The unofficial bad day thread.

Yeah, the Trulicity my doc put me on a number of months ago is about 600 bucks for a month's supply, but I have medicare and medicaid, so it only costs me about ten or twenty bucks, I think. But i didn't get that through Obamacare, I got it because of my disability back in 2006. Mark's been trying to get on the exchange for awhile, but it is a nightmare to try in Texas, at least for him so far.

It's been over a year and I still catch myself referring to Dad in present tense.

[LadyObvious23]

*hugs* It gets...sort of easier. I used to do that for my baby brother.

Caitlyn Jenner won Woman of the Year. There is transphobia everywhere.

Had to put my grandma's dog down last night. She was bleeding into her stomach, probably cancer. She was a good dog, so I feel bad for her, but I think I feel even worse for my Mammaw. She's a very sensitive person, so she's... not taking it well.

Being deliberately misgendered and told that I'm a man http://candicomics.com/forum/viewtopic. ... 7&start=90 like shut up.

Sorry to read that, Val.

I’m not sure it would be better if dogs lived longer than people :/ .

I got banned from the fucking Menage a 3 forum for hate speech. And I didn't fucking make one. But I'm going out on a limb here and saying that the Friendzone doesn't exist somehow is one. But whatever.

[brasca]

You weren't banned for denying the existence of the "friendzone." Saying things like "fucking straight ass white males," however, is a form of hate speech which is why you are banned from the Pixie Trix board.

It's too bad since Sticky Dilly Buns introduced an intersex character and Dillon's less than enlightened opinion of Angel's gender fluidity would have definitely sparked some lively discussion.

[LadyObvious23]

Except WOW I WAS DESCRIBING A DEMOGRAPHIC FOR WHICH GAMES HAVE BEEN HEAVILY PANDERED TO. AS WELL AS THE GENERAL GROUP THAT USES THE TERM "FRIENDZONE" AND THINK IT'S REAL. IT IS NOT HATE SPEECH. BUT CALLING ME A TROLL AND NASTY ABLEIST SLURS IS SOMEHOW FINE. ALONG WITH OBJECTIFYING WOMEN IN ANY FORM OF MEDIA. BUT WHATEVER.


AND THE WAY THE INTERSEX CHARACTER WAS INTRODUCED WAS TRANSPHOBIC AS FUCK LIKE DILLON IS.

[brasca]

Well if you weren't banned for overreacting about social interaction and friendship then you probably would be for comments related to that strip. Most people myself included think Dillon is being insensitive, but we can comment calmly and maturely about it.

[LadyObvious23]

He was being TRANSPHOBIC. Not insensitive. TRANSPHOBIC. Blatantly such.

Pointing out something is sexist isn't an overreaction. -____- So I guess ableist slurs aren't? Or sexist shit isn't either? Or going out of their way to call me nasty slurs and such?

[brasca]

I think you have Angel mistaken with Ramona. Angel is gender fluid and identifies as a male most of the time and Dillon is being insensitive about that. Ramona, however, just revealed she is intersex and Dillon never criticized her for that.
