this is infuriating. too relatable of a story, it does not matter if you’re buddies or not and it sucks that even though somebody say “it doesn’t matter” when actually faced with it it sure seems to.

IF YOU THINK FOR ONE SECOND THAT SLAPPING A HALLOWEEN WRAPPER ON SOMETHING IS GOING TO MAKE ME BUY IT THEN YOU ARE absolutely correct and i’ll take 50.

I for one am shocked that ex-interim Blizzard co-CEO during one of its most troubled periods who now runs a fantasy football sports betting app is actually a dog whistling weirdo.

Don’t call layoffs and closures stuff like “reset” or “refresh” or “rejuvenation” or “rejigger” or “reshuffle” unless you’re trying to get clapped.

Hey so secretly hating someone and trying to sabotage their career and friendships for displaying autistic traits from YEARS ago and never once going to that person directly with an issue is fucking weird btw, especially if there’s been zero interaction for over 6 years. Clique behavior.

If you have an online audience and use it to obsessively track and post about a person to mess with their emotional state and livelihood (and routinely sic your fans on them), you should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. If you did this IRL, you would be.
