A Word About Open Forums

July 8, 2020 by tamaratattles 37 Comments

“You shut the fuck up! I’m so sick of you!”

They are not that open. I had things in place to stop certain triggering conversations on this site. This morning I woke up to the first comment I read being triggering. WordPress  has been acting up, eating half my recaps and erasing the words I do not allow allow here. There is a reason I don’t like open forums.  Please don’t mistake Open Forums for being you space to open everyone else’s wounds. Do not use open forums to be places where you can harm others by talking about other people’s pain. Try to use some common sense. I have blocked most of the triggering words. While you are able to rant in the Open Forums, you are not allowed to trigger people who have gone through emotionally damaging experiences by bringing them up. This is an entertainment and gossip website.  A place we go to forget certain things. So if your rant will trigger others, TAKE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE.

      My first thought was “Did I say something that hurt someone?”

      Unlike the RH of everywhere. Their first thought would be “I’m always right, she couldn’t be talking about me!”

      It was you. And you should know better. I should not have to wake up to that shit. DO Better. This is not the site for that and you of all people should know better. That was not the first fucking thing on my site when I woke up this morning.n I do not give air to that shit, If I wanted to discuss it I would have.

        I am partly to blame as well. I asked a question to Erica about that case so I take responsibility for perpetuating the conversation to some degree. My bad. And I’m very sorry if I contributed to triggering anyone. I do know better and I know how it feels to be triggered. Please accept my sincere apologies.

    I was referring to Erica who thought it was okay to rant about child sexual abuse here. IT IS NEVER OKAY TO BRING THAT UP HERE EVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMARANCE unless I am talking about someone going to jail. And it surely doesn’t need to be the first fucking thing I read on my own goddamn site.

          Understood, and no need to apologize. I’m really surprised by the intense feelings that particular news stirred up for me. I shouldn’t have dumped my rage here. It was thoughtless in the truest sense of the word.

          Hope tomorrow is better.

      I am also partly to blame as well as I added my “tuppence worth” about purgatory.

      My sincere apologies.

    I def. missed something but I think it says a lot about this community that people who this post were about are sorry and not being in the least bit defensive… In fact people are out right exposing their involvement and expressing regrets. Thanks for being my favorite site to go to when I need to treat myself to a little work break. This site often has me laughing out loud, and it’s really incredible that there’s a commitment to not hitting below the belt. Most gossip sites cannot say the same, or just don’t care one way or another. I hope everyone who reads this comment has a great hair day and finds a dollar the next time they venture into the word.

      The most important thing you missed was the pork chop recipe with apples, brown sugar, dollops of butter, and sauerkraut as I can’t find it.

      I was planning to try it with cabbage, mustard seeds and cider instead of sauerkraut and it’s gone.

    JC Tamara, I think you need to get a grip on yourself and STOP blaming, accusing and attacking your commenters… I”ve watched this for years and you are out of control… I’m sick of reading every post starting off about YOU… STOP PLAYING THE VICTIM ALL THE TIME.. GET HELP… And I could give a rats ass if you block or post this…

    I participated in a neighborhood parade today for three neighbors on my street, two just turned 90, and the third just turned 92 and still mows his own grass! They all looked SO CUTE standing outside, waving at us as we drove by and honked & waived! The parade was lead off by 4 little girls dressed in princess dresses, carrying a HBD banner! Adorable!!! <3

      That’s great! We live on 5 plus acres and in two houses. My mother in law in one and us in the other. I have to keep an eye on her when the husband goes to work so she is not outside doing too much. She turned 96 in March and she can’t wait to hope on the John Deere and cut grass. She has slowed down a tad this year and she is “letting” us tend to the gardens (which total about an acre). That woman cans everything. She’s pissed the state took her drivers license away LMAO! The woman never stops. Maybe we should hook her up with the 92 year old grass cutter.

    I would like to say Thank You to all the enablers on this site.

    You have enabled me to have a voice and more important you have enabled me to mentally, emotionally and physically cope since March.

    During lockdown your comments have enabled me to review my life as well as allow me to take a step back and review my personal choices in the new “normal”

    You have enabled me to get my arse out of the chair when I was feeling low, you have made me laugh and I mean belly laugh, you have given me insight, so keep up with that enabling as I appreciate the support.

        We are hitting the high 90’s I am heading up to the mountains for the weekend just to get some head space plus if no-one around I don’t have to wear a mask.

        I would be be sleeping in the pool 106 that is seriously harsh.

        Have a FAB weekend.

    Ok. I’m posting this because there hasn’t been an open post for a while.. I’m dying!
    I just listened to ex-VPR’s Kristen’s first podcast rant since her canceling.
    It is fascinating.. I’ve always loved Kristen. I’m flighty and super emotional, too.
    She brings up a lot of good points that I agree with..and there are some super cringe moments, too.
    She also promotes her T-shirt line ad nauseam. Lol
    Worth a listen..
