Are you alone for this New Year's celebrations /lit/? If so, were you also alone last year? Aside from reading, how do you cope with such loneliness? What poetry could you recommend that deals with crushing isolation? Write out your problems.
I went about my life and the world and repeatedly post these rants as copy pastas on multiple boards.
I'm alone for this new year like all previous ones.
I plan to post a topic on pol telling them "good goy, stay a loser who has no chance of propagating the white race"
last new years eve (or possibly the one before, i forget) there was a thread about going on omegle and putting /lit/ as your interest
and i ended up passing the new year chatting to a random guy from here who liked djuna barnes
it was a nice moment of connection
Last year I went to an ok gathering
The last year ive been so distant and unreachable that I think everyone has forgotten I exist
A few of us are hanging out in the tinychat/4chanlit. Chatting about books and listening to music.

Joe Bolton's "The Last Nostalgia." Super fucking underrated collection.
The Years
And yet we'd do it all over again -
The success, the excess, and how desire
Got all mixed up with money, sex, the moon,
Till our house lit up like a house on fire.
Maybe it's the intensity we miss,
Those sleek maneuverings at night, when style
Seemed an end in itself, and which it was,
As things turned out. Tonight, in the dead still
Of the night, I lift a glass of amber
To all that's left, which is less than nothing,
Which is to say all I can remember
Of that feeling, that memory of a feeling.
Strange to want back what we wanted back then.
We were as good as dead, or better than.
I'm on a weekend trip with friends. Just checking in to see how my /lit/bros are doing.
