What is something you discussed on SW…

@SW-User now that's funny🙂

@atlantic59 you are a born stand-up -love your delivery👍🙂

That’s not fair. Even a clown has feelings and can’t be funny all of the time

@Ghostinthemachine 🫤 Ive probably said a lot.of stuff I shouldn't have over the years, hahaha.

@Nebula I hope you can take comfort in the fact you’re not alone

@Nebula

@JustNik exactly. A free form for thought. I go back to the Experience Project and just kept the same attitude. And though friends and detractors come and go -your journey remains intact as a tree grows through seasons

@JustNik I’ve shared stuff here that I haven’t with people in my real life. To me that seems strange, yet it makes sense. Maybe there are less consequences with opening up to people I will never meet 🤷

@Ghostinthemachine maybe along the same lines of why I become a social butterfly in an elevator full of strangers. 😂 I know what makes a difference for me here - like the fact that the possibility someone might read it forces me to look at it more closely and try to be at least coherent, which makes it more effective for me than journaling, as well as the fact that no one has to read it since I don’t like the sensation of holding someone hostage. I like that this place has all sorts so I don’t feel the need to be any particular sort myself, and it helps tremendously that it’s just thoughts I don’t have to make sound with which is where I’m most comfortable. I think any trepidation over meeting anyone or being more “real life” with anyone is just built in with me rather than a result of what I say here. I’m not at all sure I could ignore being visible and just be, which I would expect would be extra disappointing to anyone talking to me from here where I have SO many words. Obviously. 🙄😂

@itsok I’m sure we all have at one point or another

That’s quite impressive@Jenny1234

So you’ve never written something or expressed a thought or opinion you wish you hadn’t?@sstronaut

@Ghostinthemachine I regret the reaction it got, but I had no control over the reaction... if people want to purposely take it a negative way or direction, I have no control over it.

@sstronaut sometimes we won’t know what kind of reaction our words will get, and sometimes we know exactly how to trigger someone

Wait for it....wait for it....@ninalanyon

Muting is a good tool to save yourself some regrets @CBarson

@atlantic59 I don’t think this place could turn you half gay, but maybe it’s helped discover a side of you that was always there

@Ghostinthemachine I'm looking forward to:'going behind'

Good luck with that @atlantic59

@bijouxbroussard I think we can all learn, both online and real life, to take a moment, a breath, before writing and/or responding

That is really good.

@bijouxbroussard

I’ll take that as a “no...for you that’s impossible” 😁@SW-User

@SW-User That puts you way ahead of many of us. 😅

I’m no better than anyone ma’am 🌹

I’ve just learned by now who cares and who doesn’t @bijouxbroussard

@SW-User your conscience is clear

I hope she was at least a “she” and not a “he” 😕@DDonde

I’m sorry this happened to you @DDonde

@Ghostinthemachine I won’t make that mistake again though

@iamonfire696 lesson learned, hopefully

@Ghostinthemachine definitely learned, won’t be letting anyone in ever again

@HotPizza71 some people's insensitivities

@HotPizza71 I’ve been guilty of the “flippant comment” as well, and I didn’t mind being called out on it either
