YES, exactly what I felt. Looking at those pictures of Adam Lanza as an innocent little kid, I feel so sad, and inexplicably, probably unfairly angry toward his father for saying that. A lot happens in between being born and killing 27 people.
No one should have to see the little creature.
Her nipples are treading on dangerous ground. Be careful girl.

Same, this guy's art gets under my skin in the worst way, it's some weird form of synesthesia or something. Get it off me is the only thing I can think now!
Social worker PSA:
....an incredibly beautiful 23-year-old girl, a girl I was jealous of, to be totally transparent, tell us with horrifying casualness about a recent sexual assault and wrap up by saying "I know this isn't my fault. I know that when I look this way, these things will happen to me. It's just the way it is."
