For me, I don't feel like I'm not a point yet where I have enough experience to know which topics should be off the table. Right now, I'm working on setting boundaries around the interactions I have in response to what I say
Stuff like:
"No, I do not agree with your interpretation of what I said/did."
"No, I will not elaborate on that."
"No, I will not answer that question unless you help me understand why you're asking it."
Once I get good at those, I suspect it'll be more obvious which topics are simply too much trouble.
You may have given me an idea. Maybe I can think more about how to figure out which topics could/should be on the table. I have an intuitive sense of it for myself and the people I work with closely, but i haven't really considered it lately in a way that might be useful to people i don't interact with regularly.
Ooh, I've also been limiting comments because if someone has literally no context for what I'm saying, I don't want to hear their feedback at all. It's too confusing right now

Good call, man. Sounds like the right approach.
