No, I do have to learn to curb the dark humour especially without context.
I say some horrific things coping with my own stuff but it doesn’t apply to other peoples struggles and I forget how my gallows humour comes across
I use dark humour every day to cope, whether I vocalise it or not. I insult my mother and make jokes about her, I joke about my ex, I joke about my trauma. You joking about gulags is not a big deal. It really isn't. If we cannot joke and find humour in our darkest times, that is when all hope is lost.
You apologised, whether it is accepted or not shouldn't matter to you. It's okay. Do not let this curb your funny self!
If it’s any consolation I wouldn’t be laughing long. Due to multiple intersections my arse would be collected quite quickly
You have gallows humour? All this time I have been thinking you are serious.
And I say that sincerely.
I do have gallows humour. I don’t think this will happen openly and immediately. However I do get quite nervous at seeing certain trends due to historical events, similarities in patterns, and the slipperiness of the slope.
And the fact that more currently people do lack critical skills and keep buying into certain kinds of ideological manure
