How to be an #ally to someone dealing with #PTSD

https://www.upworthy.com/ptsd-can-affect-anyone-here-s-how-you-can-help-hw
An estimated 8 percent of the population will experience #posttraumaticstressdisorder (PTSD) in their lifetime.

I am a #cis #male & a passive #voyeur of all things #naughty, #sexual, #sensual, #dark, #spooky, #cute & #sexy etc.
Being a #cismale I love #women of all ages, races and persuasions, I also have quite a thing for #transgender women and #femboys.
I like to watch #straight sex, #lesbian #sex, #trans sex, in fact just about any kind of #sex.
I like to think of myself as an #LGBTIQA+ #ally and this is my playroom...

Why should progressives accommodate conservatives' need to be socially accepted, when conservatives refuse to allow "others" to be socially accepted.

If the conservatives want people to be friendly with them, then they need to stop being so actively hostile to people.

@JuliusGoat does a much better job explaining this idea in this essay:

Web Trade-Offs Can Be Frustrating

The more structured and semantic you are in execution the better it is for accessibility, but also the easier it is for folks to scrape and rob you of your efforts.

When considering the efforts of others especially around #webdev markup execution and #ally, remember that besides DX we often have competing interests given the culture and characteristics of the web. This isn't an excuse, more of an observation and plea to employ less black and white thinking.

you might assume Discord user “Literally Hitler” with a profile pic of Hitler would be a bad guy, but wait! he put his pronouns in bio! #ally #solidarity

@stefanieschulte @mekkaokereke As a man in this society I’m constantly saddened when I see experiences like you described here. It’s never acceptable. And for my part, I will do everything in my power to educate my own son on why this is wrong. #ally #believewomen

A quotation from Bible:

«
Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three str…

Far right conservatives are so spiteful, evil and have forgotten what it means to be human.

Laura Ann Carleton was murdered all because she had a pride flag in her own store. These conservatives need to cut the bs and stop pretending to care about #FreedomOfSpeech. They don’t care about free speech, all they have is irrational and senseless hate

hey #ally #macDevs #macVoiceOver users... is there an easy way to show the context menu for a VO-selected item? All google is giving me is to use VO to move the actual mouse pointer, and then literally right-click, but it seems like there should be a keyboard-based way to do so?? (trying to test accessability of the contents of this context menu, but being unable to invoke it is... problematic!)

Dear #Straight people; If you —

#Vote in EVERY #election in your district EVERY time for EVERY office.

Check each candidate’s site beforehand to find the most / least #homophobic / #transphobic ones.

Vote for whoever has the BEST chance at defeating the most dangerous bigot(s) REGARDLESS of party / ideological purity.

— you’ll do more for the safety of local #LGBT people than most. It’s that simple, that difficult.

Wanna do more? Bonus #Ally Points. But this first, plz. thx.

"In the court of law and drop a DIME like Sprint do".

Lil'Kim is raunchy, uncompromising, and was the first big-name rapper to be an ally to queer people.

“I just feel like family when I’m performing for a mainly LGBTQ crowd,” the rap superstar said. “It just feels like I’m so at home and with family and they’re with me all the time, you know what I mean?”

Strong language from the start and throughout.
