  • I like some of the other suggestions better than this but if you’ve already tried communicating about it and other things haven’t worked, I wonder if for some cases you could convince him to take a video or a picture. Like, if it’s a cool thing he wants you to see instead of interrupting you record it and share it when you’re available instead of right now, interrupting you. Again, I think the other proposals are better but I wonder… if you’re right about the motivation at least sometimes being just wanting to share something it might be worth attempting.


  • This sounds like obvious sealioning but I’ve got a minute so I’ll take the bait. If everyone applies that mentality it will almost always lead to the tyranny of the majority. What will cause a group that has even a slim majority to understand and take into account the needs of the minority. How will the majority even know there is a problem if the minority doesn’t (as you say) “complain to everyone else”. Just like the poster depicted says “so what” about it being gay being a choice, I don’t care whether people define that stance as “homophobia”. I do care that they understand why they shouldn’t do it.
