This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I think that's true if you only have a handful of options, but if you have hundreds to choose from, it's easy to pick up and move elsewhere. That's the nice thing about small communities, it's easy to join multiple and then leave if a couple turn bad. But if you only have one or two, you're going to fight to fix it.
I prefer the small community form of moderation, the community ostracizes those that behave poorly, and if that doesn't work, the community moves elsewhere. That's how social relationships tend to work, and that's generally how the early internet worked. Now that everything is so centralized, things get more complicated.
