"Keeping comments turned off is one way to block out 'anyone who might feel the need to tell me to "go die in a hole ho" while I'm having my coffee at nine in the morning'."

"I'm not going to let anyone make me feel like I'm not good enough. I'm going to be confident in who I am."

"I haven't thought about their experience too much."

"People are going to judge you anyway, so you might as well do what you want."

"Something can be about me…and it can still be none of my business."
