Ok here's the thing. We HAVE looked to you for help in the past. You turned away or told us we were being too sensitive or possibly should talk to someone else instead. Or you've said "trust us, we are listening." And then you name us to others. Or tell us we're not welcome.

We see you, pivoting. We see you being your best selves when it's convenient.

We see you thinking, though, whether to take the risk when it isn't.

And we do not trust you. NOT ONE SINGLE BIT.

It has been a really bad week and a really bad year and a bad bad bad long stretch before that but I am sick of the emotional hair shirts you are wearing because you get to go back to your seats and feel good about yourselves.

and the people you leave in your wake, you consider them broken.

YOU HELPED.

So you know what I’m going to do now? I’m going to go cook and be with my family and forget about your performative bs for a while. Be better when I get back.
