Aspiring to converse and journalize of things I notice. That is truly not vague enough for my planned 'content', and... I wish you kindness and compassion! : )
I can't lie that, in my 3 weeks of actually using TwiX, I have been a part of angry trash more than I should. ONLY (I think), in response to people being offensive. Not a reason that makes it better, and I hate that I do it at least as much as I like doing it ;)
I am weird. Typically I am only interested in engaging with people who have differing perspectives, because I cannot learn anything from what I am already steeped in. (I always have to reiterate, that is not me saying I am a lefty, just that's what I am exposed to more often)
I have had a handful (a lot imo) of really great conversations with people that, was more than a slight negative interaction.
Everybody wants to shut down discourse for superficial reasons and perceived, or real, anger. Difficult conversations ARE difficult, duh. Arguments are natural for communication, and can/should be very productive.
There is much less to be gained by consuming media and surrounding yourself with those you are familiar already.
There is this simple minded thing older siblings do to the younger. They come within an inch of your face with their hand and say 'I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you, I'm not touchin-' *SMACK* as they inevitably are hit.
The older sibling feigns ignorance and says they 'weren't doing anything'.
It's a bitch move
This tweet is a cheap smear with zero evidence behind it.
Plenty of people (myself included) object to Mamdani's record & associations. Make that argument if you want.
But don't baselessly accuse the mayor of NYC of attending a 9/11 memorial service to "gloat" and turn a day meant to honor victims, families, and first responders into a political attack.
Disgusting.
@Villgecrazylady@Villgecrazylady Interesting fact about his firings. Just days before the war started, Hegseth cleared house in the civilian harm reduction part of the military...
May have been good to have in retrospect
@mrosazza Incited to attack the people who went there specifically to harass a bunch of children exercising their right to protest the government?
Playing the 'I'm not touching you' game and being so said that you got what you asked for
@Samikshilly I am super confused, are you trolling me? Like, I am interested in talking to whoever, and I am uncertain you are sincere because Idk what you want to talk about...
@HershiserO52524@aVeryGoodTyrone@KnownHeretic I am pretty sure private businesses can do that. Either way, you are missing my point, this is a silly thing to get up in arms about. There is no way there are conservative places that have asked trans, lgbtq, etc... to leave, right?
@hoofo5@NPFurnishing@Orwellian1903@aVeryGoodTyrone@KnownHeretic I wasn't even talking about the fucking cake thing, and you would be right, that didn't count to what I was saying. I am just pointing out that it happens all the time on both sides I am certain of this
