      I look at it like this: I’ve seen, heard and read enough shit in my 48 years to know when I’m better off without certain types of people. So I block them. I’ll never have to read a comment and see that username again and go, “oh, this fucker again… ugh”

      In no way do I suffer from this approach and lose out on some enlightenment or critical information.its a win, win.

      Worst case scenario is I blocked a decent person, but I’ll never know and it still won’t make my life any less fulfilling.

      And for the record, I dont spend my days blocking people. Maybe four to six people a month (on Reddit), probably far less here, because most users seem decently grounded in comparison, with far less emotional issues.

      But fuck yeah, I do love the block function when someone gives me that bad energy moment. It’s liberating.
