My partner has started BEP this week after a few months of thinking the orchiectomy had helped him kick TC in the butt. Even though it’s definitely not great news he’s been handling the idea of chemo rather well, all things considered. However, after every appointment (we are on day 3 of treatment) he’s particularly aggressive, critical, and ready to get into fights over the littlest things. Our relationship was experiencing some strain before we found out further treatment was necessary but we weren’t fighting super frequently. Now, I’m trying to not take anything personally and being as understanding as I can while providing the care and support he needs (and I want to give), but I’m feeling like my boundaries are being disrespected and a few fights have broken out as much as I’ve tried to not engage in one or diffuse the situation as best as possible. I’ve not acted perfectly in all of these moments but I’m only human and this is new to me too. I want to be there for him as much as I can be because I love the crap out of him but I don’t want to be the focus of his aggression either. Does anyone else feel prone to high emotions after treatment? Is it possibly a reaction to the steroids? Any advice to avoid the tension or diffuse situations that may be caused by the effects of treatment?
Just finished watching shell game again and I think the whole subplot around the zesty Italian sauce turning the family Italian might be my favourite B plot of the series. It makes absolutely no sense at all but I love it
I did it 4 times in under 24 hours
The question is in the title, but I will try to expand on what I mean.
But if you lived under the rock, Zesty has been recently forced to first delete, lock and then simply remove most things from his twitter account, due to him feeling burned out (also he got destroyed by a wave emoji, that's beside the point though). And a lot of people in there, have been saying that they are happy, due to Zesty having quite toxic behaviour. But then, there is a lot of folks (primarly his fans) defending him, even though the things he does really aren't that great.
Here are these things:- Transphobia (slurs towards trans people)- Racism (saying n-word)- Trash talking and hating on competitive players and people who are good at the game- Toxicity and shitty behaviour TOWARDS the mentioned good and competitive players- His idea that "You can say slurs and not be racist, transphobic etc."- Asking to ban people just because they are good (J_peg)
I probably missed a few, but point stands.
And these may not seem that big right? But the idea that people defend this behaviour, rather than just see what he does, because you know what his fans love to do? Switch it, and start saying "B-BUT WAMO BAD". Yes. Wamo is not the best TF2-ber around, he loves to create drama and he is a clickbaiter. But is that AS BAD as being a toxic asshat to people of other skill level and ignoring hateful stuff he and his fans say? (Like his server has only 1 rule, no cheating, which means slurs are thrown quite often there from my experience)
TL:DR Zesty's behaviour and things he does, are pretty shitty and just defending it blindly and saying "But Wamo bad" doesn't really do anything, other than make that look even worse.
Post-Production Edit: YES I GET IT. WAMO BAD. But that doesn't excuse Zesty's shitty behaviour. Two wrongs don't make a right ffs
