....Was just about to say that this guy sounds like a real life Franzen character. Like he just stepped right off the page of a Franzen novel.

I feel like they would be such a cute sprint time flower. The kind that bees and butterflies and hummingbirds would flock to. I would plant the hell out of slut lillies and include them in all the bouquets I share with hostesses and grannies.

Maybe it’s the fist of an angry god?

Holy.

How are people masturbating in the seats next to you???

She seems unkind to me.

Oh, dear. How embarrassing.

>:(

What you listed in your comment are all really good pieces of advice. Thanks.

Dear god, that is so, so horrifying and depressing. I can’t even. I don’t even know what to say.

I can understand responding strongly to a writer who seems to hit below the belt with a played out trope when it comes to women and sexual violence.

So, wait. One of his characters becomes magically active because she was sexually assaulted? How do the males gain their magical strengths?

Poor young thing. That sounds rough. Glad you crossed that bridge. :)

Did you convince someone to buy you a six pack before you wrote this?

Jesus Christ, can your mum mentor me through my 30’s please?

Christ, I was boring as hell growing up.

I have an abnormal amount of vitriol for him, too. It bothers me.

Watching this over and over and over again is oddly satisfying.

Good. I hope it was spoiled for tons of other people, too.

Agreed. This is absolutely horrifying. How do you go on trusting anything that goes on in the world when something like this happens??! Stories like this make me feel so helpless for the injured.
