#Today (or I guess yesterday. I'm queueing this on Sunday and it'll post on Monday) Etoiles was talking about it

Green Gay Ninja's "team full of strong opinionated leaders" ran into a lot of communication issues on Day 1, but nobody has more experience wrangling loud rowdy people than FitMC.

#FitMC #QSMP #Etoiles #ForeverPlayerG #Forever Player #Purgatory #Forever #Green Team #As someone who's worked as an educator and someone who Cannot Stand People Talking Over Each Other and/or Not Listening To Each Other #This was so hard for me to listen to I started skipping through the VOD because it was frustrating me to a ridiculous degree #but Fit doing this made me laugh out loud #I've definitely been in his shoes before #Q #Poor Etoiles they picked him as team leader but nobody listens to him #Today (or I guess yesterday. I'm queueing this on Sunday and it'll post on Monday) Etoiles was talking about it #and he said he was a bit shy / quiet when they elected him as leader #and he kinda laughed at how he constantly got talked over #meanwhile I'm just like [SEETHES] #It's not actually THAT big of a deal I just have hangups about being spoken over which makes me sensitive seeing it happen to others #regardless of the circumstance #But it is literally Not That Big of a deal here. They're all friends just hanging out going on a roadtrip in Purgatory together lmao #Anyways #When I occasionally catch myself being frustrated over non-issues like this I just give myself a vibe check like: #[Etoiles voice] ''Relaaaaaaaax bro; it's not that deep'' #A bit of a tangent but #I think a lot (not all but a lot) of fandom discourse stems from people projecting their personal feelings onto situations #''Well if *I* was in this character's place I'd feel [insert emotion]'' #''Therefore my perspective on this matter is objectively correct because I have experience with [whatever] so I know how they'd feel'' #I think we all need to remember to vibe check ourselves and take a step back occasionally. Not all experiences are universal #Fit
