Thanks for the tip. I do usually use the app.

Yeah I use Instagram mostly to follow artists. I don't follow Instagram personalities selling stuff. Even the political stuff I follow is from artist and organizations. Not "models".

I'm also not on Instagram every day.

So I'm not really at risk for having body or self esteem issues. Honestly never have problems with those because I'm arrogant and don't think body/looks is very important compared to things like empathy and common decency.

So I'm a hostile defensive "victim". Not sure how else to describe it.

But if I think someone is trying to manipulate me or make me a victim I kinda get really mad really fast.

Not just me but I feel the same if I see someone trying to do it to someone else.

Like one time this guy tried to mug me (sort of) and I cussed him out cause I was so angry he thought I was an easy target. The audacity. Like a full on white trash cussing out. I didn't even know I could come up with creative shit like that on the fly but I guess the magic was in me all along.

He didn't have a weapon. Was just a huge dude trying to say if I didn't give him money he was going to hurt me. A 5ft 2 woman.

How dare he!? Who tf did he think he was?

Who tf did he think I was?

Cause I'm bout to tell him.

He did in fact, walk away after saying something about me needing a leash or something.

Like, I'm pretty pleasant and friendly most of the time but I have some kind of defensive trigger when it comes to predatory people or predatory advertising (most of it is).
