ah, and here i was thinking your name was a reference to paul schrader's work. alas, it would've made for quite an interesting character.
don't have much to say for your demand for respect. only your cynicism. its disconcerting. you need to find ways to go about with your life that will lead you to calmer, peaceful, places. throwing slander at a community of strangers achieves the opposite. in fact, far more than the intense negativity you throw at these 'invisible' people, i'm sure you would enjoy bringing them into visibility by getting to know them. like, i presume, your cousin has. take this as a gesture of encouragement from me to you: use the technology to your advantage!
we know you matter, but you trying to prove it only devalidates it as a fact in your mind.
