I stand by what I typed

[Image Description: A “handshake meme” with three clasped hands poorly drawn over in MS Paint. One hand has a red sleeve and a light gray arm and is labeled “Edward Elric.” A second hand has a gray arm and a dark gray hand with two bands, labeled “Alphonse Elric.” The third hand is dark gray in color with a brown sleeve, titled “Gary Goodspeed.” The text underneath the hands is labeled “Deliberately burning own house down as children.” End description.]

Burning your house down both as a symbol of resolve to move forward and as a symbol of defiance to people in the past who hurt you seems really cathartic, but alas, things like “public safety” and “arson laws” exist.

[Image ID: A yellow poster with two eyes being feature prominently. A device below the eyes is spraying water into them. The text beneath reads “Bradley” with a company’s icon and URL displayed. End description.]
