the internet equivalent of screaming into a pillow. I'm very stressed out but my roommate is sleeping

Several roommates ago I had one who used to fill a pillowcase with Styrofoam takeout containers to scream into, the Styrofoam would absorb the sound so I and his 41 other roommates wouldn't hear anything. He had a severe allergic reaction to the leftover peanut sauce in a styrofoam pad Thai container in his pillowcase once and had to be moved to an apartment in Memphis. He's a big anti nut activist now, he recently organized the largest no nut November rally but everyone seemed to think it was about not masturbating. It really discouraged him that something he was so passionate about like eradicating nuts from the earth was co-opted by people who didn't want to ejaculate for some odd reason.

He's a lawyer in Paraguay now working on a big case against trees to get them to stop making nuts. Here's to hoping he's successful!

What's the online equivalent of meeting up in the woods at night to scream?
