11.14.24 | craving some kind of exit

a lot of my friends dont really talk to me anymore. i jsut feel kind of depressed online. i dont know. i dont really fit in anywhere. i do everything wrong. i'm tired of updating my neocities. i'm tired of doing anything. i dont wanna talk i dont wanna do anything. i dont fit in anywhere.

i had a dream. i was talking to someone about welcome to nhk, and we got along really well. the person i was speaking to wasn't anyone in particular. i was getting along with them. we were smiling and laughing.

i don't know.. i have a few people in my life i talk quite regularly.. the girl i'm seeing... zed... citrus... i can't really think of anyone else actually. i don't feel particularly close to anyone nowadays. i kind of just talk to lots of people, but is any of it fulfilling? i think sometimes it is. i like the old school server. i feel like i belong there. people seem to like my sense of humor and are concerned when i'm doing badly, and they like my coords. they understand what i'm saying since we all like old school lolita.

but well.. i feel out of sync everywhere else.. in lolita servers, i'm out of step as an old schooler. in rpg maker communities, i'm out of sync because i'm a gay edgy loser with something really ugly inside me. i like visual novel circles, but i kind of like... i am scared. i feel mentally ill in a different way than my fellow visual novel making peers. i know we get along, but i know that if we were all talking together, i'd be out of place.

neocities.. well... i am tired of neocities really.. i'm considering abandoning it lol. it sparks joy but what do i here to? depression post? highlight my mental illness? i am so uninteresting now.. i have to come back.. hwen i have more things to say.. when i have prettier things to make.. when i'm worthy of being spectated in some way...

soon.. i think it will happen again.. i will make my grand exit.. and it will be so nice..

11.13.24 | あたまはこわいだ。

hey biitches. i actually had one of the greatest weekends up my life (hungout with kyou and machine girl concert) but i'm writing this entry at 4:37AM so it's going to be depressing. apologies.
i've been feeling really unhappy. it's the junior year blues. i had hopes that the horribleness peaked my sophomore year and it was all uphill from there, but no. i feel worse. i should've switched majors when i had the chance. you know i do actually really enjoy programming when i'm doing random bullshit, but having classes that force me to build all of these nonsensical projects is making me lose my sanity. also i'm just so tired. i don't know what to do. i kind of feel there are leeches draining me all the time. i don't really want to eat and all i want to do is sleep. it kind of reminds me of how people described their loved ones in hospice.

obviously i can't just leave college. there's nothing at home for me, and college is really the only thing i've got going for me. i'm just kind of like. oh god. what the fuck will i do when this is over? will i even make it out of this with my shitty coding skills? fuck. fuck. fuuck. fuUUUCK.

also i'm going to talk about this nightmare i had.

it's about Umineko I had a dream that was basically about me not understanding Umineko at all and there being several factors in the media i missed and I basically watched beatrice get murdered over and over. I kept trying to get her a happy ending but couldn't due to the hatred constantly winning.

While I know Umineko is all about the possibility of love and how there can be love despite it all, the dream was about how despite the fact that love was possible, Beatrice died due to hatred. there was so much hatred that it was inescapable. I felt myself suffocating in it in the dream. I was mortified.

I guess it just felt horrifying because I was there and I was like one of the people who had propagated the hatred even though at the time I just kept trying to save and understand her. It's just in that board game everyone was nice because it was a fragment where love was real. And everyone was horrified to learn how much hatred they had in their hearts in that game. They couldn't remember how their hatred had resulted in her death despite the fact that it did.

I've actually had nightmares every night though that one I think disturbed me the most. But perhaps I just think it disturbed me most because I remember it so clearly.

I also had a dream I was having sex (lesbian style) and family walked in. Horrible. And my mom read my emails and Discord messages. Horrible. Though it was less mortifying than the Umineko dream. At least, at that moment in the dream, I didn't feel the terror I felt as I tried to save Beatrice.

As my mom tried to talk to me about my sins, I just felt kind of irritated and wondered what the sex had been like if it hadn't been interrupted and also felt a bit of post traumatic stress from previous experiences of her going through my messages haha. I think I was sex brained because I'm on my period. I was kind of wishing it'd go away and I guess my brain was like "Okay I'll fix it" then gave me that dream which has successfully dropped all sexual desire to the negatives.

Anyway, yeah. Yeah. That's most of what I wanted to talk about. I'm kicking a Machine Girl page around in my head. You might me wondering- why don't you talk about the good things in your life? It's actually strange. I have the desire to journal physically most of the time or when I do write about good things, I'd rather write in Japanese. I guess writing in English doesn't feel stimulating enough lately. I can't really identify the reason exactly. it's probably just.. the severe depression.

Oh yeah, I will say... based on more interactions regarding Ophazines existing and people being mad about various things regarding us existing, I am taking a break from running it next year. I might come back. I might not. I don't know. It really depends on if I miss it or not. I like running niche interest zines. RPG Maker Zine is so big that I go into any internet space and I find people pissed at me for some reason. "You rejected me and I am so niceys." "The rejection email is too short." "You don't include mod links in your tumblr mods page." "You didn't fire this mod after I told you to so your apology is null and void even though the zine could not run without the presence of this mod."

I'm at my limit methinks. I.. just wanted to run zines with my friends. I didn't want this many eyes on me in the first place, and I'm tired of people making judgements on me when they've never even spoken to me. I made RPZinemaker 2 because I knew it'd be successful and I'd be able to contribute to the RPG Maker community and also hopefully make a small difference to some Gaza charity with the genocide taking place, but people just keep.. getting pissed at me over everything. I usually have so much fun... But it hasn't been fun this time. So maybe this should be the last time or a hiatus is in order.

I will say adieu.
