now i'm basically feeling like scratch is as addicting as an average social media platform. i'm trying to stay off a lot of apps because it's not good for my eyes + mental health. i want to spend time with my irl friends and family, not spend three hours making a terrible thumbnail. it's just so hard to keep up with new people who are so talented. i was so happy to see that i had earned 35 followers in four weeks, because of my other dead accounts, but other people gain 35 in a day. i'm constantly glued to screens, and i kinda wish i never found out abt the aesthetic comm in scratch. (i'm so sorry to anyone in the community hearing my whiny rant.) there are so many people who just want to make drama and hurt other people. i don't know if i like this anymore. it's hard to keep the friends you make here, because most of them leave. if you are a popular scratcher, you are probably just seeing your close friends fade away and get replaced by random people who say "can we plz be friends". so i'm sorry that i probably wasted your time. -yuki '-'
