I know this is a controversial discussion for some reason—or at least it was a few months ago—but fiction does not equate to reality. If you are unable to discern between the two, that is your problem and yours alone. Writing is a pastime that helps a lot of people escape their own reality and cope with their struggles, and if what someone is writing poses an issue for you, then just please keep scrolling. Block the creator. Blacklist the tags. Nobody is forcing you to consume their content. You never know what someone is dealing with in their life. What someone depicts in a fictional outlet does not always mirror their actual views or beliefs.

'Can't you guess?' Fred asked. 'I dare say I could,' said Fergus, still wanting to continue his inquisition. 'I suppose I could. But what you can see is different from what you can imagine.'
L.P. Hartley, from The Harness Room

"Life is but a momentary glimpse of the wonder of this astounding universe, and it is sad to see so many dreaming it away on spiritual fantasy.”
-- Carl Sagan
Despite an infinite universe to discover and explore, fantasists from the devout religionists to the nebulous “spiritual” can’t wait to go somewhere else.

Friday 6th October,
We got a new project yesterday the theme is 'Disrupt'.
I did a mind map of what came to mind.
After exploring the possibilities of Disrupt, I'm very interested about the idea of 'Alice in Wonderland' by Lewis Carroll.
I would love to recreate the scenes of 'Alice in Wonderland'.
(Below is my thoughts)
- My initial thoughts is 'Alice in Wonderland' is a story that disrupt reality through imagination.
- Like how I sometimes feel zoning off into my mind/daydreaming whenever I'm alone or bored.
- Alice's story is her way of disrupting the reality of boredom and showing how creative imagination can lead us to.
- A lot of fun things started with imagination and these sometimes breaks how reality can be more than we see physically, for example children invented games from imagination i.e rock, paper, scissors etc.
This morning I did a research on Google. I screenshot two texts on 'Alice in Wonderland'.

In the afternoon I drew out the primary source I photographed at home yesterday.
I own a keychain of a doll that reminds me of Alice.
Hearts I got from buying Boba tea (would be nice for Red Queen's crown).
A blue rabbit (Bought from St. Vincent de Paul second hand shop when I was 12ish).
Two cats that I spotted in my garden on different days and I tooked a photo of them.
I'll see if i could find more primary source over the weekend.

She has been through love, loss, grief and new life.
He found her somewhere, she was struggling with heartaches and waiting for someone. Someone who feels her sorrows and feel everything she has kept locked inside her.
She found him somewhere deep.
He's a lost soul, waiting for her.
Deep inside him, she saw their roots strongly getting tangled. He holds her tightly next to him. He covers her with his heart and love, promising her that everything will be fine.
But she begs pardon, therefore she doesn't know how to love anymore, she has been stupid enough before.
Tho she love him ardently, and to see him, to be with him is very much delightful to her.
But dreaming of him is much different.

For anyone who is familiar with the H. P. Lovecraft revealed in his letters to friends and family, his essays on non-fiction subjects, and his frequent admissions of zero belief in the supernatural, one might get the impression of a man utterly cold towards the whole fantastical essence of his own fiction. In his final assessment of how the universe works and the limitations of 'reality' based on all tangible 'truth' the real world is a very limited thing. Despite the Mechanist/ Materialist part of him Lovecraft made the following statement in a letter dated 1931: "Much as I would like to live in a cosmos full of my favorite Cthulhus, Yog-Sothoth's, Tsathogguas, and the like, I find myself forced into agreement with men like Russell, Santayana, Einstein, Eddington, Haechel, and so on." From SELECTED LETTERS III. by Arkham House Publishers. The aforementioned gentlemen were the 'founding fathers' of Mechanist/ Materialist philosophy and the statement reveals that H. P. Lovecraft was a person of deeply dual nature and a rationalist by force and not by choice. (Exhibit 471)

People say I'm good at listening.
They say that I look like I don't care.
That talking to me feels nice.
Little do they know.
Little do they even know me.
A real me.
What they see and what I present......
Is a mask.
Mask that contains the truth behind answers:
Fine
Fine
Managing
Okish
Good
Mask that keeps the little me inside protected
Mask that holds in so much that every failure cracks it
And when it does
The held up emotions leak
You see me cry
I don't know why
You tell me to not cry
I can't speak
You tell me it's okay to cry
I refuse it
And I hold it in more
Seal the cracks
Scar my heart
Never tell anyone
On rare moments I share
Sometimes I let it out
But the mask stays
It'll always stay on me
And those who see through.........
I'm sorry for what you see
I have to be strong for you
I have to survive day after day
I collect scars that you give me
I seal the cracks
What is left of me?
Why do I win wars in my head but loose to others?
Why stay in reality?
Why I forget everything someone tells me within minutes?
How much longer till I get to bed and embrace the fantasy and warm feeling of people who are like me?
I wonder how much time I have left before reality catches up with me
And sinks me.....
Will I loose everyone?
Will it tear the bond between me and my fantasy?
What will I have left?
Come for me reality
I dare you
I put my mask on
Forget you exist
Dive into what will be left of my imagination
And live through another day.

“Facts are only offensive to those who have taken refuge in fantasy.”
-- Michael Sherlock
If you find describing objective, material reality is blasphemous, triggering, disrespectful, offensive or “hate,” then you’ve committed yourself to not living in it.
