Text- respond whenever

Call- attention now

It’s a call to responsibility, and I hate those

    What do you fear?

    That you're not up to the task?

    That you'll dissapoint your peers?

    Pick up that phone and face your fears

    For you will never miss

    the paths you failed on

    but the ones you never dared to tread.

    I’ve basically ceased listening to music, so if this is a song, it’s fallen out of memory.

    But anyway, It’s not fear, it’s exasperation at my limited daily free time being sectioned by someone else. The comic doesn’t reflect my personal feelings. (Pretty poem or lyrics)

    In what world do you live that time sensitivity is never a thing? Also it's just a helluva lot easier sometimes to talk for one minute instead of write for 10 and still get the wrong tone.

    Never a thing? It seems like you’re conflating what I have to do with what I want to do. I want freedom to answer at the time of my choosing. Doesn’t mean I’ll always get it, but that’s what I prefer

    Well the way you expressed your preference sounds like you don't accept time sensitivity as a valid thing.

    If you take 10 minutes to write, there is something wrong ig also, calls never last only 1 minute

    Lotta pretending not to get the point to justify a phobia, but you do you.

    Or that your point was fucking stupid and they were rightfully discounting it.

    No one believes your ideals are real. You are a fraud.

    Lol projection much?

    Just because you have no ideals doesn't mean others who do are frauds.

    Ps being afraid of answering the phone is not a disability. I've had crippling social anxiety my whole life and don't love phone calls either but I don't make it my personality or anyone else's problem. If someone calls me I either answer or not. I don't seek approval for it being a tiny inconvenience (5 minutes of awkwardness at worst) I want to overblow.

    Not even gonna bother with this ableist rant.

    "I can do it fine so others struggling must be overblowing it for attention". You sound exactly like the right wing chuds you claim to oppose. Typical centrist

    Your actions speak louder than your empty words and accusations.

    Can always decline the call and text "I'll call you back in x minutes," giving you full control over your own life

    But you still don't know what they wanted, so the extra thinking time isn't worth anything. (Unless we're comparing to those nut jobs that just text "hey" and then wait without continuing to describe their matter)
