Personally, I feel truly lucky that we have such a valuable source of support in the anon post every month. Students get to ask questions they might be too embarrassed to bring up in person, and get some straight answers for once. Not to mention it's totally healthy to get everything off your chest and vent. I always think the sun shines a little brighter over Gooseberry the morning after an anonymous post... but maybe that's just me.

Also, whoever invented the self-inking quill was a genius.

Uh, no. As much fun as it is to watch the ouroboros-like feeding frenzy, I don't really see the point of anonymity. People should just say what they think. Why be embarrassed of your opinion unless you know it sucks? And if you know it sucks, why is that your opinion? It's pretty stupid.

It's a back and forth. Some if it's really nice and can be a good platform to see how people might react to things before you tell them. Like how I tested the waters with telling people I'm trans.

But yeah some of it is shitty. It honestly got me a little mad but not because of me. They were insulting the whole team and THAT bothered me.

Wait, that was you? Wow. Holy fuck.

[ ... ] You know, I think you should just tell everyone and let the shitty people embarrass themselves in public. This is Gooseberry. I can think no less than three angry bisexuals who would love to eat the jerks for breakfast.

Relax about it. We've had a good season in a close year. Faye says half of Coppertale is ready to explode.

Yeah that was me.

I know. I plan on it. At the time I was scared, I was bullied a lot growing up and I mean, I lost my family over it. So coming out was terrifying. A few people know already, so I'm slowing getting there.

I KNOW. They are even conspiring with Ebonhide about it. It's fantastic.

That's pretty fucked up. Parents like that don't deserve kids anyway. Cool that you're being, like open and stuff now, though. I know it's harder than I make it sound.

Oh yeah, I heard about that. I hope that means they bring a challenge. Ebonhide, too. Bet you 10 bucks I can make Quayle cry after the today's game.

They really don't. And thanks, I'm pretty happy about it. This place is kind of a great place for being open about stuff. Only like, 2% of the population are awful.

LOL I mean I like Ulysses but I won't turn down a bet to make him cry. You're on!

Nice.

Hey, don't think this means I'm over the captain thing. Just because I didn't complain about it last night doesn't mean I won't complain about it again at practice.

I'd rather you do it to my face than be some anonymous andy too much of a baby to say it where it actually matters.

You have full permission to bad mouth my captaining skills if we lose today.

Perfect, I wouldn't have it any other way.
