i talk about things sometimes

pfp and banner are @araibokuseki 💖
this is beautiful. may I ask your process? do you have moodboards for inspiration? and do you sketch it out first or go straight into it freehand and see where it takes you?

it both means a lot that i'm not alone, and pains me that you have experienced similar. it's a hard thing to go through, but learning to love yourself and know your worth does genuine wonders. i'm happy you found solace in it.

i do what i can to be kind
i take the advice of the therapy that saved my life
i've built up my self esteem from the cold ground up

i can look back at these twelve years and feel proud
maybe in the next 12 years, you can too
November 25, 2025 at 9:10 PM
and you will continue to progress in the way you have in these 12 years;
you'll get crueler
you'll laugh at trauma
you'll never see the harm you did
and do

but in 12 years i have come so far
i love myself
i don't think i'm "the worst person to ever exist"
i don't put emotional labor on my friends

12 years, and the only change you can boast is you only drink once a week
12 years, and you're more cruel, and more mean than you were in 2016
12 years, and you have changed
but not for the better
12 years, it took, for me to realize my worth
but at least i got there

you can paint a picture of me that comforts you
you can lie to save your hide
you can collect friends like souls
but you and i will always know
and you''re the one that has to sleep with that
November 25, 2025 at 9:04 PM
you were fun
a smart person
i loved listening to you talk
and i loved watching shows that you loved even if i hated them
but that doesn't erase everything else you were
and are
and likely will always be
November 25, 2025 at 9:04 PM
i don't hate you
but you'll always be the face behind the mask
i will never unsee it
because that is you
that is who you are
someone who rolled her eyes at me when i was hurt
and chose the drink when i needed her
someone who cannot shake the vitriol
someone who thinks being cool is being mean

further evidence that everything you do is projection.

to make me think the person i trusted with everything i had been through, the person who treated it with the seriousness it deserved, the person who i have never, and still do not hold any animosity or anger against, would be just like you. you two are not the same. and that brings me comfort.
