@ginavalley: Thanks for reading!

Silence definitely does nothing to hold internet thugs accountable for their behavior and especially for the threats of rape and violence they make. I’m all for dragging them out, exposing them, and forwarding their information to the proper authorities. Exposure is the risk they take when they start going from your standard act of trolling, to hate-filled rhetoric and threatening to harm people.

@Val, Lol! You know fucking with folks on the internet with ad hominems is probably the highlight of OlderWoman’s, and most other anonymous trolls’, otherwise mundane lives. Psychologists call it “Deindividuation”; I call it hilarity. Either way s/he can cook… and keep those site hits coming.

Very well put. Thank you, Tiff! This message needs to be out and repeated. Sitting silent doesn’t silence bullies.

Thanks for reading and for giving us that site click anyway, though! You never disappoint. And don’t worry… your identity is safe. You’re like the unofficial TIOMAR mascot. xo
