Mastodon is small enough that I don't feel as weird rambling here as I do on other sites. Some combination of "hardly anyone will see this, it doesn't matter" and "It's quiet around here so people won't mind if what I'm saying isn't that interesting."

When I first started online blogging, back on OpenDiary in 1999 or whatever, I wrote whatever popped into my head.

But at some point, I became self-conscious about posting to my own feed, in LJ or Twitter. I ... still haven't decided if that's a good thing or not.

Because some of the filter is "this isn't that interesting to me", and if it doesn't interest me, I don't really need to share it, right?

But sometimes I wonder if Inner Critic is wrong about how judgey Future Me is. Maybe she'd want to be able to look back and read my everyday thoughts.
