Things I've noticed happen in the general vicinity of my posts:

- Fundie nutjobs reduced to curling up in a little ball, plugging their ears, and spewing either contentless religious copypasta (Freeman) or barely-coherent amateur apologia (Bot).
- The Shitey Uzzard degenerating into mudslinging and pretending (badly) not to care when defeated in arguments...every single one of them.
- Insecure manchildren accusing me of being a transsexual (some random AC) on one hand, and on the other, an actual transwoman accusing me of being a TERF (Kurenai).
- Creeps like VLM, KHallow, JMorris, Entropy, and all their kind simply giving the hell up and abandoning ship when faced with a proper down-smacking for their fallacious sociopathy.

When you have people on the fringes everywhere angry with you, each of them accusing you of the precise opposite on the spectrum they hate, you must be doing something right. In all my time here, I've never gone in for trolling, deception, or shitposting. I've always stood for what's right, and took the fight to those who would try to spread their noetic poisons, fighting it everywhere it appears for the sake of anyone unfortunate enough to encounter it, knowing full well the originators of such poison are by their own choice irredeemable, certainly so in this lifetime.

And my approach drives them nuttier than squirrel vomit.

Well boo fucking hoo. When someone on here tells me I'm bitchy or angry, I just laugh, because what they really mean is "you're making me uncomfortable by exposing my bullshit in such direct, uncompromising, profanity-laced ways." It's pretty obvious the accusations of being a transsexual come from sheltered, misogynist little manchildren who can't handle actual women speaking the plain, unvarnished truth to them, because they have so little truck with the opposite sex they've never seen it in the real world before. No, this insult to their manly honor cannot stand! ONLY another man could POSSIBLY have the balls, literal balls, to stand up to them! (And of course the kind of person who'd make this argument lumps MtFs under the heading of "man." I don't, though I do draw an important distinction between transwomen and cisgender women because, frankly, they are never going to know what it is to have a period or risk being pregnant).

Time to put on your big-boy undies and join the adult world! The toughest people I know are all women, including my own mother and some of the nurses at work. I'm a marshmallow compared to them.

And I don't regret anything, as painful as it's been sometimes. Am I a "nice girl?" No, and haven't been for several years, and you know what? It's better this way. "Nice girls" get used and taken advantage of and thrown away and never have their needs met. "Nice girls" are the permanent victims of tone trolling by people too frightened or too weak to deal with them as the full human beings they are. In this place, at this time, as this site sinks further and further into RWNJ decay, all it means is I'll fight all the harder.

What I hope this does is encourage the people on here who still seek the light to defend it. Hit back. We're seeing on a number of scales, from the President's capitulation on his stupid bullshit shutdown right down to the examples at the head of this post, that the sociopaths are like any bully: weak, cowardly, amoral types who don't expect and can't handle sustained, principled pushback. Part of it is that evil simply can't comprehend good, but mostly it comes down to how bullies work and have always worked. Anyone who wants to join me in fighting the good fight, please do: we've seen that it works.

    I pay my dues in anti-human-trafficking work and homeless outreach, this despite being on the brink of homelessness myself constantly.

    If this is true why don't you get an actual tech job? Then you could stop being homeless and if you actually have some all consuming need to help other people you could literally fund an entire salary at a livable wage, for someone to do what you do now.... and still have enough left over that near-homelessness is no longer a concern.

    Whatever work you're doing is going to be of a lower quality than someone who doesn't have to hustle up a hundred dollars here and there when crisis enters their life. I am curious though. I was homeless/at risk of homelessness for a period of my life. It was relatively easy for me since the entire thing was planned well in advance. Identifying the things that you need to sustain a comfortable lifestyle. A safe place to sleep. A shower. Clean water. Identifying sources and having backup plans well in advance.

    The worst part was other homeless people. I'd make friends at the food bank or waiting in line for some other handout. The second I was on my feet.. the minute I had the smallest set of resources to borrow. All of them suddenly have a crisis where they will LITERALLY DIE WITHOUT MY HELP PLEASE GOD.
    Well as far as I know all of them are sadly still alive. I donate to the mission and to a food bank still but I believe nothing a homeless person tells me and I am not interested in interacting with them in any way. I would never be so cold hearted but it's my firsthand knowledge of the homeless community that made me this way.

    I honestly don't believe you do much for the homeless. You don't act much like the volunteers I saw, you act more like someone nobody wants to live with.

    I did do tech until recently, upon getting hired as a pharmacy technician. To be honest I've had enough of tech work as a culture; it's only going to get worse, what with MS's obvious leanings toward "Windows as a service" and Google and Apple tightening the screws, as wave after wave of worse malware and hacking washes up and more and more critical infrastructure is found wanting...to say nothing of the actual culture aspect of "the culture." Women are still not welcome in tech.

    You may believe what you wish as far as the rest goes. Even when i have nothing to donate, which is too often, I can at least listen to them. You'd be amazed what a difference that makes.

      1) It's obvious that you've lived most of your life as a socially awkward man.
      2) You could be training to become a LPN or a dental tech and have a stable middle class life in like a year.
      3) I doubt you talk to the homeless much. They lie constantly and they're deliberately emotionally draining because it helps them spange.

        If you're mentally unwell it might be wise to eliminate all shitheads from your life.

      Stop 'fighting the good fight' in various internet comment sections. Half the people you're fighting are paid russians who want to upset you. You seek out and allow yourself to suck down negative energy.
      Stop talking to homeless people. We're talking about a community that obtains "spange" animals so they can emotionally blackmail strangers into giving them money. One time I had a friend who had a dope fiend for a roommate. The guy was always late with rent, always a new set of reasons. He had to wreck his own credit and walk away from the lease so the landlord could evict the fucker. See it was his original plan to just wait out the remainder of the lease and leave. But the fiend 'borrowed' the guy's turtles so he could sit on the corner with a sign "homeless and hungry please feed my turtles" and get money for drugs.
      We're not sure what happened but a few days later the turtles both died.

      Yeah just about anyone becomes a wreck when they deal with the homeless. Go take care of yourself and stop looking for trouble. Stop pretending to be a martyr.

        Noooot even gonna dignify this with a proper response. You're a perfect example of the "insecure manchild" I specifically mentioned in the journal entry itself. Sorry if being blunt and rude offends you, cupcake.
