>tfw you think you're righter but everything you ever write is based off the absurdity of existence and attempting to reveal absurdity in everything and induce existential vertigo, but it never works because the brain and words themselves are hard wired to give mathematical meanings.

Fucking dick lit. I really, no, fuck, I can't. It's like, sometimes I write stuff, but once and a while I just decide that I will stop writing for a while. I think this is one of those times. Usually I write a lot, everyone on lit says that my writing fucking sucks, although a couple people told me thought my writing is enjoyable even though it's "not good". I mean, I don't even know anymore lit, I wonder if this shit kills my creativity, you know what I mean? I want to be a creative person, but I just think that my creativity died some time back in high school. I don't like drawing anymore, I don't like playing music, I realize slowly that I suck at writing too. I wish everyone else would just kill themselves, I fucking hate all of you, I hate you pieces of shit so much. You're a bunch of assholes but yet for some reason I still end up going onto this forum.

Do I have to read the 86 page intro to the Rodney Merrill edition of The Odyssey?

>Young (generally educated) men becoming disillusioned with the modern world and allowing politics (generally right wing) to become a dominant force in their life. It's a dangerous trend.

I was a right wing pseudo-con all through my teenage years. Who was I kidding? I'm a moderate, left leaning if anything. I can't speak for everyone but in my experience it was seeing the idiotic youth I didn't like as standing for the LEFT, and politics were an easy way to feel superior and lash out at them. Very pathetic really. Like most choices I've made in life I regret the whole thing.

I'll have a think on it. Ut, U-T/ blinked aside.

Is your blood read? Is your blood red? Are you breathing?
Are you bleating? Are you . . .

Styp, Stygian bleak snowsetting skies stirring whirring white hope into dithering darkness withering infinitely away to burnt black bone.
