minus-squareSeagoon_@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·edit-211 months agoI read somewhere that negative events and words have 20 times the impact on our brain/emotions than positive events. So when shit happens to me I tell myself the people that did it are not that important. It’s hard and horrible tho. Big big hugs. We all know transphobes are sick incels and terfs I have no idea if they were terfs. I suspect that the intolerance was in part ethnicity based.
minus-squareDuenan@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoThere’s some truth in that. I’ve never forgotten certain things that has happened when I was bullied as a kid and it still stings and weighs me down. Positive events related to that subject haven’t stuck with me at all.
