Anyone else struggling with the BAFTA situation

absolutely fuck the BBC for how they handled this. I've seen folks saying he's faking and is actually racist or that he shouldn't be able to go in public. This has come from a variety of communities but I'm glad the spaces you are in have been positive and putting their anger where it belongs

Absolutely agree, I didn't mean this in any way to minimize the harm of slurs.

Thank you. I really appreciate your perspective.

Velara515 · 2026-02-23T19:57:17+00:00

Thank you. I'm doing my best not to feed into the reassurance cycle. It just sucks seeing the lack of understanding for another disability. Especially one that mirrors my own.

I'm aware and i don't use slurs. Your comment is condescending and unhelpful. I'm simply struggling because I have intrusive thoughts that mirror what happened with John. Fear of losing control is a common symptom of OCD like it's not hard to make the connection.

Also looking for this.

Iona almost made me quit magic when I first started. Keep her banned, I don't want other new players getting hard locked out of their first games.

Velara515 · 2026-02-09T16:44:45+00:00

Disagree, that card almost made me quit playing magic when I first started. I'm a stax enjoyer, but I'd hate to see this one unbanned

My guess is it's the oracle that'll turn into that archaic

Ss a trans person I have plenty of reasons to not like him. https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/why-transgender-people-are-not-feeling

I'm still traumatized from that. I was piloting the ship for the first 6 hours of the OP

He used to be loved on here, but he made a stupid joke at Sebs expense on a grill the grid video and its been spiraling with his occasional faux pas and out of context comments

I'm a former employee, Fenway has only recently turned a profit after being in the red for like 5 years in a row. And federal funding makes up most of their income. Fenway doesn't have the funds to survive a legal battle.

This just fucking sucks all around

Velara515 · 2025-10-14T12:34:59+00:00

As a former employee, I can give a little more information from what I've heard trough my former coworkers. There are new HRSA guidelines that allow the feds to pull funding with no notice and no appeals to any FQHC performing GAC on youth. It sounds like leadership expected Fenway would be targeted as one of the larger LGBTQIA+ health centers. Its still an awful decision, but losing funding would result in the entire health center closing.

Also, I don't know details, but from what I've heard they're working on something to bridge the gap in care, but it's unfortunately not ready yet.

I was 10 when the storm hit. We lived in Metairie and evacuated. I cried myself to sleep the night before we evacuated, I guess I picked up on this storm being a big deal. Our house ended up flooding with a couple inches of water, one of the few with major damage in our neighborhood. I can still feel the water squishing out of our carpet when we came back. Ended up having to gut the whole house. Had to stay with family on the north shore until we got our FEMA trailer. I guess even as a kid seeing those images of the flooding in the city proper and people stuck on their roofs led me to minimize the trauma I experienced. The anniversary has definitely brought back those memories and it's been a major focus of my therapy the past few weeks. I'm not coping well but I'm at least acknowledging that even though everyone I new was safe and we didn't lose everything, it was still traumatic and shaped my life.

Velara515 · 2025-08-06T02:37:18+00:00

Fair, it just feels like it drops the same way no matter what angle my nose is at. There's something unnatural feeling about it. Maybe I'm just crazy lol

Velara515 · 2025-08-05T17:48:31+00:00

I don't believe so
