@typhlosion <3
goodnight, and thanks for the company when I needed it most
@cigazze "a cutoff where you had to go to the toot's page"
I've gotta bring up monologuing again, don't I?

@flitterbatflutterbat no worries at all re: mentioning me
I hope things get better too, seeing everyone be so supportive has helped me feel a lot better.
It hit me doubly hard because, well... Xkeeper's my roommate, for one, and it happened right when I had already been feeling like I couldn't open up to people, and just really hard reinforced that feeling, for two.
words have power.
think about what you're going to say. think about what you're doing, and the effects it will have.
don't be afraid to escalate if you must. but... to immediately jump to maximum force removes the option of descalating.
we're all human.
i love you all <3
can I say
i was really worried about what happened today, about how all the people i'd trusted, followed were going to agree with the people that tore down xkeeper, i was about ready to hide
instead i've seen unanimous support for them and despising what happened to them and it just threw me for a massive loop and
i'm actually crying now
ah yes
faux woke assholes shitting on marginalized people
i hope you rot, you petty shitbags
it's been said by more eloquent people even here on mastodon, even RECENTLY
but twisting the language and ideals developed to protect and empower the disadvantaged to attack them?
despicable
@zerojay nah, I'm self-hosted too. it just means I need to reconsider the people I follow and trust, really.
@zerojay because just like usual I feel that if I share anything at all, there will be *someone* who will disagree and react with explosive vitriol.
see also: what happened to Xkeeper today. (you'll have to look them up and talk elsewhere because they deleted their account due to what happened)
@KitRedgrave thank you <3
i don't even know how to put my feelings into words properly right now, just frustrated and shit watching this happen literally right next to me
@KitRedgrave hey, I normally give the hugs, but can I request one this time?
@xkeeper fucking sucks though, doesn't it?
let your guard down for a second, someone pounces with a barrel of vitriol
@xkeeper I mean I wouldn't personally delete since that would give a "success" sort of feeling to the exact people that don't need it in this case, but I have a kinda rebellious streak about me (maybe from @KitRedgrave )
ha. haha. hahahaha...
this is nothing but another fucking twitter.
i'm right back to being too scared to share my real feelings.
nothing has fucking changed.
@typhlosion all Pokémon instances need more sylveons

@vahnj I am happy to have played a minor part in this
@Eidolon the reply icon is different if a post is part of a thread (like this one)
