This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

I have this fantasy where I run away
Just away
That everything goes right and I’m free
I’m assuming all my disabilities just cease to exist for this to happen
I just walk away
But where always becomes a question
Where is better than here?
A tiny town where I’m the only queer person but at least there’s an actual forest nearby?
Any number of cities where I wouldn’t fit as much as here
Everything is so disgustingly predictable
And I’m sick of seeing things coming from a mile away and screaming at the locals to run and being called insane
But, thanks to the internet, the locals are everywhere
Thousands of times I’ve said what will happen to be called crazy
And this isn’t the psychic crap
Psychic was predicting the wars happening, back in 2018, with no context
I just see patterns
It’s all so
These events around me
Why does it have to be so typical?
Why can’t someone surprise me and actually do something?
And when can I stop feeling like the someone is supposed to be me when I have no power?
By the time I had wormed enough power to do enough to help I’d be one of them
Why doesn’t anyone else have this sick sense in them like things should be different?
I shouldn’t say anyone
Why don’t enough anyones feel this way?
Why is there a great wall of disinterest in anyone’s eye who could do anything?
Why is there never a successful champion of those that need?
And I don’t know how to be what you need me to be
I want to run away and be someone new who doesn’t feel these responsibilities I cannot fulfill
I feel like I’m standing before a great beast who expects me to overcome them to succeed
If you wanted it a better way why is violence written in the path that brought humanity to realisation?
Did you create us in your image and then want us to be different from you?
Suffering isn’t written in your insides
Struggle is
Danger
Violence
Your potential is our potential
Or do you wish us to be beyond you?
Should we be your successors?
Love
I’m not sure you made it
But you are made of it
Like it just had to exist because of you
I wish we could each be you
As knowing and understanding
I wish we had the compassion of a gentle breeze blowing by to touch your face so you’re not alone
Knowing that in each body is a soul that feels
Even if they’re not all the same
Understanding that each person is a reaction to their life experience
That those reactions are visceral and personal
Understood that capacity is individual
That a world with less harm would create more chances for joy
And that hatred is wrong
It’s hard
I struggle with it when words are slicing through me
I am nothing beside you
And yet you almost go less noticed than I do
Massive yet unseeable
See-able but insufficient
If I could run
I wish I could run to a place where I could meet you face to face
I wonder what face the faceless would have?

Why does everyone get to tear pieces from me and then go about their days?
I’m not over it
I say it hurts and they tell me it’s my own problem
It’s your own problem that the things I said in order to hurt you got to you
Responsibility
What even is that?
I’m being asked to take responsibility for my actions of daring to be disabled while people come into my life on the daily to tear pieces off of me
Why are they all immune?
It’s like they all have this poison and they’re spitting it everywhere
I’m saying please stop, this hurts, and they reply with “that’s your own fault”
Weakness is my fault
My weakness is my own fault
Does your heart tear daily for the struggles of others?
If my inability to defend from personal insults and attacks is a mirror of how my heart bleeds for this world
If you don’t feel things as strongly as me so my feelings are invalid
That means I get to say all your feelings which don’t come even to a percentage of what I feel mean nothing also
You feel nothing compared to me
Truly an NPC
I’m not a main character
But I’m here in this world
Self aware
Awake
Bleeding my heart into the Universe praying something works because I am an insignificant pea in a world of mattresses
But this pea knows that the mattresses are fluff brains that have led our world into disrepair and despair
So, fine, if my big emotions don’t matter
Then what the hell is that tiny ass sad excuse for an emotion you’ve got?
I wish for every person who comes into contact with me negatively to have the exact same day I do
Every day
The same dreams
The same struggles
Get a chronic illness
Lose everything and then spend your lonely days living with your parent (because you can’t afford rent) being mocked by strangers on the internet
When you’re at your last wit
I hope you never find a job again because you’re too broken to be good enough for society but not valid enough a human being for benefits to cover living
Join me in my mental anguish
You deserve it just like I do

Mixed feelings
Big feelings
Back in my old stomping grounds
This university is idyllic
Trees everywhere
Constant breeze off the water
Birds everywhere
You could forget that the world outside is a cruel place for a moment
I was forced to drop out due to poor grades due to struggling with the onset of the second chronic illness
I feel like a failure walking these grounds that I should have graduated from following my parents
My dream all my life to graduate this university like my parents did
Using it as a stepping stone to Japan
Gone
And I’m here to listen to my dad sing about Jesus for two hours
Still can’t say no to him
Still can’t disappoint him
This music has been triggering my psychosis
I just hope I make it through
Somehow I always do though
This world needs a Jesus character and my guilt complex makes me think it should have to be me
I should have to try to change the world
I don’t know what that means
I am terrified of that thought gaining a foothold
Not me fighting it off because that’s stupid and I’m not that important and I will never be that important to the world’s story
Wallowing in feelings
There are deer now
So idyllic outside
So chaotic inside
Can you help me sort myself out?

