I don’t open my tumblr one day and Jakob shuts down his blog. Goddammit!

I don’t always agree with what he has to say, or how he says it, but he certainly doesn’t deserve all the vitriol he’s been victim to, especially as of late. Don’t people have other things to do than shoot people down on their blogs?

I’m sure it’s been said many times before by people much more eloquent than me, but: Go outside. Take a few pictures. Eat some ice cream. There’s a real world out there, complete with people perpetrating actual crimes who deserve your disdain and hatred far more than Mr. Lodwick.

Well said Loreal.

It’s late, and I think the worst of this shitstorm has passed but wow, did it ever leave a bad taste in my mouth. Also? Attacking people for how they look is the lowest form of criticism, and just plain gross.To come back later and chirp that it was meant in a friendly way is even more gross.

I wish him well.
