We were polyamorous, had spent 8 years together, and then her other (new) partner decided she didn’t like me. So she put a wedge into our relationship by breaking the trust down between me and my partner, framing me as abusive, and eventually my partner abandoned me after the trust was gone.

The other gal turned everything I did into some manipulative scheme or way to control my partners. For example, the fact that I couldn’t suddenly drop $2k on a wisdom tooth removal for her became “financial abuse and control”.

I’m going to be angry about it for the rest of my life, I think.

I have, but it’s because I’m trans and I lived in a bad place for trans people.

This, why would a given group of protestors all open carry? I’d expect a mass of conceal-carried weapons, though.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome - my body has a bad recipe for collagen so all my tissue is too soft, I get injured very easily and I had arthritis before 30.

I’ve said both. I’m a professional pentester / red teamer, and yeah, we send each other “I’m in” memes when we pop a box.
