Fuck Logic. And using complete sentences. And having a point.

Share on Twitter:


I feel like this is the part of the evening when I'm supposed to say something profound. Or rant about the insanity that is growing up in a hostile, heteronormative, cissexist, classist, racist fucking world where I'm supposed to believe that "things will get better but lol fuck logic just sit tight and wait for it." And I could talk about how I feel so utterly fucked up right now and how I don't even remember who I'm supposed to be anymore because it changes every second of every day... and Slytherin Yuppie Kiely is back with a vengeance. Elitist snob. (Well, really, when have I ever been anything but? The Dark Angel of Death. That's how it started. Princess of Hell itself... I wanted to master Death, then. I wanted more than anything to belong to Death, to make Death belong to me. There was a demon, a devil. My father. It was the strangest of nightmares, but I think I understand it better now that he's gone... Really. All of this started from some crazy dream I had during my parents' divorce. Well, just before it. My father's pretty much always been an abusive fucking bastard. And Kiely [pronounced like Kylie, not Keely] is an Irish/Celtic name, typically a surname but obviously also a first name too. Though I use an Australian transcription for pronunciation... I don't really want to go into all of my reasons for picking that name, mostly because I'm not entirely sure what they are, but yeah. So there, you have the story of my pseudonym and alter ego. Nightmare of a suicidal, depressed, and somewhat delusional, lonely teenager.) Still, I was raised to be a princess of sorts, and apparently somewhere on my mother's side is "royal blood," so...) anyway, I digress from my utter lack of a point. Seems a tad redundant, I know. Or something like that.

You'll have to forgive me. I haven't been sleeping well. I haven't had anything to drink tonight, or all week if I remember, but I still feel... fucked up. Out of my head. Better out of it than in it, I suppose...Which, if you were wondering, is why I spend so much time on Tumblr instead of dealing with the real world, or even writing here. It's almost like a support group. Well, in a lot of ways it is one... And even when I have absolutely nothing to say, I don't have to worry about not having anything to share. I just reblog. And boom, connections are made. Though then you also have days when you feel like shit because no one cares and you KNOW that no one cares, but whatever. What else is new. I'm having an interesting time reconnecting with old friends anyway. At least, the ones who have always mattered... and in some ways I'd like to think I've always mattered to them too.

Speaking of Tumblr, Hunger Games. I'd rather spend a million nights reading about dystopian societies than living one more day in this fucked up world. We are the Capitol. If you haven't a clue what I'm talking about, I'd seriously suggest reading this trilogy. (Despite what you may have heard, it is not anything like fucking Twilight, it is NOT about a love triangle though yes there is one in it, and it is ABSOLUTELY NOT about some weak little girl who cries over boys who don't love her the way she wants them to. Katniss is amazing and a worthy heroine. Katniss is INCREDIBLE. But ANYWAY...) Once you get around to it... The Capitol.  Everything we shouldn't be. Everything we are. Why are we so utterly fucked up? Or is it just me?

You know what I was thinking earlier? About all of this supposed brilliance I'm told I have. Where the fuck is it hiding now, that I can't think straight enough to write anymore. I don't think it ever really existed. But my biggest problem yet - I don't know what I want anymore. I don't know. And it's fucking me up. I just... exist.

Fuck logic.

Updates, Life, and What I've Been Up To

Share on Twitter:


So I'm having issues with Blogger actually posting what I write... Last night I typed up this whole long thing and it came up blank when I posted. Fucking hell... I think Blogger hates Chrome, so I'm back in Firefox for the moment... Odds of this getting through? Let's find out.

Anyway! Updates because it's been forever! I have a new job. I'm out of retail. I sit in an office for 8 hours a day, minus a lunch break. I work for a school, and that's as much detail as you're getting out of me.
I survived Hurricane Irene. It was... Well, it was (thankfully) not as bad as we expected, and not as bad as we had been prepared for. Please excuse my use of a preposition at the end of the last sentence.

I haven't a clue what went down in London after the weekend of riots... I haven't heard a single thing since. Well, a few things, but nothing particularly worth mentioning. It also might help if I take my head of out the Potterverse long enough to pay attention to the rest of the world, but I'm not really willing to do that, so... Good times. (Besides, YOU try being utterly smitten with a fictional character. It takes up a lot of brain power to live with that kind of delusion every day. Trust me. [creys].)

You may have noticed my Tumblr links are down. No, I didn't delete, but I had to change my name because my bitch sister is a bitch. If you want or need to find me, you'll know where to look. And if not, come find me on Twitter and we'll talk. (Just, if you're going to message me on AIM, please for the love of all that is noodley and covered in cheese email me first or leave a comment here so I know you're not just some random creeper? Thank you.)

How's this for useless information, eh? Anyway, just thought I'd let you know what I'm up to and why I've been so quiet lately... I'm back to (sort of) caring what goes on in the world, if only because my new job forces me to have some sort of human interaction on a daily basis (and you can expect MANY rants about the state of education and socialization and gender/body image/etc.). So I'll be around more often now... Especially for these last half hours at work where I can type and read and multitask because what I'm doing requires less of my attention...

Right. So. I'll see you all later ;)

#London Riots

Share on Twitter:

I'm currently watching BBC and trying to figure out all that's going on in London right now... Riots, fires, looting... This is the 3rd day. I'm on my phone so I can't properly link to a bunch news articles right now, but go here for up to date news and links. (my tumblr) If anyone has more information or contacts in the area sharing informatiom about what's happening, tweet me @darkangelkiely or leave a message in my Tumblr inbox.

Stay safe, London.
