💔 oh. that makes perfect sense. I'm sorry.
you deserve help and support just as much as anyone else, and I hope you can find a way to feel safe enough to accept it
it sounds like you've got good instincts and a support system in case things go south at all, in which case, I'm wondering why you're hesitating?!?! this sounds fuckin amazing
I used to be very confident in this too, but every now and then, I look at /r/Ohio, and there have been a few threads of libs saying they've gotten guns and been training with them since Jan 6 because they're worried about "what the trumpers will do when he loses again"
and probably most of them are full of shit, but idk how confident I am that all of them are
okay, so let's run through what the possible scenarios could be here, so you can figure out how you feel about them and how you would deal with them
everybody help, I won't think of everything
- he's exactly what he claims to be
- he's a serial killer and you're in danger
- he is mostly what he seems but also very lonely and maybe a little weird and has a hard time making friends except in this way
- he is looking to trap a slave
- he is running a cult
- he is part of a cult
as I'm typing them, the third one seems the most likely to me – and I bet this strategy tends to backfire a little, because it can make for an awkward beginning to a friendship when there's so much inequity from the jump. it can be hard to recover from that, but finding a way to make the aid mutual really helps, so if that is the situation, just seeing the act of friendship as a gift you're giving in return might be helpful.
if I had more money, I would be trying to take people in constantly, so I've been more trusting of these kinds of situations than I ought to be and gotten into trouble. but I am that kind of person, and I know there are others, and some of them probably have money. so maybe it's legit.
Can I get fucked over by accepting this dude's help?
well, I've learned the hard way that ~~sometimes~~ often people who are offering to help are hoping to get a little something in return. sometimes it's just the good feeling of helping, sometimes it's just your friendship, but sometimes ... 😐
what does he want from you? how certain can you be that whatever answer(s) he gives are accurate and complete?
it can be a risky situation to put all your eggs into someone else's cushy basket. do you have any local-enough sober/in-recovery friends you could crash with if it turns out he's looking for sexual favors or a virtual slave?
omg, it really is gonna be 269 to 269, isn't it 😂
this is going to be so fucking funny, except for the risk of violence
do we think the libs will Rise Up if the tiebreaker goes to Trump, or will the MIC prevent his winning a tiebreak, or will they just work with him again because he was tolerable before, or what
fuckin incredible
his evil smirk reminds me of Weyoun from DS9
