- 23:14]Star Colony:The bitches the bitches the bitches galore.
- [23:14]Star Colony:They call and they belch and they shoot foam some more.
- [23:15]Star Colony:Hey, Tighe, what are your thoughts on this?
- [23:15]Star Colony:
- [23:15]Star Colony:David said he thought it sounded interesting.
- [23:20]Cecilia:Yeh sounds weird and kind of creepy.
- [23:21]Star Colony:Hey, Tighe, let's have sex.
- [23:21]Star Colony:...But more seriously, like,
- [23:21]Star Colony:May we get in a voice call for just one night?
- [23:21]Star Colony:It's fine if you don't want to.
- [23:22]Cecilia:eh
- [23:22]Cecilia:no not really
- [23:22]Cecilia:i still don't see the whole
- [23:22]Cecilia:thing that you were supposed to do
- [23:22]Cecilia:I mean, it's possible that you did what I asked, but I have no way of knowing without like
- [23:22]Cecilia:you doing something
- [23:22]Star Colony:...What you asked?
- [23:23]Cecilia:yes
- [23:23]Star Colony:I... don't remember you asking anything.
- [23:23]Star Colony:Wait- didn't you ask me to like,
- [23:23]Star Colony:Show I can change, and not just say sorry?
- [23:24]Star Colony:There was some term you used to describe it, the fact I was thinking of coming up with new ways of saying "sorry".
- [23:24]Cecilia:i have no idea
- [23:24]Cecilia:i just know that
- [23:24]Cecilia:saying sorry is not enough at this point because words are cheap
- [23:24]Star Colony:And I "figured" what I was supposed to do was be more productive.
- [23:25]Cecilia:actions and time spent are legitimate metrics to judge whether or not you get to come back.
- [23:25]Star Colony:I'm doubting coming back is possible, at this point.
- [23:25]Star Colony:I will admit, I wish I hadn't re-contacted Moxie, but like,
- [23:26]Star Colony:eh.
- [23:26]Cecilia:Eh?
- [23:26]Star Colony:I think this is just me being stupid, but I guess I was kind of upset to be dropped, like it felt a little... unfair.
- [23:26]Star Colony:Like, okay,
- [23:26]Star Colony:How do I describe this?
- [23:27]Star Colony:Idk what I was goign through, (I'm guessing obsession), but like,
- [23:27]Star Colony:It was kind of upsetting to have felt myself getting better, just for you guys to be like "lol fuck you" and then drop me, and then have me like
- [23:27]Star Colony:become stupid again
- [23:27]Star Colony:Like, okay.
- [23:27]Star Colony:I'm not going to say it was wrong for you to have done that.
- [23:27]Cecilia:but you felt like it was wrong
- [23:27]Star Colony:Nor am I going to say that like,
- [23:28]Star Colony:I didn't fuck up.
- [23:28]Star Colony:yeh okay nvm
- [23:28]Star Colony:I'm just being stupid.
- [23:28]Cecilia:but you felt like it was wrong
- [23:28]Star Colony:yes
- [23:28]Star Colony:again:
- [23:28]Cecilia:uh huh
- [23:28]Star Colony:i'm being stupid.
- [23:28]Cecilia:that is a cop out
- [23:28]Cecilia:just saying
- [23:28]Cecilia:denying that you feel a certain way is not like
- [23:28]Cecilia:healthy
- [23:29]Cecilia:like it would be one thing if you viewed your feeling as actually stupid or wrong
- [23:29]Star Colony:I'm not denying it's a way I feel, I'm just saying it was a stupid way of thinking.
- [23:29]Cecilia:but I have a feeling that calling it stupid is just a way to signal that you want to be back with us
- [23:29]Cecilia:also
- [23:29]Cecilia:that's the thing
- [23:29]Cecilia:i don't think
- [23:30]Cecilia:...let me put it this way: I don't feel like you actually think it's stupid because you keeup bringing up points that cover your ass
- [23:30]Cecilia:and you don't regard those points with skepticism
- [23:31]Star Colony:I mean, that's fair, yeah.
- [23:31]Cecilia:like
- [23:31]Cecilia:mostly it's just the way you phrase things
- [23:31]Cecilia:where instead of going
- [23:32]Cecilia:"It feels unfair. I know that is what it feels like, but I can enumerate all the different ways that you guys were fair to me, and damn is that feeling wrong. I just--I just keep coming up with these stupid excuses, and I feel like you guys might help me if you took them apart for me? Maybe I'll get rid of it then."
- [23:33]Cecilia:you say
- [23:33]Cecilia:"It feels unfair, but maaaan that is a stupid feeling man. I am stupid."
- [23:33]Star Colony:...What?
- [23:33]Star Colony:Okay, I think I get what you're saying.
