I think I have a poor grip on a lot of my emotions, but in a way that is pretty easy to hide and/or downplay.
Something to talk to a therapist about.

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, glitches can be used to keep Flavio as a follower. If Mario enters the 8-bit Easter egg room with him, he will assume the role of Mario's partner. As such, this can be used to make Flavio e.g. spin, drag Mario into the shadows, or explode.

I Like Me, Charlie Brown. My Wife Likes Me.
Many Who Die Deserve Life. Can You Give It to Them, Charlie Brown?
Okay. Yes. We’re bored now. We’re all bored. But has it ever occurred to you, Charlie Brown, that the process which creates this boredom that we see in the world now may very well be a self-perpetuating unconscious form of brainwashing created by a world totalitarian government based on money?

This month is almost certainly gonna be a REALLY bad one, I’m a bit terrified, and any early help would mean the absolute world to me, seriously.
Thank you, and lots of love and gratitude.

Why would I expect myself to remember that? Of all the junk piled in there, why even be sure that I didn't throw that nugget away?

I realize this could be read by some people as "look at how thoughtful I am", and I assure you it should be read as "I really liked this artwork and so I'm mad".
I was so excited to repost some truly amazing Deltarune fanart I saw linked in a Discord thread, and then they went and called Kris a boy in the alt text. (deflating balloon noise)