I don’t even know what I did
But she’s been speaking poison at me all day
People always tell me I’m ugly like it’ll be a shock
What’s the shock is having someone say something mean
And I already am battling
My Fox Goddess is gone
And I am drowning in Chester, and Avicii, and Ashley, and Mikaila
And people are just being mean
That’s it
Just mean
I express an opinion and they attack me as if I’ve said something vile
By saying vile things themselves
Desperate and horny to wallow amongst the lowest of human communication
I don’t like saying things that hurt people
I only say them when I’m feeling hurt myself
Trying to stop doing that
I thought I was supposed to be quick to anger and irrational
I feel beaten down right now
I wish I knew what happens when you die so I could just kill myself and not be afraid
So many people on this planet have hated me
I was commenting on how we know so many more names than our ancestors did on their tiny villages where everyone was related just a bit and sometimes a lot
My head feels so full of hate for myself
And people just keep pouring it into me
I just want the world to be a better place
But it always feels like the most powerful way I could do that is by removing myself
-
What does it mean to be alive?
What is the song that flows through me?
I am living and breathing
And persisting despite
In spite
Out of spite
Perhaps if I’m so awful the world deserves to have to deal with me
How many I’m sorrys do I have to say to these people who are suffering because of eachother?
Together, collectively, what is a civilization that requires there be those who suffer to exist?
The more I live
The more I recognise that we are in Omelas
That walking away is not so simple
That we are surrounded by that dark wretched suffering creature
That they are the homeless and the drug addicted in the streets
They are the starving bombed families and children of man induced famine
Does anyone ever free the poor thing?
The poor wretched suffering dirty thing in the dark room?
Suffering so that everyone else can be better off
Because we can’t circulate our abundance
Because we hoard it
And then bully eachother over our limited resource of relevancy
Anyone who says it doesn’t have to be this way is painted like a maniac
Why do good women die while evil men bomb civilians with “progress”
Bombs are progress
It’s like asking us not to kill eachother was too much to ask
It’s been so easy not to kill anyone all my life
Perhaps that’s a blessing
I think if we didn’t raise our children to hate other people there would be less violence
I don’t know all the answers
I just see people suffering and I know it’s wrong
When they say it’s god’s plan, they’re wrong
So many threads
So many choices
Human individuality and free will is almost a curse
No debate over whether we have it
No completely coordinated operation could have gone as off the rails as whatever this poor excuse of a civilization is
Civilised
I thought it was to mean of being civil towards eachother, the world, ourselves
What does it mean to live here? In this uncivil civilization?
What does it mean?

I rarely feel rage from the Universe
That feeling of fiery immanence
And sometimes I wonder if it’s not just an image of me from the future
Because when I knew the whole story I was enraged too
All lost loved ones who never see their loved one again
And I want to know the difference between surviving
And not
Why I managed
Why I am still here to watch them march the lights into oblivion
I stumbled upon a thought yesterday
When I did it was a moment so important I can’t forget it
That by hurting ourselves we hurt the Universe
But that was not their rage
Their rage was the marching
Their rage was the destruction of a beautiful soul
Their rage was the same why as mine
People are so cruel
I hide my cruelty in this vault
I do not let it show to people
I do not want to cause harm, no matter how hurt I am
But other humans cause harm without even being hurt themselves
People took her life
She may have lost to the disease
As I have almost lost to the disease more times than I can remember
But when people around you are helping the disease
It’s already hard enough to put up a fight against your own brain
Even I fail sometimes
But when people are helping your brain?
Rage indeed
It made me rethink the lines that are communication
What is the point in a world where the enemies are outside and inside?
I hear it
The whispers of the mind
Almost broke my silence
This world is so cruel
I do not know if reality is cruel
Or if just this reality humans have created is
Do the birds sit in the trees all day bullying eachother?
They certainly do harass eachother
Maybe this world is just based on bullying
Rest in peace sweet fox goddess
You didn’t deserve this world
And this world didn’t deserve you
