fenchelmitheard "be the elephant you want to see in the room" earlier and gosh if that hasn't stuck with me
I'm guessing this has resonated with all of you too

Heliograph@fen ... invisibly tho i guess😅
Fish Id Wardrobe ⁂@Heliograph @fen surely the whole point of the elephant in the room is that it's not invisible. everyone can see it: the point of the phrase is that no–one is _talking_ about it.

Skibidi Suurone@fen But "they don't want me in the room, I'm the elephant" as Ren says.
I need to get myself some elephant shirts.
Paul Turnbull 🇨🇦@fen In general I don’t want to be in a room with an elephant.
Marianne@Chigaze @fen @inthehands I do, but I want people to acknowledge it's there
(I don't really, wild animals should be in the wild!)
Pau Amma@fen What does the whole sentence mean, something like "make others in the room acknowledge you in all your aspects, even those they'd rather ignore or sweep under the rug"?
Stuck HereI liked it at first but pondering on the qualities of that phrase along with life experience makes me think that it means YOU should become the problem. And problems we don't like to talk about (usually due to retribution) are bullies and abusers.
Can I opt to be the capybara in the room instead?
@MyWoolyMastadon @fen You don't need my permission, but since you asked; go ahead.
Court Cantrell does not comply@fen I misread this and thought you wanted to be an eggplant

Cairo Braga@fen this is genius by itself, but thinking about this as an artist is even more impactful, wow. thanks for sharing! 
zombiecide 馬雄@fen this made me wish I could pin somebody else's post to my profile
Teaceratops/GameDev Mum@fen I know this isn't what that means exactly, but I also read that yesterday, and now can't get this image out of my head, because YES, this is the elephant I want to be, please.
