I always get a lil bit sad whenever I see a picture of a contortedalt. While I don't know if their physical structure is permanently damaged (or if it is just a snap shot of a temporarily tragic pose), I always get a little bit sad inside, because I imagine a person with so much potential not getting a 'fair alternative life.'

Yall are probably familiar with a lot of the standard contorted alt types. I can't imagine how my life would be different if my feet both pointed inward, or if I had a permanent slouch/alt hunchback, or if I had to 'scoot around' on my back/crab walk in order 2 travel. We must be sensitive to Contorted Alts. We must embrace them, talk with them about their special needs, and do more to integrate them into our alternative society.

I'm just saying, yall--don't judge ppl only based on how they look in pictures. 'get to know them' and what's inside, because sometimes when u actually talk 2 some1, u realize that 'they listen 2 the same music as u' and that there is plenty 2 connect about. If u really want 2 'open up a meaningful conversation' it is always important 2 ask some1 what music they like.

I just wish that contorted alts could run free with the rest of us. Wish movies like Forrest Hanks were real so that no1 had 2 'suffer.' I guess 'suffering' is what makes us human after all, though. Glad I'm not a robot.
