I talked myself into a hole at work today because I explained an opinion poorly and then clarified poorly so I've decided my only chance at participating in society is to be stupid
#whenever someone directly asks me my opinion about something i just cannot lie and it puts me in so many bad positions#bc i am a queer leftist in a catholic conservative town so just abt every opinion i have they do NOT want to hear#so im thinking about taking up a new hobby: lying.#if someone asks me my opinion abt something i will say that i dont know enough to have an opinion regardless of how much i know abt it#it doesnt matter if they ask me questions about something i know up down or sideways#it doesnt matter if theyll think im stupid for saying i dont know a lot abt it#im so fucking tired of walking on eggshells at work and trying to be myself at the same time so ive decided i will just do neither#i am stupid. i dont know politics i dont know much abt queer culture i dont know much about feminism or abortion rights etc etc#i dont know enough about that to have an opinion#will they be able to tell im lying? yes. do i care? no. will they be able to prove it? absolutely not.#if someone says ''i dont know enough to confidently have an opinion'' what kind of jackass is going to be like#accusing you of lying or being actually confrontational about it. this is a win win#i can shut people up by not knowing what they're talking about AND i can avoid butting heads#bc if i was 100% honest abt my political opinions at my workplace i would have been (illegally) fired ages ago#im like. 5% honest and even that is getting me into trouble#ive gotta get out of this fucking town#but for now: i am unopinionated and slow. yes i am efficient at my job but its not like anyone can't tell im bad at socializing anyways#mouth: zipped#vent#to be safe idk
