Not spending time with children because mainstream adults are insane? That is letting the bastards win.
Their own jokes and treatment of adults is hurtful. I feel hurt and excluded often times, especially when they say older people are 'uncs' or when they tell old people to go away.
As I said on BL12, it's really a matter of how much effort you put in.FairBlueLove wrote: Wed Nov 05, 2025 9:46 pm While it might be difficult to put it in practice for a series of reasons, I feel that's the most natural, sane, and powerful form of activism.

Am I not simply a human being just like you? But out of your norm.

One of my students again asked to visit my place, and this time I gave him a yes conditional on his parents agreeing.
I hope they say yes too!

That's wonderful. A fine first step towards possibly letting a YF into your heart. Hope it turns out well.BLueRibbon wrote: Fri Nov 07, 2025 9:02 am One of my students again asked to visit my place, and this time I gave him a yes conditional on his parents agreeing.

The boy didn't end up visiting today, but I did go to the playground at work. Lots of boys of various ages wanted to play with me; we ended up doing sports for quite a while.
Hopefully the boy who was going to visit my place had to go to Grandma's, or something like that. I'll find out more next week.
I'm determined to make some new YFs!

The same boy told me he still wants to visit and has his mother's permission.
However, he seems to want to bring half of the boys in his class.
I told him he can bring a small number of friends, who also need their parents' permission.
Let's see what happens...
