Twitter and other online communities do have the power to ruin lives, particularly when the target is an average person who doesn’t have the ability to defend/isolate themselves from the doxxing or harassment. In the case of celebrities getting called out for shitty behaviour, I have a harder time laying the…

Twitter is a cesspool, but does it really have the power to 'destroy' someone like Payne, other than calling attention to his shitty behavior?
I feel as though the first couple years of the internet for me was just looking up halfremebered theme songs and commercials
I know I’m four years late on this but since there’s an opening, jesus was HBO’s Vinyl terrible!!! I watched about half of the show on a 12-hour flight, first out of genuine interest and then out of morbid curiosity. The scene where they talk to Elvis...I just...what the fuck??
The scene where all the ‘Freaks’ discuss their post-high school plans after Lindsay ditches them to become a mathelete again was just gut-wrenching. You can see the reality hit each one of them, and feel the blame they put on themselves even as you know that a part of it just seems inevitable.

I really feel Trump is trying to bring America back in time to the 1980s, before he became a complete goblin and caricature of himself, and that restarting the AIDS crisis is just part of his master plan.
He actually calls for compassion for the migrants and states that it’s wrong to generalize about them. It’s easy to forget in this shitty age that that should be the default position if anyone, even if they are kinda shitty otherwise.
also...
“dictated, not read”
it’s funny because either one of them disproves the existence of a loving god...
