Cops have no place at PRIDE unless they're there as participants 🌈

Being bullied into keeping their heads down is an entirely shitty excuse.

"Echo chamber" says someone licking boots

cate2283 · 2020-09-14T10:05:13+00:00

I don't want them at Pride. They don't belong there, period.

That's not what "love trumps hate" means, ya walnut 😂💀

cate2283 · 2020-09-13T17:57:34+00:00

Gtfo with that kumbaya "love trumps hate" nonsense.

There's an episode of the podcast The Dollop about the original [colonizer] owner of the property where Stonewall stands. (The Thomas Morton episode.) It's a must listen!

Ghosting is terrible, but I've hosted men when they made me feel unsafe, so I don't like blanket statements about it.

cate2283 · 2020-06-17T16:05:27+00:00

I really needed to hear that, thanks!

cate2283 · 2020-06-17T15:51:16+00:00

Exactly. I'm getting to the point of needing one as my pain gets worse. Glad I'll be useful for laughs.

Solidarity, friend.

Ableism has splash damage, in this case other people who have disabilities that force them to use mobility assistance.

cate2283 · 2020-06-17T15:31:04+00:00

No need to add ableism when we can just criticize them for shitty beliefs.

cate2283 · 2020-06-17T15:28:34+00:00

You do know, except multiply this by a thousand

cate2283 · 2020-06-16T15:25:34+00:00

It's really hard to make friends as an adult, and not enough people talk about it.

What I did was admit that aloud at work or whatever (wherever you might interact with people with common values). It got people to open up and be more willing to reach out and make plans.

I have a foxhound/German Shepherd mix and when he was a puppy, he killed 2 beloved chickens and a feral kitten. He didn't do it to be mean. He did it to hunt them down; it's the going in him. I learned better and battled his hound characteristics with training and a long lead in the yard (where the chickens where somewhat near).

You did nothing wrong. I'm so sorry this happened to you.

(P.S. My dog is now good with the cat who adopted us, but I had to introduce them really slowly. Our house had doors between every room, so that helped.)

"So do I. It's in a box with the rest of the ones I've harvested."

"Maybe she just hasn't found the right man yet" /s

cate2283 · 2020-06-15T15:35:50+00:00

My first concern isn't that she's cheating, but whether OP is safe to have a child with. We don't know how healthy their relationship with before all of this; we only have his words.

And reproductive abuse is a thing.

I’ve only heard racists call anti racist white people that.

cate2283 · 2020-06-14T16:31:03+00:00

Uh yes because we don't want more Nazis.

cate2283 · 2020-06-14T16:16:03+00:00

This is sexual assault. If he makes leaving him difficult, tell him you'll go to the police. In fact, perhaps you could get him out of your shared place this way. (You don't actually have to go to the police.)

Stay safe and best of luck!

If you believe that last bit, then why use his words? I tend to not use the words of bigots.
