Panhandler in St.Vital Pulls Out a Knife

Umm... Are you aware of what therapy is for? Like, I'm legit asking, even though I'm going to explain it anyways.

It's about helping people to be who they want to be (or who they feel they already are in my case). I'm in therapy, getting the help I need. I even see my therapist tomorrow. They've already helped me a ton. I don't want to be like y'all, you're a bunch of bigots.

I'll see y'all offline, though. Except you won't know it's me... Despite the fact I'm the same online as I am offline. I treat employees with kindness, I react to people pleasantly and I stand up to any bullies I come across. So, please, explain to me why these types of situations never befall me offline. I'd really love to know why it is the people out there have an easier time understanding what I say than they do online... I imagine it has to do with hearing the shifts in my voice, seeing my body movement, etc. it's easier to grasp context, in other words. But, if you have a better idea, then please tell me.

I mean, did you just hear what I said in a tone I didn't use (such as a hostile or condescending one)? Or did you hear it in the one I did use which is just an average, calm tone?
