People concerned with how alpha they are are so silly. So hilariously unaware that they are broadcasting just how deeply insecure they are.

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

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.)

Silly question, but why is being insecure bad again?

[–] Jesus_666@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

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.
