Like imagine going to a pride parade and you see some twink u never met and be Iike, “hey colleague! How’re u? How’s the bottom job position working for you?”

“Colleague”… That’s a funny word…

    This post was reported for being offensive. Its hard to know what is offensive to all groups of people. “Colleague” is a pretty innocuous term and “twink” seems to be context dependent. It doesn’t seem obviously derogatory in this context, “you see some dude” feels similar. I won’t take action for now. I’m very open to feedback, being wrong, and learning. Thanks all.

      Is that your weird minimizing way of saying you reported it, or did you somehow learn of a reporting?

        I’m a mod, so the latter. I want the reporters to know they are heard, but also I tend to be slow to take action.
