The key is to only realize you don't know the etiquette for it after you've already sent the dm
Shoutout to everyone I've dmed a non sequitur or seemingly random comment to and also sorry o7
So I gotta be daring and apologetic. Can do the latter need to practice the former as I chacha slide in there.
That strategy is responsible for some of my favorite things in my life, and also some of the biggest mistakes- which taught me some of my most important lessons.
Idk, use this strategy with caution, it's really more of a cope for my neurodivergence than real advice but idunno
I really struggle with social stuff so I just try to be as blatantly good faith as I can be in the hopes that if I fuck up it's clear it's from ignorance and brainworms not malice, and that I wanna learn. Otherwise, when I get in my head about stuff instead of just doing my best and being earnest, I just go in circles in my mind being critical until I'm paralyzed and post/ say/ do nothing because now I'm convinced I'd just fuck whatever it is up. I will always fuck up, but I'll also always strive to learn the lessons I can from that to make sure I don't fuck up the same way again
sorry for the rant :sweat:
Hey it's cool. Thanks for sharing even though it might have been tough. Some times I think when other people are confident that it's easy but it sounds like what I go through. Once again thanks again for sharing.
Thanks for reading! I'm glad it helped in some way, and thanks for being supportive <3
I've only met a few people who I truly believe were confident in themselves, everybody else was doing fake it till you make it. We love you though, and I like reading rants on this website :heart-sickle:
Maybe, might be you from a bad future. That thing we planned but never did I say do it but wear protection. Helmet might work to be on the safe side.
someone make an emote that's a big red boot about to smoosh that tiny pig please
if pigs had the capacity to perform jobs and they became police officer, they'd be bastards fit for bootsmooshing
Haven't done it and with getting this in time now I won't ever. Thanks comrade.
We all have to break two people's hearts as revenge for each time we get heartbroken, until eventually there's no hearts left to break
You're welcome
I can only speak for myself, but I am far too shy to even think about ever sending someone a DM
I got a DM on the old subreddit one time. I had posted a story about US liberals doing Russia fearmongering, and a Russian guy sent me a message asking if all Americans thought that about his country. Then he asked me some questions about Javascript.
He never said. He wanted to know what my favorite JS library was.
(I'm sorry, I really love React. NextJS is lit)
I'm thankful for almost never having my DM's being slid in. Except for one time I was sent an unsolicited dick pic in Reddit messages.
I only used DMs to ask people if they needed money after posting their hellworld horror stories.
Now I'm unemployed and broke so I can't help anymore. :sadness:
Thanks, I'm okay.
It just sucks, it was one of the few things I enjoyed doing.
Glad you're doing alright! And you're right, it does suck but don't forget: from each according to their ability comrade, rest easy and thank you for your generosity and solidarity :heart-sickle:
That's a super kind thing to do. Hope you can get on more stable ground soon comrade.
that's because us leftists flirt out in the open in the same way we always flirt with authoritarianism
my dog's been in hiding since Mayor Pete got back in the news, I'm sorry
do you want to get a lot more people to dm asking you for a picture of your dog? This is how you get people dming you asking for a picture of your dog
lazy protip: get the image in your clipboard, go to make a post on chacha, ctrl+v in the url bar and it will upload your clipboard image to the site, instead of posting it just copypaste the link it generates in the url bar and use that instead
Fuck imgur
are you stating a fact, bragging, or suggesting? you’re gonna have to be a bit more straight forward with me
