So it kinda makes me mad that OCC-GSA has only had one meeting, i'm not even an officer yet, and already i have people saying shit and twisting my words. I was on the phone with doug (the guy who helped me start/run the group) and he was like "yea, I wanted to talk to you about your negativity during the meeting" "uuummmm what?" some guy I don't ( Read more... )

oh matt,

one thing I've been learning about vision and org for womens issues is that hate is progression. the more I'm hated the more I am straying from normalcy, and being hated is tied in with having words twisted. Have you even read listproc lately? People had really twisted what I said, and because of that I had to create this ally inclusive event to appease the gay gods >_And...every gay group has it's good points and it's bad points as well as they eb and flow over time (as I've come to find out) You started your own gsa and that's the greatest thing ever. It's so important to have one and create a community. But after that it's not your responsibility to keep it afloat. You started it, but it is not your responsibility to be the face of it, or of all the gays at owens. You're you're own person ( ... )

personal attacks happen a lot when you're an officer - and you are, because you started it.

You gotta roll with it, remember how it was when I ran pins and needles into my forhead for a year? Don't do that.

Spectrum is actually flourishing, what's wrong with it? Something I haven't grapevined? Megan is leaving, so I'm sure they have a new pres. or will soon, but they have done some really great things this year, notsomuchcanbesaidforvisioncough.

Maybe associating with both organizations would keep from alienating people who live/are closer to Toledo. You need all the solidarity in Ohio you can get!

But congrats on the group, you'll do awesome things. Yaaay!

And boooh! to the people who ratnitpick all the time!!
