You ARE your social identity, and you're never fully built! Actualization is a cycle, not an end goal. The right people/places let you share without thinking. True comfortability comes with no need for analysis. It just is! Express yourself in spaces that value you as a person, not a character.
General rule of thumb though: you're going to die whether you speak or not. Which choice brings you the most peace?

Eventually you'll die inwardly if you don't speak up

People often seem to mistake knowledge for personality or proof of intellectuality. They find it prudent to inform you that they know of this or that and they already found this idea or person or thing. But this comes out more like acknowledgement, to reveal they too acknowledge the existence of something rather than truly understanding thier stance or having any sort of perspective on it. They say all these things but sometimes it feels dire, as if trying to prove something. Now, what you say matters, but what you do counts. So, yes you may have heard of this band before, you may know global warming is on the rise and you may have thought to make that cool art piece before, but you aren't just what you believe, you are also what you do. So, please act on these thoughts, these feelings, in your everyday. Do not procrastinate on your passions, do not force a picturesque verson of yourself into someone's head. EXPRESS YOURSELF and you will no longer need to flaunt the existence of these things in your mind, for you will have already displayed them through your actions, and they will have expressed themselves subtlety through your conscious.

Know that just like you, people yearn for connection- I know everyone probably hears this too often but be you; be weird, be honest, have no filter. The people who are suited to you when you’re this version of yourself will find you.
People probably don’t think about you as much as you think, think about a random person right now for example: what was the last embarrassing thing they did that comes to your mind? Exactly. You fixate too much on yourself, the way you interact, the way you are perceived that it ruins your “unfilteredness”. Turn off your brain, compliment the first person you see that you think looks good, ask if you can be friends. do whatever.
The world is truly your oyster.

Ok guys I gotta be honest. I'm all for supporting creatives and rightfully paying people for the art that they create, but sometimes I wanna watch a 30 year old movie and I don't wanna pay the 19-whatever-the-fuck Netflix is taxing.
Take my advice. Get Brave. It's like google chrome on steroids. Go to a site like Brocoflix (i kid you not lmao) and let your heart run wild. Brave's adblocker is insane. Gone are the days of closing 30 porn pop-ups just to watch Sonic. It's game-changing

I'm sure there's an actual name for this but I'm blanking on it at the moment. I try to live under the idea that we're all one being. That in everybody is a piece of me, and in me a piece of everyone else.
I guess it's like an extrapolation of 'the golden rule'. But I think to myself like, if I was being ignorant, I'd want someone to have a conversation with me and help me understand where I was wrong. If I was having a bad day and was visibly frustrated in line, I'd want to have someone stop and ask me how I was doing.
I think most negative people are just hurt. The longer you go without talking about what's bothering you, the more bitter you get. Most people, no matter how they're acting, change when you ask them if they're ok. Most of the time (I'll admit, there's some exceptions lol) its better to be sympathetic rather than defensive.
It's easy to get heated but it takes a lot of patience to really try to understand. Stranger or not, I do my best to help rather than provoke. We've all got our bad days, but that doesn't mean we aren't deserving of compassion.
