For the last time:

Abyss = for staring into
Void = for screaming into

Please stop screaming into the abyss we are not insured for that

@Lana False. Jean Valjean would like a word with you about voids; _he_ certainly had no trouble staring into them.

thomas bohn

@Lana great, now i'm falling into abyss

:projetstodon: Shalien

@Lana Guess this is why the void kept looking back at me

Snowshadow

@Lana ๐Ÿคฆ ok. I will try to remember.๐Ÿ˜‚

@Lana I'm sorry but what are the sanctioned activities I can perform with this All-Encompassing Nothingness I got? (it was a great deal at Target).

๐ฟ๐’ถ๐“ƒ๐’ถ

@MyLittleMetroid All-Encompassing Nothingnesses are for hurling your hopes and dreams of home ownership into

@Lana I mean, honestly, consult the experts for this sort of thing, folks! @scream

@Lana @aronow I stare into a void everyday, and the void "screams" back

Frank Verhoeven

@Lana
...and volcanoes are for hurtling our billionaires into.

@Lana@beige.party i accidentally voided the abyss am i in trouble

Dragoniff

@Lana also try not to stare into the void, he is on the spectrum and gets easily distressed with intense visual contact...

A January Sponge

@Lana Can you tell me which one is best for sobbing into?

Phil Garland

@Lana I got an abysmal void which accepts both stares and screams

Jordan :ms_nonbinary_flag:โ€‹

@Lana
Me: screaming into the abyss

Abyss, staring: ...could you stop?

Voline

@Lana
Why does my breakdown have to have so many rules?

Zorro Notorious MEB ๐Ÿ˜ก

@Lana So instead of telling the abyss to go pound sand, I should have screamed it into the void? Sorry - my mistake.๐Ÿ˜ˆ

@xinicit @Lana Plus, if it eventually echoes back, that'll mess us all up.

@djb @unixben *slaps the void*

This baby can fit so many screams in it

Ben

@Lana @djb now that's what I call a void!

Stephen Hayes

@djb @Lana @unixben
The abyss is full of monsters -- Leviathan, Kraken, Chthulhu or whatever it's called.

The void is just, well, empty, void.

chthulhu

Ente

@Lana@beige.party screaming into the abyss, hugging the void!

Mensch, Marina

@Lana and tooting? where can I toot into? :mastorofl: ๐ŸŽบ

Daniel

@Lana @energisch_ better double check if it is really empty, otherwise you might get stares :) (or screams, possibly)

Mensch, Marina

@effjay also the sound effects are rather disappointing in a full elevator -- no echo, no hall effects @Lana

Mensch, Marina

@Lana all righty right! ... going to look for an elevator :mastodance:

@Lana For German speakers:
staring into the abyss => In den Abgrund schauen
screaming into the void => no idea, it's translatable but there is no particular equivalent I think. Anybody?

Androcat

@Lana Once they perfect portability, people can have abyss goggles and void masks, so they can do everything at once, wherever they are.

Imagine the efficiency.

Shambolic Matter

@Lana Caveat: void cat is not for screaming into. Screaming into void cat may result in lacerations.

๐ฟ๐’ถ๐“ƒ๐’ถ

@xorn void cat is for scritching and petting only. Please do not scream into void cat.

@Lana This is why I am here and always click โ€˜renewโ€™ every time my subscription comes up.

Daniel Terhorst-North

@Lana @kittylyst Iโ€™m guessing the insurance was void anyway?

DELETED

@Lana Iโ€™m sorry. You have exceeded the instructions available. Type in โ€œscreaming into theโ€ or โ€œstaring into theโ€ and โ€œvoidโ€ is offered as an option for either. โ€œAbyssโ€ is not.

Thรฉotime

@Lana@beige.party Oh no I've been staring into the void this whole time, will I be okay?

StarkRG

@Lana Here's my recommended mnemonic: get a black dog and a black cat, name the dog Abyss and the cat Void.

@Lana

โ€œI would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to create a sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all.โ€

@Lana this feels like something from Portal

@Lana What do we do if we're already in the Abyss or Void?

Violet Rose

@Lana
Damn, I keep getting them mixed up because I always avoid the abyss.

Kate Nyhan

@Lana
How serendipitou to see these posts in this order - clearly the fox needed to check the screaming/staring protocol before getting started

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ haxadecimal

@Lana Thanks to the ISO 9899 standard, we can also cast into the void.

vampirdaddy

@Lana
You *can* scream into an abyss - but you might not like what might come crawling out of it, answering your callโ€ฆ

vampirdaddy

@Lana
The probable couse of events would be:

Scream into the void.

Stare into the abyss (of bleak future).

Scream into the abyss (strongly discouraged).

Stare into the abyss (again) - or at what is moning in there.

Scream into the abyss (again) - or at whatโ€™s coming from there.

Stare into the void (after your mind has left).

JW

@Lana ok, Iโ€™m just staring into the void then. ๐Ÿค“

Norman Wilson

@Lana Is this a subtext about the missing stare no one mentions?

Shufei ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿฝโ€๐ŸŒพ

@Lana The abyss is also watery. So thereโ€™s lots of bubbles.

@Lana but if i scream at the void he just gets sad and meows at me

@Lana I need to howl. Where may I howl? What are the risks of it howling back?

@Lana @jessica also the abbys is for rich people

@Lana Sometimes, on Twitter, I would wish that I could someone else's tweet to my timeline.

This is the first time I've wished for it on Mastodon.

Bryan Redeagle

@Lana@beige.party Hey! That abyss is paid for by my tax dollars and I will scream into if I want!

@Lana stares in to the abyss and becomes lost.

Looks round for any exit signs and just gets even more lost!

Alexander Knochel

@Lana Does Nietzsche's warning also apply to voids?

Sir_Osis_of_Liver

@Lana

"The void is for screaming only, there is no screaming into the abyss."

"The abyss is for screaming only, there is no staring into the void."

"No, the void has always been for screaming only, there is no screaming into the abyss."

"Don't start up with your void shit again. There's no screaming into the abyss."

๐Ÿ™‚

Look, I could apologize for this, but we'd all know that it wouldn't be sincere.

Agnew Hawk :bongoCat:

@Lana Instructions unclear, got into argument with singularity.

แšฑ๊ช–๊ช€๊ช–โœŒ๏ธ

@Lana Usually throw myself into the abyss just to avoid the screaming staring

Rebecca Cotton-Weinhold

@Lana The void just doesn't echo the same the abyss. I like to make the chasms sing.
I am currently working on abyssal overnote screaming. It sounds horrifying. ๐Ÿ’œ

Quincy

@Lana

"what's the difference between the abyss and the void?"

"if you scream into abyss, the warranty will be void."

pystykorva

@Lana this is discrimination against sign language!

Vanfunfun

@Lana if one stares into the void they now qualify for corrective eyewear

dogzilla

@Lana @jwcph Why does Siri keep saying โ€œYouโ€™ll have to unlock your void before you can scream into itโ€

Maximilian

@Lana pro tip: if you stare into the abyss long enough, you become the abyss, allowing you to be the abyss screaming into the void.

Edvin Malinovskis

@Lana can I still stare into the void though? ๐Ÿ‘€

@Lana

Abyss = for staring into
Void = for screaming into
Wind = for pissing into

Please stop pissing into the Abyss, we are not your personal latrine.

@Lana When you scream into the abyss, the abyss screams also into you.
