i have this problem sometimes where i say things i don't believe in order to keep the conversation going smoothly but then i trap myself when the fake position i've concocted is internally inconsistent
my AniList setup is comf:
* mnemonic in my uLauncher (think dmenu): "a [title]"
queries anilist api for anime's url, and opens in my browser. also works as mpv script from a file
* Ctrl+Alt+A global keybinding to open my profile
* custom browser search engine
i’m scared to speak, if i open my mouth i worry ill just scream in anguish. do not think, do not feel, you can’t change it anyway. best to ignore it, right?
i've felt myself become a lot less curious and critical lately. i just don't have the energy or willpower to intentionally introduce any more conflict into my life

i tend to have rather black-and-white thinking when it comes to respect for people, and i can oscillate rather violently.
it’s like bpd for a particular bundle of features, and it just so happens that a lot flows from that
insanely niche complaint but i don’t like when people speak as if Williams and Geuss are doing the same thing. G is obviously acquainted with W and was excited by his work at one point, but in terms of method and content they could not diverge more greatly.
