I don’t have the time, money, energy, or support to implement or supervise an online community here.  Therefore …

I don’t allow commenting on my blog.  If I do post approved feedback, it will follow the guidelines below.

1. This is a safe space for marginalized communities.  Allowed feedback must ensure to punch up, not down.  If the feedback contains potentially upsetting material (especially for abuse survivors), it will be prefaced with a trigger warning.
   
2. Witty snark is welcome in approved feedback.  Profanity, when directed against prejudice, bigotry, and intolerance, is also acceptable.
3. I am a cisgender, straight, African-American, atheist man who’s down with the QUILTBAG community.  I’m okay with being called black (since we fought for that word), but others might not be.
4. Tone trolling those lower down on the privilege ladder is not acceptable here.
5. Prayers, proselytizing, hate masquerading as love, and other such hypocritical and blatant disrespect are also not welcome here.
6. This space is all about meaningful, real, informed consent.  Arguing for a worldview that invalidates it won’t be tolerated here.

If you would like to get in contact with me, please feel free to fill out the contact form below. Only the first three fields are mandatory. The others are simply for my edification. The more I know about you and your feedback, the better I can address your concerns. Any feedback you give will be kept in the strictest of confidence.* If I do mention your feedback in a post, you will be kept anonymous unless you want to be given credit. Please give an avatar/pseudonym if you want credit, as I will not mention people by name here (unless they indicate they are comfortable with this—although I reserve the right to give someone a pseudonym for safety reasons or out of concern for their privacy).

* If I deem your feedback to be abusive, however, I reserve the right to rescind my concern for your anonymity and your feelings.
