a guy said that i made him feel bad by making a joke about the voltron fandom
even though i didn’t know he had a trauma associated with that show he kept telling everyone he knew about how awful i made him feel and and how he just wanted to smash his head in with a hammer and felt terrible about it for weeks and honestly? at this point i hope he f****** does it.

how do you have trauma associated with a show lmfao
man, i get this shit about a certain game that fucks me up, but going around making people feel like shit for unknowingly triggering you is not okay. trauma’s a bitch, but that’s no excuse to fuck with and emotionally manipulate the people around you. he needs to either try and talk to someone who may understand about his trauma (because i think i may understand why he’s feeling this way, and i have the same exact thing going on for me if that’s the case), or try and help himself by slowly attempting to overcome whatever obstacle he’s bound by on his own.
for me, it’s been fucking _years_ and i still can’t even go to conventions like i want to because i’m so afraid. hell, i can’t even _look at pictures_ of conventions without being terrified that i’m going to see something related to it because it’s that damn popular within people with shared interests. however, i’m doing my absolute best that i can to overcome it (i still haven’t taken down a poster in my room that makes me really uncomfortable because i need to learn to live with it), and i’ve got the help of my boyfriend and other people who understand how it makes me feel. make fun of me all you want for getting triggered over a video game (trust me, i know fully well how stupid it is/sounds), but i just wanted to make my story (at least somewhat) known, so that maybe others who’re dealing with similar issues can take my cue and (hopefully) delve on their own path of self-healing or whatever they wanna call it.
but anyway, tl;dr, making people feel bad for something they didn’t mean to do isn’t right, and i hope that he can find some proper help for his trauma
why did it not register my paragraph spaces this is so much harder to read than i intended
