frankenstein 2025 feat. disco elysium lines.

YOU — I will bear any burthen. ENDURANCE — Remember: Kingsmen are not born, they are made. And the only thing that can unmake us is that which drove us to rise above in the first place. We keep that thing locked in the deepest cellars of our mind. So deep we forget what it is. VOLITION — Does this thing *unmake* you, or does it heal you? ENDURANCE — We keep it buried like a horrible secret. We feed it through the cracks in the floorboards out of a sickening sense of nostalgia. Just enough to keep it alive. And yet, it still comes to us in moments of weakness, unbidden, a source of shame and panic...

Hey, man, c'mere. Listen. Get in real close, this is important.

You're gonna make stuff again. You're gonna make stuff you're proud of. You're gonna make stuff you're excited to share. You're going to feel that overwhelming drive to create, not just the frantic I want to want to you're stuck in now. You're going to have awesome ideas, and you're going to make them into reality. You're going to create again. You're still an artist. You're still a writer. You're still home to the same passion you had before. You'll find it again. It's not gone. It's just resting. Let it rest. You're going to make stuff again. I promise.

having a process for people who have done morally horrific things to make amends, rejoin community, and do right going forward is actually fundamentally crucial for the left. having a clear and accessible pathway for people to be socially (if not interpersonally) forgiven is how you get people radicalized against capitalism and imperialism and white supremacy and patriarchy. its how you turn "these people think i am a bad person" into "these people think something and someone coerced or forced me into doing bad things, and these people want to help me do something about that."

if you want more revolutionaries, you must have a system to turn guilty, traumatized, angry bystanders and collaborators into revolutionaries. and I say a system and process because its not "oh the drone operator said they were sorry and felt bad so its all good now :)" there is no shortcut here. but it is absolutely necessary. no revolution is comprised of morally pure people. in many cases, the most devoted revolutionaries are the ones who know exactly what it is like on the other side.

also, i know this might sound corny but like.... please be nice to other people online. not even trying to say this in a like a, 'oh because you never know what they might be going throughhhh' kind of way just like. be nice man. stop hate following along with things. be more patient with strangers. stop trying to get off cunty one liners for your five seconds of smirking like a dreamworks poster protag.

ive said it before but as a tool and a 'place', i really love the internet, genuinely. i dont like the resignation that it has to be, and stay, a place thats full of misery and fighting. ive met a lot of really wonderful people here, and i think we could all have a nice time together if everyone did their part to make it so that was possible. im not speaking down to you as someone whos never made these mistakes, im asking as someone whos also made them alongside you.

ive been really fucking mean my whole life. i was raised by people who act nice and friendly most of the time, but have a habit of being mean to each other at the slightest opportunity; any small shortcoming or failure or misinterpretation was met with petty mocking cruelty. sometimes the cruelty would be wrapped up in a joke, like a candy coating, so you felt like you had to accept it because it's a joke, when the substance of it was actually just as unkind as genuine, unfiltered cruelty. it's been a lifelong practice for me to undo this learned instinct to be mean, and i still fuck up sometimes, when something makes it harder to catch the intrusive thoughts before they become action. but i'm getting better at not being mean. and i'll tell you why.

i think its good to keep other people (and what they're going through) in mind when you're deciding whether or not to make a mean joke, or to just be mean, or mocking, or cruel. but like OP said, that's not really why you should not be mean. in counseling, i was introduced to this idea that i am what i do. everything i do becomes the sum of what i am. every time i want to be mean, or to make a mean joke, or to be rude, or dismissive, or cruel, or petty, im presented with a choice: i can be mean, or i can choose to do something else (be nice, leave, do nothing, etc). and that choice defines the person i want to be. and all the many times i make that choice sum up to the person i am. because what's more important than how your actions affect other people is how your actions define you. that's not just a vague platitude; it is a direct cause-and-effect relationship. you become what you practice.

every time you're mean, you get better at being mean. mean is a skill that gets stronger with practice. every time you're mean, it becomes a little easier to be mean. and not to the people "who deserve it", either. every time you're mean to someone you dont like, it becomes a little easier to be mean to the people you love, as well. because what you practice defines you, it does not define other people. what you do easily to the people you consider your enemies, to the people you hate, will eventually become the things you do to the people you love when you're tired, when you're stressed, when you've had a bad day, when you have low energy to stop it. your default reaction is something you can train. but only if you stop yourself at every chance where you want to be mean and decide, instead, to do something else.

that's not to say you can't, like, defend yourself from attack or whatever. but you really gotta be more selective about your battles. most of them probably actually aren't going to result in anything good if you engage aggressively. if you don't know that yet, you will. practice removing yourself from the situation first. be proactive about it: avoid those situations in the first place. realize that the people who want to pick fights with you have already made up their mind about any outcome, and nothing you can say or do will affect them; it'll just get them defensive, which reinforces their own beliefs to them. You can't win against them. But you can get a win for yourself in the way you react.

yeah, you help define a social space whenever you act within it, which is a well enough reason to be careful about what you do. but the most important reason - the longterm, personal reason - to stop being mean, is because: why would you want to be a person who practices being mean? everything you practice eventually comes back to you. you get to decide what exactly that is.
