people whose brand is being the Asshole who voices what others are "scared to admit" are funny to me because in my experience, what people are too "scared to admit" isn't typically aggro, cruel shit but sincere feelings that make them vulnerable to rejection or scrutiny by others

not to sound like a tool but when i get the sense that my intensity/passion/sincerity is making someone behave cruelly to me or talk behind my back, i kind of imagine them like a poorly socialized dog going apeshit because they saw someone wearing a hat for the first time

having one of those days where i remember how much of a miracle it is to write and be among writers and to have my stuff published and read by even a few people. it's an easy thing to take for granted most of the time, tbh, but it's a fucking blessing and that bears remembering.
