is it wrong to hate and fear humanity

my wife tells me I can bring joy to others
my wife says my words bring comfort
maybe I no longer believe the world is worth the risk of helping, because humans are fundamentally predatory.
so if the world fundamentally betrays you, what would make you want to share those things with them?
serious question. trolls and bullshit gets deleted and reported.

A Few Lies Later

(this didn't feel like a chapter proper but might end up one eventually. just getting it out so I can actually try to sleep myself )
The memories always returned. AJ didn't figure that was ever gonna go away. How could you forget family?
And yet, how could you survive remembering they were gone?

slice of life microfic in one of my settings

Twilight sighed. "You do amazing work, Rarity. Even when you're just setting up beach chairs for the attempted relaxation."
"Well, darling, I can't take all the credit. The lovely little Supersprites handle so much for me, I can't help but owe them thanks."
Twilight shrugged. "Still, it's amazing. And to think they were a pest before."

clichéd as fuck

Writer's block.
I hate those words because they're so damned meaningless when what truly blocks you is the world.
It's not even exactly the writer who feels like the problem. Can't write because of this person you know, or that one you knew. What if I express something some rando will gonna attack me over? Or send some fuckboy SWATter friends at me?

The note she left behind when she moved out summed the whole thing up.

Have a good life, Dash. Think of the little ponies now and then. I'm sure I'll see your trails in the sky. I came to be the best, and it's not possible. Better to let it go now.

I'll admit for a moment I thought what I'd always thought. Yeah, with an attitude like that, go ahead and quit.

Only it wasn't true. Cirrus had worked harder than any pony I'd ever seen in her classes. She was full speed ahead all the time. She was ready and willing. The only thing that'd failed her was the reality that she didn't have the wings and couldn't make up for the lack of it.

I didn't read any Hortensia Eiger stories after that. I didn't get the same sense of sunrise and the horizon like I did when I used to read them.

They were okay stories, I guess, but they always reminded me of Cirrus, and that always felt crappy.
