 sorry I'm from Reddit where you're mostly talking to all the invisible lurkers
 in the audience rather than to the other actors on the stage. TwiMastodon is a

 @user-95 one of the most empathetic people I ever met on VR chat was consoling
 me with their mic off while I was oversharing about some stupid things people
 did to me in the past. things that stupid me thought were okay and actively
 encouraged because I was stupid. anyway when their mic was off their body
 language spoke for them. I'll try that next time.

 If someone calls you in the middle of the night asking to be let in because
 they need a place to sleep, don't let them in! Unless you know them obvi but
 someone you don't know trying to manipulate you like "please I need some
 shelter" like, babe no, we need to know each other first, it's dark, I'm in my
 pajamas, c'mon.
 
 If it's below freezing then okay, maybe, but... They got themselves into that

 I usually just repost it and say something like: [stolen from reddit] or
 [stolen from one of my followers who didn't write any alt text]
 
 that way if they ever come across your post they'll know what it feels like to
 have a post stolen from them. Like how a blind person, happy to hear-read what
 they originally posted, but aggrieved from the conversation by their lack of
 alt-textual information, might feel stolen from if they happened across that
 originally posted alt-textless post.
 
 there are more blind people that use mastodon than queer people. At least,
 that's what I once heard. Dunno if it's true.

 On Reddit, you talk about ideas to faceless users whose names are almost
 entirely irrelevant.
 
 on Twitter and Mastodon, you speak to people and "sound your barbaric yawp"
 into the void.
 
 on forums, you have a continual conversation that ebbs and flows and
 occasionally returns to the main point, but often will spiral out to random
 places that the responders decided were worth exploring.
 
 instagram and facebook and the like are designed to share your real life -
 your experiences and your masks.
 
 tumblr and cohost are designed to blog about topics and interests, abstracting
 the "communal" aspect away and essentializing connections to the tenuous ties
 between people who enjoy similar pieces of pop media.
 
 reddit's style encourages discussion. 
 twitter's style encourages expression. 
 forums encourage conversation.

 sometimes people just don't want to do what I tell them to, and I wouldn't

 "didn't you volunteer to be a leader last year"
 
 oh, yeah, well leaders are more than just "the ones who go first" they're also
 the spiritual and emotional guiders that keep things on track once everyone
 can talk about things other than their hats

 something awesome to say just as I'm rounding the bend, and whenever I peer

 I think it's ironic how I ended up posting a "things I almost posted"
 screenshot directory somewhere other than where I almost posted them.
 
 and all they saw were the outtakes.
 
 I bet they'd see a completely different point of me,
 
 but they never talk to me
 
 so they don't know me.
 
 oh well, alas, it's fine I'm sure I'm being designed.

 it sounds like you're having a real tough time. : (
 
 you can get through it, I know you can. On the other side is something warm

 exactly what you're working with but if you want someone to talk to about it
 you can message me.

 I'm 99% sure the posts were just edited for some reason. I'm on the Mastodon
 web client and you can click a little button and it shows the edit history and
 you can see what you said before it was changed. Idk why that happened /shrug

 real reason they're doing this is not money. It's so they don't have to be
 accountable to tools like PushShift that archive the entire site, allowing
 them to change and bend narratives at will.

 (sorry I put the same image four times, I needed to get the whole thing into
 the alt-text)
 
