NVM found it.

Yeah man I’d bum that. All day.
Dude no. Have you seen her face? Have you seen her armpits? Her armpits are hairier than a sasquatch's bumhole!

Lots of emotive blog style garbage padding it out, but the key parts seem to be:

















I don't think she has fully grasped why the site is laughable in most cases personally. And I can't make out what angle she is going for from quote 2, 3 and 4. Logic would say that if you're making those statements, you are effectively acknowledging it is pointless to repeatedly state them across many articles, but then she goes on to say about the articles aren't for that wider readership - which it sounds like they are trying to reach.

They also want people to talk about their articles in mature settings and part of everyday conversations yet paradoxically say they don't care if the language they use is professional or respectable?? Wat.
As you point out her response is vague and pandering. Idealists like to smash things up and aim for things without any real idea of how they will get there. Nothing will change.

Report me for console warring
Yes, for example two of my 7 personalities are marginalized by the other five.

Fuck this shit

No fuck you

I just don't feel safe

Bring your big black ass out of here

Please calm ok?

Shut up and go back to the kitchen.

“I know I am fat and ugly, but please think of me as a woman. Preferred pronouns her/she”

“Erm...ok...sure whatever. You know you still look like a man right? Just a man with makeup on?”

“How dare you marginalise my identity. I am a woman now”
