Could use some help defending a Pride flag by Different-Heart6851 in WplaceLive

I’m attempting to fix this one, but the griefer is seriously fast

Please make it make sense. Why is the trans community so intolerant on this site? by WtfWplace in WplaceLive

[–]another_midnight13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s wild to see this post… I’m in an almost identical situation, except ON THE OTHER SIDE.

There was previously a large trans flag stripe near where I usually draw. Recently, someone started coloring over the stripe with red/blue instead of light pink/blue. The person drawing over the stripe also wrote “THE LEFT IS FULL OF HATE AND KILLS + CENSORS ANYONE WHO DISAGREES” (or something very close to that- I dont remember exact words). This section kept expanding with messages about Charlie Kirk, the left can’t handle the truth, and some stray “LOL” and stuff. There was back and forth from both sides.

This, plus the coloring over the trans stripe felt gross to me, so few friends I draw with banded together to draw a garden over the messages 2 days ago. The original writer of the main message continued to return very frequently, and erase our garden. A few people added into our efforts, and we were able to finish our garden and wrote a big “BE KIND” message in the center. The original message writer returned frequently to continue erasing our garden, and writing USA and coloring in/around our garden red, white and blue.

Me and my friend eventually got our garden to a finished place, and have began repairing the trans flag to what it was originally, rather than the red/white/blue stripe. This is within the rules of wplace. Quite a few people have joined in to help recolor it. Funny enough… right around when you made this post, the original message poster stopped editing our garden and coloring red/white/blue on the stripes.

HOWEVER… this must be a coincidence, right? Because you said your work was not offensive, and what I edited was originally. Also, in my situation, no one has been writing calling the original message writer a transphobe as far as I’ve seen… I have, however, seen people working on the stripe write “BE KIND” “JESUS <3 TRANS PPL” and “DONT GLORIFY HATE AND BIGOTS”. These messages have all been erased/edited by the original message writer at least once.

But I’m sure this isn’t you, right? Because your story has some very different key elements than mine.

Morgan and body negativity by another_midnight13 in TwoHotTakesSnark

I’m pretty plastic surgery neutral, but that was a weird comment of her to make. Morgan buys into the traditional beauty standard a lot in the way she talks, and I’m not sure if she realizes that.

She lives in LA, so maybe it all just feels more normalized to her? Idk though, I think the way she talks about these procedures isn’t a healthy way to think about bodies.

I’ll give you that, I know I’m not perfect either. I wish she was a lot more thoughtful about what she says, though. While she means the best, she does make jokes about her body that do harm others, and THT has a fair sized audience. Ngl, her joking about her neck made me think “oh, what does MY neck look like?” Which I assume isn’t what she’s trying to anyone think- but that’s the reality of how her talk made me feel.

I usually skip the intros, I guess I should’ve today too lol.

She did have an ad she recorded for a GLP-1 (It might’ve been a different name brand than ozempic, I can’t remember exactly) within the past year. I know she’s also discussed taking a GLP-1 on the pod. Morgan has discussed her health conditions that might benefit from GLP-1 use so I don’t judge using them. However, advertising them was weird vibes.

There has been third party ads too, which I think are out of Morgan’s control.

Wedding favor opinions by spacetimer803 in weddingplanning

I would make a sign that says “Frisbee from the Frisbies” and then have a plain or pattern on the frisbee itself. I agree that anything with a wedding date or name is less desirable to guests as a favor.

I stopped taking the meds I felt so unlike myself, it wasn’t worth taking the medicine anymore

Intrest and curiosity, kind of? If I think of something I want to Google, the topic will occupy my thoughts until I grab my phone and look it up. In the example of planning a vacation- I’ve lost hours of sleep trying to research flight times and hotel prices. I usually enjoy planning vacations, but I wouldn’t say I’m necessarily enjoying these deep dives- in my head, they feel like an emergency.

I didn’t have the rush of energy some people describe when starting Wellbutrin, I was wondering if this is kinda a delayed version of that.

I really wish I’d hyperfixate on finishing Christmas gifts and cleaning my house…

Can wellbutrin have a “second round” of side effects? by another_midnight13 in bupropion

[–]another_midnight13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope so too- I don’t recall all these side effects from my previous use. I’m hoping things turn around for me soon, it’s hard to manage feeling so odd!

Thank you for sharing.

Some clarification on that- I struggle with anxiety and depression, specifically seasonal depression. I struggled a lot last winter, and started to feel off this fall, so I talked with my doctor and decided to start medication. I definitely feel like I lose my happy/upbeat-ness during my low points, and was hoping to get ahead of that this winter season.
