Why I'm So Against Being Told What to Do

Nothing irritates me more than some dipshit telling me that I shouldn’t do something.“You shouldn’t say that." “You shouldn’t curse so much.” “I get tired of listening to you ramble on about ___________.”Fine. Then don’t. But this isn’t a goddamn airport. You don’t need to announce your departure. People have such an exaggerated opinion of their own importance. And I don’t need to hear it.I write opinionated things. I stand strong in my beliefs. I don’t give a damn what anyone thinks about it, if it’s not positive or agreeable. If you’re not vibing on what I’m putting into the world with my advocacy against Traitor Trump’s brand of fascism, then kindly fuck off.In today’s podcast episode, I talk about how having strong convictions serves me well in what I do as a writer and a podcaster. I’m proud of who I am and the work I do daily to effect change in a world that needs it.And I don’t need your approval. I want it, but I certainly don’t require it. I value and appreciate everyone who’s with me on this mission statement. Our Mouthy Militia means the world to me. I’ll always play to the crowd who supports what I do. And I’ll never chase every negative person down and attempt to make them a fan by changing who I am or how I do shit. If you enjoy my daily podcast, I’d love to have your support. It’s less than $5 monthly to support independent journalism, and I’d be honored to have you join our Mouthy Militia!
