the thing about the "um excuse me if you're as poor as you say you are why don't you just sell all your most treasured possessions" thing that people love to trot out as some kind of "gotcha" is that they do not acknowledge how fucking soul-crushing it is to be in a situation that is already destroying your mental health and then be forced to sell one of the few things in your life that still bring you joy

Do you ever think about how it’s canon that Blade is constantly in pain? How he constantly feels the aches of wounds engraved into his time and time again because they couldn’t properly be healed by the abundance dwelling within him? How something’s healed wrong and now he feels how wrongly they healed every second of his life? How he can feel his body being continuously reconstructed, a never ending cycle of his body being torn apart and rebuilt? How his hands can no longer forge because they have been destroyed? How multiple parts of his body, from his hand to his leg to his chest all the way down his torso (if you check his model) are encased in bandages?
And how Bailu’s line about him smelling like fresh blood has the potential for many interpretations, including the potential that some of the wounds Ren has that his body refuses to heal could literally still be open and bleeding?
Because I do, I think about it all the time. The state of constant pain that's he's in due to the very thing keeping him alive and not letting him finally die and rest and all of that coming together to be why he's so severely tired and just wants to rest? Yeah that lives in my brain

It’s okay to not want to have sex ever. It’s okay to never even try it.

I’m tired of people acting like Zhongli is a serious and chill guy who would never cause problems on purpose as if he isn’t one of the biggest menaces out of the Seven. He used to throw mountains at Venti for annoying him. He, the god of history, starts fights among historians for shits and giggles. He tried to gaslight the Traveler into thinking he was totally not at the Chasm guys really Aether/Lumine you must be seeing things maybe you should go see Baizhu. When Qiqi wanted “Cocogoat” milk he was like “Oh yeah sure totally let’s go look for it” knowing damn well it was a wild goose chase. He made the Traveler sing to a flower and then was like “Oh would you look at that” when a Whooperflower jumped out to maul them. I love him. He’s like a cat pushing things off the counter to see how people react. I would pay to see him interact directly with Neuvillette because I know for a fact he’d get on that man’s nerves and argue about water tasting just to feel something. Furina used freedom from godhood to take a nap and Zhongli used it to give psychic damage to anyone who talks to him longer than 5 minutes. Iconic.

Don't kill me for this but methinks maybe some people on tumblr do not know what a toxic relationship is both in fiction and irl. like I'm seeing people calling their ships "toxic yuri" or whatever because their relationship is tumultuous and has ups and downs or because the people involved got into a fight and hurt each other's feelings a couple times like....my liege that is just a normal relationship. In literally any kind of interpersonal relationship it is inevitable that you are going to hurt people sometimes and you're going to be hurt. You're going to disagree with people. You're going to do things wrong. That doesn't mean you're toxic or that your relationships are unsalvageable. That's just how people work. Like I'm starting to genuinely worry that people r gonna carry this attitude into their real lives and fuck themselves over because they think that their real relationships with other people aren't supposed to have any conflict or discomfort whatsoever and I feel like it ties into this weird hyper-individualism thing that tumblr has going on where people are not supposed to rely on each other or try to grow and have compassion for other people or it's "emotional labour"....babes relationships are supposed to take work. We work on ourselves for other people because we care about them. Take my hand it's okay you can do it

it feels like no matter how well someone explains that women should not be expected to shave or wear makeup to be treated normally, and that there exists a pressure for them to shave/wear makeup even in "harmless" "self care" sentiments, there's like this big group of people committed to not understanding the discussion at all

all the new fuckers: don’t censor words in ur post with numbers, @ and punctuation signs, different letters, shit like that. not just cuz it’s absolutely fine to say weird shit and things that other places generally censor on tumblr, but also cuz there are people with screen readers, and when u unnecessarily censor things like that, it really fucks with screen readers and makes it very difficult to read.
this isn’t just a “you don’t have to” thing, it’s a “you shouldn’t”.

as much as i love making fun of edgeworth for being such a big steel samurai fan, it has to be one of my favourite things about him as a character
first, because i think it's hilarious that the character that gets introduced as Demon Prosecutor is also a big nerd into anime... it's a silly little detail that adds nothing to the story but makes him more likeable and human
second, because when you know his past it fits so well... because of course the traumatised boy who got whisked away to the other side of the world to be raised by his father's murderer would want to seek refuge in a comforting childhood memory, and maybe he was ridiculed for enjoying something as silly as cartoons... it's not proper, it's not useful to his studies
and of course the hardened prosecutor who sees death and cruelty every day would enjoy watching it, not just to distract himself with a children's tv show where good always triumphs and the bad guys are easily defeated, but also because he was denied that pleasure for years, he's making up for lost time and enjoying just liking something silly and simple without feeling guilty about it

No matter how progressive or well-read you are, there are always going to be moments in your life where somebody pushes back against something that's so culturally ingrained you never even considered it before. And you'll say "Huh, it never occurred to me to challenge this but you're right" and that doesn't mean you were "morally toxic" before, it means you're a non-omniscient human capable of growth.

Hard truth that I’ve had to confront that I’m honestly not proud of:
Constantly voicing your abandonment issues lead to more people abandoning you.
I do not mean in Serious Conversations about what you need in a relationship or anything like that - I mean when your friend plays a video game with a different friend for a few days and you feel like your world is crumbling, that is not the time to talk about them.
I understand the fear that someone will decide they are done with you. I live that fear every single day, but here’s the rub.
If you tell people “you’ll probably leave me anyway” or similar things every time you feel that fear, people will leave you.
Not because they don’t want to be your friend, your partner, your roommate, whatever. Not because you aren’t deserving of friends (you are), but because it is exhausting to be constantly told by someone you like/love to go away.
Because that is how it feels on the other end. I don’t say this to make it worse, or to make you feel like you’re at fault. Your brain is hurting you, and it’s okay to feel things. But if you find that it’s hard to keep people around you, then you need to hear that outside of things like conversations about boundaries and triggers and such, it would be to your benefit to change your language.
Instead of telling people “you probably don’t like me”, try asking. “You like me? It’s much easier for them to reassure you when you don’t start with a negative, because it puts your brain in a different mindset, one that finds it easier to believe their response.
Sit with your issues. Parent them. And when they’re done screaming, hold their little hands and dry their little faces and try to remember that you are worth being loved. I won’t say it’s easy, because it’s really fucking not. I won’t say you’ll get it the first time, or that you’ll never fuck up. I still do. But you deserve friends and partners and love, it’s just that so do they.
