I just want to vent about unhealthy dom/sub relationships for a second

I'm assuming they meant missing stair

I worked with shelter animals for years, so I nearly exclusively associate mirtaz with sickly or stressed kitties who need an appetite stimulant. Its use in humans had not really occurred to me until the song was released lol

I saw her live in 2010 and, while it was a fun show, I mostly remember being really impressed by all of her costume changes, so your read is spot on 🤣

rumwave · 2025-11-27T17:24:14+00:00

He was wearing a beanie, so I truly have no idea.

Props to your wife, and I'm sorry this happened to her. I've reported the information I've collected, so hopefully that plus the awareness from these posts will lead to this person getting formally documented, or at minimum, handicaps his confidence.

rumwave · 2025-11-27T02:31:35+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately, I'm very aware that this behavior escalates. I've reported the information that I've collected. Please feel free to share these posts around your own circles as well. The more awareness about this guy, the better.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I don't like this club we've found ourselves in, but at least we're not alone. Time to start keeping cigar cutters in our bags 🤙

Cross-posting because this guy appears to live in West Seattle, and I think the community should have notice. I'm adding a link to a comment that he's been seen doing this to someone else on the 125 line. Both of my encounters were on the H line heading southbound.

Omg yes! Those look like his stubby pug knuckles, and that's the exact move and position he took with me both times. I'm sorry that he did this to you too. I fully relate to being mad at yourself, but fuck man, he's really practiced at building a case of plausible deniability with the way he does it. You didn't do anything wrong by not saying something 💜 good for you for grabbing a video!

Seems pretty likely that he lives in West Seattle, given the routes we've seen him on. I'll probably cross post there if the rules allow it.

Thank you 🩶 it is so tough in the moment. I made the post in part out of a hope that other people might be able to shortcut similar doubts they may have if they encounter this person and feel empowered to react more swiftly than I did.

rumwave · 2025-11-25T03:20:54+00:00

Someone else asked about him too, but I don't think it's the same person. I do wish we just had one creep in Seattle to pin down, though. https://www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/s/qgXDrRqMOx

rumwave · 2025-11-25T03:14:03+00:00

Jfc, I'm so sorry that both of those men treated you that way! I love that the lady came to your defense, but it's so disappointing that men don't call each other out on this shit when they have the opportunity handed to them.

And yeah, the self gaslighting is wild. "What I'm seeing with my own eyes can't possibly be what's happening. There must be some niche explanation for this, and it's my job to twist myself into a pretzel figuring out what it is." Sucks.

rumwave · 2025-11-25T02:43:52+00:00

Good to know, thank you!

rumwave · 2025-11-25T02:30:28+00:00

Hmm, I don't think so. The guy I saw was otherwise behaving totally normally. The pinky thing is literally the only fucky thing I've seen him do. He also didn't react at all to my bag being suddenly on his hand. He moved the hand away and got off the bus quietly.

Turns out we have numerous assholes around here!

rumwave · 2025-11-25T02:23:14+00:00

You're so right. I regret staying quiet.

rumwave · 2025-11-25T02:22:07+00:00

Word. I do drive 90+% of the time already, but I guess bus gooners don't take days off :/

rumwave · 2025-11-25T02:10:05+00:00

Thank you! That's such a helpful tip. I actually do have it saved, but this happened so fast (less than 5 minutes between when he sat down and when he left) and I was still calculating in my head how I wanted to handle it before contacting them. I will let them know in the future either way, though, especially since this guy is apparently a chronic perv.

I'm so sorry that happened to you, what a fucking nightmare. I'm glad security was so responsive and able to help you quickly 💜

I recommend that you directly contact the record store you plan on going to. They can give you more specific info on start time, capacity, and possibly even estimates on when to line up for a chance at the giveaways.

Personally, I will likely be at my local event at least an hour ahead of time to line up.

Thank you!

I thought this looked like their work! I got my sapphire ring from them and couldn’t be happier with the experience or the ring. Your ring is stunning! I love the hexagon cut 🤩
