I read one of your blog posts about empathy this mornjng. It resonated with me and my recent views on the world.

Too late for me, I’ve been Daychilde since 1996, didn’t keep it separate from my real name, and I’m on wikipedia, so it’s trivial to find me. lol.
The good is that I can report that it’s pretty safe to have an open identity. So far. heh

Ahhhh, sometimes I forget the implications of me opening my big mouth in cases like this. lol. Well, I’m glad it was a positive experience. :) It’s something I need to remind myself constantly of as I am bad about getting sucked into responding to perceived rudeness with rudeness of my own - I definitely have RSD and it fucking sucks.

haha, oh man. That actually reminds me. I know I mentioned the wiki thing - this is me: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beck_v._Eiland-Hall
Basically, back in 2009, I created glennbeckrapedandmurderedayounggirlin1990.com. It was largely in response to Glenn Beck’s stupid technique of interviewing people - like to our first sitting Muslim member of Congress: “Now, I wouldn’t say this, but some people are asking: Are you working for our enemies?” - to an elected member of Congress!
Of course, this was back in the Muslim-scare days after 9/11 still in 2009… and now we definitely have people in Congress working for our enemies.
But anyway. So the parody site.
My wife found a forum where some idiots were trying to track me down. I mean, my real name and address was out there, but they were looking for more information about me and the site. They were talking about what organizations must be funding this attack on their beloved Beck.
There was controversy at the time because an orgnization called ACORN was trying to get people to register to vote and supposedly signing up on behalf of people. IIRC the allegations were either bullshit or it wasn’t a big deal or maybe it was and it was dealt with. All I remember for sure is that I thought it would be hilarious to offer these chucklefucks “evidence” for their conspiracies.
So I went out and copied the raw HTML from a 404 page on the ACORN website and made that the custom 404 page for my site. An then, to help these idiots “find” it, I made a “mistake” - I announced something on the main page and linked to a page that supposedly had the full story, only I intentionally put a typo in the link so the 404 page would come up. lol.
Oh, man, they went N U T S over in the forum “HOLY SHIT ITS ACORN BEHIND THIS” lolololol…
But anyway, your gif absolutely reminded me of those morons. That’s how I envisioned their “hacking” of me. lol
