 the fact that the content warnings are part of the body text means that if you
 write the body first but use EXACTLY EVERY CHARACTER like I've been doing
 (most of the time, unless I'm interrupted)
 
 like... it won't even give me a break to delete. so there's no room for
 content-warnings, which ideally would be written at the beginning before
 starting a thought, but as you can see mine tend to... wander. it's like I'm
 living 15 different lives all at once, and they crisscross and go yonder. it's
 wilding, it's empowering, it's strange and it's confusing, but through
 consideration we develop new learnings and onward our future does
 
 = so = anyway, I apologize, sincerely and deeply, if my words hurt you. I'm
 sorry for what you thought, and I'm sorry for how it made you feel. I'm going
 to try reserving a certain amount of characters before I start writing, so
 maybe that'll help.

 through to the tomorrow, and brave the depths of the spaces around you.
 live, be honorable and diligent and fair, give kindness and thanks, celebrate
 those for who you care. accept transgresses of others, give them grace until
 they hurt you to save face. or, until you're both ready to be done.
 
 I would not swing a battleaxe at anyone I did know even in [mortal/merry] jest,
 I would use my hands, and only until they said no.
 
 similarly, it makes no sense to punish a wounded foe. the treaty of versailles
 and it's consequences still shape the human race. if you war for catharsis,
 maybe the stakes are too high.
 
 I am a princess no matter where I am.
 
 I own no souls, I am responsible for my own and to some extent my cat, and I
 want to cherish the people around me.
 
 I own no land, nor demense, for I am a human of the humans. my soul is the same
 as yours. what I claim, anyone could claim, and probably most of those would
 deserve it.

 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.

 today I had someone ask me for an apology. They've asked several times before,
 and each time I've only been able to give them a half-apology - I apologized
 for being persistent, but not for being impulsive, and that wasn't good enough.
 
 I can't help being impulsive! I'm adventurous! I crave excitement and joy!
 
 But I'm sorry that I pushed him too hard. I'm sorry I hurt him. And...
 apparently that's not good enough. He doesn't want me in his life, he can't
 fucking let it go. And he calls me selfish. Says I don't respect him, based on
 one night out of 5 years where I tried too hard to get him to enjoy life.
 
 I'm sorry I can't fix your depression, guy, but like, at least I tried. You
 could have at least tried the things I suggested. You could have at least
 tried to follow my advice.
 
 whatever.
 
 it was literally just a walk in the park
 
 ... anyway I am often wrong. I often correct my past self. I always apologize
 for hurting people, but I never apologize for doing what I believe is right.

 @user-119 @autisticadvocacy I couldn't live with myself if I wasn't the
 kindest, most heartfelt person I could be. The simplest mistake has me in
 sorrow. When I hurt someone's feelings I can't help but try to rectify what
 harms I caused and apologize and console for those I cannot fix. I try to be
 gracious and welcoming to all hearts and minds, and when presented with
 arguments that are contrary to my beliefs I change them. "If what you say
 about X study and Y statistic, then you're right that Z conclusion makes
 sense. I'm worried about A cause and I believe it might cause B effect, which
 would still make sense if X and Y are true. I think you might be right! And it
 would make sense that C is present still, wouldn't it?" Basically trying to
 understand another's point of view so concretely that you cannot help but
 understand their viewpoints. I'm also pretty good at understanding their
 viewpoints and changing their mind, because I can feel what's important to
 them. Empathy is like human telepathy.

 oh turns out it wasn't memory corruption as I had thought, I just got
 distracted and rewrote it in a different ui interface. you can read it in it's
 succinctity here:
 ============================
 
 I think the bottom line is, you need a better reason for [unintelligbile] than
 profits. that's greed.
 
 (was it dangerous? show me.)
 
 if the answer is "I don't make the rules" then you need to talk to someone who
 does. or, better yet, someone [else/who does] needs to listen to what you say.
 
