I get people to leave me alone by saying things like, “I’m hiding my face because I don’t want the government tracking my every move. Haven’t you noticed that there’s cameras everywhere?” They usually leave either because they’re the types to worry or they think I’m scary mad. It’s worked every time

Québec is one of the most beautiful provinces in the country. Its natural beauty, mountains, lakes, architecture, history, culture, food, music, farms, orchards…but my god it’s impossible to live there as an English-speaking immigrant that looks indigenous (because I am, just not Canadian).

Define “normally” please.

Have you looked at Waterllama?

They’re so beautiful. Thanks for brightening up my day.

Words are words and intentions don’t show on a page. What’s so hard about using the actual name of posts?

I was trying to bring awareness not force anyone into anything. You’ve no need to apologize or explain to me. I might seem like an outlier now but the discussion about this took place a year ago. A lot of people that opposed the word have left, which was probably wise.

Malice? You thought it necessary to add to the pile on, because?

I’m upset by the general pile on but don’t mean to direct it at you. I’m sorry if it came across that way. I’m copping it from all directions all because I queried the use of that word in a new apps name. I had thought to give them a heads up that it’s problematic, is all.

I see you’re a master of intelligent discourse. Congratulations.
