basically the arkh project was supposed to be a video game developed by people on the internet and run by a popular blogger on tumblr that blogged about race-related issues (riley) to have better representation or whatever. it was supposed to have black characters and gay characters and transgender characters and stuff like that in lead roles. so riley had a fundraiser and tumblr got all over that and spread it everywhere and they got over $4,000.
except people started to suspect it was a scam, especially since riley proposed to make this game 3D. like, a bunch of internet people making an elder scrolls-type 3D game. people realized that they would need a ton of money and resources and people for that. but the donors mostly ignored these types of concerns and stayed on board, and they eventually revealed fancy concept art of the characters.
but then, things started to unravel. a few months later, their first update in forever was literally a clip of a character running that was less than 1 second long. people were like "wtf" but the so-called developers ignored this. months passed by and there kept being nothing until the blog stopped updating at all. and then, people found out riley and these developers actually had a ton of failed projects to their name and that there was little evidence that they had put any effort into developing anything for this at all.
as people put the pieces together, riley kept blogging and mysteriously stopped mentioning the arkh project completely, even when people called them out. and if i remember correctly, this started happening years ago. there's been no official word about it for years.
so that's the story about how a random group of internet people used race issues to scam tumblr users out of $4,000+
I'm so scared. Of just like anything that isn't being in my room not letting myself have even a minute of time to think, because I'm scared of thinking and my own thoughts. I am literally listening to music every waking moment I spend that isn't at the office I work in or at a program I voluntarily go to. Anytime I start crying because I'm terrified and feel so hopeless/empty. And even though I know being sent away could possibly be beneficial to me and the rest of my life, but I'm so scared of actually leaving that I start shaking just thinking about it. I just don't know what to do with myself anymore. o_O Btw I'm sorry if reading this is like discomforting or awkward 0.0 I just needed to vent and I know that most of you in here have been supportive back when I had posted about personal problems in here

I'm not sure. My parents aren't either. But I'm unable to hold an actual job and I cannot continue living under my parents' roof forever doing absolutely nothing w myself. They're looking into places to send me I think I don't ask them about it unless they initiate the conversation
I used a solarium for the first time today
It was not like I expected but still really nice, I wonder how soon will I see results. I was in for 6 minutes but I'll go 4 more times.
