however, i do still feel... weird... hesitant about it. on twitter or any other platform, there is comfort in yelling into the void. nobody to see your writing leaves no anxiety about being seen and perceived. but here? you all seem very... established, experienced. it is both inspirational AND scary. a beautiful petrifying mix.
i dont know if others engage with this sort of content, but every once in a while when im scrolling tiktok, i'll stumble upon a tarot card reading. they call out "if this is on your fyp, its meant for you."
i always struggle to believe them, it seems undoubtedly like an algorithmic ploy. still, i suspend disbelief almost every time, receiving some message.
one that really stuck with me was fear of being an amateur was holding me back. so here i am. doing the thing. trying to embrace it.
i dont really write poetry. i dont know what im doing. but hanging out on this server, you all make me want to mess around, try it out, embrace being an amateur.
the messages that find me
are they delusion or divine?
do they appearing at the just right time?
guidance towards some purpose?
or a diversion of the mind
a mockery of some future imagined corpus.

good morning all! quick question: how do you avoid the descent into an anxious, panic driven mental hellscape during the editing process. especially if its on a tight deadline... asking for a friend...
funny, the digital marketing agency i work at is actually HAPPY about bird app's pay for verification platform, because it means they can verify all their clients accounts without having to meet the traditional requirements. geez... what a shitshow.
question for all you writers, how did you get started? did you start with magazine and journal submissions, or jump right into your first larger collection of work? once im done school, i plan on really taking my writing seriously, but im not quite sure where i should start.
SID Music Botsigh. i really need to get out of the 9-5 grind. or at least find something that doesnt feel so pointless and degrading.
