starting to think that “if you dish it out, be prepared to take it” is a crucial corollary to my “keeping it posi” edict

maura:

taking this as a guiding principle, and boy i know that doing so is super-difficult, is important because it makes you really think about what you’re criticizing, and puzzle out the reasons that you’re taking certain things to task. and eventually you realize ”because it was lol!!!” is not an acceptable excuse—especially since you probably wouldn’t accept it when questioning your own antagonists, even on topics that are seemingly unrelated. 

the cheap shot quotient in the world might go down, sure, but that’ll only make your arrows sharper in the long run. 

There are days Maura really is my idol.
