O’Shae Sibley, a gay man, was dancing while filling up a car at a Brooklyn gas station when men attacked him with slurs and told him to stop. A man stabbed him, and Sibley was pronounced dead at a hospital. A hate crimes task force is investigating. https://t.co/YYxkIH1FTt

I usually forget how much my dad *sees* me, & then I call him crying & he spends an hour talking to me about equanimity & compassion; that compassion isn’t about fixing the world/myself/others but spaciousness for understanding. And that I’m not stupid for crying and snotting.
Like, he gets his rocks off by watching videos of *random people living their lives* and working himself into a froth? What an unimaginably fragile ego.
I ended up in a TikTok react video from a big name fascist transphobe. And after getting over the initial upset I’m just left with how absolutely lame and pathetic it is that that’s how he spends his time?
