The whole capitalizing ‘my’ thing is a really weird vibe that comes off ironically narcissistic. Also who starts an article with a digit? Does Medium no longer have editors?
Honestly it kind of reminds me of a thread that popped up here a few weeks ago.
I am not sure Medium ever had editors. I think they got a good reputation because a lot of professional writers wrote blogs and articles on there, but AFAIK it has always been a blog site.
I use capitalised neopronouns because I’m transgender and nonbinary. I’m sure you didn’t realise that, or else you wouldn’t have complained about My pronouns. And yes, I am a person living with narcissistic personality disorder. You can psychoanalyse a potential connection between My gender and My disability if you wish, but please don’t feel the need to share your opinion of My psychiatric history, as I’ve heard, and thought about, it all before. Chicken, egg, it doesn’t matter to anyone else but Me, because it doesn’t hurt anyone except perhaps Me. That is if people are not understanding of My gender identity.
I have seen worse - e.g. when Donald Trump had some “lawyers” write up a brief to defend his actions during the second of two impeachment trials, which somehow misspelled the USA as “Unites States of America”. It makes sense that he misspells his own name and such on social media - we don’t bother as much with that stuff here (though in that case the site was the one that at the time was still called Twitter), but in a legal briefing for such an important issue, which will go into the permanent record of the the entire nation, and indeed the world, we normally expect better!?
Hence, the attitude of the Greek philosophy of stoicism comes to mind: we cannot control others, but damnit we should control ourselves! e.g. when we see such things, pay attention to how they signal us that the content is click bait that even the author didn’t put much effort into, therefore we should not either:-P.
Which only makes me love Innuendo Studios all the harder, by virtue of its being so rare to have such depths and clarity of thought as well as superb execution.
