It's a trigger-fest in here tonight.
Happy fuckin Friday.

@stueytheround
Sorry Stuey. 💜 I wish I could get the whole world to just lighten up.

@janallmac
I'm fed up with it Jan.
I use the tools liberally and it makes fuck all difference. If I block everyone who does it I'll have about three friends left.
It's another reason I'm considering leaving.

@stueytheround
Oh I hope you don't do that.

I do have some people blocked. I may be missing some stuff. Is there a specific topic that's grating on you right now? Would anything help?

@janallmac
Oh it's all politics politics politics, hate hate hate here a lot of the time and *nobody* uses keywords or hashtags.
Often it's just memes with no description.
The *only* way to avoid it is to mute or block the people doing it and I would literally end up with nobody to talk to here.

It's frustrating, triggering and to be quite honest, BORING!

What's there to stay for, *really*?

@stueytheround @janallmac
Dude I was just saying ignore it and take a breath would work for you but I know how you take things to heart. You're awesome and I would terribly miss seeing your posts. 💙🖖

@FireMonkey Well maybe if folk used the tools which *enable* me to use mine, I might have something positive to say.
But they don't.
In fact they very often deliberately avoid using words which are commonly filtered to ensure their hate filled shite is spewed into as many timelines as possible.

Oh but they're only hating on the "bad guys". So what? Hate is hate.

We cannot force people to use the hashtags, only recommend, and the only defense is to scroll on. Don't focus on or obsess. Just scroll on. It's really the only advice I can offer. Use a mental filter, it's much more flexible and effective than using the analog ones. ✌️&💙 my friend.
