BASING WHAT YOU SAY OFF OF THE PREVIOUS STATEMENT

I‘ve been thinking about this a lot recently. I don’t know if this is just different speaking styles but I find it awkward when people don’t acknowledge what you say. like you say something and their response is on topic but kind of disconnected to what you said. it’s like they just want to say what they want to say and gloss over your statement as opposed to forming a response based off of what you just said. it makes me feel like they’re not actually listening to what I’m saying and it makes me feel awkward.

I’m a culprit of this sometimes!! I try to check myself and go back to what they said in my response a lot of the time as it’s a trait I do not appreciate

Saying “what“ or “tell me more about that” when you don‘t Understand someone

Because if not you just feel like a fucking idiot pretending you know something that you don‘t which is often haunting!

mickey 17

I watched a free screening of Mickey 17 and wow it was amazing, Bong Joon-Ho has slayed again. It was funny, it was dramatic, the casting was perfect. I will be thinking of this movie for a while and I will def watch it again.

taking a sociology class

I am a woman in STEM but I decided to take a class called sociology of gender and I really like that it makes me think more critically about both my experiences and the world outside of myself. also lowkey giving me more confidence because, you’re right, it’s not my fault‼
