  1. Honestly none of these people would survive a few minutes in the flame warrior arenas of old, in the days of dialup BBs&rough neighborhoods of old alt on usenet They've never even seen that sort of pure invective or elemental vituperation. They'd be crying in the corner deciding down or a across

  4. For a dozen years or so I've had a posse of right-wing fuckwits trying to assert I am not a real man because I don't perform masculinity exactly to their (extremely sad and limiting) definition of the concept, and yes, that sort of gender-patrolling is on a shitty spectrum that includes transphobia