- [23:34]Star Colony:Like, basically, I'm saying like, "I know I did all these wrong things, but can you take them apart for me so that I can tell what's wrong and fix it myself?"
- [23:34]Star Colony:Instead of like
- [23:34]Star Colony:"Hey I figured this out myself! Here's what I have to show you I've changed!"
- [23:34]Star Colony:(Also, I won't specify what, but a recent event has just made changing for me possible.)
- [23:34]Star Colony:(Like, I was going through a state of mental recovery still. It was much slower without you guys, but it was happening nonetheless.)
- [23:35]Cecilia:Not quite what I meant.
- [23:35]Star Colony:Oh, all right.
- [23:35]Star Colony:My apologies for the misunderstanding, then.
- [23:35]Cecilia:aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
- [23:35]Cecilia:why are you apologizing
- [23:36]Cecilia:aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
- [23:36]Star Colony:I like eggs.
- [23:36]Cecilia:aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
- [23:36]Star Colony:Because I feel bad for not understanding?
- [23:36]Cecilia:no that is
- [23:36]Cecilia:why
- [23:36]Cecilia:wuahfidshfiusahfiudsahfiudsahfdsahfiudsafdsa
- [23:36]Star Colony:lol
- [23:36]Star Colony:why am i laughing
- [23:36]Cecilia:ok
- [23:37]Cecilia:explain the apology to me real quick
- [23:37]Star Colony:???
- [23:37]Star Colony:
- Star ColonyToday at 11:36 PM
- Because I feel bad for not understanding?
- [23:38]Cecilia:e l a b o r a t e
- [23:38]Star Colony:I didn't understand what you said, which means it was a waste of effort on your part.
- [23:39]Star Colony:And thus, I feel bad.
- [23:39]Star Colony:And thus, I am sorry.
- [23:39]Cecilia:ok
- [23:39]Star Colony:(this is stupid)
- [23:40]Cecilia:well, let me tell you that I don't feel stupid for asking
- [23:40]Cecilia:because there was
- [23:40]Cecilia:another alternative
- [23:40]Cecilia:that I thought you were going to ay
- [23:40]Cecilia:say*
- [23:40]Cecilia:but thankfully you didn't
- [23:40]Star Colony:Oh? And what's that?
- [23:40]Star Colony:If I had to make a guess, actually.
- [23:41]Star Colony:"I'm sorry, but like, I think you should try explaining again."
- [23:42]Star Colony:(I find it interesting, that I feel different parts of my brain being active when I used different modes of thinking.)
- [23:42]Star Colony:(And I feel like the more intelligent part is the part I feel at night, so... I've just been using that part of my brain more and more often.)
- [23:42]Star Colony:(I mean, you'd think "why the fuck didn't you do that in the first place")
- [23:43]Cecilia:"I feel bad because I'm not getting it, because I'm failing to better myself. It's showing how difficult or maybe even how impossible things like this are going to be for me. That is why I feel bad: I don't see a way forward and I'm feeling despair, Tighe. I'm apologizing to myself."
- [23:43]Cecilia:is what I was thinking
- [23:43]Star Colony:Oh, okay.
- [23:43]Star Colony:Yeah that seems stupid.
- [23:43]Cecilia:it
- [23:43]Cecilia:is not
- [23:43]Cecilia:stupid
- [23:43]Cecilia:that is not specific enough
- [23:43]Cecilia:it is not actually
- [23:43]Cecilia:a BAD mindset to have
- [23:43]Cecilia:besides the apologizing to yourself part
- [23:44]Cecilia:but wanting to improve is never a bad idea.
- [23:44]Cecilia:No, what is actually wrong with what is being said here?
- [23:45]Star Colony:Hmm...
- [23:45]Star Colony:Second guess is that it's like, I'm emotionally fucked.
- [23:45]Star Colony:And thus, incapable of improving, due to my mental state.
- [23:45]Star Colony:"I can't move forward. I'm feeling helpless, Tighe, please help me!"
- [23:46]Cecilia:i'm
- [23:46]Cecilia:kind of weirded out
- [23:46]Star Colony:...?
- [23:46]Cecilia:right now
- [23:46]Star Colony:Why?
- [23:47]Cecilia:like, I have a model of you and like
- [23:47]Cecilia:again it's how you're phrasing everything
- [23:47]Cecilia:that is sending this really conflicting signal
- [23:47]Cecilia:where like your statements are said in a way that reflects what I want to hear
- [23:48]Cecilia:but then when you try to explain why I would like that statement, you don't identify what I find important
- [23:48]Cecilia:and it ust
- [23:49]Cecilia:and that just makes me think that, no, you don't actually endorse what you're saying, you're just copying the wording that we wanted you to use
- [23:49]Cecilia:without any of the emotion or belief behind it
- [23:49]Star Colony:I mean, I can understand why you'd think that, yeah.
