Harry has talked about not sharing his personal life. He said he did it in the past and gave away too much of himself and that didn't add anything positive to his life. That he protects himself by setting boundaries and that he compartmentalizes his work and personal life. And this tells me he puts himself and his mental well being ahead of his work. Not sharing himself is very much a choice.

Of course it's a choice anon. And it would be great if Harry put his mental wellbeing ahead of his work anon. I'm not at all convinced that he does.
I think the key thing you're missing - and what Howard Stern mentions at the end - is that not revealing anything about himself serves a career purpose as well as a personal one.
Harry has made it clear that he's really scared of saying anything. I think a lot of him talking about reading Jon Ronson's So You've Been Publicly Shamed and feeling more free to say things and then saying absolutely nothing. I think there's every reason to think he's scared of saying anything substantive for both personal and career reasons.
There's nothing wrong with how Harry is trying to navigate what is basically an intolerable situation. But I think it's naive to cast it as Harry choosing his personal life over his career - and a sign that he's fine.

And are the bi lesbians coming into your space in the room with us, right now?
well i searched up the tags for my identity and didn't seek them out. i searched lesbian. and got bombarded with "lesbians who like men are valid uwu" so yeah, I'd say so.
as someone who's had to work very hard to overcome my internalized homophobia and comphet and who identified as bisexual bc of it for years...i know what its like to straddle that point where you're not sure, it was a very stressful time. but there are so many other labels you could use, that are already widely used! sapphic! wlw! queer! i don't get whats hard about not disrespecting two entire communities, who struggle with the myths bi lesbians are enforcing.
"oh but are you Really gay?"
"lesbians should just to wait for the right man"
"oh bisexuals are just either gay or straight"
"oh ig theyre secretly just gay"
like. how are you this dense. these labels are different today For A Reason.

lead balloon (the tumblr post that saved me)
if this comic resonated with you, it would mean the world to me if you donated to this palestinian family's escape fund.
--
no creative notes because this isn't that kind of comic.
I know I don’t owe any of you anything but I still felt compelled to write about my long term absence. And I feel far enough away from the dangerous spot I was in to be able to make this comic. I have a therapist now, and she agreed that making this could be a very cathartic gesture, and the start of properly leaving these thoughts behind me. I am still, at seemingly random times, blindsided by fleeting desires to kill myself. They’re always passing urges, but it’s disarming, and uncomfortable. I worry sometimes that my brain’s spent so long thinking only about suicide that it’s forgotten how to think about anything else. Like, now that I've opened that door for myself, I'll never be able to fully shut it again. But I’m trying my best to encourage my mind in other directions. We'll see how that goes.
I am still donating all proceeds from my store to Palestinian causes. So far, I've donated over $15K, not including donations coming from my own pocket or the fundraising streams which jointly raised around $10K. In the time since I made my initial post about where this money would be going, the focus has shifted from aid organisations to directly donating to escape funds.
If you'd like to do the same, you can look at Operation Olive Branch, which hosts hundreds of Palestinian escape funds or donate to Safebow, which has helped facilitate the safe crossing and securing of important medical procedures for over 150 at-risk palestinians since the beginning of the genocide.

I like to think that Vulcans who come to understand that Humans just can’t try to process emotions the same way as them, it’s just healthiest to let it out in harmless ways, decide that venting and stuff should be taken just as seriously as Vulcan’s meditation time, and will encourage the Humans around them to complain about what’s upsetting them
People who are used to aloof Vulcans who avoid Humans at all cost running into one comforting a Human
“-and then they said my cheesecake was subpar, and they didn’t even bring a dish!!!”
“The purpose of this event was that every participant brings a food item of sorts, correct?”
“Yeah!!”
“And they did not follow this rule while insulting dishes that were brought?”
“Mostly just my dish but yeah >:(“
“How illogical”
“That’s what I’m saying!!!”
