Liah's Diary
4th of November, 2025
Happy beginning of the month, all of you.You know, I've started playing with toys again.
Hasbro sells these really cute rinky-dink ten centimeter action figures of Star Wars characters. I bought one as a gag gift for my sister initially for us to put in our living room, but I found myself playing with it and genuinely enjoying the sort of improvised nature of play, and bought a few more.
Currently, I'm looking at a little three and a half inch figure of Aurra Sing posed on my desk - She's a bounty hunter who had a possibly less than five second background appearance in Star Wars Episode 1, and I fell in love with her unusual, mean look as a kid. Having a little toy of her that I can play around with is surprisingly incredibly therapeutic, and it's just fun.
I think, as adults, we are quick to dismiss things as childish at our own expense, because it's seen that enjoying something just for the sake of enjoying it is sort of an immature thing to do.
I really disagree with this. Have fun.Looking at the random speculation and pot-stirring about me on Doomworld gave me an intense tension headache, and so I've made myself a pot of hot honey and lemon water. I actually don't like hot honey and lemon that much, but I always get it in my head that it's good for me if I don't feel well. I think I'm a little gullible in that way.I'd be lying if I said I wasn't incredibly frustrated. I think that what people are saying about me is completely founded on what people would like to imagine is representative of who I am, and that the truth of what I believe, what I've actually said or intended, isn't relevant. This is true both for people who like and dislike me. This isn't the first time in my life that people have tried to pick fights and stir the pot on my behalf in an attempt to defend me in some way, and it's always against my direct wishes.In the end: Grow up.
Without a desire to correctly understand me or my motivations and beliefs, if you only want to masturbate with a performance of defending or condemning someone without understanding that person, your life and energy is better spent elsewhere.Stop fighting on my behalf, stop taking potshots at a facsimile of me, stop talking about me. I am a non-entity, and not relevant to you.Go gently into the world and have some decency.
