Rants: Everyday Venting

[Alessia Starfurr]

wow that is horrible

[Nazieri]

Stupid **censor** retarded-ass neighbors make fun of my autistic brother when I'm not home.


You are thirty **censor** years old, grow the hell up. He excels in all of his schoolwork, he's very musically talented, why don't people ever give him a chance just because he's "different"? I'm the only one who looks out for him and I feel like shit because I can't do anything to stop it.


I've even tried talking to his teachers, who turned out to be not only disrespectful to him, but to me, my family background, and my ethnicity.


And yes, I WILL say retarded and I really don't care if I'm not being "politically correct". Retarded doesn't even mean "mentally challenged", it's just given that connotation.

Have you tried talking to the Dean/Principal about this? The school board? Not sure if there's anything they can do beyond telling the teachers to stop but it's worth a shot.. and it's good that they're notified of this behavior. Your brother is just like everyone else and like everyone else, he deserves to be treated with kindness and respect.

My goodness, that's horrible.

If I go to the schoolboard they'll just dismiss it as "kids being kids" or the teachers will completely deny it. They expect me to be groveling on the floor since they put him in regular classes after I begged for him not to be put in Special Ed.

[Cecilia Peromi]

What kind of autism does he have? I have Aspergers.

[Silaluk]

He has PDD-NOS and Savant syndrome.

[BennyJackdaw]

Stupid insomnia. I can't fall asleep no matter how hard I try. I have no idea how to fix this.

Also, Aspie right here too.

[HyenaKing]

Boy oh boy i've been doing school for about 12 hours straight and it **censor** hurts to think right now.

[Alessia Starfurr]

Suggestions: Play quite music, run a fan, think about furriness....

[Cecilia Peromi]

12 hours! Well, you're dedicated. I'll give you that.

[HyenaKing]

I have no other choice.

[HyenaKing]

One of my teachers decided to give us a ton of homework for us to make. It's going to take at least 5 whole hours to make it and we need to hand it in tomorrow, even though the next lesson is on Monday. It basically means I'd be busy with this from the moment I come home until I go to bed, with the only break I have being dinner. My expectations are that literally nobody in my class will have it finished in time since we also have other homework for tomorrow, which I thankfully have finished already. Yay...

Oh hey, welcome to my world.
I was quite literally doing that yesterday.

[Cecilia Peromi]

Kudos to your hard work Michen. You too Wrath.

[Rho'Syn Ilwynog]

As a war hammer 40k fan, I absolutely detest how much hate furries get on any of their forums. Like seriously, I'm here talking about orks and furries get brought up. So much rage >.<

Also, I really wish furries would clean up their act a bit in the fan art department. Looking for a good background for my computer is so hard because even with the "Google explicit results" filter on, there is still so much smut for searching Furry. *sigh*

[Styxx Von Doom]

Syn you have to also remember that not all of that is because of furries, I've actually heard of people letting out the smut before the regular stuff so they can get the extra hate from people. Its sad but true :\
