That resonates SO HARD.
Thank you. I was missing the words to explain why I feel so horribly lonely.
Nobody in RL is interested in what is important to me. And they keep telling me that the online friends who do are not real. (They are. But try explaining that to someone who doesn't live online.)
@Firlefanz I posted this late one night thinking "wow, this really helps to explain how I'm feeling" and woke up the following morning to so many others feeling the same.
You're not alone <3.

Sometimes it feels like I'm existing in my own little silo for self-preservation.
@marisa It's a precarious time to contradict false and harmful paradigms. Speaking fearlessly provides safety for others to do the same. Thanks for sharing this passage. -

@marisa unless who they are is a bigoted fucking asshole, and what they are passionate about is racism, fascism and overall ashattery, in which case i recommend they shut up the fuck up and live in an empty room.

@marisa I strongly believe that knowing how to speak your truth is only 50% of the work.
The other 50% is finding and maintaining safe enough connections and environments to even be able to speak in the first place without being harmed.

@marisa
alone vs. lonelyOne is lonely in spirit, not in area.

@marisa even more interesting when I consider that the "most famous self-help Jungian of our time" promotes the sort of language and behaviors that alienate people from one another

Urusula K Le Guin's father was an anthropologist at the University of California at Berkeley. In 1911 he met and sheltered/studied/befriended/worked with the last living member of the Yahi-Yana native people of the area, Ishi.
'Ishi, which means "man" in the Yana language, is an adopted name. The anthropologist Alfred Kroeber gave him this name because in the Yahi culture, tradition demanded that he not speak his own name until formally introduced by another Yahi. When asked his name, he said: "I have none, because there were no people to name me"'

@peha
In the Earthsea? Stands to reason. I think there are quite a few cultures which are chary of sharing real names. -
