Third ☂ Text

Many of you seem to be unhappy.

We don't all necessarily want you to be happy, but acceptance and adaptation to your situation would be a start. The only question that remains is: how?

It is clear to us that your species resolves many issues through communication. Unfortunately, none of us understand the human psyche as clearly as others of your species, and so I leave it to you to communicate with and to help one another.

You may consider this post an open forum in which you can discuss what's been bothering you. In turn, I will conceal your identities, so that you may help one another without preconceived biases. If you'd like to reveal yourselves to one another, the option is there, but unnecessary.

Heal. Recover.

I'll leave you to it.

cant change where you came from

id say 'just where youre going' but nobodys going anywhere here so

[anon]

[unknowable]

I guess that's the problem. I'd really like to. But yeah, you're right.

[anon]

[greywaren]

what are you running from?

[anon]

[unknowable]

The person I should have been. The person I might be someday.

[anon]

[greywaren]

being afraid of yourself sucks

you just have to

i dunno

accept the truth and go from there. whatever the truth actually is

[anon]

[unknowable]

I'm afraid the truth isn't what I want it to be. Maybe there's no way for me to be any better than I was supposed to be.

[anon]

[greywaren]

you think youre fated to be something you hate?

[anon]

[unknowable]

Fate is bullshit. I just think it's hard to break yourself out of what you were made to be. Genetics or how you were raised or whatever - I don't want that to dictate who I'll be, but I don't know how to make sure it doesn't happen.

then do crazy shit. set someone else on fire and blow up a building

unless the person youre afraid of being is a terrorist

then dont do that i guess

[anon]

[unknowable]

I don't want to do either of those things, most of the time. It's already too easy for me to hurt people.

But I get what you mean.

[anon]

[greywaren]

hell i hurt people all the time

but i get it i guess

i think if youre scared of it then that means that you wont be it.

[anon]

[unknowable]

I hope that's true.

It's probably not a great sign that I think it's all right to hurt people sometimes.

[anon]

[greywaren]

some people deserve it

assholes especially

[anon]

[unknowable]

I would probably be a better person if I didn't agree with that. But sometimes that's the only way to get things done - or to keep people safe.

[anon]

[greywaren]

thinking that doesnt make you a worse person

it just makes you

i dunno

realistic

[anon]

[unknowable]

That's me.

Realistic.

[anon]

[greywaren]

is that a bad thing?

[anon]

[unknowable]

It's not very exciting.

[anon]

[greywaren]

better than being annoying as fuck and cheerful or gloomy

you just know whats there

that isnt boring

[anon]

[unknowable]

I don't know if that's true, but thanks for saying it. That helps.

[anon]

[greywaren]

it is true

dont be a wimp about it

[anon]

[unknowable]

What, you just know that? Don't be a jerk about it.

[anon]

[greywaren]

yeah i do

im always a jerk

[anon]

[unknowable]

I'm sure I know who you are, and I'm sure that isn't true.

[anon]

[greywaren]

i fucking beg to differ
