a post.
been awhile, hasnt it, tumblr.
i have a fair amount of followers, half of which are probably old spam and porn accounts, so i doubt anyone will read this and i doubt anyone cares. venting, self indulgence, i guess.
im not sure if im back. i hope not. not to sound condescending, but im trying to spend my time doing meaningful and purposeful stuff. tumblr is just another social media app that sucks up my time when procrastinating. but i might try to get back into art, and tumblr is maybe the best place to put that, so.... idfk.
i came back once, fleetingly, when white diamond was revealed- knowing tumblr was my best place for content and info and craving it. same goes for right now. i just finished the homestuck epilogues and needed to see others thoughts, some content, i need it for my own catharsis.
ill give my hot take on the epilogues. im sure you could already tell what my opinion is from the posts ive shared. to my relief, this seems to what the majority of others are feeling, too (based on my scrolling through the homestuck epilogue tag for a few hours). they were fucking awful. felt like an edgelord's "pain is the epitome of human emotion" fanfic. it solidified my feeling that hussie no longer cares about homestuck. no, it confirmed to me that he violently LOATHES homestuck, and perhaps even (or especially) its fanbase.
i always thought homestuck would be the most important thing to me. it was, ever since i started reading it 6 or so years ago. there will never be anything that even comes close to what homestuck was for me. it was the only thing that kept me alive through some of the hardest parts of my childhood. i made some great friends at the time because of it (not that any of them stuck around). i was planning on doing homestuck cosplays for the rest of my cosplay existence, to prove that homestuck was still my #1. i wanted to get homestuck tattoos once i was free of debt!
but the ending of homestuck left me bitter. imo, the fandoms bullshit and the hiveswap fuckery left no love in hussies heart for his creation. he wanted it over, and just ended it. but nobody was satisfied with that of course, including me. so i was ecstatic to hear there would be an epilogue. but as weeks, months, years went by with nothing... i began to accept that wed probably never get epilogues. id just love homestuck for what it was, be salty about the ending, and that was that.
then, they came.
reading the epilogue tags, i thought they were a joke, just as many others did. it sounded like every sensitive subject that could ever be tagged was in there, including shit that just seemed ludicrous. but i persisted, like a fool, desperate for the sburb-logo hole on my heart to be filled.
the prologue already gave me so many red flags. my husband had hope, liked where it was going. a huge time skip, ten years we just have to accept went by. all of the characters had drifted apart so bad it was jarring. johns depression and mistakes and regret was daunting. everything felt so off.
and it only got worse. i started with candy. i was confused that thered even be the option all written out for john to stay. at first, i thought i was going to get some good ship shit. rosemary was the only good thing about candy. johnroxy started, took the fuck off, then just... it all fell apart. not a singe character consistently behaved in a way that felt like a natural progression of the characters we followed for so many years. what was the point of jane becoming trumphilter? to angstily show the duality of man? what was the point of all of the weird ass sex? it just feels like such a forced thing, like "oh, everyones grown up now! gotta fuck, and dont you dare even THINK any of it is going to be vanilla fluff and not.... anything but that...."
im not usually one to get upset over content that most find triggering, unless its real or shown in a very real way. but, for example, i honestly felt sick when dirk killed himself. i could go on about candy but it just felt like there was so much bait for a semblance of happiness, just to make it all as bad as possible.
meat was worse. hastily attempting to tie up plot points (like lord english) while also making dirk akuma homura...
also, apparently the author of family never ends had a hand in this? ive never been one for fan fiction, but for some reason i read that one, and it fucked me up. bad. i had the worst bout of depression and even suicidal thoughts for the first time in a while because of that fic. so, it feels like hussie wanted to recruit some ruthless-ass people to make something to intentionally hurt the people who demanded so much of him for a work he clearly hates now.
i... i think i dont like homestuck anymore, EXCLUSIVELY because of this. it feels like im throwing away one of the biggest parts of myself. it hurts so much, i feel so, SO betrayed. i would rather hussie have just announced he no longer had passion for homestuck, give us a shitty .txt file of a true ending (or the gist of one), and have left it there. but i guess that wouldnt have made him money now that viz bought the franchise.
i think, i will not come back to tumblr. it hurts. i had plenty of reasons for leaving, including everyone dipping out of homestuck. and i have other interests now that just dont align with the tumblr ive made and the followers i have (not like, core shit like lgbt+ rights or anything, im just really into health/fitness and particularly nutrition and i doubt my followers signed up for that plot twist). without homestuck, its even more just a painful past that haunts me here.
thanks for everything, if anyone ever even reads this. it was fun while it lasted.

