I am deeply sorry about the abuse you experienced and think it’s unfair to paint an entire gender in that light. My mom was incredibly abusive and I would never blame all women for that, just her as an individual.
This was the right call. I’d never been there before and just checked out the announcement post and it’s full of hatred, insults and bile towards this decision. Their users are calling this a “far left instance that hates free speech run by politically correct pussies”. What a nasty community.
This is easier to digest and accept if you don’t live in one of the areas already impacted by climate change. When you are actually experiencing the effects the reality of it is in your face and hard to tune out.
OP, just do what you can on an individual level and try to relieve your anxiety. It will take major, massive change to offset the Holocene extinction we’re currently in, enjoy the life you have and are living currently.
As someone on the autism spectrum myself, we’re usually fairly open to whatever the facts are whether that disproves us or not. There’s a lot of overlap at times between narcissistic traits and autism, are you sure he just wasn’t a narcissist? I say that because refusing to accept the rationalization of what may be a bad idea just sounds dumb. (The bumper stickers made stand out to me too).
Alternatively he was just someone with autism who is narcissistic and dumb, who refused to accept any new information that countered what he had settled on.
Thank you, you as well! Do you have any suggestions or are there other interests taking up your time?
I’ve been a lifelong hockey fan and this is the final nail in the coffin for me for the NHL as a league. Between this, the Kyle Beach coverup, the spotty officiating, lack of concern for player safety, ads on jerseys and helmets, the moving ads on the board and non stop gambling promotions…I’ve had enough. It’s an amazing sport but an absolute embarrassment of a league.
Also the gambling ads that are everywhere, including on helmets and jerseys?
