Yaas. It's been a busy fucking semester. Just handed in a 32 page report today
I've only been messaging people at night when I'm exhausted or the brief moments during the day where I have time to look at my phone and reply.

and about our conversation yesterday, i admit i could have expressed my thoughts better, but keep in mind i have a legit mental impairment that affects exactly that, expressing thoughts and emotions
i can only do so much to mitigate it

It was a good convo. But, I think we both realized it wasn't going anywhere after awhile tongue emoticon

i shared a log of the conversation with a few other friends i trust, and they agreed with both of us, i could have phrased my point better, but you also were going out of your way to be offended by some of my arguments
but that you also had many valid points

I don't think it's fair to speak for me and tell me how I felt about the conversation considering I wasn't offended by the comments.

"at the same time he seems to have deliberately gone overboard in looking for things to be offended by"
im not putting words in your mouth, and this guy is someone with even more years on his belt than both of us combined

The "too sensitive" excuse is extremely outdated and only used by people who clearly don't have the political will to call out oppressive language when it occurs.
If that person thinks calling out racist remarks means someone is "looking to be offended", they have some thinking to do themselves lol. Why would anyone look to be offended?

I really don't want to do this, but I'm going to have to say goodbye as a friend
it hurts to say that more than you know, but i'm seeing parts of your personality that i honestly can't say i can see in a friend

No worries. We live in a complicated world and clearly have huge a difference in opinion that only further complicates things