Iā€™m sorry this blog has been so dead-feeling and sporadic for a while now. Not that anyone probably cares, but if any of my followers somehow still enjoy following me, Iā€™m sorry to you all. (tmi health issues below)
I havenā€™t ā€œupdatedā€ in a long while, mostly because I donā€™t feel like Iā€™m on the verge of dying anymore, like I did all throughout 2017 to maybe halfway through 2018; my health has been pretty stable for a while now. But itā€™s almost like once my thoughts didnā€™t have to be preoccupied with constant terror and depression of the worst kind 24/7, now itā€™s made room for other things to take hold of me. I donā€™t have panic attacks anymore (at least that I know of; I definitely had one the other night, though), but I have mental anxiety more than ever about really random and ridiculous things, and intrusive thoughts. Iā€™ve gotten a lot of writing done but at the same time feel more unproductive than ever; Iā€™ve always had bad executive dysfunction, but for the last couple months itā€™s felt worse. Iā€™ve nearly dropped off of drawing entirely; I wish I did it more, but Iā€™ll never be good enough and itā€™ll never get enough attention to feel like itā€™s worth the exhaustion it takes. And I probably have actual depression, if I didnā€™t before then I probably definitely do now; Iā€™ve started to be able to tell the difference in my moods between days, where I feel really invigorated and into something and wanting to do something, and when I feel really down and canā€™t bring myself to do anything I mean even more than usual lol and feel like I want to cry sometimes for no reason.
I donā€™t feel as passionate about stuff anymore, which is probably a BIG WARNING SIGN cause Iā€™ve heard other people say this, but yeah. Iā€™m constantly feeling like I should goĀ ā€œgive myself a break from writingā€, so I just end up playing small, shorty video games that donā€™t hold my attention very well, instead of working on my backlog of big games that I know are gonna keep me busy for a while each once I start them... otherwise I just stay at my computer thinking that surely Iā€™ll feel like writing something else soon, because I know deep down I want to work on filling my remaining ideas, and I know I can because I haveĀ been steadily uploading the last few months, but then Iā€™ll just end up sitting here doing nothing in the end. Or if I get lucky, write. But it just feels like literally everything I do is happening at a snailā€™s pace now, for no reason. Getting through anime episodes now is tedious, at least for seasonal anime that Iā€™m just trying out and not stuff I already know Iā€™ll love. Keeping up with manga is hard too, Iā€™m so behind on so many series, except for MHA because the chapters are short and weekly instead of monthly, which somehow helps. I like to read at night before sleeping, but I usually fall asleep so quickly after laying down, itā€™s frustrating. And none of this should matter because no one cares but me but I canā€™t stand it, especially when my anxiety is constantly making me worried about how long my lifespan is gonna be and that I need to hurry up and do shit quicker. :))))))
All of those mental health diagnoses are just speculation though, since I havenā€™t been officially looked at by anyone, cause we donā€™t know where to find anyone. Maybe adhd meds would help me, but who knows when Iā€™ll be able to try any if I do, because Iā€™m already taking so many physical health meds that my parents are always wary about adding unnecessary ones, especially since weā€™re so uneducated when it comes to the delicacies of mental health meds.
My health problem has morphed into a swallowing problem; I have extra saliva and mucus that getsĀ ā€œstuckā€ and wonā€™t go down all the way unless I swallow a lot, and I canā€™t drink or eat anything anymore, which is literally the most agonizing thing in the world, Iā€™m so thirsty (Iā€™m still getting nutrition; please donā€™t ask how). Iā€™ve done a couple tests and theyā€™ve been fine, so no one knows whatā€™s going on, and my parents have been lax about setting up to go to a better hospital because things arenā€™t urgent anymore like they used to be now that I have a reflux med. I mean, at least as far as I know; who tf knows whatā€™s happening to me I also have leg nerve pain from sitting in a wheelchair all day every day, which is nothing new at all, itā€™s been a thing for years, but lately itā€™s been absolutely agonizing because Iā€™m too underweight to pad my body and my wheelchair isnā€™t a good fit for me and getting the people to take the steps to change things takes literal months because theyā€™re slow and lazy as molasses. My back is constantly tight too, to varying degrees, sometimes better, and I donā€™t know what that is, maybe anxiety, but thatā€™s frustrating too cause it makes breathing ever so harder. So yeah, Iā€™m not fearing for my life anymore, at least consciously, but things are still hard and Iā€™m so tired that theyā€™re still like this and theyā€™re just making my mental health worse. I spend most days not doing anything, suffering in some small annoying way thatā€™s enough to keep me from being able to focus on anything, and going to the relief of bed, to repeat forever.
