it sucks

obscure-entity

i didnt realize how intensely this would resonate with some people so im willing to write about it, proceed if youre interested. lots of somewhat emotional braindump text warning

(1.) yes this is mainly about forms of dissociation, or at least based on my line of questioning regarding it from the past week or so. i still think there isnt a wrong way to interpret this piece though because it gives room to address some of my other issues and i wanted to leave it open ended for those (anything you can associate with questioning, doubt, fluidity etc. probably applies to this piece)

(2.) a lot of people elsewhere interpreted this about me having a lack-of-self but i feel like its better characterized as overflowing with so much "self" and a rising demand to uphold the differing "selves" pushing and pulling from all angles that its confusing

ironically, accepting that i am not a consistent person is already helping me find consistency sort of? because being able to categorize it, realize there's not some simple fix that i'm missing, and explain why my entire worldview can change so quickly makes me feel like i have some autonomy in that regard

its not really a cry for help so much as it feels like i was able to make this piece to end the chapter of subtle denial + self-flagellation and start working with myself a little bit more. even the worst part of myself is still someone with differing needs and goals that id have to take the time to understand and work with

(3.) this is also visually based on the arc ive had over the past year or so where i began to draw entity as much as possible to explore what it could be, opposed to who i initially thought it was. a lot of this art is on my alt and most of these heads probably correlate to at least one piece i made over there

i think it was able to start around the time i dropped out of college after becoming so desperate to be my own person and begin living (and also just. realizing i should not be in more debt than the amount of money i will ever make in my life and torture myself by being around more well-off people just because someone told me to lmao).

if youre like me and have the privilege to reject burnout, the thing about letting yourself have some time alone to settle down and think is that youre going to unpack so much prior shit, over a decade of it probably, and theres probably going to be denial or doubt or some intense fear about ever being that "functional/whole person" again and itll be hard to pry yourself away from isolation when it rewards you with comfort. and when you make a mistake youre going to writhe and kick and destroy yourself for failing to ever return to the idea of a "functional person"

and its Supposed to suck. thats literally the only way it can happen. its not even your fault that you have to work from the ground up but the first step is giving yourself leeway before you crawl out of that box, if you ever do. i dont believe in saying in good faith that it "gets better" because it paints an idealized future where everything wrong with you is magically erased, and this becomes an expectation that people get hung up on for never meeting. thats literally what people mean when they tell you to be patient with yourself. thats You

for that reason i cant even promise that im going to radically change after these revelations, but ive pieced together why its impossible to feel like ive ever moved from "learner" to "teacher," why i felt innately inferior to people, why it was hard to register that i had a body/presence and was supposed to remember that i had to participate with other people, and why i didnt want to. like i already go through the effort of not taking up space, so i have to stop internalizing that a person ignoring this and becoming irritated with me effectively doesnt want me to exist. sometimes it is not my problem

anyways i am a spectator with a body and i think i speak for at least one spectator with a body out there when i say that we demand nothing from you except patience. patience is the sweetest thing if you can afford it

#finally found a post the correctly conveys EXACTLY how i feel about my I own identity and how i draw myself

sometimes people will insist a character is butch/masc and then you look at the character and they’re just fat. or muscular. or black. or indigenous. or some combination of the above.

#this but its when people assume im a butch lesbian im fat and muscular (with a short [to my shoulders] haircut)

Quick shout out to the Down syndrome kid from my after-school program back when I was in grade school. Like yea he had the usual issues but he was a sweetheart and quite funny; and one day both his parents showed up at the same time to pick him up and I had the experience of meeting a family of genetically disabled people that had jobs and a home and a kid in school and it was a profoundly normalizing experience for me like I couldn’t take eugenicists seriously after that because like “no they totally can have whole entire meaningful lives with marriage and children and work and hobbies have you not met Dennis??” Anyway quick shout out to Dennis you were a real one

Thinking about starting a new blog. I’m not really liking how my most popular post is one from 4 years ago. I don’t really want to be defined by a time that was really dark for me.

Ender variants round two!!

The Aquatic Enders and the end variant!! (other variants post https://www.tumblr.com/biscgutz/723322436026777600/ender-man-variants-overworld-and-nether?source=share )

Deep sea enders are the second largest variant ranging about 6.5-7 blocks. Native to the deep cold oceans or frozen oceans these guys mimic glow squids! They swim in pods of up to 6 and raise their young as one big family. they love making jewelry out of shells and pearls, and hunt drowned for their tridents and nautilaus shells. These guys cannot breathe air and are purely aquatic. Often trading with coral enders for surface supplies or living in abandoned ship wrecks.

The coral ender is one of the smaller variants, about 2.5 blocks. These guys live in warm oceans and coral reefs, often hunting along side dolphins for food. They make jewelry out of coral and are often seen trading with coastal villages. They can breathe air but cannot be on the surface for long. They hunt guardians for sport and often times wear guardian bones or spikes as a trophy. They use trade with deep sea enders for tridents and pearls.

The lush ender or commonly known as the enderlotl, is about 2.5-3 blocks tall. They live in lush caves or underwater caves and rarely come out of them. Highly sensitive to sunlight and heat these guys can breathe air but need to be in a cool moist environment. They love glowberries and plants, as well as any shiny ores. they’re master jewelry makers and villages around the world travel to their caves for their jewelry. They often times have jobs as guides for cave travelers.

The end variant is about 4 blocks tall and more draconic in appearance due to overexposure to the dragon. Not much as known about them as very few have made it to the end and survived.
