this site is actually so mean literally all the time so im posting this here to let you know you’re not ‘too sensitive’ or something for not wanting to deal with attacks on your gender/body/intelligence for daring to exist and have fun online. the freaks that act like this are NOT the norm (they are just the loud and obnoxious minority) and it’s OK to take your time in recognizing this. <3

If I wrote comments like I chat in a grocery store queue I’d never write a single comment.
Most of the arseholes who are arseholes on the Internet are arseholes I’m real life too.
People who chat at the grocery store, or wish you a good day when you are waking in the street are also usually people who are friendly and helpful on the Internet too.
People who get angry because someone else has the gumption to share a road with them are also the kind of people who abuse other Internet users because they share a server in an online game, social network or forum with them. They are also the type of people who get angry queuing at the supermarket and abuse retail workers.
If you filter out the “buzzwords of the week” you generally get calmer threads
Its not perfect but I’ve been lucky enough to have some very pleasant interactions here
