I know, truly I do! It's a brutal world and we're just trying to get by in it, it'd be nice if people let us do it in peace. Nonetheless keep it up and keep that flag flying, whichever one/s you choose. You got this <3

This is a pretty common question, and personally I use them interchangeably, but bi is not really distinct from pan under most definitions that are internally consistent.
Even linguistically the roots of homo/heterosexuality are same/other. As such if you are bisexual you are both homo (same) and hetero (other). Whilst linguistics is not prescriptive, it still gives us insight into the historical understandings that have birth to an idea.
In the end, be bi, be pan, identify however you choose and never listen to someone telling you that your identity is not what you choose or feel. :)
Sublems is an absolutely fantastic word that I am now adopting! E.g. "Hopefully soon Jerboa handles sublem links better in comments. That's something I loved about Relay"
Right?! Think that one was in Basingstoke? Festival Place iirc.
That said Basingstoke and Aldershot sorta have similar vibes to me.
Really the point here is that there is a certain amount of randomness and an absolute fuck ton of pathogens anywhere you might try and clean.
If you fire a billion cars into the sun at slightly random trajectories then one might just skim the outside of the sun as it melts and have enough energy to fly back out without getting utterly incinerated. Thus we could not say that the sun destroys all cars, but also if you fire your car into the sun you'd be a fool to expect to drive to work the next day.
