9:46 PM. Notice thread titled, "What I Learned Wearing My Wife's Tampons For A Week" (Salo". You freeze. Sweat trickles down your forehead as you stare numbly at the title.

"Blank OP?" you wonder. Does it matter? You are no stranger to the depravity of the modern world. A steady diet of internet media, from the incessant "SO MUCH THIS!" links to upworthy from Facebook friends you hardly know, to the roaring stream of tweets hashtagged with "yesallwomen," to the guttural ravings of supposed experts on cable "news."

The cultural output of a nation in decline flashing before your eyes like stars bursting briefly before fading into darkness. War in Syria. Latte salute. Donald Sterling. You ok sis? Michael Brown. DOMA. leaked nudes. Crimea and Ukraine. Campus rape. Adam Lanza. Redskins. Bridgegate. Eliot Rodgers. Ebola. Columbia mattress girl. Trayvon.

All the detritus of a nation crumbling and falling like leaves into a forest floor, to be devoured and consumed by scampering nothings in the night. You are a scampering nothing. You feast on trash. You can't seem to help it.

But sometimes even the most sumptuous of clickbait morsels make you pause. What stops you? You don't know. But every now and again, the low hum of content, content, content is pierced by a sudden silence and you wake up. The silence isn't really silence: it's clarity. You look around you, lift your eyes upwards, see the molding chunks some distant power deigns to feed you and feel outrage. You shake because you are a human being, and the indignity of life as an anonymous bit of stuff floating in an ocean of waste is unbearable to a being that knows it should be free.

But eventually, always, you slink back into your place, you pretend it never happened, you are comfortable.

10:10 PM. You click. And the OP is blank.

A guy putting tampons in his ass is nothing compared to “Drag Queen story hour” or CRT being taught in schools or the US officially recognizing the “X” gender on official government documents

"I will of course never know the feeling of menstruation or have to deal with it personally, but being so involved with it, I really couldn’t “claim to be a know-it-all” until I actually could say whether a product worked or not. Whenever I got the chance, I would experiment with different items to see which one held up the best. Some girl-friends would come to me asking whether I would recommend a particular product. Sometimes my advice would be good, sometimes, bad – haha – after all, I lack the vagina and period to really give them an accurate answer :P"
