i've seen enough people trying to justify their hateful words and actions in this past month to last a lifetime. despite this, i am still aggressively optimistic. we have, are, and will continue to survive and thrive in the face of hardship.
@MillieDStar@DazzlingMellie it pisses me off so bad when someone has the same issues as me but they're less likely to get help than i am just because of a "cringe" personality or not being considered conventionally attractive. i try to challenge that by being assertively supportive.
@EtherealDizy@HellvetikaSan@thereisnobeth that's what i'm saying !!! like the whole part of a community is growing together and supporting each other. holding space for people speaking on their own experiences does not go away the minute it includes someone within the community...
@CrisprChild this happened when my work did a potluck for cinco de mayo and they didn't know to cook the tortillas, so i bet a lottt of ppl just wrote them off as bad 😭
