A goodbye written over a dark field of stars.
""I'm fine" If you ask me that question again, I'll think you really care, and you're going to hear a terrible thing or two that might ruin your day. "Don't worry about it" I'll worry about it instead, and probably all week— Wondering what I did wrong, or what I could do so that you don't ever have to hear me apologizing again. "I’ve got a lot going on" Beneath all the labor of the year, I am busy trying to convince myself to kill myself. So, I ask for your patience, as I am also busy trying to convince myself not to kill myself. " . . . " I had to put the guns away. I sat in the dark for hours without realizing. I don't remember when I last showered. I broke down and cried on the floor again. I have been fantasizing about death. I need help." as a pale text over faces in the dark.

a dark texture which the following poem is overlaid: ‘Sharksleep’ I have heard that sharks might die Of suffocation when they still. To no end do they wander or try And anchor against the current’s will, In search of places they may lie. Lately, When I settle down For rest well-deserved, I feel that I am drowning. Am I a shark?
A dark purple forest with a poem overlaid that reads: 'Bedrot' Monday morning. Staring at the conversation, I come up with my reason Of why I won’t be showing. “Get up, damn you.” Paralyzed by all the choices, Pillow clamped over my head, Trying to drown out the voices Saying, "I wish that I were dead." "I am no one's special person." Does it matter the fire dwindles Or that it’s slowly killing me, If the truth is really That I am truly alone? "Nobody needs me." That's why I'm in here, And they're out there. "No one cares about what's happening." The world demands the energy, Of those who face the light of day. The world asks nothing of me And seems not to care if I stay. "Nobody will notice if I'm gone." Lost beneath the crushing wave, I embrace the gentle dark That asks only hours of me, Half-sleep sweeps the body away. "Everyone would be better off without me around." Trapped by a tangle of sheets, Buried until evening I lay Curled in the shaded halls of my mind, Where at least the noise is held at bay.

Bone white text on a dark red textured background. 'Mostly' I want the hole they left In my heart filled. I'm tired of looking back, Feeling the regret and sadness That I didn't understand them better. I want back the person I used to care about. But I know That person is dead. And the person Who is there now Is someone I am fundamentally Incompatible with. I don't know If they've been trying. I don't know If they're worse. I don't know And I think That's mostly what hurts.

Protestors at the Athens town hall, with a "support ukraine poster in the middle"
So... all the hundreds of thousands of our protestors... they are overreacting and making up problems that aren't real? What about all the countries issuing travel warnings? Are they making stuff up? What about the EU militarizing in response to our actions against Canada and Greenland? What about the UN begging us to reconsider human rights for our lawmaking? What about the world court denouncing our actions in Palestine? So... let me get this straight... everyone in the ENTIRE world is overreacting, except the people who voted for your guy?
