I see so much about internet savior and my dearest Kiki, but I haven't been able to bring myself to talk about my views of it for a while but I suppose I will try now i think it is disgusting how we group the two together. I see so many posts that are "talking about internet savior and kiki" as if they were connected in any way. yes, they both left the world around the same time, but seeing so many people consider them one in the same feels so disrespectful. they were two COMPLETELY different cases. it angers me to see them so connected in the eyes of so many people. it feels like people don't see them as lives lost. and its horrible to me. if you're going to talk about it, you can't just say "oh that's sad, rip kiki and internet savior" no. especially people that have no place in doing so, people that never talked to them, people who never even HEARD of them until they committed. I was a friend of Kiki's. I talked to her and I was friends with her for a lot of the time that my blog has been up. it felt horrible to see her go, it hurt so much, and I think of her a lot and hope shes in a much better place now, as she deserves. she was a wonderful person, a very VERY kind soul that didn't deserve ANY of what happened to her or what people are saying about her right now. for a space on Tumblr that claims to be a place for freely expressing mental illness and personal issues, the moment Kiki stopped trying to be happy you all got really fucking uncomfortable. Kiki deserved and DESERVES better from this community that she loved so much. and it hurts my heart to see the things going on right now... everyone just needs to be kinder. Kiki was a human being. not just a blog on Tumblr. she was someone who had a life, and to see you all act like she was just another statistic is sickening. she deserved happiness, and now she deserves respect.
and if you'd like to see me talk about internet savior, I will have another post soon.
