    I understand your choices. I remember standing at the door, ready to knock and I'm already hyped up. I am anticipating or pretending to ignore my parents attempts to paper over her terrible parenting past with her new surrogate family. I was ready to knock, then turned around and got back into my car. Easily twenty years ago and I haven't been back since.

    I was on Reddit for only eight years and remember when a locked post was something buzzworthy. Over the past two years especially, people seemed to be less shameful about espousing hateful thoughts or ideas in general. I do miss the old smart Reddit but those people have moved on. I won't tolerate or support Huffmans stance against people or the "landed gentry" as he calls that helped build Reddit.
