/lit/ - Literature

One who has been terminally online for too long can fall into such depths of degeneracy that the shame will forever taint any chance at beholding something beautiful, any chance of having a story worth telling, any chance at having that literary justification in a troubled life, troubled world. What I mean is, if you have fallen down the rabbit hole into the modern brands of degeneracy which lurk primarily on the internet, even though you feel the wind on you skin on a warm summer night and feel that momentarily bliss, partaking in the simple pleasures of the world, the picture as a whole, the higher perspective that includes you and everything you've done alongside and within that summer night, will never be able to be reconcile your self as anything more than a dirty stain on a seemingly perfect cosmos. There is a reason that, though authors have long written works about depraved and sad men, the vile and the wicked, they will never be able to write a piece which includes the existence of the terminally online protagonist who has spent time on /d/, who plays with alphabet identities (the twitter kind), who falls for shallow trends and obsesses over anime girls, who sucks up frogposter memes, or anything else known too well by users of this website. I beg you young users not to become like me. Do not waste your time here. Truly find your own truth elsewhere, for in the beginning one can shut out the little moments depravity as youthful experimentation, but after enough years partaking in the degeneracy so accessible here, you will realize these acts are a part of you which cannot be separated. There will be no redemption, for to juxtapose such shameful things with the straight and narrow will always be an abomination, will always leave its mark. Any attempt to redeem yourself will be nothing but a cope. Only ignorance can save you, and if you have any desire to change and make yourself better, you will already detest ignorance. And thus, you are left with no path beyond suffering and terrible self-awareness. Leave this place. Don't be like me.
