Exhaustion

[lurkerwithout]

I'm so tired. Physically tired from not being able to sleep normally. And knowing thats my own damn fault for not working to be healthy. But tired mentally. Tired of people...

Tired of seeing people REACT THE WRONG DAMN WAY TO SOMEONE IN TROUBLE. Tired of blaming the victim.

Tired of the wrong fucking people going to jail

Tired of my fandoms being full of racists and morons.

Just. So. Fucking. Tired.

Someone wake me when the rest of the fucking species grows the hell up...

I'm tired of the internet. Srsly.. I'm losing my mind b/c of all the dramuh :(

I'm thinking of taking a break from the whole internet for a while...

The problem isn't the internet as such.

People are stupid and ignorant and hateful in real life too. It's just the internet lets you distill and concentrate it so it seems worse :/

[lost-angelwings.livejournal.com]

I know.

I just need a break from knowing about it :(

Ignoring it won't fix the problem.

Indeed, the assholes get away with all this crap because most people are willing to ignore it.

[lost-angelwings.livejournal.com]

I. Know. This.

I speak out about all of this crap too!

But it's rly triggering me lately. Esp all the talk of assault and rape. I'm allowed to want a BREAK FROM IT for my OWN SANITY aren't I!?

Yes, you're allowed to take a break. I wasn't aware of your current situation, and I'm sorry if I offended you.

Sadly, I personally know someone who was in complete denial regarding a family member who was a pedophile. As a result I have developed a knee-jerk reaction regarding people who deliberately turn a blind eye to such behavior. But I concede that taking a break is completely different from turning a blind eye -- Ghod knows I've taken breaks when things have gotten too much for me to deal with.

Again, I apologize if I offended you.

In that case, I won't link you to the article about the substitute teacher in Florida that got fired for being accused of wizardry. He made a toothpick disappear and reappear in front of his students.

I think I saw a link to that one. But got distracted by all the other stupid people...

[alexlucard.myopenid.com (from livejournal.com)]

I want to read that!

[lurkerwithout.livejournal.com]

Check theweaselking. I think I saw it on his journal...

....i- is that Dave guy a troll? I'm having trouble telling whether he's serious or not. His stuff reads like a carefully-crafted set of fakeposts. O_O

he showed up in Val's blog too where he gets a full name o_o;;

[lurkerwithout.livejournal.com]

I thought Val screened commenters now?

I guessed that b/c she blogged about him, and he showed up to defend himself, she felt she had to at least let him be heard.
