this MLK day, consider actually giving Letter from a Birmingham Jail a read. It's not long, and MLK criminally gets mostly digested through trite soundbites and quotrs. His thoughts deserve to be read and understood in full.

@BoxSystem@plural.cafe @FirstProgenitor @witchfynder_finder ah yes i too cannot spell any word in the english language
Because it's a skill that's missing in our society, here's how to apologize.
1) Acknowledge harm. "I f'd up." 2) State what you did that was wrong, in a way that shows you understand the harm done.
3) Express regret
4) Say what you're going to change to not cause this harm again
5) Listen.
Don't ask the hurt person for *anything.* It's up to them to accept or not, if they choose.
Don't be clever. Be plain & simple.
