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
