This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

What for do you need representation? I don’t need it. I don’t even know what should or could represent me.
I don’t identify with anything. I am just my self as I am. What use would it have to identify with something? None.
It’s purely corporations trying to make capital gains off cultural phenomena (useless currents that will fizzle out just to get replaced with the next trend - LGB was followed by LGBT and was followed by LGBTQIA+++, it’s the endless progression of a subculture, something big corporation can milk like Star Wars or any other brandable shit), it’s like some Christian dumbass buying a beer because some tortured guy is printed on it.
It has become so laughable nowadays, that Id imagine only some “woke” boomers would fall for it. But nope. Tons of stupid people from all age groups are celebrating their own belief of being rebellious and innovative, or shall I say the belief to improve the world. And big corporations love it. They love the drama and the attention they can generate with the trend hunters.
Your privilege is showing, mate! Tuck that shit in, nobody wants to see that.
Don't encourage the cishet white ignoramus. You'll lose a shoe wading through that shit.
