Call me Lenny/Leni

It's nice to meet all you. I am she/her, can speak Toki Pona and English (non-natively), and locatable on Reddit as MozartWasARed. The links at https://discord.gg/sEuSSDz6TQ and https://www.deviantart.com/triagonal/art/My-copyright-policy-and-the-impact-it-extends-into-906668443 are pertinent to me.

    It's pedantic, but I dislike this phrase a lot. It applies shame of all things to whatever motives someone might have to something. It's one of those "it sounds good to people who aren't going through those things, let's use it on this person who is thinking about the time her kids were taken from her" kinds of things. I for one am analytical about all of my feelings, I don't feel sentiments just for their own sake. Or I did, back before I had anhedonia (which might explain how I personally am doing with this issue, though ironically, some of the same people who used to say we should be more passive now say I don't feel as much as I should). I'm not some willy-nilly revenge seeker, but I don't know how someone could say I don't have any reason to proceed with caution around those who I might envision as still being a potential neglector to me. Though I can attest many people like us find solace in making friends with the friends of the people who wronged said people, as it's said to create a sanction-like effect.




  • I can't imagine why anyone should stop you from going the places you want to go for advice. I know Lemmy frowns upon even Reddit chain linking, but don't factor that in too much, such things aren't even against Lemmy rules. Keep us updated too if you may, we're sorry this is an issue in your hospital.













  • Not in the UK itself (hence I distinguish them with "mainlanders"), just someone who has lived a commonwealth/territorial upbringing and has moved around a few times. The debate with said mainlanders sticks out because people within the physical UK differ largely in how they say things, and when you emulate them and fail from the perspective of someone from a lesser part of the anglosphere, you can't make the case as well that it's just a matter of different equally valid uses for the same vocabulary.
