@RL_Dane I think this was my only reply: https://social.librem.one/@golemwire/109350754047874586
The second/last post in the chain is mostly uppercase though....

@RL_Dane It looks like they have blocked me as well; when I view that link in private browsing mode I can see Raspberry_Pi's post I was replying to.

@RL_Dane (Ack also https://raspberrypi.social/@Raspberry_Pi/109338352955901419 -- "@jessmahler Click the link for more photos and find them on Instagram for *video*" ugh they dared to )

@golemwire

Ugh. That's just beyond the pale.

@RL_Dane I think it is the most intense message I have posted on social media so far

@golemwire

Eww. Not classy. But not porn. Everyone's fully clothed. Maybe not *tastefully* clothed, but clothed.

Supposedly, there are gyms that teach pole dancing (fully clothed) because it's supposed to be a great workout.

I can imagine.
Hard pass.

@RL_Dane I mean maybe it isn't 'technically porn' in the sense they technically have clothing, but as I understand the word any media that is supposed to be erotic is porn.

@RL_Dane Maybe I should be calling what Raspberry_Pi posted "softcore porn"

@golemwire

That's definitely a broader category; I think that'd fit.

I'm not as keen on the word, "erotic," as it doesn't technically have to be fleshly to be erotic. I mean, it generally is; I'm not trying to pull the wool over your eyes.
But the meaning of the word is pretty nuanced. It can have more to do with emotion than lust.

@RL_Dane Hmm, I guess there is the feeling preceding lust, sexual attraction.
(I thought I'd CW because anyone who follows both of us sees our posts, right, and the words we are using can be annoying out of context, at least in my opinion)

@golemwire

"Eros" is a complex topic. The way the Greeks used the word isn't exactly the same as the way we use "erotic."

Eros was one of the Greek gods, so although it is a fleshly subject overall, there's also a certain kind of reverence. It's interesting. I highly recommend perusing some of the Platonic dialogues. As philosophy goes, they're really quite approachable.

There's a reason why Middle Ages Christian philosophers considered the Socratic philosophers as nearly saints.

@RL_Dane Gyms that teach pole dancing -- that sounds about right. Yah hard pass
