I’m glad this tweet invoked conversation. I’m so sorry it offended some. I see you and hear you. But just a reminder, empathy is not a bad thing. Nuance is important and literal interpretation is not always intended. And I can identify with and not identify as. Both are powerful.

I’m confident that there are better ways to show solidarity than to claim identities that do not belong to you .

Supporting trans people, people of color, immigrants, lesbians, gay men, and disabled people is all well and good. Claiming to BE them just because you “love” them is just sort of asinine and perverts the idea of being an ally. I support disabled people. Doesn’t mean I’m disabled
-
And to say that I am disabled in ANY way is a lie and entirely unhelpful to the people you claim to support. This isn’t St. Paddy’s day where “everyone’s Irish for a day!” This is real world shit. So perhaps you should choose a more tactful way to be supportive. This is repugnant

No he isn't. People ha e lost the poetry in their lives and take everything litterally.
-
Damn it just realized I spelled literally wrong.
-
Considering I write poetry (and can construct a sentence), no. My problem isn’t that I took her literally. I know she wasn’t being literal. But her claims are still absurd, as is her justification of them.

I like her but she gets too much dip on her chip sometimes.

I literally said that out loud when I read her tweet. Way too much dip on her chip.
