The first question is legit - the second one is on you, either by subscribing to this community or by not filtering your feed and browsing /all.
I don’t know if you are aware, but your tone comes across as overtly hostile and dismissive; if it’s not intended i suggest trying to word your inquiries less harsh.
Hey, kudos on you for admitting it instead of continuing with the hostile tone. Self reflection like this should be more common, I think it would defuse a lot of tense situations.
Its natural that we react with aggression (or flight or freeze) when under pressure. Our monkey brains translate modern life all too easily into a mortal threat. And to be honest, my own brain translates a medium filled train car into the equivalent of a stampede, so i’ve been there more often than i’m comfortable with. No harm done; in the end, it’s just a internet forum.
