Doubts - Part 1

rare vent art from a few months ago
I feel this!!! Also love how you muted the color along the way, I think it makes it that much more impactful!
This is the thing!
…Takes a while, sometimes.
Keep looking tho - they
are out there and it is worth
it when you find them.
Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
We will see you soon, Neighbor!
People who don't hyperfixate will never know the slightly horrible, completely impossible-to-replicate feeling of being so intensely invested in something it possesses you, takes over your waking thoughts and rides some weird line between being excited, anxious, and stressed as hell while still being entirely some other beast.
For me the stages of hyperfixation go:
1. Initial interest. I like it, it's on my mind, but it's manageable.
2. Sudden obsession. This is the one that features the most strange needless anxiety. It's new and I'm obsessed with it I wanna chew on it.
3. Dedication. The obsession is just as strong as it was in the previous stage I'm just more used to it. It is a part of my life now. I am actively chewing on it.
4. Casual commitment. Still obsessed, but it doesn't dominate my every waking thought. Still thinking + talking about it tho.
5. Fading interest (ft. The Dread.) It doesn't bring me as much joy as it used to, but I haven't fully moved on.
6. Lost hyperfixation (ft. The Void.) I've based way too much of my life and opinions around liking this thing and now there's that horrible emptiness because my brain took the dopamine hits away.
And occasionally:
7. It returns with a vengeance
my favourite thing about large discord servers is when they make an announcement post and all the reactions on it are like. POG FACE. TRANS HEART. E. CONFETTI EMOJI. FLAG OF PERU. SNAKE. Q. EYES. FIRE. MISCHEVIOUS DEVIL SMILING EMOJI. ANOTHER POG FAGE. PREGNANT MAN. HOT DOG. THUMBS UP. VRISKA.

There is functionally no difference between doing something nice because you actually care and doing something nice because it makes you feel good or because you think you're obligated to.
A charity does not care if you're only donating because your religion says you should; either way, your money is still going to help people. That little old lady next door does not care if you only help her with gardening because being thanked makes you feel good, it's just nice to have some extra hands.
"Fake it til you make it," is a phrase for a reason but it's also okay if you NEVER make it, if you never feel the "correct" emotions behind your actions. Your thoughts and feelings matter considerably less than the impact your actions have on other people.
It's like that story about the man who was going to donate to the hospital so he could get his name on a plaque, then realizes his motives were self-aggrandizing and spiralled on whether he should donate at all. At last he asked his rabbi, who said. "The sick in the hospital don't care if you just did it to puff yourself up. Don't shy away from doing the good thing just because you cannot do it perfectly!"
What an utterly cruel thing to tag this post with while completely missing the point. This post was about reassuring people with low and non-existent empathy that they are capable of being kind and doing good, even when they aren't feeling the "right" emotions.
If someone does good for gratitude, as opposed to genuine care, that's better than doing nothing out of apathy or a belief that nothing good you do matters because your motivation is selfish.
The csau 3 year trip be like
Where's the lie?
I made some Blues Clue's inspired Clown Puppies!
I'm gonna be making stickers for these soon so keep an eye out!
I liked this post, scrolled for like another minute before I went “SHIT FUCK SHIT” and scrolled back to reblog it
I always reblog this one when I see it on my dash. When someone posts their own art, writing, or music here they are really hoping you will share it.
brings a whole new meaning to “consuming art”
