    This brought up a memory:
    I was with my then girlfriend at a gynecologist as she was getting a UID put in. I sit in the waiting room just browsing my phone and out of nowhere I hear screaming and stuff getting thrown around. I couldn’t make out exactly where it came from so I of course got worried it might be my girlfriend (not that I had a reason to think it was her out of anyone else), but it’s obviously not like I could just go and open doors to look. After about a minute of hearing this, so much stuff thrown and broken, a girl comes out of a room bright red with anger and as she walks by me, who’s the only one in the waiting room, she says “I came here for things completely unrelated to my period and the doctor fucking asks about my fucking period like that’s everything women are, periods!” I really didn’t know how to respond so I just go “yeah, fuck 'em.” and she just looked at me with an oddly angry smirk then walked out.

    This is around the tenth time I’ve seen this exact image at the top of the front page (sorted by hot) here on lemmy the past year. Most of those have been from accounts that are less than 2 days old. This really makes me feel uneasy and worried about the state of things here. It’s one of the big reasons I left reddit and it’s scary to see that it can happen over and over with a such a comparatively small percentage of users.
















  • The tram I was on with my dad and little sister struck a woman, she had an umbrella open so she didn’t see the tram (it was a sunny summer day). It cracked her head open and I’ll never forget that sound. The driver panicked and only opened the front door of the tram, right where the woman was laying on the ground, so we were forced to walk out of the tram and jump over the pool of blood gushing from her head. My dad tried to make us not look but I saw the hole in her head, and her brain. I was 10 and my sister 8.
    She died on the way to the hospital.
    And I just realised I now live in the apartment building right by the tram tracks where it happened, haven’t thought about that memory for a long time.
