Discomfort is not harm. Internalize that.
Discomfort is not harm, and if you're made uncomfortable by the work of a total stranger who does not know you exist, you can just process on your own and move on. You do not need to make it anyone's "fault" and no one needs to be "held accountable" for it.

If you dislike something or it makes you uncomfortable, that’s okay! But you don’t need to let the creator know. You don’t need to let anyone know, honestly. You can just ignore it and move on with your life. Fandom is about enjoying the things you like, not bashing the things you hate.
I woke up in the night thinking about this & will forget if I don't wing it into the universe right now, so...
what are some etiquette tips you'd give to someone new to fandom spaces?

The main CEO adjuster thought I keep having is that more than anything the shooter did, it’s the reaction from people in power that’s turning him into a folk hero and radicalizing people.
The second is that prison is only going to radicalize him, and likely others, further.

Please learn to advocate yourself and loved ones when they are hospitalized. If you don’t understand your options please request an advocate. Don’t make a decision until you understand the implications.

Including you; don’t let you tell yourself any differently either. Repeat this reminder to yourself in the mirror when you try to gaslight yourself into disregarding the truth.
If you need a reminder, here it is:
You are important. You belong. You make a difference in everyone’s lives you touch.
And no one EVER has the right to tell you any different!

What's an opinion you have that would make a bunch of people angry?
Write it down in a notebook called, "Why would I want to make a bunch of people angry right now?" and then close that notebook and have some tea.

Quick reminder, if you believe in infinite parallel universes, there’s literally millions of instances where the CEO lived long enough to get to hospital only to die as a direct result of the delay of finding out if his insurance was invalid or not.

I can only tolerate it from my sister; everyone else gets ‘No really, you don’t want me to go see a medium with you’ energy 🙃
One thing about me is that I do absolutely suck at listening to stories about weird, apparently paranormal things that happened to you.
100% intolerable “that was definitely a drone” and “you can stop worrying about your past lives because they don’t exist” shit.
