   I’m sorry I came in here and expressed my feelings about the overall vibe I’m experiencing while using this app. I’m sorry I’m not smart enough to intricately describe the cold feeling it exudes. I’m sorry I don’t have goddamn sources to WHAT I PERSONALLY FEEL AS A BLACK WOMAN ON THIS APP. “Sources”.. wtf? I’M THE SOURCE. And I’m sorry I’ve been asking things like why is this or why is that. Like..Who tf do I think I am, right? How dare me!

     @ThisPlaceAgain People love to rip on Clippy, but sometimes I think MS was on the right track. We could use that here.

     @ThisPlaceAgain I'm so sorry 😟 I hate that this place makes people I want to follow and hear from feel unwelcome. I really don't understand the lack of empathy, sympathy, fucking common courtesy, that people show towards people who are feeling marginalized on here.

     Weird how all the LGBT* people I follow don't seem to have this problem, it's only a certain type of person, hmm, let me see if I can find a pattern here, which kind of people feel unwelcome and are getting harassed, hmm, what a mystery 😡🌋

     FWIW I'm glad you're here and I wish I could read more of your posting.
