Jesus Christ just fucking apologize when you say something stupid and don’t try to explain how your heart is in the right place, this is not a debate about the quality of your inner life

💯We all say stupid shit sometimes; fucking up is part of the human experience. It’s what you do next that matters. A simple, “sorry I didn’t realize X,” or “oops i didn’t know about Y and Z—that changes things!” Can go a long way & allow for you to learn/grow from a mistake instead of doubling-down.

and definitely don't use "but I'm an expert" as your defense. Don't you see how that's worse?

my heart will Never be in the right place, that's a Joad Guarantee

Holy shit FELT.
