Somewhat relevant story; I found a laminated flyer on my jog today. The first half of it was talking about child trafficking in Columbia, then following on with "but it's not just gangs!" before linking underage sex trafficking and paedophilia with LGBT and drag, before moving on to a Lenin quote about owning a child's life, finishing off with "Hitler agreed with Lenin!". The second half was about finding God and salvation and all that.
I can only imagine if someone who was gay or trans finding that and reading it - how upsetting that must be to read a random bit of sheet telling them they're a nazi paedophile. Picked up every one along my route and binned them, I should've taken a photo of it. How and why should anyone tolerate that?? Surely that's hate speech, if I find them placed around again I'm reporting it to the police. None of that shit in my area please.
Yep. I went to a charity sponsored human trafficking speaker who blew her credibility by having an SRA is real! bit. I suggested to my wife (who has business ties with the organization) that they might want to edit that part a bit.
Or that your parents forced you into it. Like yes, my mother who refuses to acknowledge that I came out (as in she literally pretends that me coming out never happened) totally forced me to be trans. And my father who tried to convince me to "just be gay" totally forced me to be trans. Even though I can't be gay because being gay would require being attracted to anyone.
I always say that he was behind the couch the whole time, but he may have been there a bit too long. It really showed his commitment to hide and seek, or it may have been a heart attack. Either way, I don't like to talk about it.
Just had a customer give me a Jeebus spiel yesterday. It was super uncomfortable, but on the plus side he gave me a $20 tip (I'm not in a position that is usually tipped).
