    Honestly this is why I think people should be forced to have their face as a profile picture on any forum. I want to know if I’m arguing with a edgy 14 yr old or a 50 yr old man and it would stop so much hate honestly.

      Meh. Believe none of what you hear and very little of what you can see

      Unless a person is in front of you, don’t assume anything is real online. I mean it. Nothing online cannot be faked, nothing online HASNT been faked.

      The least trustworthy place in the universe. Is the internet.
