I am sorry I’ve offended you. I’ll take what you said seriously and watch myself closely in the future to make sure I’m not projecting.

What I was trying to say is that I think it’s good to take extra care choosing words and approach when someone is having a hard time. Maybe you did do that, and we just disagree about the result.

I don’t know that this terseness and tone is helpful when someone is clearly feeling at a low point. Sometimes people are just reaching out because they don’t know what to do, and have lost perspective because they’ve become isolated.

I hope you’ll be okay! Maybe you can brainstorm some other solutions to have ready for the next time it happens, to keep you busy? Perhaps some magazines since they’re not too heavy and tend to be light in content as well.

Is there anyone you can call for a chat? Five minutes or so would probably help your mood if you are up to it.

Amen!

I like that the owner is an artist herself, they aren’t VC backed, and they don’t allow AI generated art. The verification process for accounts is interesting. I’ll be interested to see where it goes from here.
