As I typed this thread I realize this sounds slightly masochistic bc who the FUCK wants to live in extremely painful emotion all the time rightBUT
Itβs also a way to process our own hurts. To have them, even briefly, outside of ourselves. To have them be tangible.

ITβS AN AMAZING AND OFTEN UNDERUTILIZED GENRE AND I JUST WANT ALL OF IT
