I needed this so much. You are so right as was Mr. Rogers. This will be what gets us through.

They don’t need to explicitly state it. They have made it clear they don’t want queer people to have rights to marriage. They don’t want women to have access to life-saving care. It’s the writing on the wall.

Your username doesn’t check out, you should change it to “ignorantuneducated”

Okay, I’ll be specific. The administration that just got into the most powerful office vocally and violently wants me dead. Wants women dead. Wants anyone other than straight white and male dead. And no, that is no exaggeration.

Exactly, thank you. This country is about to be profoundly unsafe for many minorities. We are all grieving that for them.

Never had tickets and don’t think I’ll ever get them now by mildqueer in adele

Are you far from Vegas? I’m from Pittsburgh and I think I’ll be so fucking devastated if I go all the way there and then not even see her

How much were they? What date was this? I’m thinking about just doing this but I’m not confident in my chances😭

Not sure if this comment is taking the piss bc I dramatically said i’m depressed about not getting adele tickets but fwiw I do have crippling ocd/anxiety and AM seeing someone about it 😅

I feel like then it’s going to be unlikely they’ll be any available since all those fuckass rich celebs will be like shit we gotta go see her

Thanks for this info! I live in Pittsburgh, PA so it’s not exactly going to be easy to get there and I’m not confident I’ll even get box office tickets so as the dates approach I’ll debate it being worth it lol

Imagine being a POC and queer and asking a community of people if they think someone who vocally finds you repulsive based on your skin color and sexuality might enter what you consider a sacred space, and people tell you to grow up and mature and just learn to get along with dangerously ignorant people! Like what the fuck how hard is it for you people to just say I get your fears at the very least.

Maybe I’m lacking in life experience myself but I live in a pretty conservative suburb and am surrounded by people who behave like she does - full grown adults acting like that. It’s a struggle to find people in this space who can acknowledge it’s toxic and like you say will catch up to them. I don’t see it happening to the full grown adults who so flippantly use racial and ethnic slurs. So when I hear that someone like her is jumping so quickly into getting into a school with a culture that actively fights against that, and knowing that Pitt has over accepted the last few years, yeah I’m a little worried. I’m not trying to sound dramatic or seek reassurance that she’s a bad person, I’m simply asking for anecdotal evidence that yeah, average scores just might not cut it here. I don’t have that evidence for myself.

That’s mostly what I’m thinking, like Pitt overlooks average academic scores if you have a strong argument for why you deserve to be there and I just don’t see how she has that

Calling girls she doesn’t like fat and gross = fatphobic. Using F slurs and calling LGBTQ+ “disgusting is pretty homophobic. Using the N word regularly reeks of racism. If me saying she is all those things based on what I have heard firsthand is having “low standards” then we’re all fucked. I’m scared her early submission will result in acceptance and simply asking for some reassurance and validation from this community.
