affirmations for the bus:

- it’s ok to be on-time

- you’re allowed to be at the stop at the time you’re meant to be there

- people won’t be upset if, when you get to the bus stop, you stop and let them onto the bus instead of making direct eye contact and driving away without stopping at the bus stop

- please

thanks for making time for an interview for this managerial role overseeing the microsoft 365 team. what really stood out to us about you - and what rocketed you to the top of our list - was that part in your cover letter where you described yourself as a “sick fuck” who “would stop at nothing to see the microsoft 365 suite of products reduced to a functionless, pale imitation of their 2007-era predecessors” and that the user should “toil fruitlessly as they navigate a completely bewildering interface while being forced to ruminate on how they own nothing and instead rent increasingly expensive useless vapor.” when would you be available to start?

Listen, I understand the purpose of ads. Your website/game/whatever costs money to operate. I'm using it for free so I have to look at a few ads. Fine. Your restaurant has a new item, and you want to get the word out. Fine. Whatever.

But do we have to play these games? Do you really need to do the tiny X button and the "skip ad in 5 seconds" and the pop-ups and the fucking Temu ads that last like a minute and automatically bring you to their site even when you don't touch the screen and the mobile game ads that try to trick you into thinking they're finished and do we really need the commercials to be twice as loud as the show and do we really need billboards that are TV screens and does every corporation need to play mind games with us, like I'm going to buy their phone because they believe in the importance of family?

It's not the ads that I hate, it's the ad culture. If it was just a banner ad or two. If it was just a 15 second ad that introduced the product and then left me alone. If it was just a poster on a wall. Maybe I wouldn't mind so much. But instead, I feel like every single company is stretching me out like a rubber band to see how much I can stand before I snap.

How is it is supposed to work: your emotions are a response to your situation and surroundings. It is OK to feel the emotion. Now take that emotion and use your logical brain to decide which parts of the emotion fit the facts of the situation and which do not and why, and how you’re going to respond to said emotions (which is what tweet said, and what therapists say)

How people seem to interpret it: any emotional reaction is perfectly fine and I am not responsible for what I do out of emotion.

The “How it is supposed to work” part is really great, took me long enough and a therapist to figure that.

People use the “my feelings are valid” as a weapon to hurt others and not be held accountable all in the same sweeping statement.

i’ve warmed up significantly towards the concept of small talk ever since i learned that its sole purpose is to make friendly noises.

as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now.”

small talk isn’t to get to know a person. it’s just a greeting to affirm you’re buddies in the universe.

i am motivated by wanting the other person to know i am friendly, so i have gotten pretty decent at small talk when i used to hate it.

When I was a kid and would go hiking with my dad and sibling on vacation, every time we would pass another group, my dad would do the smile and nod and “hey”. And then after we’d turned a corner, he would say more quietly, “I must make friendly social noises so they do not eat my young” and my sib and I would crack up laughing.

Gotta remember that we’re mammals under it all.
