@ebel I tell people I have imposter syndrome sometimes, though it feels like a lie in private, and I feel like I don't really have it.

@ebel@moytura.org Honestly, all you need to do to kill your imposter syndrome is think about the blithering, demented idiot who is currently POTUS. Then go out and do whatever the hell you like.
