Because he was contrasting it with the word “ambival_ent_”, which he also italicized.

Look, **covfefe**. They’re accusing **you** of not making sense. No one understands why you made that Pit thread for **Ambivalid**.

You may just want to come out and explain what you were pitting him for, rather than trying to be clever about it. Even I have trouble understanding you.

My best guess is that you are saying you are aren’t sure if Ambivalid is really disabled. I can assure you that he is.

That said, he does seem to be stuck in the 1990s when it comes to how he sees LGBT issues. He doesn’t seem to be a bigot, just way behind the times.

I think he was supporting **Ambivalid** , in light of **ambi** ’s recent thread on tupac. A little positive energy. I think.

Try it with a trio of Jim Morrison, William S. Burroughs and Uncle Duke, taking turns with the lines and forming a chorus on some of them. Backing music by Tom Waits and Brian Eno, using “found objects”. And maybe some vocalizations by Beck thrown in for tint.

Care to articulate _how_ im such a relic in terms of lgbt issues? I strenuously and vociferously disagree. But before i go any further I’d like to hear you tell me what “way behind the times” views I hold re LGBT issues.

After reading this again, I am unsure if you are referring to me or the OP. Given the progression of posts immediately before yours, it seems like you were referring to the OP. If so, please disregard my post here.