- [23:49]Star Colony:Like,
- [23:49]Star Colony:bleh
- [23:50]Star Colony:To be fair, I am sort of just guessing like,
- [23:50]Star Colony:What it is, like, that's not to say
- [23:50]Star Colony:I'm picking randomly, like, I'm still thinking about it, but like,
- [23:50]Star Colony:I'm being stupid, I think.
- [23:50]Star Colony:Which is why like
- [23:50]Star Colony:I'm not finding the answer you're looking for.
- [23:50]Star Colony:Hold on, lt me think a bit longer, if that's all right?
- [23:51]Cecilia:take your time
- [23:52]Star Colony:(I feel like I'm playing a phoenix wright game, trying to identify the part of the testimony that... isn't quite right.)
- [23:52]Star Colony:(except I probably shouldn't be guessing.)
- [23:52]Star Colony:(I'm sure you get what I mean, though.)
- [23:53]Star Colony:It seems like the poblem lies in beng self-defeatist, and like,
- [23:53]Star Colony:Asking you to carry my weight,
- [23:54]Star Colony:But I can't idetify what specifically about that is the problem here.
- [23:54]Cecilia:all i want to know is
- [23:55]Cecilia:whether you think that is what i would say is your problem
- [23:55]Star Colony:...?
- [23:55]Star Colony:What do you mean by that?
- [23:55]Cecilia:do you think that I think that your problem is the self-defeatest, going-to-us-at-the-first-sign-of-trouble thing?
- [23:56]Star Colony:I mean, yeah, that does seem to me like what you'd be thinking.
- [23:56]Star Colony:I could be wrong about that,
- [23:57]Star Colony:But I think it's a pretty damn good reason to be like
- [23:57]Star Colony:"alex wtf your wqhuoafnefwaifn"
- [23:57]Star Colony:Tighe...?
- [00:00]Star Colony:I think this means I said something wrong.
- [00:02]Cecilia:yeah
- [00:02]Cecilia:that's all it is
- [00:02]Cecilia:i just
- [00:02]Cecilia:don't felel like yo're thinking about me
- [00:02]Cecilia:or david
- [00:02]Cecilia:and it shows in how you're anticipating problems with your thinking
- [00:02]Cecilia:it's not that what you said is bad
- [00:02]Cecilia:hell
- [00:03]Star Colony:Oh.
- [00:03]Cecilia:that could be a possible explanation for why
- [00:03]Cecilia:you're doing bad
- [00:03]Cecilia:but that's not
- [00:03]Cecilia:what
- [00:03]Cecilia:i care about at the moment
- [00:03]Star Colony:It's... that I'm not taking you guys seriously, or for that matter,
- [00:03]Star Colony:Your guys's concerns.
- [00:03]Star Colony:I'm thinking
- [00:03]Star Colony:"MAN MY LIFE SUCKS"
- [00:03]Star Colony:"IDC WHAT TIGHE AND DAVID ARE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW"
- [00:03]Star Colony:"LEMME GET THEIR HELP LOL"
- [00:03]Star Colony:And then I died.
- [00:03]Star Colony:Yeah?
- [00:04]Star Colony:Because if that's the case, then I do feel pretty bad.
- [00:04]Cecilia:uh
- [00:04]Cecilia:like slight alteration
- [00:05]Cecilia:"MAN MY LIFE SUCKS, IDC WHAT TIGHE AND DAVID ARE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW, I NEED TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME DUDE"
- [00:06]Cecilia:like, yes you should try to solve your problems on your own, but that's not what I am focusing on
- [00:06]Cecilia:right
- [00:06]Star Colony:Oh, in other words,
- [00:06]Star Colony:I'm trying to figure out my problems, which is a good thing, but I'm using you guys to do it, yeah?
- [00:06]Star Colony:Hence why you changed "lemme get their help lol"
- [00:06]Star Colony:to
- [00:06]Star Colony:"i need to figure out what's wrong with me"
- [00:06]Star Colony:to highlight the whole
- [00:06]Cecilia:no
- [00:06]Cecilia:no
- [00:06]Cecilia:no
- [00:07]Cecilia:no
- [00:07]Cecilia:no
- [00:07]Cecilia:no
- [00:07]Cecilia:NO
- [00:07]Cecilia:hah...
- [00:07]Cecilia:i edited that out to specifically
- [00:07]Cecilia:not have you think that I had your idea
- [00:08]Cecilia:of being bothered by your asking for help
- [00:08]Cecilia:at no point
- [00:08]Cecilia:did i think that it would be annoying or something
- [00:09]Cecilia:all I thought was that I wasn't going to help you with it because you kept not being able to move forward with my help
- [00:09]Cecilia:so
- [00:09]Cecilia:you needed to do it on your own
- [00:09]Star Colony:Yeah no, you're just trying to say that like, using you guys as my go-to is like, bad.
