jump to expanded postfear the upcoming hikari_no_yume รฆsthetic reset
i will have to mercilessly narrow myself in some ways if i am serious about achieving depth outside of this all too stale home niche i've dug myself further and further into
i think the most painful thing is that i probably will need to abandon my touchHLE maintainer status
(but i promise to do so responsibly)
i will become something real somehow some fucking how
all these useless surface wounds and accumulated attachments and for what, none of them had a purpose
people will tell you not to worry about your age but i needed to and still do, not because of any inherent meaning but because the terror at the upcoming checkpoint of life is a vital motivator, i can't live another decade wandering lost in the shadow of a dream of a younger self
i will never be half the person my idols are but i must at least be able to speak the same fucking language
there is a vision but i will not articulate it here lest you or i become satisfied with the illusion it has already been achieved. i am at step zero. you shall know the vision by its realisation or you shall not know it at all. that is my word
art comes neither from adversity nor a lack thereof, it comes from a fucking effort and goddamn commitment to scratching, cutting, scarring out a path and staying the course. i must not forget this
@hikari the sanctioned action is to Cut
@whitequark a clean cut leaves the smallest scar?
@hikari think of your life as a scar you inflict on the universe by using your soul as the blade
what do you want to leave behind you?
i've heard from an elusive accursed sage that one must erase all traces of oneself before one can proceed to a different universe.
which is an obvious contradiction, come to think of it, but then the creator is known to be something of a consummate fib.
