    Stories like this give me goosebumps. I’m so thrilled for her and her accomplishments. She sounds like an amazing person.

    Then the goosebumps go away when I look at the downvotes and realize how many people, even here on Lemmy, have unfounded seething hatred for people they don’t know. She’s just trying to live her life, get over yourselves.

      Motherfucker, if you need a safe space that’s more accepting than Lemmy, it might be you that has the problem lol.

      That’s a heck of an accusation and assumption you made there.

      She’s just trying to live her life, get over yourselves.

      Wow and quite the contemptuous remark to end it.
