zelda<p>-- 2<br>This next part might be describing a <a href="https://cyberplace.social/tags/microaggression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>microaggression</span></a> or just a cranky lady who takes herself too seriously, but I go to grab a gyro sample for my dad, and a family's kid was hogging the front of the stand. I wasn't in the mood to be patient, so I reached around the sides of the tray cover to the back corner and got one, just before the worker got onto me for not reaching from the front. I panicked (recovering from crippling anxiety) and put it back immediately before she hands me it back</p>

Anoosh J<p>When I meet kids with unfamiliar names, I have them repeat it carefully, then pronounce it until I get it right. Then I always say something positive about it, like "That's so beautiful!" or "That's such a cool name!" The way kids light up when I say it is heartbreaking. I know they have gone through years of people saying their names wrong and perhaps asking if they have a nickname (or not even asking, just doing it). I do it for them, and I do it for Past Me.</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/microaggression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>microaggression</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/marginalization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>marginalization</span></a></p>
