      I love/hate Subaru

      They’ve never had a good diesel engine. The one they did have would split crankshafts IIRC.

      Their petrol engines are pretty boring unless turbocharged… And in Europe they don’t do a lot of turbos outside of the WRX and STI models

      Oh and CVT longevity kinda sucks too

      But on the other hand, the AWD is excellent, Outback as a taller but not too tall wagon was very comfy (now it’s a crossover sadly), especially in the slightly tallet USDM version. Etc.

      My ex got our Outback and I replaced it with the cheapest available A6 Allroad. Much better vehicle in all but reliability though in its defense it has twice the kilometers and is 6 years older (2007 vs 2013). Better driving dynamics, fuel economy, comfort, and ride height can be low or high. Also has a traditional autobox.

        … So, are you queer? Because in my experience bad representations of queer sex/relationships are a huge portion of the experience.

            I dont know what all this means

            What is a queer spectrum?

            What is “pan married”? As opposed to normal marriage?

            IDK what genitals you have so you may not be able to relate to the sexual aspect specifically as shown here, but do you never get tired of seeing the wild misrepresentation of what poly relationships are like in media?

              Speaking just personally, I don’t really care myself how Poly is represented. My polyqueue is a happy little dynamic and that’s what matters. If media wants to say “haha look at us, we’re poly” and it’s just a bunch of group sex without the actual realization they are all individual relationships the same as mono ones, so be it.

              Then again, poly in media is pretty under-represented. Lesbians in media are almost over-represented because of the ease of over sexualization of it. So I can totally understand your annoyance in the manufactured representation.

              I suppose I came off a bit much in my first comment. I just know a couple lesbian friends who trib and they enjoy it.

                It’s a square/rectangle thing, really. Tribbing is absolutely a thing, scissoring as a specific type of tribbing (as it is represented in porn) really isn’t.

                I suppose I came off a bit much in my first comment.

                I’ll be real, it’s pretty disheartening to get from a queer person the same kind of casual dismissal I get from (ex) my conservative-leaning relatives when correcting exhaustively common stereotypes about queer women. I’m sincerely glad you’re okay with the common stereotypes of you though.

        It’s “real” in that yes you can just rub your junk on stuff, including someone else’s junk - it’s not real in that it’s not, like, something people actually do, or that feels particularly stimulating for both partners just because of the geometry (it’s borderline impossible to get your bits to mutually line up). Basically as it’s commonly depicted, it’s not real. There’s stuff you can do with mutual thighs that can be quite nice if it works anatomically for you and your partner, but I’ve never seen that done in porn (and believe me I’ve looked)

    I don’t get the “horse denier” sticker. Otherwise yeah.

    Also scissoring is more about mutual fun, not like actually cumming imo…

    Business idea: Scissorerscossorlift. It’s a regular scissor lift, but marketed towards lesbians. Maybe it comes with a bundled CD of Scissor Sisters, just for that extra pandering to a market I know nothing about.

      Marketing campaign in the 90s. The marketing campaign was launched because market research discovered that there was already a sizable customer base of lesbians though.

      Subarus are a very practical vehicle for people who like city living but also go out to festivals or go on hiking trips, they’re pretty reliable, they’re fairly popular on the pretty gay west coast so they can be found used pretty commonly and they’re one of the few common vehicles in the US that are comfortably sized for women to drive (Volvo is also popular for similar reasons, and it has a silly name)
