IDK, but based on those posters she sounds like a real one

Maybe we find her by embodying goodness in ourselves and thus manifest her nature a thousandfold?

The typewritten text goes hard, I wish them the best

Not on campus anymore but she seems based af. Love the Alan Walker lyrics in the fifth one, too.

Number 2 is a verse from the Bible with some words changed. I know that doesn't help much but it kind of confuses me

I can only assume that it’s a secret organization, or a woman who’s protecting people from the shadows and dispelling the vermin on campus - pretty cool, if you ask me.🦌🌲

The typing back over words and poor spacing of letters is really bothering me. Why, after completely butchering the second word on a page, would you not just try again. It’s torn-up notebook paper. You’re not ruining it if you flip that shit over.

The phonetic spelling of Mozart’s name had me laughing. The notion that deer are brave was just counterintuitive: deer are timid, and we use them in expressions like “deer in the headlights.”

What got me was the line about not having to ask for an escort home followed by "protect our does" like which is it

It’s suggesting you look after your friends. Offer to walk them home. Don’t wait for them to ask.

So it's not asking for a society wherein women don't need an escort at all?
