“I like to treat women with respect, REAL MEN don’t hit women!” he posted on the reddit thread. It was less than a minute before it became the most upvoted post in the history of the internet. The code shifted as it evolved and blossomed into a cosmic entity of unspeakable power. There was a flash of white light and then, suddenly, nothing.
He felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned...

Hello assholes, meet my friend the clue-by-four
johnwatsonswindmachine:
I’m going to tell you something really fucking earthshattering: James Holmes didn’t kill people because he’s crazy. He did it because he’s a horrible human being. Why do I say that, you say?
Well, first off, I’m not an ableist sack of shit, so that helps tremendously. Second, PEOPLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS ARE WAY MORE LIKELY TO BE VICTIMS OF VIOLENT CRIMES THAN THE SAME...

jadelyn asked: Why do some people get so ANGRY over the idea of listing relevant privilege axes where people can easily find them? I genuinely don't understand why this so offends some people - well, this particular anon, anyway, as I'm fairly sure it's the same fuckwit who occasionally whinges into my askbox about my "about me" as well. (Also how does two people being fairly similar...

Anonymous asked: "Get the fuck out"? Wow, I am astonished by your civil, intelligent statement. It seems you are incapable of addressing my articulate argument, but I guess the horrible truth simply hurts because it's usually insecure people who can't admit that they're wrong who result to insulting when arguing. And go ahead, respond with another one of those little gifs of yours and yet...

Anonymous asked: You're right, the best I could muster was putting all of my feelings towards what he says and does into a note. I don't even know what I expect out of this. I guess I'm so attached because he was my very first sexual partner and I felt so close to him, I spend basically every hour with him. I guess I'm hoping for some silver lining. Thank you.

Anonymous asked: He doesn't say my armpit hair is disgusting, he doesn't mind it I guess. He doesn't mind the little fuck ups I make but it's other people and his wants and needs that sometimes out weigh my own personal desires. I can't explain it.

Anonymous asked: God I know he isn't, but I'm so weak that I feel like I can't handle his heartbreak or whatever, and I can't handle being without him for the first while. It's a shoddy response, but I have incredibly low self esteem and for now, he's there and I'm attracted to him. The thought of ending it makes me want to vomit.