- [00:09]Star Colony:Maybe not annoying for you, but like,
- [00:09]Cecilia:not because of some intrinsic badness of asking for help, but because or something else
- [00:09]Star Colony:I need to figure out my own problems instead of being like
- [00:09]Cecilia:not
- [00:09]Star Colony:"Hey I can just use the David Tighe 3000 to solve all my problems"
- [00:10]Cecilia:ok
- [00:10]Cecilia:look
- [00:10]Cecilia:i did not
- [00:10]Cecilia:conciously
- [00:10]Cecilia:think
- [00:10]Cecilia:about this
- [00:10]Cecilia:it was not something fundamental that i thouhgt about long and hard
- [00:10]Cecilia:it was not even something deeply held
- [00:10]Cecilia:so no
- [00:10]Cecilia:that is not
- [00:10]Cecilia:what i was thinking
- [00:10]Cecilia:i was not thinking about the help thing
- [00:11]Cecilia:i was thinking more along the lines of being bothered
- [00:11]Cecilia:because you weren't able to properly grok what was going on with us
- [00:11]Cecilia:and why we felt the way that we did
- [00:11]Star Colony:I had a feeling that there was something like that the entire time I was messaging you guys, yeah.
- [00:12]Star Colony:Even if it was only sub-conscious.
- [00:12]Star Colony:Hmm...
- [00:12]Star Colony:Admittedly, though, I failed to guess that, out loud to be specific.
- [00:12]Cecilia:maybw maybe not
- [00:13]Cecilia:anyway
- [00:13]Cecilia:good luck
- [00:13]Star Colony:Good luck with what?
- [00:13]Cecilia:well there's the emotional aspect of your problem
- [00:13]Cecilia:where you didn't figure out how we were feeling
- [00:13]Cecilia:and still
- [00:14]Cecilia:apparently don't get that
- [00:14]Cecilia:but no, you don't get how to improve or why what we were saying was important
- [00:14]Cecilia:so
- [00:14]Cecilia:demonstrate that you can change
- [00:14]Cecilia:ok?
- [00:14]Cecilia:please
- [00:14]Cecilia:it doesn't need to be tonight
- [00:15]Star Colony:I... okay, that's fine, but like... what?
- [00:15]Cecilia:or even tomorrow
- [00:15]Star Colony:When you said "good luck", did you mean like,
- [00:15]Cecilia:to both of those things
- [00:15]Star Colony:You want me to do things on my own like, for real? Permanently?
- [00:15]Star Colony:I mean if so that makes sense but like
- [00:15]Cecilia:good luck in demonstrating the capacity to change and figuring out how we felt
- [00:15]Star Colony:ugh
- [00:15]Star Colony:I'm doing it again, aren't I.
- [00:16]Star Colony:Asking you to help me like
- [00:16]Star Colony:figure this out
- [00:16]Star Colony:so
- [00:16]Star Colony:I'm going to stop doing that now.
- [00:16]Cecilia:i'll throw you a bone again
- [00:16]Cecilia:so like
- [00:17]Cecilia:imagine that you were in my position with David
- [00:17]Cecilia:and I were the one who was estranged
- [00:17]Cecilia:would you feel annoyed at me if I came up and like asked for a direction or even a hint?
- [00:18]Star Colony:Hmm...
- [00:18]Star Colony:I mean, if I was in a good mood? I'd probably be like "ok whatever" and just tell you what to do.
- [00:19]Star Colony:But I feel like it'd get tiring to have to repeat myself, yeah.
- [00:19]Cecilia:ok well
- [00:19]Cecilia:you know what would make it feel totally worth it to explain something to you
- [00:20]Cecilia:well, I'm not going to tell you what it is that would make it worth it, but there are definitely things that would make explaining tons of shit worth it to you
- [00:20]Cecilia:and within that
- [00:20]Cecilia:you will find a shadow of the solution to your larger problem
- [00:20]Cecilia:i think
- [00:21]Cecilia:if you want my actual feelings, I'm more annoyed by the faux apologies and bullshit
- [00:21]Cecilia:than the requests for help
- [00:21]Cecilia:i don't really
- [00:21]Cecilia:think that
- [00:21]Cecilia:the requests for help is what you should focus on
- [00:21]Cecilia:i guess
- [00:22]Star Colony:That seems reasonable, yeah.
- [00:22]Cecilia:anyway
- [00:23]Cecilia:good luck
- [00:23]Star Colony:All right, thanks Tighe.
