I’m really into unusual/insane/unhinged. I find them fascinating. I’ve followed conspiracy theorists, alien abductees, otherkin, therians, people who eat cat fur of their sofa, etc etc.
I’m looking for good weirdness to watch during downtime. Any suggestions.
Really nasty people will do.
I read all that and honestly, that all sounds exactly like what I would assume an early- mid 20s relationship burdened under existential nihilism coupled with that numbing pervasiveness that hollows you out after losing your staring contest with the absurd, and the ideations that our ennui naturally exude.
It’s easy to look back over years and pencil it in neatly, plot holes filled, from our privileged advantage in time. Life, as we know, if weve lived a sufficient amount of it, is never as linear as our stories, nor as intentional, and providence and luck benefit us each more than we admit, even to ourselves. We embellish our own story - to ourselves. It’s too easy to retcon stories in a bad light, fucking creative industries are devoted to that entire genre, but it’s way to easy to think, gee exurb1a’s smart and think it’s all premeditated and working to a point and in that light that’s all really fucked up. Idk man. I think we all can look back a decade and find ourselves cringe, I imagine these two kids are no different.
Parallel to that you could see how maybe guys having some fun running with an idea with this gal. Maybe he set up some synchronicities, people do plan surprises don’t they? That’s still a thing right? I think it’s entirely plausible it’s a series of happenstances she’s rewriting as if theres some davinci code Roseline thru it all.
And yet nowhere did I see her take any personal responsibility. It was her trip to a psych ward because of him, not her lack of critical thinking or ability to put space between them? Idk man, eschewing agency doesnt absolve yourself accountability and it sure as shit doesn’t lend your credibility.
I’ve read her side and I’m not convinced, I still have questions, things just aren’t adding up to me. A couple screenshots of text (that totally can’t be faked right?) isn’t what I would call bringing receipts. Im reserving judgement until I see his response, assuming he responds in public, y’know since that’s where she brought her accusations. Until we hear both sides, it’s all hearsay anyways. In reality, we don’t know shit about either one of these people, whether theyre good people or not or whatever. Maybe she’s trying to go all Amber Heard on him, how the fuck would we be able to discern otherwise?
Yea, I think reserving judgement is prudent. And if the reality doesn’t come to light? Well, oh well. It’s not our business to begin with.
