@BoneJail@elijahwood@alamodrafthouse THANK YOU. Shocked they didn’t figure out this obvious flaw in the system. I had to get my fiancée’s phone out & turn his flashlight on so that my phone could read the QR code. Which- obviously theater etiquette major sin. Beyond annoying for me & I’m sure everyone around me.
@beammeupscotti7@damzlinthisdres part of healing is realizing not everyone is being passive-aggressive. Sometimes we express things w/o thinking & the people who love us respond. don’t think she would have been upset if he didn’t pack her lunch (passive aggressive). This is being genuinely surprised and grateful
@RachelPAV@Tyler_A_Harper Part of why rural people don’t vote is because they don’t see a reason to do so. I think we owe rural communities a conversation and a reason and a passion. I think respecting rural communities is sitting down and saying “some of this shit is backwards”
@RachelPAV@Tyler_A_Harper As a person who loves my backwards space, I think it’s my responsibility to say “I love this place. This isn’t okay.” Of course outsiders can get lost but Texas is my home and it’s my responsibility to care for it. Even if it alienates people.
@RachelPAV@Tyler_A_Harper I guess this is a core difference. I love my hometown but it is backwards. If you don’t think places can be backwards, we just disagree fundamentally. I do agree that no one can speak on my town who hasn’t been there. And of course you can’t talk to us like we’re inferior.
@RachelPAV@Tyler_A_Harper As someone in a similar situation, I ask genuinely- if your hometown is backwards, why can’t we say that? My hometown is backwards. That’s just a fact. We aren’t doing it any service by lying. Who does that benefit? Not you, not me, not the people living there
The State of Texas killed Ivan Cantu last night. I was there with him, standing near his face, holding his hand, and praying into his ear until the chemicals killed him. God's grace was with him and with me.
