      Right? If some dude on YouTube has to reassure you you’re “alpha“, you most certainly are not.

        Being insecure is fine. Being insecure and then never shutting up about how great you are and how everyone should be like you is deeply annoying. Lie to yourself if it makes you feel better; everyone does that. But don’t insist I should be part of it.

          Interesting. Yeah, don’t bother with validation from others, that is just a vulnerability for others to exploit.

      The Crit Role “RTA” bit is relevant here, I feel, and no familiarity w/ the series req’d! 🤘🏼

      (FYI: spoilers abound for any newbies looking up that years-long pay-off, but it’s worth it, IMHO.)
