Wow, what a racist homophobic asshole. We should cast you out immediately.

Millipedist!

Don't tell me I need to let sea cucumbers into my shirt. The discussion featured domesticated (that is, PET) mammals. Does nobody else see how silly it is to be "traumatized" by a pet when you already like and have posted pics of yourself holding cats and dogs

The millipede wouldn't get any kind of maternal benefit from it so it's fair. It would bother me too. Rats are diferent. That is why that rat ran into the shirt. They do that when they're scared. For comfort. To say that is "traumatizing" is stupid

there are people who are scared of dogs. it's not the same as being racist

If you wouldn't let that thing slither around inside your rectum, you are a xenophobic misogynist.

[FlamingGlobes]

Guys, check out my nails, I just painted 'em

[ohnoitsbonnie]

Yeah because of culture or inexperience. I'm still hesistant around my family's rabbit but that is because I don't know them very well. It's not "traumatizing" and I know better to just roll with the discrimination

[FlamingGlobes]

Suddenly I have millipede envy

[ohnoitsbonnie]

I think all these arguements for speciesism can also be applied to racism. It is still arbitrary and ignorant discrimination.

Even *if* what you were arguing is true, don't you think it's better to express tolerance for those with opposing views and at least try educate them in hopes that they change their mind than to just rip somebody's head off and vomit down their throat because they said they wouldn't like a rat down their shirt?

[ohnoitsbonnie]

Also re: private messages and flaming guy. Did I send you any? Post them. Did you send me any? I had to delete a lot recently so I don't have any evidence that we've had private correspondence

No. Maybe irl. But deal with it Labelle. Everyone deal with it

[ohnoitsbonnie]

Even if discrimination were true, lol

I don't pretend to be a good person. I am both good and bad. I just want to be me when I can

Wasn't someone on your ass about quitting the board recently? Don't do the same intolerant junk to me

Yes, when you first started posting here again. You said we are board enemies and posted your stupid emo meme and since then you've been trolling me with neg reps on a regular basis for nothing. Clearly trying to get a rise out of me.

It's not that I'm bothered by the neg repping, but the passive aggressiveness gets to me. You play all cute and innocent out front, but you're a manipulative drama queen when no one is looking.

No? If they were, I didn't see it. I don't post here every hour of every day and look in every single thread like you do, so I very well could have missed it.

Also, unlike you, I am not personally invested in this board. If the majority decided they didn't want me here, I would quietly and gladly leave.

I posted a pic with a rat before. I have nothing against rats.
However I would find one running inside my shirt upsetting, it's my body and my boundaries.
If you're so preachy about intolerance you should respect that, it would only be decent.

[ohnoitsbonnie]

Keep talking about rep and get your paddlins

You have something against rats if you wouldn't give the same consideration as you would another domesticated mammal to a rat. You contradicted yourself

I didn't say you should quit. I said you should step away for a bit. You are here all the time. I check in maybe 3-4 times a week and every time I do, the board is flooded with your posts. It's clearly taking a toll on your mental health to the point where you bite somebody's head off for no reason and accuse them of being a racist. Like, come the fuck on. Re-read that shit. Tell me I'm wrong, tell me you weren't out of line.

Also, didn't you have some errands you needed to be doing?

Where did I say I want other animals running inside my shirt? I don't.
