Rec | THE BACKSPACE BUTTON

🔙

I wrote out a whole tweet abt my feelings about [redacted] and then decided my opinion didn't matter and I backspaced the whole thing. It's like when Oprah said to write a letter to a person and then throw it the fuck out.

The damn return button

I hate being mid comment and hitting return when I’m trying to hit backspace and boom — suddenly my half finished comment is posted up. Is there anyway to walk that one back? It’s been consistently annoying

leaving comment typos

Periodically I'll spot that I made a typo—misspelling, missed word—in a comment on PI.FYI. Normally I'd fix or correct something like that. But since there's no edit feature for comments, my only option is to delete and repost the comment. But I've decided to let my comments remain: errors and all. There's a willful choice in that decision that is a small reflection of a broader way I'm wanting to live: this is me—imperfections and stumbles and bruises and limps—and I'm not going to airbrush over it There's freedom in that!
