Frank Especially. That Man Is Into Some Interesting Things.

Shitlibs will try to invalidate your experience just because they haven’t personally experienced it. These same people talk over POC, disabled, neurodivergent, and LGBTQ members because they haven’t personally experienced a specific thing. Congrats! The world doesn’t revolve around you. Quit being a jerk and open your ears. Shut your mouth.

im pregnant in the snow shivering wearing rags balding with no money, can you solve my puzzle?

It’s very unfortunate that there’s a section of the internet that believe this behavior is normal and justified. No matter what you do you’re beholden to a permanent unpayable penance to them. It’s a disgusting thing to do and expect of another person.

One part of being subjected to long term online harassment is that your abusers expect you to conduct yourself with some sort of higher honor, like a social media varian of "You go high, we go low."

"You can't copyright strike videos that steal from you to profit off you!"

"You can't mass flag harassment!"

"You can't call your stalkers horrible names!"

But like... why?

Why shouldn't I do all of that? You're going to act like I'm a monster and subject me to horrible abuse no matter what I do. You will literally never stop. You're already lying about me and you expect me to believe that I have the power to make you stop by capitulating to your demands? I could be on my best behaviour for the next 20 years and you'll still be doing this shit.

So what reason do I or anyone else have to not do all of those things?

My time has come.

The Midwest has seen everything. You’re not the first west coast baby to move to the Midwest and you won’t be the last.

Some of you have let rage consume your soul and will never heal because you’re in a perpetual cycle of rage. Let go.

Certain delis will sell prepared food covered by EBT but it’ll be cold. Just refrigerated to the point that you can’t eat it outright. Like a pre cooked spaghetti dinner with sauce on it. Hard potatoes wedges with chicken strips. Some of the EBT conditions seem spiteful. Unless you have an oven or microwave it’s not a good value. (WIC restrictions also seem weird too. But that’s another conversation. )

Coming out was easier than coming out as an anime fan.

Found several packs' worth of pokemon cards strewn across a target parking lot and took a pic to show my friends without realizing how much my outfit elevated the scene to "aftermath of a wizard duel"

Because people obsessed with celebrities find the weirdest things to obsesses over. I wouldn’t be surprised if it lit up the same area of the mind as love. Very parasocial.
