Please please please practice critical thinking skills and media literacy.

This is embarrassing.

Do better. Be critical. Be thorough.

    Bold assertion. I personally take several minutes per sentence because I'm neurotic as fuck and hate being wrong.

        I’m guessing you just watched my real time editing process lol.

        I did. And I relate. And why I never post on mobile lol

            The worst is when you catch your mistakes, and while in the edit window, you get three replies quoting the impulsive rant portion and it's like, "Fuuuuuuck me"

        Occasionally i’ll scroll through my past post and comments to reread replies and see what got upvotes. If i notice grammatical errors or bad phrasing (of which there are often both) ill fix it even if it’s months old.

      My usual technique is to lay in bed with my laptop and try to respond to a post but accidentally fall asleep no more than a couple words into it, and then experience a timeless series of seemingly eternal night terrors, only to wake up and discover I was only out for 3 minutes, but somehow 20 paragraphs of effortshit has been typed out as if summoned out of the void.
