I live my life in the real world where trainwrecks like Brianna Wu are abhorred and shunned

personally I would steer clear of digital hugboxes where disasters like that are celebrated but hey if thats what youre into

you think about her probably most days and she has no idea who you are lmfao

(though my emotional investment is actually in funny GBS slapfights between weirdo internet tribes who both try to take the "I don't care, you care" approach to winning an argument)
