We’re all dum dums, join the party 🎉! 

 Post pictures of cats, or food, or sunsets, or songs you like. I'm being serious. Those are needed and popular. 

 This is very relatable. Everything is permanently recorded here and I have a big fear of being seen as stupid. Sometimes my high IQ spits out some very inane commentary. I never like passing inaccurate information. I often hedge my bets and say equivocal opinions when I'm uncertain even when I'm feeling convinced about something on a gut level.  I've been wrong about so many things even when I'm directionally correct. It's often a challenge to speak my truth. Eyeballs everywhere get to judge my two sats of input. Can anyone else relate to that? 

 That's called self censorship  

 Very true. 

 That's one term that applies. Another term to consider is "discernment" or perhaps "discretion"? Have you ever been gunned down because you shot from the hip? I have. 

 I feel that way, often misunderstood. Perhaps I’ll learn to make memes. 

 go read some good books and youll be smart! i recomend Capitalist Realism by Mark Fisher. you can get free ebooks at Library Genisis. dont worry about it so much because everyone posting here is putting their foot in their mouth. lots of junk, but it sure is fun! 

 Thanks for the  words of encouragement! I’m up to speed on the finance and bitcoin fundamentals part, my next tasks are eventually running a node, adding paid relays here, trying not to throw my cold card out the window, and understanding more about wallets. On chain is all compatible but lightning wallets have to be like type to like type? My brain.
