I disappeared because everything turned into a screaming, twitching, on fire dumpster of bullshit changes, and the whole planet decided to go fully tits up at the same time.
Platforms shifting underfoot. Rules rewritten overnight. Attention spans collapsing into God knows where.
The usual human habit of pouring fuel on whatever was already on fire and then acting shocked when the smoke alarms go off and any other bs seems to bring us to our knees...
It’s been a lot. I’ve been dealing with the actual shit instead of pretending the internet was still a normal place to show up and perform.
I’m not dead though. I’m not retired (Although I probably should be...)
I’m not “pivoting to video” or whatever the current euphemism is for vanishing and all that good shit. (Although I have been tempted so hard to create ranting videos about how screwed we really are.)
I just stopped performing normalcy while everything around me was rearranging itself into something unrecognisable and frequently dumber.
Some of it was personal. Some of it was just watching the whole machine cough up another layer of nonsense and deciding I didn’t have the energy to narrate it in real time.
I’m still here. The work is still the work. The rest of it can keep its tits up or keep going down, either way, I’m done pretending what was left of the floor hasn’t moved.
Elections are here too, which I don't give a single fuck about, but the rest of the world does and well... That means we're gonna be even more cooked over here in the UK. Anyways.
I'm gonna be back with a furious vengeance soon. I just need the next 10 days to not kick me right in the balls. Stephen Walker. P.S. Please tell me all of the good things that's happened in your world, or at least, let me know what has kicked your ass too. Cause you know I got your back.
