OTF 7: I’m Sorry and I Have Changed
Three nights ago I was on Twitter, as I commonly am on Thursday nights. I decided to go through a deep dive of my own tweets. I was sure I would come across some old Trey gold— genius anecdotes about popular culture that would make me smile and reminisce about a sixteen year old Trey I tend to never think about. And while there were some witty and well worded one liners, I came across a tweet that truly threw me for a loop.
I want to explicitly state that I do not agree with what I tweeted in May of 2017.
While I am still heavily considering just deleting the tweet, it feels wrong in my gut to just sweep this under the rug. I am shocked to think that I would ever endorse something like this. Similar to the way I have used words in the past to heal from hurt feelings I, selfishly, seek to reclaim the power over this tweet that does not align with who I am. I choose to own up to it.
I hope it is very obvious that the kid who tweeted this does not represent the beliefs and knowledge I have now.
P.S. my website doesnt let me publish images so I will have to include a hyperlink.
