The local Chinese restaurant is playing bops - I’m Good (Blue), Willow, Hold Me Closer, and Break My Soul so far.
I will be coming back!
I will be coming back!
Queers who hate trans people are class traitors, quite frankly. Bitter and busted and have fooled themselves into a superiority complex. The straights won’t like you more, precious.It saddens, sickens and frankly scares me how some people out there can wilfully and happily be ignorant and antagonistic towards other people within our own community that is still marginalised and hated.
When I came out here, the love and safety I felt from members here gave me such a boost in a way that I wish was felt in other areas online and in my real life.
The forum still is a fun place to do all that stuff. People just have (rightly) less tolerance for bullshit right now and if you're going to post something that's misogynistic, racist, transphobic etc people aren't going to stand by and let it happen which is what happened a few pages ago on here.but PJ used to be a fun place to come to discover and chat about pop music, now you really have to take a deep breath before reading, let alone commenting.
I assume this is about me, and this brief interaction in the Sam Smith thread:This forum in incredibly frustrating at times, people are so quick to attack, everything is a 'take' and there's little in the way of decency & respect. I guess this true of most online discourse, but PJ used to be a fun place to come to discover and chat about pop music, now you really have to take a deep breath before reading, let alone commenting.
wow Sam & Kim really do provoke strong (like really strong) reactions in people.
Like, I'm sorry if that came across disrespectful, but it absolutely was a shit take. The vast, vast majority of the reactions were indeed about the song, and not about the people involved in recording & releasing it.This is a shit take, because the reactions have been overwhelmingly about the song, and not Sam/Kim.
nonsense going on in the Kylie thread
Imagine waking up in the morning to investigate a cartoon alien mascot’s genitals and still having the gall to say it’s the people who respect trans people/are trans are the ones in a cult…
