This denial of the inevitable is causing me what I dread the most. How long?
stop mind.
stop feeling.
If you’re a coward this town will tear you apart and we made sure of it many centuries ago. Don’t be a coward. Don’t be filth. Don’t be afraid.

:( MegaUpload RIP
MegaUpload saved my ass back in 2009, I was doing some homework in class ( college) I had all my crap saved and ready to go onto my flash drive ( about 8gb of work) …FLASH DRIVE WAS STOLEN.
oh shit, what can i do?! how can i take my homework home with me? I can’t leave it on the rig in class because it will get erased!!!
So I signed up at MegaUpload, uploaded my shit on there, (password protected so only i can get my shit back) went home having a heart attack of sorts, I got on my computer and BOOM, my shit was there. all of it.
I was able to move my content onto a new flash drive and then I was able to turn in all my assignments in the next day.

MegaUpload saved my ass in 2011 when I knew my home rig was about to die, i had about ( lol, 10gb) of personal artwork I had made, projects and whatnot. I stashed my shit again on MegaUpload so I can retrieve my stuff when I got my computer back up and working a few days later.

I am so sad to see MegaUpload gone, is YouTube next? Is Twitter? DeviantArt? When Wikipedia had blacked out - I felt NAKED. I did not realize how much losing such a resource would stun me.
Is it really hard to believe that a MALE can be raped? I’m not talking just about grown men, I’m going on about all ages. Is it hard to believe that they can feel shame? Is it hard to believe that they DID NOT WANT the sexual assault? They didn’t want to be touched or become aroused? Is it hard to…
Elder God: The Wheel of Fate must turn; all are redeemed in the cleansing agony of birth, death and rebirth. This is the Engine of life - the purifying rhythm of the universe - to which all souls are irresistibly drawn. Yours is a necessary and noble function, Raziel.
Raziel: Enough of your sermonizing - are you trying to bore me into submission? Why must this game go on? We both know what you are. You're no better than the vampires you so despise -- a voracious parasite cloaking its appetite in a shroud of righteousness. I refuse to do your will.
Elder God: I can see into your heart, Raziel. It is not your will, but cowardice that keeps you here.
Raziel: How so?
Elder God: You know what fate awaits you when you leave the underworld. That phantom weapon you bear is a constant reminder, isn't it? The Sword is waiting for you out there somewhere, and you tarry so as not to meet it.
