i created a rule for myself that i can only post subtweets at least a month after i write them

which has made my life. truly so much better.

not only do half of them die in my drafts (good. they probably shouldn& #39;t have been sent)

but it also means that i can avoid inadvertently hurting people if i& #39;m reacting to something that is a reaction to something else

bc things get warped! it happens!

posting subtweets live means i monitor them + the timeline for hours after to be responsible & make sure I didn& #39;t miss critical information & don& #39;t direct harm unto the wrong people.

but posting it weeks later means nobody knows who ticked me off, and i lose less time of my life to the doomscroll, and there& #39;s no one else& #39;s chatter influencing my opinions.

you don& #39;t have to live your digital life this way!!!

but it& #39;s made mine a lot better. so if you& #39;re tired & being reactionary is draining you. maybe this will help. if the convo is important, it will still be relevant a month later https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💛" title="Gelbes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Gelbes Herz"> (except donation links. post those now.)

(oh my god i realize the timing of this thread is bad and y& #39;all are subtweeting something. i do not know what but i assume it is for good reason and i support you. i trust y& #39;all& #39;s discretion for when your voice is needed or not!! lmfao i am a clown)
