like either a dumbass posting stupid shit, unfair bans, idiotic arguments, etc etc. i feel so incredibly stupid letting it affect me at all, but then also there's real feelings mixed in there because it's a real argument i give a shit about to some degree. so it's this odd double crossing where i know it's stupid but i process it as being real.

bonus points for not answering 'go outside drink water read a book' etc etc

I don't really engage with anything I don't see as a thoughtful reply made in good faith. Sometimes. But I try not to.

Similarly, have they offered something worthy of my time and consideration?

Yes, consider engaging.

No? Next.
