>>110330it's not a matter of whether or not it's "enough", it's the wrong direction to go in to keep poking at old wounds. there's this idiotic mentality of having to atone for things, or that sweeping something under the rug is always 100% wrong. sometimes even engaging with a topic can serve no good purpose, and this is one of them.
the first and biggest thing Nyanners did wrong post-blowup was to keep the name "Nyanners". there's a stigma attached to that name, when it's only an online handle - you can discard a handle like a worn-out sweater. possibly she didn't want to lose what little brand recognition she had, even if it was bad recognition, but whatever - point is she would have done better if she'd gone for a fresh start. fuckup #1.
fuckup #2 is addressing her "former" internet presence in any way. don't do that. let it lay. digging up the past is digging open old wounds.
fuckup #3 would be trying to apologize or explain it away. what she should do is treat her situation as if her "past self" is not relevant. if she wants to do better than she used to, fine, but acting like she has to make up for it is counterproductive in comparison to spending all that time and energy on improving her performance instead. she needs to engage with her audience and her collabs, not with her bygones.
