The August Ames story is some messy, heartbreaking shit. I was just listening to her on a podcast (it’s OK, I’m safe), and she sounded like a genuinely nice girl that had dragged herself through some ugly shit. To have such a young life snuffed by a combination of depression and Twitter is so futile and pointless.
I hope it helps people continue to realise just how dangerous and damaging the internet is to interpersonal relationships. We need to figure this shit out quickly because it’s already way out of hand.
