I loom over my inbox awaiting replies. I hunger for responses.

I look at my own posts only on occasion.

I do it all the time. I probably spend about 50% of the time I spend on this app reading my own posts and thinking like “Wow, this guy is saying exactly what I’m thinking!”

sometimes i do

I don’t actively go into my post history but every once in a while on other social media someone will necro post and I will go look through my dunks and laugh. Like the other day someone commented on a post where someone accused me of being a child and I said “If I am a child then your mom is a pedophile.”

no… and a lot of the time i’m like… goddamn im an idiot

Just last night I was going through my whole camera roll and my insta archive and realized i cant kill myself

For some reason, I get self-conscious reading through my post history. But if it’s a post I very recently made or haven’t published yet? I will compulsively reread to check for issues so I can edit or, if it’s an occasion where I think I did an especially good job, enjoy how it reads.

The writer/editor brain in me (or maybe it’s perfectionism) has a hard time simply writing something and hitting send. More so in a forum format, where miscommunications can drag out and take longer to correct; there’s nothing quite like the feeling of posting something and coming back hours later to a stream of hatred to make one second-guess phrasing. I’m probably most thinking of twitter in that regard…

Depends on the post. Usually no

No I hate it lol

Yes, I do love it, while at the same time, I hate myself for it. Sometimes I think I said a pretty good thing, and most of the time I think I am an idiot.

I look at it in amazement (probably because of the anonymity, I’m being a bit more genuine here)
