s definitely bc I’m not as well-versed in the nb LGBT community as I’d like to be.
Nb lesbians, yall are valid n fine, I’m not questioning that; I’m just confused on the definition of the term “lesbian” if it’s not strictly used for wlw? Again, I’m..still learning the ins and outs of nonbinary gender, but if you’re nb doesn’t that mean you don’t identify strictly as a man or woman–by extension wouldn’t that mean that nb wouldn’t be “wlw” but more “wlnb”??
In the past couple months I’ve been seeing “nb lesbian” used for the first that I’ve seen and I’m tryin to figure if the gay community is expanding the term “lesbian” to: woman loving woman + woman loving nonbinary? If so, that’s really cool and I dig it–but I can’t seem to find any resources about nb lesbians that aren’t terfy or dismissive of nb folks, so I’m not sure if I’m coming to the right conclusion. It’s also like…way inappropriate to approach acquaintance nb lesbians I see in passing on tumblr abt this, and I don’t have any current nb lesbian buddies to maybe talk with abt it
Do I have any nb lesbian followers who might wanna offer their input? I’ve got anon on as always if you’d like to stay private
Been thinkin on myself too. Honestly I don’t think an nb partner would be out of my realm of attraction as a lesbian? I just know I can’t handle men hitting on me and I’ve never felt attraction to them.
Hhhh..but would saying that I’m a lesbian/wlw with a nb partner be transphobic as it would insinuate (by terminology at least) that my partner was considered a woman? Or though I guess if lesbian is moving to include wlw + wlnb, it would also include nblw? Or would we be in bi territory since it’s technically 2 genders of attraction?
I’m..need help please
as a nb gay guy (so, you know, not what you asked about, but it seems like the same topic on the other side? Hope I’m not overstepping!), for me to has to do with the way my nb identity is very close to male, but not quite, and also with the fact that I figured out I was into guys before I figured out I was nonbinary.
I knew I was trans when I was younger, but I thought I was a trans man for a very long time. Only once people stopped referring to me as a girl did I realize that “man” didn’t QUITE fit either. I still use he/him pronouns because I’m closer to “guy” than I am to anything else that has a name, and because people used to use they/them to subtly misgender me before I realized I was nb. So I think dysphoria around how I’m referred to has to do with it (specifically that I’m most comfortable being referred to as male even though it’s not a perfect fit), as well as how I identified when I was figuring out my sexuality.
“I like guys, but in a gay way” was an important distinction for me, and it’s not one I’m willing to let go of, because it still feels correct. I really had to fight to have my relationship be recognized as actually gay (because people were so insistent on misgendering me and by extension my relationship), so at this point it’s a “you’ll pry this label from my cold dead fingers” sort of situation. I had to earn it, so I get to keep it.
NB people who are read as their assigned sex at birth and identify as G/L will have different experiences about this, obviously, but I think a lot of dfab wlw have also had to fight for the ability to call themselves lesbians (because heteronormativity and coercive heterosexuality are so pervasive and awful), and I suspect it’s a similar sentiment.
Another part of it is that there simply isn’t language to describe EXACTLY what I am, and it IS directly adjacent and functionally indistinguishable from being gay. I’m a (nonbinary) man in a relationship with a man, and although I might have attraction slightly outside of just men, I’m pretty sure it’s limited to men and other nonbinary people who are like me (which is to say, ID as sort of men or sometimes men or something close to male). So my identity is more accurately something like “sort of a guy who likes people who are guys or guy adjacent” but that’s complicated and hard to explain and also just really long (and gets even more complicated when I think about where I am on the aro/ace spectrum). “Gay” is easier, gets the point across, and has an entire culture too.
And that’s the last point I want to make, which is that it also just feels better to belong to a group that you’re MOSTLY part of, than to say “10% of me feels out of place here with all these people, so fuck the other 90%, guess I’m on my own.”
For the other question: Some people respond to “I could be interested in nb people who ID as close to the gender I’m otherwise attracted to” by saying “that means I’m bi” (and those people ARE bi) but for me it’s honestly not broad enough of a distinction to feel like that term fits (which is why I’m gay).
A nb person dating someone who says they’re gay will either be comfortable or uncomfortable based on the individual and that specific dynamic. For some, it might make them uncomfortable or feel invalidating; for others it doesn’t. It’s a fuzzier topic than people are sometimes comfortable with, but in the end it’s up to the individual which labels feel most accurate to them for their own reasons.
the amount of people I see quoting and reccing Running on Air in the tag has watered my crops and fed my children for a generation
