This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.

So much respect for that.
I wish somebody had told me this when I was raped.
“Those poor boys’ lives will be ruined because of this.”
“But the girl was wearing—”
“She was drinking alcoho—”
“They won’t be able to play football anymore!”
“The boys’ futures are ruined because of her!”
“She should be held accountable, too!”
“What did she think was going to happen!?”
Fuck you CNN :)
In the face.
Well said. :)
This.

Fucking this.
Well, Spoony’s dating again. I feel bad for the girl and the inevitable nuclear fallout, rape threats and death threats to be heaved her way following their breakup and her baseless vilifying at Noah’s hands.
Like he did when Scarlett broke up with him.
Because Noah’s a punk bitch.
Or a two-year-old.
Both, I guess.
But I’m not being sarcastic, I do legitimately feel terrible for that poor woman. I hope she escapes that relationship without being on the receiving end of the same shit Scarlett was.
THIS. I am actually terrified for this woman. With the way that Lupa’s being harassed by Spoony’s fans and how much Scarlett gets slutshaming from them as well, I can only imagine what would happen to this person if she decides to break up with Spoony. She’s actually ALREADY getting shit from them just because her hair is pink and they think that’s too close to being a red head like Scarlett. What the actual fuck?
TRIGGER WARNING FOR SEXISM, AND MENTIONS OF RAPE AND MURDER.
If you honestly think that it’s perfectly alright to send rape and murder threats to Allison Pregler than FUCK. YOU. She didn’t get Spoony “fired”, he choose to leave TGWTG, he even fucking said himself that Allison is not to blame for this. So why must you still harass this woman? Is it because she called his ass out? FUCK YOU ONCE AGAIN. He made a rape joke to a personal friend of hers and kept on being an asshole to all his fans and close friends. Before you all say anything, the fact that he has a mental disorder DOES NOT EXCUSE the actions he did. Depression and Bipolar Disorder are NOT ‘get out of the responsibility free’ cards. Someone needed to say something to him. Someone needed to tell him to knock his shit off and grow up. So Allison was the one to do it (along with some others btw.)
It sure is nice to know that Noah can say all kinds of sexist shit, destroy friendships, never apologize for anything and get away with just a slap on his wrist. Meanwhile, Allison continually gets harassment from his shitty fans just because she spoke up to him and that they honestly believe she’s the reason that he’s no longer a part of Channel Awesome. Nice to know that male privilege wins once again. :| :| :|
Hey Noah? Collect your fucking fans because this shit has gone too far. Also, I don’t wanna hear from any of you saying, “BUT WE’RE NOT ALL LIKE THAT!” If you want to prove to me that you all truly aren’t like this than start collecting some assholes. Don’t just stand around and let them say the shit they’re saying, CALL THEM OUT. Tell them to shut the fuck up and educate themselves. Tell them to stop making rape and murder threats to a woman. Because seriously? I’m tired of seeing this.
For those of you that follow me, you might’ve noticed I disappeared from the internet for about a week or so. And if you follow me on twitter, you might’ve noticed my last tweet went like this:
“Every day with this. Get a life and learn the facts, I’m sick of this shit. Done.”
Yeah, sorry about that.
I didn’t really intend that as a dramatic exit or to take the break like I did. I can assure you that I haven’t quit the videos and I’m not suicidal.
I’ll explain the tweet though. I’ve been in an emotional funk lately and it’s hard to shake. Events from the past year have left a lasting mark on me and it’s something that’s likely to follow me for a long time. It’s easy to say I’m being over-dramatic, to just let it slide, but it wears on you, to hear what an awful person you are for a year, to have people follow you wherever you’ve touched, to try and get that last dig in. It’s hard to have so called vigilantes follow you around to dole out justice for a situation they know none of the facts on, for something you didn’t do.
Around the time all of this was going on, I received six letters threatening to find me, rape me, or kill me. This was coupled with pictures of people being murdered and stamps that said “justice.” Like big damn heroes.
I had to go to the police, my family installed security doors, and I slept with the lights on. You see it doesn’t just affect me. But I’m not sure if I’ll ever escape internet villainy now that rumors have become fact. People believe and hear what they want to believe because it makes things easier on them. And someone has to get the blame.
So it’s been wearing on me lately, and that’s what led to that. But I never intended it as a big dramatic exit, it was only meant to let off steam. Shortly after I said that I was going on a trip out of town, which meant less time on the internet anyway. Combined with a lot of personal feelings I’ve had concerning my work lately I didn’t feel like messaging much anyway.
While I was on this trip, I got some news about a family emergency. I won’t go into details about it, I’ll only say that it was a life or death situation, and one that’s currently still up in the air.
I had to step back for a bit. I didn’t disappear and I didn’t mean to leave people hanging. I can assure you that the kind words people have sent my way, without knowing the situation, have been appreciated. It means a lot to have people care that much. Thank you.
So what does this mean for the videos? Well, not much right now. I plan to have a video shot and edited before Sunday and try to get back on schedule then. Barring life stuff I should be able to put things out regularly again. Life, as always, will go on.
So to end things on a lighter (or possibly more terrifying) note, here’s a crying Pomeranian:
I’m so sorry you’re going through all this bullshit, Lupa. You defiantly have my support in this. People need to knock this shit off right now and quit being a bunch of assholes.
Text (would be legible on actual shirt):
1. You have no problem with the gender wage gap. But you hate having to pay for dates.
2. You insist that it’s a scientifically proven fact that men are stronger than women. But you complain about society believing that it’s worse for a man to hit a woman than for a woman to hit a man.
3. You believe that the age of consent is unfair and that there’s nothing wrong with having sex with teenage girls. But when you find out that a teenage girl enjoys sex, you believe she’s the biggest slut in the world.
4. You hate when a woman automatically assumes that a man is a douchebag before getting to know him. But when you like a woman who likes another man, you assume he’s a douchebag just because he’s not you.
5. You believe that if women want equality, they should be drafted into the military. But you also believe that the military is not a place for women.
6. You hate when women assume that men are like wild animals. But you believe that a woman who doesn’t cover up and make herself invisible to men is just like someone wearing a meat suit around wild animals.
7. You hate the fact that men are bullied for not conforming to their male gender roles. But when you find out that a man disagrees with your beliefs about women’s rights, your immediate response is to try to emasculate him by comparing him to a woman as an insult.
8. You hate when women assume that there are no nice guys. But you call yourself a nice guy and act like it’s a rare quality that should cause women to be all over you.
9. You hate when women assume that men just want to get laid. But when you find out that a man is a feminist, you assume that he’s just doing it to get laid.
10. You hate when women make generalizations about all men. But when a woman calls you out for being sexist, you claim that all men think like you.
11. You insist that women should be responsible for protecting themselves from being raped. But when they follow the one piece of advice that actually works, which is being aware of red flags, you complain about them assuming that all men are rapists.
(slow clap)
Yeah, that pretty much sums it all up.
