@Pavel I love that someone quoted a psychology today article at you, of all people. The irony in the attempt to inform you using a pop psych web-zine is just chef’s kiss

Now, now. I’m not an expert, and I do try to avoid appeals to authority.
It was kinda funny, though. The problem is that gaslighting is complicated and hard to define, especially when compared with ‘regular’ abuse or argument. (But people arguing on the internet don’t like complicated.)

That whole thing was bananas.

I just realized there won’t be any getting through to immature children that get handed an adult scenario, so you can disregard my last post
Or you could delete it, if you really think it’s useless and aren’t just farming for drama by leaving it up to provoke responses.

Pffft… ffffft… HAHAHAHA
Oh my god she was being serious about the LGBTQIA community being super supportive, like…
Have you actually ever actually been around another LGBTQIA person in your ENTIRE life? Sure, we support each other when there’s a bigot going for our throats, but when there’s no enemies present, honey, the claws come out. I’ve seen gay men get the crap beat out of them because they made the mistake of glancing at someone else’s boyfriend a little suggestively. I’ve seen drag queens become WWE referees at IHOP at 3am trying to stop fights, only for someone to spout a racist slur and get flattened, immediately, by said drag queen.
I’ve also seen a drag queen take off her wig and use it as a flail against someone who was just being bitchy to her, so…
This ain’t RuPaul’s best friend race, and just because me and you both fit under the Rainbow Umbrella doesn’t mean we’re gonna be besties. I support you in that you should be able to love or fuck whoever you wanna love or fuck (or NOT love or fuck, if you’re aro/ace, you belong) but you being LGBTQIA doesn’t mean you don’t get held to account for your bullshit by other LGBTQIA people.

Are you sure she’s being serious? Maybe I’m just being uncharitable because of how off-putting I found the entire performance, but that particular turn in the conversation came off to me like low-effort trolling. It’s barely any better than, “I identify as an attack helicopter, so if you criticize me you’re a transphobe!”

@GF I mean, fair. Definitely could be a troll, but I’ve absolutely seen some of the more idealistic among the LGBTQIA+ community absolutely have their minds blown when other LGBTQIA+ people were just… not friendly to them.

Apparently, that’s me now.
I’m not a bigot, just a big idiot.

@icanbeyourmuse Children get juiceboxes and lunchables. I’m a child for life.
Wine and charcuterie boards are adult juice boxes and lunchables.
Wine comes in boxes!

The actual 5 year old children who are away from their parents for the 1st time ever in Kindergarten are behaving better than this.

This accurately describes me the first time I was at the Red Cap Garage in Portland.

@junipersky You haven’t been reading. Had the action been Disciplinary, none of this would have happened here. They mention specifically “Policy 15.1 violations” when there is no policy 15.1, PAGE 15 is the policies page. POLICY 1 on PAGE 15, which is what I believe they are referring to, forbids only NONCONSENTUAL sexualized roleplay and cases of sexual harassment which is known as UNwanted sexualized things. None of the touchiness exhibited by my character at ANY time was EVER done without consent, had it from both the player AND character they’re referring to, who is a character with the proper mental faculties to give concent. I know who @Pavel is, based on his reactions here, and he’s WAS an admin on a different mud until he was fired and banned from it for exactly this kind of reaction and behavior. Ergo, why I say I will always be above him.

@Adora EXACTLY STUPIDASS, WHY DO YOU THINK YOU WULL NOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOUR SHIT, DUMBFUCK.

I do want to know who you think I am, but this level of discussion has been moved elsewhere.

@GF OR YOU COULD SHUT THE FUCK UP TROLL
