in the case of DP, he doesn't get that the reason "the community" generally rejects him is primarily his self-important arrogance... which isn't a good look on anyone

Sometimes a catchy title is half the battle :)

I've shunned DP since the Soul Garden days when he was a DJ in a chatroom. He made bigoted remarks about Muslims and when I pointed out that I was a Muslim he ignored me. Other people in the chat room said, "oh my" and other sympathetic comments.

I was a regular in Soul Garden, so much so they asked me to moderate the Leo forum (I declined) so it wasn't as if DP didn't know me from Eve. I contacted Christopher Witecki about the bigoted comment, and I got no reply. Since I was SFAS's Dir. of Publicity and I gave exposure to astrologers in our social networks, I made it a rule not to give exposure to either of these men.

DP is an embarrassment to Leo men.

He made a big deal about how much he *loved* Michael Lutin, and recently re-posted an interview he did with Lutin in something like 2018. If you watch it, Michael's expressions are pretty hilariously "Oh God I have to tolerate you" and DP never caught on.

And yes, DP is a pretty horrible person.

Micheal Lutin was a speaker at SFAS. I crocheted a kufi for him to keep his bald head warm. He was very sweet. I could imagine Michael getting ocular injury from rolling his eyes at DP.

Thank you. I have and I will -- but truthfully? My sometimes crippling acrophobia remains. But I hope I can make it.
