My Motivation for Writing

November 2, 2022

CW: Slurs

I feel like this is good to establish so that people know what to expect from this point on. I don't really have a specific topic that I want to write about, but in general whenever I write, this is the reason.

I write, because as many years of experience and trial and error, found that writing is the only way that I can have any satisfactory influence on the world. I am not a good fighter. I can't remember the last time I've even won a fight, because the only thing I managed to do was take damage until I decided nothing I did was going to hurt them and cut my losses. Every attempt I have made to organize people has failed. The strength of my spoken word is about as good as my social skills, of which I have none. Even among written formats I have done nothing but embarass myself in the past. I can offer no excuse for this(laziness, lack of retrospection, etc.) other than a seemingly invisible block that I have. I must simply be too stupid. I can't even contribute in a bare-minimum genetic way, because I'm a faggot. Even this skill does not particularly mean anything in the long run(I've read essays by some of my social network far better than I could ever pen), but it's my only chance. There is no voice in this because I don't think there's any voice or emotion to send, only the facts.
