I want purple glitter sweatshirts that say “Raging Inferno of Fucking Fabulousness” for us all. LOVE this post and all the fucks within. Does anyone tell Mark Manson he swears too much - doubt it. My son’s kindergarten art teacher once told him he used too much glitter. His response, “too much glitter? Like that’s a thing.” Shine on!

You know, I'm sure people do tell him that, in fact. But I guarantee you he doesn't care. And they probably don't expect that he would the same way people (men especially) would expect ME to comply or soften myself in response to that feedback. And I love your son!

as a fellow 'too much' person, I found a mantra that resonates - I am not intimidating. They are intimidated. Save me a seat in the Zero Fucksmobile. Let's ride!

I love that mantra too; was told to me a few years back and has stuck with me ever since!

This is my first newsletter since signing up and I already can’t wait until the next. I already see myself in that Zerofucksmobile with the my girl gang top down saying fuck you if you think I’m too much. I’ve been told that my whole life, teased since I was a kid but now I live in my truth and it’s so powerful. 💨 LEGOO!!!

Ok. I admit it. Total girl crush on you right now. This is so frighteningly on target I lack the words to provide the appropriate plaudits (and anyway, I'm on deadline on a big-deal-project so, you know...)

This is great stuff. And it got me on-side with the "dear fuckers" concept. Which initially I was a little wary of. I mean maybe the author ... has some kind of a problem. But I entertained all the fuckers and fucking nonetheless because ... well, sometimes you just have to shut up and listen for a bit before jumping in and judging. So my understanding now is that all of this fucking name-calling is a quite legitimate response to the vast swathe of moronic ideas and judgment that passes for normal society and acceptable "conversation". And which some people, by virtue of physicality, personality, gender, ethnicity, etc, end up being subject to in vast (unfair) quantity. Calling that stuff the pile of harmful fucking crap that it is ... is indeed the right thing to do. So good on you Amber for expressing it :) First class worthy rant!
