“LISTENING TO ANYTHING IN PUBLIC WITH YOUR VOLUME ON.
This includes TikTok, YouTube, social media, FaceTiming, and anything with your phone on speaker.
No one gives a crap what media youre consuming.
Airports especially seem to attract this in droves as if earbuds or headphones dont exist.
If I can hear your phone, you are getting The Glare.
Learn to adjust to polite society.”

You dont get to judge that what Im doing must not be important.
I could be reading emails from work.
I could be reading the news.
I could be texting with a friend or family member.
If someone looks engaged with their phone, ask if its okay to interrupt first.”

For example, don’t ask questions like: ‘Where are your parents?’
‘Why did they give you up?’
‘Do you see your adoptive parents as your ‘real parents?’
‘Do you want to find your ‘real parents?’
‘Are you happy or grateful you were adopted?'"
