“Yeah but when I tried it it didn’t work me for uwu *farts*”

They’re the most insufferable when they genuinely think that when you share a negative or quote on quote “offensive” opinion that applies to them and they truly believe in their rotten little hearts that once they say that ur take makes the shoe fit then it will magically change your opinion. No honey, if the shoe fits then you just got to wear it now don’t yah?

“But- but I don’t like that!” Womp womp wear it loser.

On today’s episode of “what issues will we unpack today”, we spoke about my nonconscious mimicry of people I end up having feelings for. Now I feel like this is true to an extent, but another issue I have is that I genuinely seem to always have an excuse for my behaviours. Now I’m stuck juggling between is my excuse valid, or is it just validating my own self destruction in order to make myself feel better in the moment to avoid the uncomfortable truth of myself? In the famous words of Shakespeare, now that is the question!

Now, just off the top of my dome, I would say it probably has to do with a lack of self worth and the fact that I deeply hate and undervalue myself as a person 😛

I also weirdly feel the need to give a massive shoutout to one of my all time favourite characters, Zuko from ATLA, who decided to be a better person and work on himself, and took a lot of shit on the chin and never excused his past actions. Strange connection from me but hey ho, my mind thought of him and I feel inspired.

Anyways, going to go read some articles about ‘the chameleon affect’ to try understand it more and see if I can pinpoint exactly why my subconscious figuratively, arguably literally, strips my own self identity in order to appeal to the masses. Wish me luck!
