A Fox's Venting Burrow

I'm feeling incredibly stressed out and un-hopeful for the future

Nonbinary is way overused.

The world is so inaccessible when you don't come from wealth. You can't afford the training courses that would give you an upper-hand when it comes to school and job applications, you can't afford to volunteer which would also make you preferrable over others...you just don't get access to all the benefits others can have, even though you could objectively be as capable or even moreso, but no one will give you the chance because you never had access to the supports that others did that makes them seem better on paper. It seems like a never-ending cycle. Those with wealth can reap the benefits offered to them, and they are more likely to succeed, and pass that on to their children, while those in poverty have to work so much harder for not as much, and can't pass any benefits on to their children...so few are able to break out of this cycle because so much is stacked against those without wealth!

I don't get randomly blocked by listeners very often but boy is it awful :/ happy to see their account got swiftly removed afterwards, because they were awful anyways!

Honestly, the 7cups community email & the ticket system is a joke. I always get back the most unhelpful and often unrelated responses, it never goes anywhere, it's such a waste of time but also seems like the only avenue to go sometimes?

Any time I send in a ticket I include all the info they ask for, days later get a reply asking for the info that I already shared so I literally copy-paste my original message, then usually never hear again.

When I email the community email, I've gotten responses along the lines of "no, I don't think the problem is what you think it is" (it definitely is, eg duplicate accounts), completely misreading the issue and thinking I'm reporting myself??, or "thanks for letting us know!" with nothing ever happening or any real resolution. How is this even allowed...if the email box at my work was handled like that, people would be very swiftly fired!

Dear 7cups, hire me to take care of your emails, I know how to actually read and give a proper response

Guess what? Another friend engaged! 😒😞

What a horrible invasion of privacy, I absolutely hate him!!! I'm so lucky that family is here so he couldn't hurt me or say too much, wow how scary would it have been if we were alone

Trauma is the new buzz word. People are throwing it around way too much and saying everything is trauma or a trauma response. Trauma is common but social media is way overusing and misusing it, so annoying to see a million posts saying "that's actually a trauma response" or "I thought this was normal/a part of my personality/whatever super average thing, but I found out it was a trauma response :O". Not every minor inconvenience that happened in your childhood is trauma 🙄 Not everything that is a response to trauma in one person means if you do it too, you also had trauma and it's solely/always a trauma response.

The annoying part of teens being so dumb is when they truly believe they aren't dumb and actually think they're mature 😂 you're a child. At least acknowledge that

I genuinely don't understand how he can go from such intense rage and abuse to just joking and laughing with his friends... as if all the things he just did to me were nothing to him... while I'm left full of fear for hours... how can someone be like this...
