This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

People turn to escapism because they are struggling to make connections in the outside world, not the other way around.

What if I don't turn to escapism, but also don't make connections... because both are really weird and boring?

And I just kinda chill out with my dog and cook a lot and learn shit. folks ask me what I'm up to lately and i'm like 'oh I'm taking professional cooking classes and getting yelled at by chefs and making awesome food!' and they slowly back away.

sometimes i wonder if being a weeb would be more socially acceptable.
