It was a real shock listening to your voice and wondering.. “Wow that sounds like Tristan…”

People can be Loving, Hateful, Conforting, Damaging and so one. Online or offline really makes no difference other then the ability to reach to a larger number of other people via the net.

The misogyny is palpable, including in the rarified airs of the A list. The mob hates hypocrisy more than it hates death threats or misogyny. The A List has been telling us how things should be for years now. It turns out they have a log in their own eye. I say light the torches.

It would be nice to know what actually started the problem in the first place. In a way it's kind of funny that people take blogging so seriously that they post death threats. Kind of like "Nerds Gone Wild" or something. Hopefully, it'll all get straightened out.
