Dec 2015

This past fall, I had five posts hidden in the span of 15 minutes. I was offline at the time. A crew of assholes alerted about twenty of my posts and managed to finally get the fifth hidden. The final post of mine committed the sin of saying (to a white guy), "Well, my boy..." . I was alerted because "boy" is racist.

It's only a little bit better here.
