Or have I failed to improve? Just trying to get a discussion going.

This might sound meaner than intended, but maybe we should just have one catch-all thread (stickied, of course) devoted to the topic of Yukaself?

Nah, didn't sound mean.

You know what? I'd like that, lol. And sorry.

Yuka, this is beginning to be a bit... I dunno how to describe this right... I get that you're grappling with your personality issues and you're trying to use feedback from us to help with that, but I think this might work better if you use the Private Message feature to ask people you know are willing to help you keep yourself in check.

really, you should be speaking to a therapist about your personal issues. they will be able to help you far more effectively than a bunch of internet randos.

You should be more like everyone else here and on most of the internet Yuka- complete sociopaths who don't give a fuck about the feelings of others. ;)

No.

Could you not mention your discord people and people you know ever again?

It pains me to say, not a good look. I hate when people say that.

Negative anecdotes about people who won't be here to defend themselves from your life is not a good look.

Stick to criticizing groups and important / famous people.

You haven't impressed me, no. Threads like this don't help either.

I was literally just scrolling, seeing how many topics were yours and thinking, "This dude needs to take it down several notches."

You comment a lot. I get it, I fell down a hole of commenting over on Fark today, I am on the politics tab a bunch and occasionally post a ton on a topic that I find myself particularly informed on, because political science was my field of study. But I think that people in general are too glib online and respond too often and to too many different points. Everybody needs to chill.

I think you need to start a blog or some other writing project, where you can write out more complex ideas and put them somewhere you can just reference and know that you have said your piece on the topic. That is what I did years ago and it has allowed me to take what would be super long comment sprees on a topic and instead make it into something I have thought out, read up on, and made a statement about.

No one ever has to read my blog, I do not expect anyone to even tho I post links to new entries on a thread here. But, much like a journal/diary it is more for my mental cleansing to just get it off my mind. Blasting threads is not nearly as fulfilling, even with the added social component.

That all being said, I do not have a negative opinion of you beyond the internet-equivalent-to-a-motor-mouth.
