Their inevitable reply is “real love is telling people the truth about sin and hell” and whatever but this is only one of the reasons why I’ll be a C.S. Lewis stan until I die because they supposedly love him and I can never stop thinking about what he writes about this in The Problem of Pain

Fascinating. I’m trying to download my Twitter archive right now and it’s asking me to re-input my password and I’m putting in what I know is my password and it’s not accepting it. And it seems like I’m not the only person that’s happening to.