 [by profits, she means healthcare - you can tell because it says "bile" and
 that's something that healthy people aren't all that accompanied with]
 
 ^^^ see this is usually how it comes out. it's hard to translate it into more
 relevant things but when I write narratives or long-form explanation
 discussions (being taught in schools) transmissions I tend to [--- stack
 overflow---]
 
 ^^^ see this is why I try to talk about more germane things. like costco and
 rent-a-bucket. usually it ends up being "hey who would have thought, storing
 all your stuff in a warehouse and selling your own factories's stuff in one
 warehouse unlocks unlimited life-sale potential. "no price-tag? sorry, it's
 not for sale. here I'll help you put it back." btw costco should sort their
 lines like the airport before security instead of a series of distributed
 queues. This way people wait in line while going through the last few aisles,
 like the [thing that I'm describing -> so anyways as I was saying] oh yeah
 uh there's a lot of empty space at the front of the lines in costco you know
 how in grocery stores people have that empty space to walk through right after
 that and before the cashier there's a series of stands that contain the same
 merchandise. that way, if you pass through there, which any customer will,
 you'll pass by the stuff that's small, numerous, and otherwise easily stored
 in more standardized locations.
 
 [I can be utilized to vast potential in any industry, let me at 'em] 🙂
 
 oh um, sorry where was I? I think we were talking about god or some such.
 =========================
 
 and then I came back, remembered the syncing of timing, and realized this: you
 could have stalls all the way along where the lines were. if you had half as
 many cashiers, the lines could be half as long. this way you can shop while
 you wait. this might enable shoppers to plan for things they know they have,
 if they spend more time in the consideration. A healthier pantry closet, a
 healthier home.
 
 the cold aisles should always be optional.

 Make the world a better place, whether that's by sweeping a street corner or
 helping people smile, it doesn't really matter how. What matters is the
 intention.Improve your self and your life. Do pushups, eat better, drink more
 water, spend time writing (writing is thinking), and take time to sit and
 stare at the flowers.Kill the part of yourself that cringes. Everyone's
 figuring things out and its okay to say "haha okay then"Spend time with
 animals.Make mistakes. Apologize for them. Learn from them. Stay mobile in
 your character. Develop new ways of being.

 This will never end on a note, because i always have more to say. Like this:
 
 "if you've only done something once, plan to mess it up. Practice makes
 perfect, and only perfect practice leads to perfection. But nobody's perfect,
 so just practice with good form and take it seriously while having fun and be
 relaxed. Make it normal. Make it casual, but don't forget to be professional!
 If you have lives in the balance, know what you're doing."
 
 And like, would that have been a better end to the story if i had left it
 unsaid? Maybe, who can say! But I'm not one for silence. I don't mind ruining
 the finale of my documents a bit if it means i can say things like:
 
 "diapers aren't something you can get addicted to in this game, they're part
 of the fun sometimes but sex is between two bodies."
 
 Or like:
 
 "ramen noodles love vegetables! This is why they put veggies in the bowl when
 getting ramen at a restaurant. When you buy from a shop they put dehydrated
 veggies in too which is nice of them. I love those little bits of soup!"
 
 Or like:
 
 "i don't especially care what they did or are doing in Cuba or china or Russia
 or any other Communist place. It's useful to know what things work and what
 doesn't, but that insight comes from experimentation and not study. The
 learnings of methods applied to a population are inherently related to that
 population. If you switch peoples, you might find that different methods work
 better for organizing people."
 
 I mean it's useful to know which levers you can pull and what they tend to do,
 but... Where was I? Oh sorry, got swept up in the narrative. As i was saying,
 it's important to balance thought with action. Leave too much to chance and
 your words are useless. Spend all your time volunteering and nothing changes.
 
 "hmmm i see, makes sense, imma go play video games now."
 
 Wait no just...! Ah nuts.

 "your feelings are valid, but have you considered that your feelings aren't
 actually valid because you're always wrong and nobody should ever apologize to
 you for anything because you suck and are wrong?"
 
 also,
 
 "my six digit salary isn't enough to pay for your rice and beans, but I won't
 have you eating sticks and mud, so do things you don't want to do because I
 said so."
 
 also,
 
 "I don't really "get" your art but that doesn't mean I should ever really try
 reading it. Also god forbid I actually ask for clarification like "what does
 that part mean" because I'm not actually that interested in you I just want a
 stable household so I never get traumatized again like [their childhood]"
 
 also,
 
 "yes I love you but no I don't want to play with you. you're such a cat."
 
 also,
 
 "every time you start making sense I'm going to try and derail the
 conversation so that we don't talk about kooky-dookerie because that's a
 conversation I can't win"
 
 also,
 
 sorry for venting. I mean, thanks for listeni
