Disconcerted and scared.
My country's VP suffered an assassination attempt and I only
just found out - through an announcement that tomorrow is going to be a national holiday in condemnation of the attack, to boot.
Sometimes I'm glad I don't watch Argentinian news. Like her or not, this is just APPALLING. At this point I would be surprised if there were no street riots tomorrow and I'm staying home just in case, but I do hope the protests against the attack go smoothly. This
is worth going out to march on the streets.
I got called the n word today. And my art got insulted.
I'm upset about it.
The person said, "N word, what the PSYDUCK is that" I don't know why, but the n word triggers me and makes me really upset since I know it was a bad word used against black people it makes me upset. I know it's chronically online to get upset about something like that, but the n slur and r slur are just...really triggering for me.
Weirdly, their account name said Siorc in it, I wonder if they thought I was talking about them, but I wasn't it.
I don't know, I'm just feeling extremely hurt. This is a word I go out of my way to mute because I don't want to see it. Period.
Oh god, I'm sorry that happened to you. You have all the right to be upset about it, especially if it was directed towards you or your work. There's nothing "terminally online" about it, and this is coming from a person who used to be deep in
that scene. That person can take their slur and sod off.
