A short motivational YouTube monologue (by Rebeccah Silence) urging listeners to prioritize their own needs and stop diminishing themselves to make others comfortable. The speaker rejects social norms that praise self-sacrifice and calls for refusing to 'squash' oneself, stop running on fumes, and stop back-burnering personal needs.

Let other people be uncomfortable and confronted watching you, prioritize you, because I'm telling you, there's no other person out there that has the right to tell you you should be squashing yourself like a bug and your needs and back burnering you and running on fumes and being a drained battery because that somehow glorified and, you know, in our society, valued. I think it's crazy. I think it's insane to dumb it down, betray yourself, give you up, back burner you so that other people can feel like you're being the right type of person.
