What if you're kind of a shitty friend on top of an introvert though. Like they invite you, and you're happy to be there, but then your over-emotional response either starts to seem sarcastic or ruins the vibes. So the next time two years later when someone dares to try again not only are you ashamed about it but your reaction is twice as bad because of it. Then everyone starts to feel so awkward that they just ghost you. Seems like at some point you should probably just decline to spare everyone the experience.
I've found that people who don't understand or enjoy media literacy or criticism also don't tend to understand the concept of an analogy/allegory, and don't want to either. Superman represents the "American Way" and can't be an immigrant and the idea that America is a nation of immigrants is not relevant in any way. Only the old statements from Bridget from Guilty Gear count and not any of the new ones that confirm she's trans. Naoto from Persona 4 and some similar stories like hers in other games can't be a commentary on social pressures around restrictive gender roles, dysphoria, and performativity simply because she ultimately still identifies as a cis woman. You can explain the nuances until you're out of breath, they will never accept the nuances.
And not a single thing about this on the front page of the other site, except a single gif about Trump fighting Elon. Because their algorithms are cooked to hide anything that potentially hurts the tech oligarchs or trump.
This reminded me that I'm still watching some subs through still existing mirrors like undelete so I don't give reddit views, and I noticed that a big 21k upvoted post on subredditdrama about /r/conservative starting to panic over whether trump even knows what he's doing was deleted. All I can imagine for why it was deleted was intervention because of this rule, I couldn't find a mod post on it, it might have been admin intervention. EDIT: There was a mod post, that it was going to stay up, but then another mod who posts in dogwhistle subs and has a tendency of removing posts from /r/conservative did. It WAS mods this time, but it's still bad actors pushing a certain outcome.
Sounds like a good way to spread avian flu, though I guess Fox News probably doesn't care about that.
Also there was an article I saw that ran the numbers, and it would take way too many chickens plus selling some of the eggs for that to break even for most families.
