did Marilyn Manson do a cover of this song -
m'lady isn't even a pronoun is it
I used that word wrong
smh I need to go to bed -
marilyn manson's cover was less than impressive
I'm sad about that -
okay well
I'll just have to try and find a better cover next time I'm looking for music -
oh s--- my pets are almost ready to check out of this hotel
it's a good thing I remembered now because it definitely wouldn't have occurred to me again any time soon -
I always take my pills like I'm gonna go to sleep and then I stay up for hours like the pills are gonna be just as good then

a piece of my thumb is missing and I'm past my ideal bed time so I might as well just wreck my own s---
sorry future road -
fenton soup

oh actually
that's something I was thinking about
and I'd better say it now if I don't want to forget -
I leave little notes to future versions of me in this thread all the time, because I know I'll go back through it again eventually. Last time I did that, I remember trying to find some information I posted about some characters of mine that I wanted to copy onto a Word document so I wouldn't lose it. As I was going through the pages, skimming through sad poems about how much I f---ing hate being alive and little stories about my misadventures, I came across one of these notes: "I hope you like scrolling, future Road." This note was immediately followed by several pages of Undertale comics. I couldn't skip through them, because there's no pattern to the way I post in here- I just say things as they come to me. Halfway through this flood of comics could be my character information, so I scrolled through them with somber acceptance of my fate. I remember thinking, "oh, f--- you, past road"
And it's not really that important, but in that moment, I was regarding that past version of myself as a completely different person. And I realized that that's what I do all the time now. Everything I write right now will eventually be looked back on by some future version of myself (By the way, hey there, buddy. I'm gonna come up with a nickname for you as soon as possible to make these communications cleaner.) and regarded as the works of a younger, less informed version of themself. -
I was thinking, if I could find some way to make this work to my advantage, I'll bet I could make things a lot easier for myself. If I figured out how to separate myself from future versions of myself and think of all of them as individual people, I could harness this ridiculous empathy to do something to help me for a change. I was thinking I might be able to make myself do things now that I otherwise wouldn't in hopes of helping the future versions of myself.

Possible problems here are that
1. this generally means taking on all suffering early on so it won't have to be dealt with later, which I already do and it doesn't appear to be helping the future versions of myself at all and
2. I don't even want to put in the effort to continue breathing let alone take on all the extra work I'll need to save future Road
