Yes Cameron, we're all well aware that you love your son. We just don't beleive you give a shit about anyone elses children, disabled or not 14:00:07, 2014-10-15
Maybe it would ultimately be a good thing if GamerGate tried to spread to other media. "You can't fight a battle on two fronts." 14:03:05, 2014-10-15
It seems to me it would ultimately cause them to loose cohesion. But it'd be a horrible ugly road. 14:03:57, 2014-10-15
@sevenhelz I'd say more cause than effect. When I start feeling I'm living in a shithole, I feel I've failed and stop taking care of myself. in reply to sevenhelz 14:05:08, 2014-10-15
