Thread, first steps to #StopTheHate: Imagine that you're in the presence of someone being microaggressive. A racist or ableist joke. A misogynist aside. "Kung flu." Practice responding by saying aloud:

"I'm not comfortable with that."
or
"That makes me uncomfortable."
1/10
Practice regularly--it takes just a few seconds a few times a day--so it stays front of mind. The window to USE that line is a small one: You have to say it as soon as you hear the unfunny joke, the semi-veiled comment. Practice=developing readiness. 2/10
When the moment comes IRL, your heart might begin pounding. You might sweat or tremble. *It will not be easy.*

Stay strong: Try to keep in mind that however uneasy you're feeling, it's not anywhere close to the distress of the person at whom the microaggression is directed. 3/10

This is where “kung flu” leads. You think it’s a joke and that we shouldn’t be so serious about it. But then there are those who latch onto it with hatred and xenophobia and use it to fuel their fear and contempt until it explodes into heinous acts. This is what happens when 1/
we try to break the oneness into separate parts and decide to categorize and rank the parts as good and bad, better or worse, belonging or not belonging. What would it cost you to decide we are all one family? But really? What is lost by transforming contempt to acceptance? 2/
It’s time to look within and ask yourself, do I want to be at peace? Can I operate from love? Will I stand with my human family and embody the end of hate? You’re invited to the family gathering. Please join us. -Shannon Lee

Please support @POTUS's nomination of @Sagebrush_Rebel Wm Perry Pendley. Here's my tweet to him. He's a good man, and a very good man for the top job at BLM.

Left-wing pseudo-environmentalists are a hateful lot. For proof, just look at all their vicious comments in that thread. #StopTheHate
It's not just Wm Perry Pendley and Jennifer Fielder who those left-wing pseudo-environmentalists hate. A lot of them are hard-core misanthropes, who hate almost everyone.

@Sagebrush_Rebel If we want land to be managed well, we to get it out of the hands of the federal government. Here's a very instructive lecture, by Montana State Senator Jennifer Fielder, who is also CEO of the American Lands Council (speaking last year at ICCC13):

~ twice social media au~
¦ sanayeon au¦
Where Sana fools around too much to be considered healthy, Nayeon is a hopeless romantic (even tho she won't admit it), and Dahyun is full of terrible ideas.
- first time doing something like this so yeah...
- english is not my first language
- i'm basically doing this to entertain the five friends that i have but if you accidentally find this please give it a shot lol
a few informations i think you should know:
- nayeon, jeong, jihyo, mina, sana, momo and dahyun went to the same school.
- sana and momo were the inseparable duo. na, jeong, ji, mi were the inseparable group. they weren't close, but dahyun was friends with all of them.

The @YRDSB sent me an invite to @ebalgord's #SayNoToHate event. The AV presentation is almost ready.
The @CBC did an interview with @ebalgord before the doors opened.
At least six @YRP uniformed officers are at the @YRDSB Newmarket High School for the #SayNoToHate event. Sounds like extra paid duty.
