      The only people I’ve told were individually rationalized as part of them understanding the potential risks, benefits, and expectations associated with the magnitude of presence I had in their life. In general, most are better off if I don’t communicate freely, including myself.

      If someone provides an acceptable-to-me explanation of why it’d benefit society for me to tell this audience that story, then I will.

          potentially embellished to fake

          Imagine my perspective knowing such is the audience’s perception.

          Some nuance is better kept outside the digital world and individualized.
