There's this idea like feminism is humorless and humorless in a way that's like a whistleblower. Like you're going to - you're going to make sure that nobody has any fun. And that's not true at all.

I have been a longtime perpetrator of hate crimes against myself, and I am turning myself in. I have had enough.
