 I'd like to apologize to everyone I've ever interacted with in the past. It
 was unfair of me to interact with you, and I will do my best to not hurt you
 again in that way.

 I'm sorry I didn't mean to be upsetting! I'll try and be more considerate. If
 everyone agrees there's never anything to talk about besides how great
 everyone else is, and that's boring, so... I'm sorry I thought you liked what
 I was saying from the stars on my comments.

 Dear my future self: I'm sorry for all the things that I do. I hope you
 appreciate the gifts I leave you. Thank you for never giving up, and I trust
 you to take care of me and the things I care about. I'm proud of what you've
 done with me, and I'm hopeful that one day I'll be just a bit like you.

 my previous job didn't do anything to harm me. And yet I left. I let them down
 in a way they could not have expected. Which was unfair of me, but I couldn't
 resist it. I don't know what I'd do better.

 "are you helping or hurting?"
 
 I'm speaking. I'm sorry. Some works hurt some and help others.
 
 Honesty and being true to yourself is important, but there's a time and place
 for some words.
 
 I'm kinda bad with timing, if you couldn't tell...

 @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.

 I'm never remorseful for being wrong, I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings.
 
 Remorse is useless once corrected, if correction is due.

 You cannot debase me, well, you can try. But for each of my past mistakes I've
 learned from, and I can explain in detail how, when, and why.
 
 To err is to be human, and some errors are more painful than others. Believe
 me, I know.
 
 I am only as good as my lessons, the things that I've learned on the road.
 
 And I never stop learning.

 for every "I was there. I helped make it happen" we need at least a couple "I

 believe a belligerent, even if they're on the defensive.

 yeah haha that's what happens when you spin too fast. Sorry for being loud, at
 least I tried my hardest. Too bad I fell on my own, too bad there wasn't
 anyone to catch me. That's my fault, it's solely my own, but whose fault is
 the mistake of the collective? Oy I'll fall on my ass as many times as it
 takes. I'm used to it.
 
 Plus, it wouldn't have worked, and what else am I supposed to do but speak of
 the moment? I feel different now.

 @user-206 I'm sorry I made you uncomfortable - I should have put a CW:
 personal on it. I'll do better next time (if that's why it bothered you)
 
 you're right, it's easy to dream of massive sweeping changes but small
 incremental measurable and actionable change is often how things get done in a
 stable system.
