First and current impressions of Snow White

[PoetPhilosopher]

I'd like to hear people's first and current impressions of me, too.

I'm not expecting gushing praise per se, but I've tried to work hard from where I once was, which was a post around 2018-2019 where I said something which I later realized was like defending toxic masculinity - which is something I didn't want to do.

You seemed friendly, and like a lot of fun! I decided I'd overlook your fondness for Avril Lavigne, and talk with you anyways.

Sometimes I find you hard to predict or 'read'. I wonder if you're prone to retiring to 'headspace' sometimes. (No judgement, I do this, too.) You also seem to be able to remember posts and interactions way beyond what I think most can.

I can 'get' myself being hard to read. I mean, I'd be classified as liberal in the US, but I sometimes question whether my beliefs align more with some of the non-Abrahamic ideas that come out of Japan.

Also, sometimes these days, I go into a bit of a 'professionalism' mode when talking high level concepts, it's kind of a learned thing that sometimes I have to snap myself out of. While working with a few businesses, they taught me some ideas about professionalism, which I don't think really work all that well in the real world and every-day necessarily, but that I feel sometimes has uses for conveying and describing abstract, high level thoughts. So sometimes I get into that 'mode' of thinking, for better or worse.

My first impression of you was that you were an extroverted young woman in her early 20s who liked to have a fun time.

My current impression of you is that you are presently analytical and apparently have some college experience.

Like what?

Like what?

I once heard someone here describe some of the beliefs in Japan as being "Like conservatism if it never learned about the Abrahamic God or the Bible". So that means focused on things like theology, and preserving things and society, without the fascination with far right politics, or even fascination with things like banning Harry Potter (back when conservatives here in the US thought it should be banned). I've also noticed the Japanese seem to at times, want to roll their own creativity and perceptions into theological concepts (or at least Western theological concepts), which is why you see stories like half-demon humans, etc. I don't mind that, either.

That makes sense to me. I have some conservative bits about me, but I never use the term, because 'conservative' is bridled with politics and Abrahamic religion anymore, and I want nothing to do with right wing politics(and I'll be fair, I'm not thrilled with the left wing politics, either) and I'm certainly far from Abrahamic.

Interesting stuff!

I can see that perception, however I will say that since I got off estrogen, I may be a little bit less extroverted now.

My current impression of you is that you are presently analytical and apparently have some college experience.

I went to college a long time ago, but much of the stuff I've learned today was from working with businesses and receiving a bit of mentoring from higher-ups.

@Snow White

First
Something of a tech nerd... in a nice way

Current
Definitely a tech nerd... And again in a nice way

Loved the book, hated the movie:

 

[Revoltingest]

Friendly & engaging.

My first impression of you was that you were a very interesting person and I'd like to get to know you better.

That hasn't really changed, except now I know that I like your music tastes.

Top notch. (Sorry for the overlong exposition).
