Chaotic Coffee Klatch (tea also available)

Sorry to hear that it was a tough weekend. Nonetheless I'm glad to see you made it through😁

I’m resilient 😁

sorry to read that :( 🥰 new week new chances ( for it to go whack again ;) )

Amen! And it will! 😂

Good morning...I dread getting out of bed on Mondays...well same dread as Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and fridays..but Mondays are the worst

I’m hoping this Monday treats you well, then 😘
 
Why is b) even an option? Ignored people don't disturb you, after all.
Is that how ignore works? They just don’t show up on the thread for that person? I haven’t used it. I might need to since I have seen people stand up against racism (yeah!) and then make statements about white people which by definition, is racist. Don’t judge me by the color of my skin, I guarantee, I don’t do that to anyone.

Is there a down side to ignoring?
 
maybe it's your friendship with Mo that keeps you from seeing the truth about his unwillingness to change and correct his behavior (where LS is and does) 🤷‍♀️
That's possible. But lol about LS.
sorry but that's dumb 🤷‍♀️ you keep (and always for good reasons - also very quickly) calling out people for even not-as-obvious racism towards bipoc people and for patriarchy-caused behavior (and i love you for that and hopefully have become a better person (if only a little bit) because of you) but why can't you see his disrupting behavior?
You are not comparing racism and the patriarchy to Mo's behavior?

When you choose to ignore somebody, you don't see their posts on the thread anymore. You can choose to see them if you need to, however other people can continue to engage with them, and that can make the conversation hard to follow. Upside troll be gone, downside only gone for you so it can be like reading a book with the occasional chapter missing
 
I’m not really in this convo, but I feel like I can say this here.

We are people. We come with flaws. Every single person has a different perspective.

No one should be forced to leave. If it’s too much, ignore is an option. There’s no shame in protecting your own sanity.

That being said, I don’t engage in a lot of the conversations that get inflammatory because it’s the same argument over and over. I’ve heard it my whole life. I’m choosing where I spend my energy. This isn’t where I want my energy to go.

I hope you’re all able to figure out what best serves you. I support each and every one of you ❤️

Have a wonderful day, guys. 😘
 
@Diosax which scenario would you prefer?
a) Mo leaves this thread and we keep having fun (he's already on ignore and it's not only Nat and i who've put him there)
or
b) Nat and aman and i and some others leave the thread?
Nobody should have to leave any thread. It is an open space for everybody. You read and interact the way YOU want to. It shouldn’t be about anybody else. Bambi and gga (and now cheeky) created this space for people to be able to talk about anything in a fun and silly way without derailing other threads because that is what was happening. There are always different conversations going on and people just join in with what they want to. That is what it is for. Skim the posts you aren’t interested in, don’t interact with the people you don’t like. Let everybody just do their thing and you do yours.

Its way too late (or early?) and I might be reading wrong but reverse racism isn't a thing.

And I'm pretty sure the people you are referring to is me. You can try out the ignore bottom on me if you'd like so you can see how it works.
