Would you believe it, Sylvia Plath and me
In this zine that is not really about Sylvia Plath, but rather about my relationship with an image of Sylvia Plath that I made in my head years ago, I discuss suicide, life and optimistic nihilism. Trigger warnings obviously apply.
You can listen to ONSIND's Suicide Is Painful here, and here is Dissatisfactions.
This zine was made with the Electric Zine Maker by alienmelon You can read it thanks to Jeremy Oduber's reader.

Thank you for sharing that.
I like your writing style! And I find this zine really pretty :)
I'm probably more of neurotypical kind of guy. I was touched to read your thoughts on this "liberating nihilism". It also feels quite unfair to me that some people have to battle more than others with dark thoughts :(
I can connect with one thing: when I was a kid, I remember that for some time, at night in my bed, I was worrying about "what if" scenarios. I don't recall exactly those, but I think they were like "what if this kid does not like me anymore", or "what if someone in my family dies". And I recall distinclty that I felt really relieved when, at some point, I decided to really face those scenarios and imagine in my mind what would happen then. And I remember realizing that whatever would happen, even he saddest thing, life would still go on. I guess it's some kind of "optimistic nihilism" :)
Anyway, I wish you all the best with your writing!
Also, you made me discover ONSIND, thanks for that.
Thanks for that, it's sweet, Tellington ❤️
