I understand that social networking sites like Facebook exist so that people can connect with others like themselves. What I have learned
from Facebook is that I'm not like anyone else, that no one is interested in me or the things I am interested in, that I'm a most peculiar man
who doesn't belong anywhere. Every time I go there I feel more like a misfit, an outsider, an anachronism. When the urge to return comes
again, I shall try very hard to resist it.

Loneliness has followed me my whole life.
Everywhere: Facebook, YouTube, AuthorsDen, everywhere.
There's no excape. I'm God's lonely man.

Five days on Facebook:
I returned to Facebook briefly in 2023 to let people know about some Local and Indie
Music samplers I'd created (a tribute to the Omaha Music Scene I love so much).
It was a huge mistake that I hope I shall never repeat.
I'm an invisible man there, and no one is interested in the things I create.
I don't seem to fit in anywhere.


Credo

I have no god. I have no mother.
I have no friend. I have no lover.
I AM! Alone in this world.
I AM! The Solitary Man.
I have learned to accept despair;
to live my life without dreams.
Life goes on. I accept things as they are.
The solitary man walks alone.

Mark Sebring (2018)

"If it was me dying on the sidewalk, you'd walk right over me.
I pass you every day and you don't notice me."
🤡 Arthur Fleck

But wasn't he a most peculiar man?
A hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore.
Seems I'm not alone in being alone.


Finale (Día de Muerte 💀)

Maybe I'll die tomorrow.
And no one will even notice.
Or maybe I'll die today.
No one would ever know.

And I walk alone.
And I talk to myself.
And no one knows who I am.
They turn away.
They think I'm a freak.
Because I'm not like them.

Maybe I've already died.
And no one even noticed.
Or maybe I'll die tomorrow.
No one will ever know.

The Ravyn: Riding the Cyclone by Jennifer Sloan by Erin Kelly-Moen

This book has been eight years in the making. It is mostly a jumble of thoughts written down in old spiral notebooks and hidden in the bottom drawer underneath various manuals for software packages and hardware long since turned obsolete.
