the message is self-evident, but seeing obvious advice rephrased by someone they respect can help many people stop ignoring and internalize it.

I'm reminded of people who ignored "clean your room" every time their parents told them until Jordan Peterson said it.

I should have spent the day away from reddit but I didn't, and actually this was the best experience I've had using the site in a while!

there's significantly less politics, I discovered some cool new subreddits due to so many of the biggest communities being closed, threads were pleasantly concise, and I just felt like it was a much more mentally healthy scrolling experience.

it's too bad that this is all going to end in a couple days and it'll be back to normal except without rif.
