This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I think I just don't have the liminal space gene. I've watched Severance and have seen a ton of other spaces people call liminal but I've never felt anything creepy or unsettling about them at all.
It’s a space that has no purpose except transit. Therefore there is no thought of comfort in its design. When you see these spaces your brain has a reaction of “getting through it as soon as possible”. There is probably also something in our ancient survival instinct that lingering in open space like that could be fatal.
I know what they are. They still don't work on me.
Have you frequently moved house, moved to new homes, apartments, lived in a car, anything like that? Hiked a long ways, for a long while?
I was homeless for some years... and yeah... almost everywhere you are is a liminal space, and eventually... it all becomes just another space, it loses that kind of strangeness, as you spend more and more time in places you're not really meant to be in, and the places you think you can stay in, well, they turn out to be hostile and temporary too.
