All the more reason for me to have my shit locked down and not respond to people I don't know.

Like honestly I haven't had a sketchy interaction on social media for years because all my shit is private and I don't use my real name or even a picture of my face anymore.

I really wanted to believe your real name is Banana.

You don't know for sure that it isn't 😏

Hey Banana, do you want to talk about violent sex crimes that I think you've been thinking about, the ones that I've been thinking you might be thinking about doing? /s

You joke, but you don't know the level of depravity in this lil brain

Amen. Added to that I have an extremely common name (both actually) so even if someone were to find that out, they'd still have to sift my shit from all my doppelgangers'.

How many times have you faked your own death?
