Tim reacts to a Postmates pride commercial about a 'bottom friendly' food menu meant to help with anal sex, riffing on niche kinks like blood play, watersports, and breath play that don't get their own menus, and complains that corporate pride marketing reduces gay people to sex jokes.
- Tim explains why corporations trying to be allies during Pride comes across as offensive: it fetishizes gay people rather than treating them with dignity.
- Burger King's top-and-bottom bun marketing is the kind of crass oversimplification that misses the actual diversity of gay sexuality.
- Tim catalogs sexual practices—blood play, bug chasing, watersports—that aren't represented on any corporate Pride menu, highlighting the absurdity of a one-size-fits-all approach.
- Postmates introduces a 'bottom friendly' menu developed with a proctologist to recommend foods for anal sex, centered around avoiding insoluble fiber.
- Tim argues that eating potatoes or anything normal followed by sex isn't actually a problem—worst case someone has an accident, which is just part of it.
- The core issue: this reduces gay people to sex and nothing else, something no corporation would dare do to other groups during their heritage months.
- Tim points out that if Postmates is making menus for specific sexual practices, where are the menus for every other identity and kink—trans, non-binary, BDSM, asphyxiation fetishists?
- Tim addresses the contradiction: these companies claim to support gay people while simultaneously being tone-deaf and reducing them to crude sexual stereotypes.
