Comment on I never understood what it was people did on Twitter. I understand it even less now that it is X.
yakko@feddit.uk 1 day agoIt wasn’t list on me, I was just agreeing from my own perspective. I wish I could be above it all like you, and that’s not sarcastic. I’m more individualistic and self-contained than almost anyone I know - to the point that it does alienate me somewhat - but I still get a frisson from public speaking, and I still seek approval from the masses online. In Trek terms I think I’d be happier if I was purely Spock, but I’ve got just enough Kirk in me to know what I’m missing.

I have seen you around and I usually like your contributions but you really seem to misinterprete what I said here.

Well thanks, and apologies. It sounded like you were saying that the entire idea of presenting yourself to an audience for social approval is alien to you. Looking back I’m not sure what the takeaway should have been. I’ll go make coffee and try to wake up.

It being alien to me does not mean I am above it.

Ah, that’s the miscue. Haha, that’s too true though. There’s a lot about humanity I just refuse to understand.