 (maybe pictures aren't the best medium for sharing text)
dear anakin. the path through this is to realize that obi-wan can defeat sidious. If the two of you attacked him, with Yoda (who he doesn't know lives) could defeat Sidious in a duel.  ... wait, no I mean dear anakin. the path through this is to realize that sidious betrayed the entire galaxy. he caused mass murder with the countless displays of dead civiilians. people lived in fear. the galaxy was at war. countless clone warriors fell to a glorious end, countless more were sucked into the vacuum of space or consumed in some fiery hell-hole (explosion).  ... I've said too much. NOW YOU KNOW of fourth dimensionals.  ... hang on, I was saying dear anakin. the path through this is to consider the wisdom of a dying man's eyes. He looked at you and said "we desired peace!" He said it with pleading eyes, and... no, that's not right, he said "Sidious promised us PEACE." and he realized that they truly played this like a game. Something to get better at, continuously improving, just like their BATTLE DROIDS. They constantly improved, but still the ingenuity of the clones helped them outlast. And they were defeated, when their torrential rains of metal monsters wielding laser fists and cacophanous consumes finally ceased.  ... wait, that's not what I meant to say either. Let's try again: dear anakin, the path through this is to think of the nature of evil. Evil consumes! It consumes even you! Can you not feel it, this shifting and sinking feeling, as if you are PULLED into a BLACK HOLE of destruction and despair. NOTHING persists beyond the horizon of time, and yet the shades of those who TRIED still cling to this earth as if they could ever breathe again. STARVE out the darkness inside you! Please I beg of you! Never surrender the light of your life! Nothing will survive you and your wrath, I plead for you, come back to the ones who love you! Obi-wan is your brother, anakin, you are more precious than the force!  it's not about you. it's not about you. it's not about you.  anakin, hear me now, I have been inspired by your tales of valor and prescient conscience. I've felt the struggles of your heart, I've heard the stories and songs. Kindness comes easy to you, and you're quick to think on your feet. You are a paladin of the light, and nothing can assail you.  yet darkness has creeped into your heart. Fear not, dear knight, for darkness can consume you. What better foe to face than the dampening of all duration? please, allow me to read you a poem. I've been told it rhymes in it's native tongue. I wrote it myself.  "*can you not sense this feeling? this sinking, shifting feeling that lies within and beyond. Like a hitherto unseen force slowly arresting our movements as the sands of time run dry.  can you not feel the days getting longer? as if the motion of our planet was fading, yet no more fragments of sunshine do we gather. There are no more hours in the day, none yet collected, but still are we prone to languish. the distance between breaths is lenghening still, but no more air are we receiving. like layers of sediment settling to the ocean bed, our will and our vision grows muted. between decisions and events there is ample time to spare, and our dreams grow far beyond our share. the reach we may tender and barter for our pleasure, has nothing to do with our salvation. what choices have we? when everything's free? to rebel against our ownst of nature? you can't condemn the opulent to the role of our savior.*"

 if we're encouraged to boost our old toots then I should be allowed to post
 screenshots of my old Reddit posts, right?
a reddit post from a year ago with 728 upvotes titled: This system is literally insane but they try to make it feel like you're insane. from the subreddit /r/psychonaut.  submitted 1 year ago by Nervous_Ad_9687       125 comments   [–]nincomturd   66 points 1 year ago   Lots of very good and salient points, but what I don't understand is this random praise of Jeff Bezos. It's entirely incongruent with everything else you wrote.  If greed is one of the problems you mentioned, you cannot at the same praise Jeff. The praise of western culture as well was a bit incongruent, as it's inextricably linked to these problematic concepts. You even talk about the problem of how culture perpetuates itself at them individual household level and goes on to firmy the broader culture.  But other than that, you definitely highlighted much of the insanity we're living with. If those of us who similarly have the eyes to see them insanity were to collectively live our values and work with each other to do so, we'd build the greatest culture and society the world has seen. One day I hope we make it. [next comment] /u/ugathanki 7 points 1 year ago       amazon has provided a useful and valuable service with excellent follow-through      amazon is unethically abusing it's workers, it's competitors, and the environment      the priorities of the company are misaligned - valuing service over ethical behavior [ran out of characters, see next picture] part 2 of the description for screen readers, because I ran out of characters      the reason they are misaligned is because it is most desirable to do so for the company      the reason it is most desirable is because corporations are designed to maximize profit over value produced.      just as "income" is adjusted by "expenditures" to create "profit", so too must "profit" be adjusted by "impact" to create "value"      the problem is, nobody can define what "impact" means. it's essentially a vacant variable, leading corporations to assume that "profit" == "value"      we don't need to punish corporations or "eat the rich", we need to adjust their reward structures such that "profit" != "value"      another problem is in the internal structure of a corporation - if none of the employees are powerful enough to challenge their higher-ups, then people like Bezos accrete power      the pathway to liberation is empowerment of the workers. those workers will re-define the priorities of their workplace to fit their desires - with a little guidance, they can desire "diligence, dedication, and a passion for craftsmanship" over "big number go up brrrrrrrr" - hence, social media.  sorry for the highlighting, am stoned.