Iā€™m realizing that Iā€™m just lonely. Iā€™m so lonely. Everything is so different now than it was even three years ago; so many of my online friends are gone, even if weā€™re still mutuals on tumblr; the first online community I ever joined that first got me into online friendships and animanga has long since disbanded. Various mutuals on here I never really talked to but was used to seeing in my activity are gone. Other friends have changed slightly, though theyā€™re still dear to me; I have new ones that are dear to me too, but yet others that I donā€™t feel a real connection with, and it feels like weā€™re just surface level acquaintances. One of my two closest and best of friends, one of the first friends I ever made years ago, abandoned me late last year, and to be honest I donā€™t know why. I did hurt her, but I feel confident in saying that it wasnā€™t to a degree that was unforgivable, or at least wasnā€™t worthy of a chance to redeem myself, so.... yeah, I donā€™t know why. She had changed a lot by that point, shut down a lot, and when I set her off and she left, it was as if all that time weā€™d spent so close together meant absolutely nothing anymore, had never happened... I donā€™t understand it. It hurts so much. I tried to contact her in other ways multiple times, by letter and by email, apologizing profusely, and she ignored all of them. It hurts and Iā€™ve thought about it so much, I know I havenā€™t truly coped with it yet, but have only tried to ignore it, and I desperately need someone to tell me that I didnā€™t do anything wrong (at least, not wrong enough for that reaction). Cause right now I just still hate myself for it deep down, am so worried about her, worried about how she is right now, wish I knew what she was thinking/thought then, all because of my mistake..... I donā€™t understand, I donā€™t know what to do, and it makes me think that all this time Iā€™ve been a lot more terrible of a person than Iā€™ve ever known, and that Iā€™ll just keep accidentally pushing people away by trying to get too close, just like her.
She abandoned me, the fewĀ ā€œadult friendsā€ Iā€™ve had irl abandoned me and never talk to me anymore once they stopped working for us, so I guess Iā€™m just cursed this way. The main thing is that Iā€™m seeking and craving interactions with people that no one I know want to have; I love analyzing fiction and getting into the meta and all that stuff, said online friend who abandoned me and I were on nearly the same wavelength when it came to this kind of thing, and we talked for hours and hours about different series and what made them work and why they didnā€™t work, getting real Deep(tm), and going against popular fandom opinions we thought were wrong (cause we were/are in the minority who disagreed with some of the praise for certain big name series lmao) lol, and that was my normal for a few years... and to have all that be gone is so alien. We were going to collab on a fic together, and that barely got off the ground before she left. Iā€™m dying to have it all back so much, but none of my other friends are into that kind of discussion like she was, and I feel like a piece of shit for acting like theyā€™reĀ ā€œlesserā€ than her for that, but thatā€™s basically how Iā€™m unintentionally acting.... and I hate myself for it. But I canā€™t help it; I donā€™t know what to do. I just know Iā€™m bursting at the seams practically with so much I want to talk about and do that I canā€™t and Iā€™m so lonely and itā€™s all so frustrating and depressing and Iā€™m so tired of it all. So aimless and tired and bored and unmotivated and afraid and wishing more than ever that I had 2016 back, before everything became so fucked up in so many ways.
Iā€™m so sorry, anyone whoā€™s friends with me now reading this; youā€™re all so important to me and I donā€™t mean to act like youā€™re not. Iā€™m just sorry Iā€™m such a mess. I need a new purpose, but I donā€™t know what that is. Maybe I should use this blog to write more meta posts, besides that one. Maybe I should actually post my fics here, although as everyone on tumblr knows, fics get even less notes than art does, so even though my MHA fics get a decent amount of attention as it is, maybe it wouldnā€™t matter if I put them here too. Is it obvious Iā€™m just a lazy greedy lonely ass craving validation and attention and friendship at this point.......... lol......... Iā€™m just a wreck, I feel so suppressed and aimless, trapped in a life thatā€™s too suffocating and alone for me. And I donā€™t know how long I and this blog are going to stay this way, so........ Iā€™m sorry, anyone who cares.
Thank you, everyone whoā€™s followed me and still follow me; I appreciate you all so much, and havenā€™t forgotten a single one of you early ones Iā€™ve talked to before. Hopefully eventually this blog will feel more alive again, eventually........ eventually.............. whenever I find what it is I need, somehow. In the meantime Iā€™ll just keep reblogging MHA posts like a broken record I guess lol.
