A Final? Thread 🧵 Suspending a lifetime of privacy, mystery & magic post 2020, came with an unexpected super happy chapter (wanna refrain from verbiage like ending) but this personal pivot happening while the web pivoted to something I can’t align with came at a cost. 👇

To even begin to understand how uncharacteristically painful this tmi transparency period was. You’d had to know how I operated, felt & thought the decades leading up to this. Context in a tdlr future. What an exhausting rebellion. 👇

A unicorn, trapped in a cage. Tim curry with agent smith levels of duplication & access. It was never going to be easy. But a perfect storm of purpose, survival, pride, fear, despair & urgency had me stuck with no alternative to be fully open & fully honest at all times. 👇

Honest is the default, expression is the gift so why did this backfire while also succeeding in its primary objective. Because, I hate attention, I hate praise, I hate talking about myself & spent a lifetime artistically trying to pull a prince & remove all branding & me from art. 👇

Again, no stranger would understand but anyone who knew me long term personally or as a long term fan knew I was leading up to a Ninja Vanish. I live to express & connect. A lifetime of expression connected with strangers & made positive impact. That’s all I ever care/d about. 👇

Being an idealist, being empathic & being consistent in trying to the change you wish to see is not for the faint of heart. Not in a world where 90% have given up, and confuse progress & adapting with purposeful enshitification as strength & pride. Truly exhausting. Expressing logic became party pooper stigma. 👇

Sadly, I’m too wise to trick myself into just leaning into the choas & try to have fun. Real humans are behind virtual accounts, & can you guess how many of those I shared my love, vulnerability & honesty to have checked in on me? After making sure context was public. Good guess 👇

So now we all trapped in this new virtual world where connecting over anything meaningful has become more difficult by design. But it’s still humans making choices. I see how most are choosing to live & It feels silly to keep expressing honestly, participating & sharing in a shallow pool people pee in daily 👇

This all breaks the purpose of “Proof of Life” (continued…) because I no longer believe in any of the places or people in this virtual landscape to further share my story. Good or Bad. If this is all fine, and I’m the crazy one, Bet. If it’s all me & in my head. That’s where it will all stay. 👇
