argumate:

anais-ninja-bitch:

me: i wanna express a potentially controversial opinion without having to field the disk horseshit it might generate. wish anonymous post were a thing.

my mutuals: send an anon ask to @argumate. they’ll field it.

me: sounds mean and cowardly?

my mutuals: meh.

me: worse yet, what if they disagree with me?

reminder that I am the public receptacle of bad opinions and am happy to print whatever you mad fuckers are too chicken to say out loud (as long as it doesn’t concern chickens, I think we’re done with those).

Been lately realizing how I’ve kind of come into that role, as the magazine editor-like position that people send me anon submissions that are clearly tailored to my taste in hopes I’ll present it to the audience I’ve built up reputation with

And I only answer like 5% of my anons, but if I answered 10% I’d just encourage them to the point I’d only be answering 2.5% of them at that standard anyway

But for all that I am proud of how I’ve curated a community, at this point even the hate anons spending months trying to gaslight me into thinking any sense of intelligence or worth is a manic delusion exhibit an awareness and analysis at least 3 layers deeper than the norm
