A thing about adulthood (though not exclusive to adulthood) is that now and then you will find yourself involved in a conversation in which the only truly reasonable response is to say “Even if I were a terrible person with no conscience, I would simply not admit to being a terrible person with no conscience. Out loud. Unprompted. In public.”

And then you have to decide whether to be the person who actually says it, thus taking the heat for Making A Scene

#people will really just tweet it out sometimes #and then inexplicably make YOU the bad guy for correctly observing that they really just tweeted it out!!!#how is this my fault. i truly am the most conflict averse person but then people will just SAY the wildest shit #and i know i won’t be able to look myself in the mirror if i let it pass unchallenged!#it wasn’t even political for once!!!!!#if you say ‘lbr most of us would not report child abuse if we thought we might lose our jobs over it’ then in my very very humble opinion #it is in fact you who should be held responsible for killing the conversational mood #on my gravestone they will write here lies chamerion. cursed with both social anxiety and an inability to let it go. finally died on a hill #my posts
