One of those shouldn't even be on the list.

When they know its a problem, but need thr validation more than the need the internal growth.

Yeah, cuz we needed a social media app for the gym disguised as a "tracker." Technological ingenuity for the betterment of our lives and Humanity, am I right?

Consider for yourselves whether your mood is as cured by going to thr gym as you think it is. Otherwise, why does your mood need to be "cured" so often? "Cure" connotes lasting relief from symptoms. Do you mean its actually possible the gym ISN'T the miracle cure? 🤯

Now if we could wake up without being as bad or worse towards each other than the heterosexuals, we might actually make some progress.

Notice who gets "get life."

Its not just the conservative ones. It's also the highly insecure ones from every other walk of life who choose disordered eating and gym habits over dealing with their inner issues.

Like that would happen 😆

Only in western society in 2026 could you have people so actutely aware of their own insecurity, people so willing to make it everyone else's problem, and still *never* have to address that radioactive waste that is that insecurity... so long as people enjoy seeing you flex 😒

So is the state of the gay male-identifying community.

Could not care less about a basic looking dude doing basic ass things signaling for basic ass validation.

Happy Friday only to the people who haven't felt an incessant compulsion to flex and put in on the internet in the last 24 hours.

You don't look happy (the smiles are giving forced "babes"), and some of you admit to as much. More than you think, it's not as subtle as you convince yourself it is. And worst all? Whether they admit it or not, getting likes on the internet and performing desirability still matters more.

What I find ironic about gym gays, and those who pretend they're into and accepting of fat either by pandering or signaling, is that yall know making a place you don't need and have to pay for your only notable and defining trait... doesn't work. And some will admit to as much.

Bluesky or distortion vacuum?

Anywhere you let gays linger too long gets appropriated into a Gay fitness app so long as they're never corrected or held to a different standard. The "Halo Effect" cannot be the only currency at play anymore.

I used to be so excited about the "community" that "prided" itself on being the space non-hetero individuals to feel safe and seen. How many of you wish you could *also* go back and tell your younger self that the "community" is just a magnified microcosm of society at large?

How many of you actually spend time with someone who doesn't look like you, by choice? Or with someone who doesn't have the same three interests as you? When was the last time you stepped out of the vacuum you pretend doesn't make you miserable?

Love that gainers are "gross," "disgusting," "ruining themselves." But ever since toxic gym gays appropriated the term "muscle gainer," everyone with a gym membership is suddenly obsessed with "I'm growing," "I'm getting bigger." 😒

How many of you posting "omg happy TDOV" on social media have actually contributed to making trans/non-binary folks feel invisible? Especially if they haven't transitioned in a way that makes them "passable" to you, or in a way where you can lust after them. #TDOV

Wild to me that feed labeled "Gay gainers & chubs" has more "acceptable" bodies than gainers or clubs.

How many of you are so on top of the daily themes (monochrome Monday, tummy Tuesday, etc), or post rigorously because the silence or absence of parasocial engagement is intolerable? When was the last time you had something truly meaningful to share?

The insecurity is visible when you need to call yourself "thick" or call a part of your body "fat" when you're built like the letters "I" or "Y." "Babe."

Some of us don't really get to just go out and "choose" to share life with another. Some of us have been filtered out of being an option due to things we can't change in this fast, social media validation forward society. Happy for you and all, AND this take assumes everyone starts on equal footing.

Gotta say, I spend more time scrolling past the 85% gym slop to find the 15% of... literally anything fucking else 🥴

How many of you are *genuinely* attracted to someone that looks actually different from you? And attraction does not mean "I jerk off to content but put it away and pretend I don't once I reach the post-orgasm clarity. And I'd never engage with someone actually different in a meaningful way irl."

What an easy claim to make after one's put themselves squarely in the "socially acceptable" category.

At this point? Backgrounds are the only way I know I'm looking at a diferent person. Or even a different picture of the same person.

A lotta people don't about being unique (truly), individual, or contributing what only they can bring "to the table." A lotta people only care about fitting the mold because they're terrified of discomfort or being left behind.

Do y'all actually *like* looking like copies of each other? Have differences become such a hostile concept that boxing oneself into uniformity is the only "safe" option? Idk, I wouldn't be content to be "generic caricature of humanity # 3224" but go off sis.
