Great list, but the lack of Toradora! in it its a grave mistake.

Preface: I’m going to be getting into the state of mental health care and awareness in the US in this post; no part of what I say below is intended to remove blame from Mr. Giles, or to say that he is somehow innocent. I’m focusing on a larger concern that is illustrated by this article, rather than trying to address

Wow.

No, the bully is the person firing this poor woman for getting married, not an internet commenter saying that the person who did this lacked morals.

The article states she is enrolled in a university. One would hope she developed the minimum of critical thinking skills..... or just, you know, regular damn thinking skills.

I just assumed making all ATM buttons and housings with Braille was more cost effective than making two versions.