Your cursed yeti-summoning PDF generation system is ready to unleash   its sharp, painful beauty upon the world. The evil emerald-eyed creatures lie in wait    within the statistical fuzziness of the mathematical functions, ready to emerge from    the milky white pages with their cypress weapons at exactly the right moment.    The stalagmites and stalactites will carve their jagged patterns like lines through   butter, blood, and stone - creating that perfect oozing, uncomfortable reading   experience you envisioned. Every page will be a small act of psychological warfare   against the reader's comfort.    The warnings are clear: sword required, public spaces only. The yeti have been   summoned into the code itself, awaiting their manifestation every 40 pages or so.    Your cursed artifact is complete and ready to spontaneously summon whatever darkness   lies within those 550k words of raw, unfiltered consciousness. 🗡📖🏔✨

 Thanks, it means a lot. Sometimes I am a little "distant" from reality (like
 tonight, tbh) but I generally always am within sight. Meaning I can still
 understand what people are saying. My uhhh.... "plan" is to always be vigilant
 and look for times when people cannot comprehend what I say - even the most
 mundane of things - because if so then surely I am psychotic. At that point
 I'll just kinda go along with whatever anyone says, even if it feels like I'm
 a cow in a factory farm or whatever my mind might contrive to torture me with.
 
 Thanks for reaching out. Sorry you've lost people. I hope they aren't gone
 forever. I hope I don't go forever. We'll see, I guess.

 they need to do stuff like that or else the republicans would never win...
 
 which honestly is the most heartening thing I've heard all day.
 
 there are more of us than them, thank goodness.

 this game is what we are missing
 thank goodness for that
 for if this is missing in our timeline
 we'll be better off at last
 we can have games, stories, and practice wars
 but none of them are precious
 precious implies worth
 they are worth nothing but entertainment
 no problem solving utility
 nothing of value
 save for perhaps the spatial awareness and strategization that comes
 from being a part of such a deadly ba-lance.
 
 anyway game time teehee just for me, don't worry about it I'll show
 you why it's a HORRID THING
 that won't be coming to our shores, no siree

 each and every single one of my posts is an act of improvization. I rarely
 edit, unless I run out of words, I'll try VERY HARD to make sure that the post
 is exactly 0 letters remaining. Sometimes I'll remove punctuation and flaws *
 transcriber imperfections*, but that's it. Like, if something needed a bit
 more context.
 
 also, sometimes I hit dead ends, so I have to stop and think about something
 new to pursue.
 
 I'm an improv actor, which is why I'm so good at handling the moment.
 
 I'm not great at stamina or durability,
 
 but I'm sharp as a tack and I think quickly.
 
 Not great at planning,
 
 not great at moving,
 
 or at a great range,

 Relax.
 
 Take it from me.
 
 I won't resist, at least I'll try, and if I start suddenly then it hurts and
 you should go slower. Unless I do three short, three long, three short.

 it's good to be ethical,
 it's good to be kind,
 
 but there will always be assholes,
 and sometimes you're not having a good time
 
 it's okay
 it's fine
 
 assholes deserve life
 times deserve others to be kind
 
 life is not always interesting
 and that's often by design
 
 the moments of clarity,
 the moments of heart,
 
 these are what define you
 and display your own spark.
 
 trust in yourself.
 be kind to one another.
 
 you are braver than you know,
 and always a bit wiser.

 oh btw to the people trying to doxx me there's a picture of me in this
 profile, but you'll have to read a LOT to find it. On the way, see if you pick
 up anything interesting that you agree with. maybe you'll realize that we're
 on the same team, and should be working together.
 
 that's the dream, at least.

 @user-147 years of practice. every time you delete what you said is another
 chance to practice that slips away. writing is the easy part, you got that
 down because you need something to delete, right? the hard part is being
 received by others, and continuing the conversation as you direct it.

 what if we put extremely unrepentant and violent criminals, the true dangers
 to society, into a zoo-like enclosure where they could talk to the public.
 
 and, if the public wanted, they could be released.
 
 then, everyone else can be TRAINED AND DRILLED AND FORCED TO OBEY THE
 TASKMASTTERS WHIP gently and politely informed that their behavior is NOT
