    I wouldn’t be able to stand up for others as effectively if I hadn’t been at least somewhat hardened by the bullshit and bullying by now.

    Unfortunately HTFU is valuable advice in a lot of blue collar spheres. When I give it I typically caveat that it’s only a shell, and you have to remember how to take it off.

        I’m stealing some of these, but guessing from OP context it’s probably Harden The Fuck Up.

        Edit: Also, I wanna see a logo for the Hawk Tuah Feminist Union. Like, really badly.

          How did I miss it? I just tell the new guys to look at my scars and decide if they want to look like that.
