have to put it somewhere but in the last 5 years 3 seperate groups of people have decided im the villain and never told me why just iced me out and isolated me and in 2/3 cases i dont think i actually /did/ anything i think its a mix of antiblackness, ableism, and that ive seen them/know that they hurt other ppl very badly.
group 1 was someone who i used to consider a best friend but who soft cut me off when i disliked a partner of theirs, then, when they decided to hate that now ex, they pushed for their ostricization and 'took me back' without apologizing. they refuse to make eyecontact with me and their partner now flatout ignores my existence, even though i literally was the olive branch for this friend to almost every community theyre successful in now (not that they owe me shit for that), and i think its bc im still close w another Black/mixed friend of mine who they hate now bc they called them out on their antiblackness (which they give excuses for why their nonblack ass can get away with it). this person notoriously throws people out and claims 'villain' when ppl get upset at how they treat others as so cruelly disposable, and ive seen it up close and personal even before it was me and i think that also plays into why they treat me lkke this now.
2nd group was my exes friends who only knew me when i was a self destructive alcoholic. i was loud and obnoxious and yeah i had shrapnel (never abusive), but they decided covid, year 3 of my sobriety, that id never changed, ramped up my exes resentment at me for the alcoholic years even after they said theyd forgiven me and were proud of how far id come, and were instrumental in the breakup if that 5 year relationship. even though one of those friends was literally also sober, they just couldnt forgive me for ever having been an alcoholic, i was just worse than all of them i guess.
3rd is a current happening. someone i knew from god 9 years ago, again who i invited into the community when they were new in town (see a pattern?) had their white friend LIE ABOUT NOT ONLY KNOWING ME BUT ME MAKING HER FEEL 'UNSAFE' (IVE NEVER MET THIS WOMAN), to kick me out of a discord all my friends are in, and when ppl challenged that initially, this person had the gall to say that i made them uncomfy, to the point for a while they wouldnt go to POC events i was at. this person who took the side of 2 white boys who isolated me at 19 bc one of them led me on then dated my ex bf (they didnt have to like me, i was FPing the guy, but the isolation and all my friends picking their side still sucked), and then this person went on to be sexually inappropriate and preassurey and crossing boundaries w multiple friends at this point. but i cant hang out where my friends r bc i make this person uncomfy. i think theyre scared id 'out' them as predatory or something (wouldnt w/o permission of vics obvi) and so they paint me as the villain first
and like if i did something wrong let me know so i can leave y alone and fix it (like i did getting sober going to therapy getting on meds ect) im invested in not hurting ppl. but i dont think i ever /actually/ hurt any of these ppl, i think they just benefit from me not being around and are willing to lie and exclude and ostricize to get it. and ik that sounds conspiratory but like. fuck.

I'm currently friends with several people who 80% of the time do not respond to DMs at all
some because they get overwhelmed, some because they're busy
and I'm not saying they take a while but that I will text them something or ask them something and will just never receive a response. So basically my DMs are just piling up and one day I send them something they apparently just care about enough or they have a moment where they can respond and then I get a few short sentences, and then my stupid ass responds to that with a lot of text, all excited that they're there and then silence again
they're very active in groups
they seem to be very active in things in general
and while I'm certain they aren't bad people and probably just can't always respond I. fundamentally don't get it. I don't understand seeing someone's DM and just ignoring them most of the time.
The only people I do that to are people who I cannot stand or who I wanna cut off. I do it on purpose to let them FEEL that I'm upset or that I'm not here for that without having an argument. Most of the times when I do that, it's to communicate a "you bother me, don't talk to me"
and I cannot imagine someone seeing a DM in which I ask them for help or send them a meme or ask them a question about their OCs and them seeing it and just. not responding? and then not even.,,, showing any reaction when they do respond way later like "omg i didnt see this", just. full on ignoring
I have good reason to believe that they aren't tired or bothered by me, but after a full weekend of texting a total of 10 people and only getting responses from 2, the rest full on actively ignoring my messages....
it's hard to believe that I'm not in some way shape or form funfamentally annoying.

I need to complain about one thing and it's that you pay $300 to be at the back of the floor where there is no tiered seating and everyone stands up so unless you are very very tall you can see Taylor maybe 5% of the time if you're lucky and people's heads and shoulders in front of you are positioned just right. Its literally the worst value for money seat in the whole stadium by a huge amount because if you're all the way at the back of the stands you paid like $70 and she looks tiny but you can see Taylor and the entire stage 100% of the time. And if you got a restricted view seat for even less than that at the side of the stage you can still see her whenever she's not on the main stage so that's still like 30-40% of the time and we paid more than 3x the amount to barely see anything at all

1 more day here and then I'm gonna be heading back up to my apartment for the first time in over 2 weeks. Haven't stayed there since this all began. I've grown a bit of a routine here, and I'll be right back to my apartment, but without the prior norms of it.
It's home though. It's home.
I'll have to do a ton of cleaning and rearranging tho to try to fit as much of my father's furniture within my apartment. My apartment is so small and the furnitures so many. I'm determined tho. I'm gonna fit as much as I can. Took measurements today even of all the things I wanna take, so I can puzzle it out as I go.
I. Also. Need to bring June to the vet. Bc she's got worms. Lol. Lmao even. I am trying to not think about it rn.
