I think in person discussions are much healthier than online ones, because there is a human being sitting across from you rather than a screen name

If your conversations involve people wanting you exterminated… I think in person vs online is even more important. It’s not possible to argue that kind of stance in person unless they’re a crazy person, in which case just avoid those I guess

For example, you found it necessary to personally attack me in another thread, so I think we found where some of the mental health issues actually come from

See in some settings I can avoid them. But transphobic sexist weirdos are not only incredibly over-represented in IT, but also I kinda don't really get to choose my coworkers.

So yeah, I'll stick with work from home, and I'll have, you know, actual friends otherwise. _Some_ of whom _may_ happen to be coworkers past or present.

This comment is funny, because it _is_ a personal attack, meanwhile I didn't even realize you're the same person.
