I wasn't speaking to GBCN the collective. I was thinking a couple of them in particular--like Rora--have a some cunty history. I need to post stalk Rora. I saw that TooShort and CapsCapsCaps have mentioned the Minnie. Caps is amazing. I know her from elsewhere pre-gbcn and she’s the tits.

yeah...weren't you run off O12 under a different SN after receive a flaming? not under that SN or this current one?
I did have a different screen name with my first BMB which was O12. It was pointed out to me that using personal information was not the most internet savvy thing to do. Also, yes I didn't have the most successful time posting with my first BMB. Huh. News to me! Who were you?

This Bitch. I was not accusing you, I was providing you the context of the discussion. But, for what it's worth-no one was saying you mailed a bag of dicks. But the point was that you made some racist (they were not ignorant) comments. Yes, you apologized but then there has been nothing brought up by the collective since then. But here we are trying to burn Ripper at the stake for her comments and watermelon avatar. Huh. So continuing to bring up every person who has ever made a misstep for the end of time seems legit? So quick to throw down the “racist” gauntlet card but every self-congratulatory self proclaimed Woke AF white woman here should remember we ALL have a lot to learn from the WOC here. Are we willing to acknowledge our missteps? Are we willing to commit to doing & being better about it? In my case yes, I am. What else would you like to hash out here? Girl

Being defensive about an argument you got into where you were in the wrong less than a month ago isn't a great look.
Good lord.
And fuck needing to learn things from WOC. I mean, I'm thankful that I have WOC here and that helps me learn, but white people need to get out and learn how not to be white assholes on their own, with their own tools, with their own time, with their own research, with their own contemplation.
It's white people work that needs to happen.

Not sure what you plan on learning when you can't even call what your past actions as racist. "Admittedly ignorant" seems like a convenient way to dance around what you said which was racist.

If I never hear the words "race" and "card" used together again, it will be too soon.

Bitch, I don't fuck with you. Why don't you answer the question upthread and address them instead of cherry picking.

I would presume that if I had a business account of planner shit I would t be posting pics from my mother’s birthday, as I did on my personal account. At the very basis of this.. I would presume that if one posts pictures of their mother's birthday that there isn't anything in the picture that is overly sensitive and or personal.
Planner people do post more than just planner shit.

I don't think racist needs to be in quotes, since that implies things weren't really racist or racially motivated. It is condescending.

Why are, like, 15 pages missing from this thread? There's a pinned post at the top about ProBoards being weird. Or like 5 more people deactivated, that's also always a possibility.

A business account and a personal instagram account are not equal at all. Presumably the business account is set to public, the personal is set to private. And like @gentleapricot said, I'm not posting pictures of my kids to the business account. But also, for me, Instagram is my most personal social media. I use it as the baby books that I'm too lazy to make in real life. So it's truly mostly for me, my kids to look at in the future and my family. The friends that I have on that account I would be comfortable having to my actual house. So it's like the most private of lines for me, hence the excessive pearl clutching when these "LETS ALL BE FRIENDS" nets go out. So to my point, you choose to have IG your most personal social media. You are choosing to use it as the baby books. That was your choice.
You can choose to share as much or as little as you want to.
And I was clear, I don't have a problem with the pearl clutching overall it's the constant small slides thrown here and there like those that chose differently are in some way unknowing and naïve.

Jesus I am not going around here arguing anything with anyone. I posted my fucking feelings as has everyone else. I am not following anyone around posting daily about the SM thing. At all.

The learn from woc thing is bothering me. Like they're not here to be our teachers, they're here to be our friends.
Sure we can learn something if they so choose to point out how someone or something is fucked up but I don't want to make anybody feel as though their sole purpose here is to correct and enlighten others.
Damn that would be exhausting.
Please keep in mind that what you are learning they are living and sometimes just as much as this is my escape from real life bs, I'm sure everyone else wants to escape here as well, not have to teach every fucking second shit we should be striving to learn and lookout for on our own.
