banging my head on the table

why do people have this urge to come onto other peoples' posts and make it about themselves.

the number of times ive talked about My Own Lore publicly and someones come onto My post to talk about their stuff while completely ignoring everything i said.

like do you not realize how shitty that feels. wouldnt you not want it to happen to you.

then why the FUCK do you do it to others.

#yes this is about xiv twt.#original #a recent SERIES of incidents of this nature reminded me of one that had me delete my own damn thread #i was just spitballing echo ideas and someone came in to take my ideas and start talking about their ideas and how to apply my stuff to #their character and everything witHOUT AT ALL acknowledging ANYTHING i said #(this is also the same person who i dm'd when trying to decide between two voice claims for surkie #and instead of giving feedback they just took one of them for their own character #''hey im thinking kaine or jackass'' ''oh i hadnt considered jackass for my character im gonna use that now! :)'' End Me.)#theres a common excuse that comes with a lot of these and i just. theres a point where you need to Stop using that excuse #because its such a widespread problem of people whove never been in collaborative writing spaces that dont know how to Take Turns Talking #or asking into the other person's stuff. like if you ever wonder why i stop talking to you #think for a second and maybe look back at the conversations to see how equal they are in terms of attention and consideration #at some point i just start ghosting bcuz im too exhausted to deal with people who just come onto my posts where im talking about My story #just to redirect to them and their shit and what they do its just #i already deeply feel like shit about what i write and i know the majority of the people who i talk to dont read my shit #i know of maybe 3 people who have out of How many people who've said they would but never have?#who say they like my writing but never actually touch it?#you dont need to add onto it by turning attention back to yourself when im talking to myself on my twt or tumblr.#what i decide to post about my writing is not a launching pad for you to go on about your wol and i s2g y'all need to stop #it's such assholish behavior
