despite everything, it's still matt @elementnumber4610/9/2023, 6:26 PM

how do people share things they've written/made without their brain making up a guy that gets mad at them about it

I hesitate to actually use the term "rejection sensitive dysphoria" to describe myself (not out of disapproval of the term so much as wondering if it's even meaningful as a term for me) but boy am I dysphoriating some rejection sensitivity over trying to show anyone any of my ongoing work on Reverie

#certified matt palladium moments #you'd think the easiest part would be at least showing it to my partners but instead here I am wringing my hands #"is it ready to show anyone?" how do I know? I'm only the one who's writing it #my brain is a machine that turns concepts into self-flagellation

I've found, in general, unless you're super popular (like a microcelebrity) or it's exceedingly fucking awful (like. If you somehow managed to make the protagonist Racist McSlurrington, Chief Grinder-Upper Of Disabled Gay Babies), the only people who are going to bother interacting with your art are people who enjoy it! If anyone finds it boring or irksome they're more likely to just scroll away than drop into the comments and tell you to go to hell. That's what's made me a little happier about posting online. That and I just avoid reddit and TikTok since those platforms get you 14 year old ghouls who like to be edgy for edgy sake
