SuperNova Afterglow Spews Embers of Time

Rated: 18+ · Book · Writing · #1300042

All that remains: in afterlife as 'mainstream' blogger, with what little I know. 20k views

859 (including private) entries:
189 entries with the word “love”
0 entries with the word “hate”
Rando search on a whim, 4.12.25

Two blogs: 1313 entries, 278 entries with ‘love’, 0 ‘hate’.
This was not by design, but dislike for a word I prefer not utter. I’ve had more than enough. Frankly, should be twice as as much love. What’s holding me back?

Search engine failed…we have hate…even haterade…let this be a lesson in trusting your sources and spreading falsities.

Some burn to the ground
Others removed brick by brick
Redesign for the times
When the lease comes up
Or just fold up

When you have a bad day and need a reason...

"Whoever fights monsters should see to it…he does not become a monster.” - Some guy, I guess. Look it up?
I’ve been to the abyss and back. Not so bad.

The loneliest happy person you'd ever meet, when not the saddest person who needs to be alone.

In an ever-changing world, we need to handle topics at the ready. If you roll over and give in to the narrative without lending a voice, might as well hand over your civil liberties. Voices could connect to true conscience and spirit for honest and open discourse. Why feel so redacted?

Unify on issues or don't but put drama aside. Open minds require complete objectivity. Or, agree to disagree and have a beer. Just writing what I feel without the narrative-altering mind f---ing with my head.

[MY Chorus]
In your house, I long to be
Room by room, patiently
I'll wait for you there, like a stone
I'll wait for you there, alone
- Chris Cornell, RIP

"Some other stuff"
I'm in love with carefully chosen words, arranged just so, audible, edible, to inhale. I attempt to post new poems and epiphanies daily with some links to what inspires.

I am legally blind with a rare, genetic form of glaucoma. I'm described as "end stage" after two successful surgeries, still subject to further vision loss. Cataracts complicating matters. Writing Can get strenuous but seldom deters what yearns to emerge, despite a documented history of depression and recently diagnosed ADHD and undefinable social disorders and/or PTSD. Ammunition, or blanks?

My recent poetry:

BOOK

The Absence of Wavelength and Sight

(18+)
A nothing from nowhere cast his words to a world wide wind, hindered by periphery.
#1149750 by Brian K Compton, random?

Sometimes epiphanies about my insights on writing and life and what goes on...

"Blah, blah, blah"
Making sense of life is maddening. Why do I need to know, when truth may not actually exist? Learning to accept would be a better pursuit? Flailing about in my own mediocrity, hoping to bust out.

I am visible. You can put a face with a name. I would like to see other writers, too. Fiction is what you write, not who you are.

Reinventing myself. I couldn't continue on the path I was on and needed a fresh start. This time around I want to put the focus on writing and the world outside of this community as it affects my life.

I realize now that I have been baring my chest a bit more, as when young. fake me much more boring and unliberated than the real me.

A world arriving as silent as that blossom in your garden that I told you about...

AI Overview
Empathy in the autistic

While both autistic adults and adults with empathy are common, the experience of empathy in autistic individuals can be complex. Some autistic individuals may have lower levels of empathy, while others experience heightened or "hyper-empathy". The experience of empathy in autism can also be characterized as a form of empathic disequilibrium, where emotional and cognitive empathy are out of sync.

Empathic Disequilibrium:
Research suggests that some autistic individuals may have lower levels of emotional empathy compared to cognitive empathy, leading to a disconnect between understanding others' emotions and feeling them emotionally.

Hyper-Empathy:
Some autistic individuals may experience heightened or "hyper-empathy," where they are intensely attuned to and overwhelmed by the emotions of others.

Varied Experiences:
Empathy is not a uniform trait in autism. Some individuals may struggle with recognizing emotions, while others may be highly sensitive and empathetic.

Empathy as a Spectrum:
Empathy exists on a spectrum, and individuals with varying levels of empathy are common in the general population.

Developmental Factors:
Empathy is believed to develop over time, and individuals may exhibit varying levels of empathy at different stages of their lives.

Social Communication Impairments:
ASD is characterized by difficulties with social interaction and communication, which can impact how individuals experience and express empathy.
ASD Support:
It is important to note autism can be diagnosed later in life, and individuals may benefit from support and understanding their unique experiences with empathy.

Stop on by. I’ll give you one of ours.

This is Onyx. No one can have him.

He’s the guy that plays tag. He goes and hides where he thinks we can’t see him and calls out for someone to chase him.

He’s barely a cat.

I wish I had a cat. I'm alone too much when I'm in Montana. I love saying hello to cats and dogs.

Self-pub?

Amazon Kindle publishing for online and print on demand. Easy upload. Can have a print copy sent before approving release. All kinds of self-promotional tools.

I’d have 20 books by now. ADHD, OCD, low vision, other stuff. It’s been the process that’s served me.

Possible children’s book now? for my niece’s daughter in Sweden who discovered a love for English and is teaching her preschool sibling. So, I proposed writing some books (to wife) to help cultivate that interest with some stories of their mom when she lived with us over a decade ago.

Need a purpose to write something that actually feeds my soul. I wrote and shared a short story for contest last year that might catapult. Self-publication wouldn’t seem ‘vanity’.

It’s not a waste of time in this way, such as a personal biography to share with family to preserve heritage. My kids know squat about my parents and other family members unmet. MIL just did this to produce a hardcover tome to give to all. She got a format to follow from some publishing company.

I could do a book of poetry. Just don’t care anymore.
