        For what it's worth, from one internet stranger to another, I'm sorry.

        No one should feel so betrayed on all fronts. That's awful 😞

        It's how I've felt for a long time. Had a break with them as a roommate until I realized they were doing the same thing to me that everyone else was. Meh. I'm used to it.

          While I feel everything you wrote in my soul and can empathize with almost every part, know that you are loved by an internet stranger. You deserve happiness, fulfillment, and peace. You are a work of art. Sometimes art is sad or depressing or horrifying, but even with those themes it is beautiful and impactful and moving. You are a work of art that always changes. Learn to love that art, learn to nurture it. Treat it like the masterpiece it is and put it where the world can enjoy it.

          I’m here for you if you ever need someone to talk to. I’m not always the most upbeat person given — literally everything — but I’m happy to be a friend.

          P.S. Thank you for all the content you share. You are a cornerstone of the fediverse.

              I just have a bad track record on trusting people. I thought I broke that recently. I was wrong. Combine that with that broken trust snowballing into severe financial problems where I might be homeless? I'm out of hope.

              Hey, friend. Just remember that broken trust speaks ill of them, not you. And as for a bad track record, I find that the most trusting people are also the most trustworthy. Right now that's pretty much all I know about you, but it's enough to believe you're making the world around you better. I don't think your problem is trust, but rather being in a position where broken trust leaves you in an untenable situation.

              I don't know your reasons for hating yourself. Those belong to you. But whatever they are, whether they are valid or not, you don't deserve hate. Hell, I wouldn't waste my time hating anyone — hate has never solved a single problem. Give yourself some grace and room to make mistakes and improve. And then to stumble and do it again. We all have.

              No lie, part of life is just luck, and for that part I hope yours is good. But the rest of it is in your hands, and those sound like decent hands to be in.

                I appreciate it, but it's all based off of only a small bit of information that you're aware of. I suck. I hate myself. I have a reason to hate myself. I have almost no value for the rest of humanity in general. So while I do appreciate it, it's not true for me.

                  Art. I found some cheap acrylic glitter paint I bought a while back and I’ve been making sparkly erotic paintings. Some mixed media with mutilated copies of mass market christian books, random wooden trays. I have a bunch of leftover scraps of t-shirt from making yarn and other fabric remnants, so I make quilts.

                          Weed, lexapro, and playing guitar. And that quote from Samwise

                            If the fascists get me, some stranger will have to clean out an apartment full of a ton of sparkly colorful paintings of penises with random passages from the Left Behind series modpodged on.

                            It makes life worth living.

                              We are living in the most developed and peaceful tunes/times. Our great grandparents did not have antibiotics, child mortality was very high. Around 150 years ago, slavery and serfdom was hapenning, so instead of staring itno Outlook or Teams, you would be doing life crushing and dehumanising work. Much off the stuff that was out of reeach by lower or middle class is much more affordable today, even basic stuff such as meat was scarce in my grand parents time (ussr). 100 years ago most people saw only around 30 km around their land, or as much as horse could walk in a day, but now traveling is very affordable.
                              I am hopeful that besides all the political crap we are moving towards even more developed future

                                      The drive for freedom of the living can not be stopped. Only temporary measures are possible against it.
