Comment on Valve must address swastikas and other hate on Steam, writes US senator in a letter to Gabe Newell
Megaman_EXE@beehaw.org 1 day agoYeah “uhms” and the dreaded “like” are also an issue for me too. I would like to eliminate it from my vocabulary entirely. I make videos and live stream, and I notice it a lot when I watch playback. It’s pretty terrible. Did you have a hard time ridding them from your speech? I should try fixing that.

No, it was rather easy. I was only eleven years old though. The consciousness of it and the method to squelch it at first, without saying it out loud, helped a lot. The therapist really only highlighted it once for me. But it didn’t help that to get to this point I got traumatized by a whole class of vicious fifth graders laughing at me while I was reciting something in front of the class. 🙄

Damn yeah that’ll do it. Kids can be ruthless!
