Speak
gentle, honest
drawing, talking, trying
This is what you can do, this is what you can’t
stealing, screaming, threatening
dangerous, loud
Victim
When I started ranting, it was originally on PrincessElizabeth013 a young female sonic artist who stole art, threatened people and did quite a few terrible things. She was very short tempered.

For some reason, I felt a way to build myself back up was to do a rant, but not just that, I saw her acting the way that the woman in  Headlines! Was acting and I had to say something. Little did I know that would change so many lives forever.

I know the ranting community has been around for years, it’s been here and not had the best reputation, but as a young kid with a need to complain, I felt it was a perfect way to make content, and soon enough many more started joining in.

Except, I regret doing it.
Some people are worth a public callout, if they bring danger to those around them but I couldn’t help but feel I ruined PrincessElizabeth013’s life when I made those videos and many others after that. I had managed to accidentally create the same toxicity I wanted to fight against. I was just too naive to see and it seemed I just wanted to bully people for the sake of bullying them. I was obsessed with making her life a hell, it was just disgusting, the worst part? I would receive an applaud for what I did. I was praised.  I shouldn’t of been praised and now I try my best in hopefully giving her a better life by being her genuine friend.

It doesn’t change the past, but I feel better knowing I can help her when I can.

When young, kids make mistakes, PrincessElizabeth013 grew up with many people attempting to harass her, bait her, treat her badly and soon enough it fossilised into her being too anxious to show any kind of emotions. Don’t get me wrong, she has her flaws.  I just felt bad for putting them on display.

Overall, it was just my introduction to the ranting community and becoming a YouTuber. I tried to show this in a Diamante form, which was quite hard considering I was not talking about objects and more or less talking about speech.
