So, I'm a huge reader and read a ton of books. I have a book that I adore reading and have read more times than I care to admit. The book's name is Eliza and her Monsters, by Francesca Zappia, so I highly recommend whoever happens upon this post reads it.

The user @fuckallnbs/@fucknbs-2, previously @fucknbs (see my #fucknbs tag), does all of the following to nonbinary people/supporters:
- Harasses relentlessly - Bullies - Insults - Calls slurs - Suicide-baits
In addition, he:
- Does these things to people who are minding their own business, not people who are in discourse tags - Will not stop doing it - Cannot be reasoned with or changed - Comes back with a new URL whenever banned and harasses the same people from before - Tells (nonbinary) people to kill themselves
