Why Facebook Is Dead And Shaming The Indie Community

Facebook used to be wonderful, but like Atlantis, its wonders somehow disappear overnight and now it must face its downfall as its the fall of the Facebook Empire.

I remember when Myspace and Facebook were competitors. Most people believed Myspace would be the winner. Facebook won, but now it’s becoming a ghost town. What Facebook Used To Be For The Indie Community Not that long ago, in 2014, I started my journey to becoming an author and writer. I was still getting used to Facebook entirely. I had no obsession with social media. Becoming at least…

A Lifetime Of Breast Shaming

Body shaming is a term that encompasses many things, and breast size is one of them-big breasts is shamed, and I lived with it, and I refuse to look at myself in the mirror because of the shame.

The image you see on your screen, monitor, or on the covers of magazines is a lie. Photoshop is real, and now AI software is also taking over. I should know as a graphic designer and illustrator. This is my story. The Importance of Body Image This is my story of breast shaming. It’s not a shaming we hear about often, but it’s one that people should be aware of. Today I weighed myself and…

Futuristic Friendship SAME OLD STORY

It's been about eight years that I part ways with X and Y and yet they are still a part of my life and our friendship though it died still haunts me because online friendship is real.

Friendship is a relationship of mutual affection between people. It is a stronger form of interpersonal bond than an association. — Wikipedia Roughly Ten Years Ago Futuristic friendship comes from the web now. Not so long ago, we would meet our new friends on the school grounds. We would meet some at our work or bookstore, at a coffee shop, and it would be something physical.  Now, it has…

Requiem For The Previous Me

So many fairy tales are forgotten, and I'm bringing them back to life with a new voice to shine.

To The Names I Wore When I decided to legally change my name, I tested the waters with a few. I thought about who I was and what kind of artist I was.

Body Shaming Caused My Cibophobia

Society had people say they wished to be sick like me. Society had people laugh at me for living in a constant state of fear. I looked like one of those super sickening x-ray models, and people still managed to bring me down.

After years of fighting myself and the world around me, after I moved away and decided to take care of myself, the ugly duckling turned to a swan to everyone but me. What No One Tells You When my grandpa passed, my entire world crumbled down and crushed me. I didn’t know at the time, but it triggered a bombing countdown. Cibophobia starved my whole life and I didn’t even know what it was yet.I…

Confession Of A Shamed Mind Born Broken

Some believe I suffer from asociality, which’s a mental disorder that has an association with introverts. It can be a clinical condition, but in my case, asociality isn’t my disorder. I am a misanthrope and know this to be true for me.

It took me years to understand myself. People rejected me at a very young age. Sure I have scars like any other my age, but I’m also differently wired. When People Disgust Me At a young age, I couldn’t stand how people close to me, except for my grandpa, would remove a stain from my face or simply wash my hands. I did not like the contact. As I grew older, I thought it was merely a case of…

When Blood Is Thinner Than Water

It is not a question of time because it is not reversible. One can only give a hand so many times before the person decides to drown. I

Then this happened to me. *** UPDATES: After the results of 23andMe I am only 2.9% Native American on my paternal side.

Bravery To Stop My Shame

As a clinical OCD person, changes in my daily activities make me nauseous. It means that going for walks without my dog is inconceivable. For the last year, I have stopped going for walks. You can imagine the shock my body took.

The Realization Before Your Eyes When I realized my body changed in the last year at an alarming rate, I panicked. The vicious circle I live in is panicking ticks my cardiophobia, my anxiety level, my…
