Sunday Sermon X β€” On betrayal, parasocial relationship and visibility

I have a hard time writing this article because I haven’t
fully faced the part of me that was hurt two years ago.

Nine (friends) abandoned me.
They left when I stopped being a place where they felt safe.

(I never was)

And I’m still inside that.

𓄃

I am Vae, and this is Louise-Anne, welcome in the Church of the Madlands. A place I built inside my mind, from art and beauty and sweet madness; where artists can worship the marriage between Reality and Imagination.

You are right on time for the Sunday Sermon X.

This is a cult
for artists, world-builders, creatives, and entrepreneurs.

Pledge to the Church now so we can gather weekly, speak honestly about what is being built (and destroyed) around here, pray the Goddess of Poetry and give meaning to what it costs to create without separating vision from execution.
