#even when angry they are polite

[cemeterything]

while i'm thinking about terror character characterisation i think it's so vitally important to let crozier keep his rage after he recovers from alcoholism. he may temper it better now that he has full control of his faculties and direct it more rationally both out of a sense of responsibility of care for his men and guilt for the harm he caused while in the grip of the drink, but make no mistake that it's still there. good people don't have to stop being angry to be good, and recognising your capacity for violence doesn't stop you from being capable of it.

#🐉 #its literally one of his defining traits that hes too honest and passionate for politics #this isnt really a criticism either because most people understand this in fanworks #im just very passionate about the importance of letting people stay angry even when they get better (← melanie king enjoyer) #the terror

The bourgeois or "exploiting class" doesn't inherently include the person who gets their nails done biweekly, or the disabled person who has a carer, or the guy who got a $70 video game for full-price, or the person who relies on medication (yes even the ones you don't think they "need"), or anything else like this. None of these people will, on average, have the ability to exploit workers by means of ownership or whatever.

While you are busy fighting with fellow workers, you are still being exploited by your boss, by capitalism, by (potentially) not having healthcare, by being overworked and underpaid, and so are they.

#politics #feel like this wording isn't satisfactory for me but fuck it we ball #used bourgeois because i think as a colloquial word it's recognized but like... #...i dunno i think some people use it to mean 'person who can do [x]' even if they quite literally own no means of production #like the idea that you're exploiting a worker by agreeing to a service they provide isn't what bourgeois means #if i paid a carer to care for a disabled person they aren't being exploited by that disabled person... #...HOWEVER that carer absolutely can (and probably will be) exploited by the systems of power (eg their boss or capitalism) #perhaps it's too late at night for me to be posting about this but it's something that bothers me! #*especially* when it comes to disability and other groups already exploited by marginalization 👍 #if your leftism percludes the disabled (including the terminally and profoundly) or the elderly or the queer or so so much i don't WANT ITTT #saw a disabled person i follow lament how afraid they were to have a carer out of fear of Being a Bad Exploitative Person #and they obviously need one and that makes me so fucking angry to know that they are needlessly suffering

Every single person who is trying to shame people into voting for Genocide Joe's re-election because "Trump is worse and Biden is less worse" is disgusting.

As a person who voted Democrat since I could vote, as a person who fought with family or acquaintances to make them see how bad Trump is, the level of shame and guilt that I've been carrying for weeks over the Genocide in Palestine, over every single death that I see on my screen, over every story I read about those brave suffering people, has eaten me alive. To know that my vote put a monster in power.

"We can't live through Trump again". Too bad. Maybe instead of spending all your energy shaming the people, especially the Palestinian-Americans, into voting for the man who is directly responsible, directly to blame, for ongoing aid to fund and support the deaths of thousands of men, women, and children, maybe you should do the work to put a better candidate in office, maybe you should say "hey both these people are horrible, we should pick someone better" and then work towards that instead of saying "anyone who doesn't vote for Biden over the Palestinian Genocide is worse than the people who vote for Trump". I know you all don't care about the lives of people half a world away but I do.

I will never again in my life vote for a single person who supports the atrocities that I've witnessed.

I will not compromise my morals for your comfort.

Fuck you.

For anyone else who cares about making a difference follow and support Project Olive Grove, they are actively working to ensure that this won't ever happen again by having politicians who advocate for the people and not for genocide.

#genocide joe #palestine #tw: genocide #tw: american politics #seriously cannot believe that this even needs to be said but im angry #i cannot believe the sheer balls you people have to make posts worrying about how his support is falling when hes out there saying #no ceasefire and spreading lies about palestinians #and trying to send more money and weapons to kill more #he is evil #he is vile #when he dies i will celebrate #anyways #support #project olive grove

I WON'T ANNOUNCE MY SHEER DESCENT BUT HOLY FUCK THERE WILL BE SIGNS

#amys' tag #keys' art #undescribed #this one is 50% vent art 50% fucking around with colors shapes and designs and 100% a banger. #so anyways when i grew up i learned that anger is bad and that didn't have any consequences whatsoever #because as a result to this day i never yell at people. or snap. or do any of that. i'm always very calm and understanding and polite #which is GREAT right up until i experience actual rage and i cant do shit to express it. because i never learned how. lol #seriously though id like to thank this song for providing catharsis when im angry as FUCK but cant do shit about it #i cant even sing it out loud because it has swear words in it and my family would disapprove but one day i'll get there lol #until then though. yeah.

Me having a normal one: OUHGUOHGOUOUOGHOGUOUGH the way Hector speaks so softly to Julia when she asks him to free Isaac of his curse... he apologizes for getting angry at her (hint hint) and empathizes with her...... he bows like a gentleman...........

why is the residential gigachad so fucking cute

#castlevania #hector castlevania #average fan: hector is just an angry badass who slashes bitches and has no depth beyond that #me an intellectual: have you seen how hard he falls for people. how devoted he gets when he cares. #he's just a good person to his core and so polite even more so than the prince alucard himself #love that in japanese he remembers his promise when isaac flees from trevor #he still wants to kill isaac but he's doing it for julia now #goddamnit why did they have to make her rosaly's clone they could have had a wholesome romantic relationship #and finally crispin freeman >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Sometimes I see the worst most wrong and MEAN and CALLOUS opinions on this site and it's like holy shit why the fuck did I learn to read + I get super fuckin upset, both angry and deeply disheartened/hurt.

However. I have decided that this is going to become a wider problem :) if I have to see everyone else's bad opinions, they also have to see mine >:)

#it doesnt really work #given that these are like. shitty political racist homophobic etc opinions #and my bad opinions are like. abt how i think vampires are hot. or talking about how body horror is a divine gift. #but yknow. i am trying not to be an angry person. despite yknow. being a fundamentally angry person #i am much better than i was. but its not something i grew out of or whatever when the brain settled at 25 #i really am just an angry person quick to jealous and rage. but trying so so so hard to be good and kind #trying even the harder because i know i am. so mad. all the time. #if i think something is important i cannot let it go. im incapable #i am so chill abt stuff that doesn't matter #but as soon as i percieve it to matter. ie. have an effect on others or be related to goodness or being a good person or whatever #i simply. cannot just move on. ocd obsessions + big hearted ness #the duality of fran

bitty is so strong. and bitty is so, so angry.

these panels all occur four whole years before all the rage and frustration and trauma that bitty has been holding in erupt in that one symbolic check at the end of the comic. these panels are all bitty reacting to jack criticizing him, often loudly and publicly. these panels are all, as much as it’s painful to think of it this way, bitty reacting to someone who at the time was the manifestation of his fears and source of self-doubt. 

year 1 bitty often behaves timidly, and rarely chooses confrontation, so it’s easy to think that he was cowed by jack’s behavior. easy to think that he’s fragile. but the truth is actually hidden in the panels where no one but the audience is looking; that’s when bitty's true feelings shine through. 

bitty may have a lot of fears, but he also has a lot of fury. and bitty may let his fears urge him to get up and quit, but he never actually does. bitty doesn’t break when faced with his fears: bitty purses his lips and takes a deep breath and pretends he’s fine. 

and then he keeps going.

#omgcp #omgcheckplease #eric bittle #this is an eric richard bittle stan account #I think the true genius of omgcp lies in the fact that bitty is one of the most complex characters I've come across #he is nice and polite and reserved to the point of it being a personality flaw; he's strong and angry but presents himself as the opposite #he's a southern gay stereotype and a hockey player stereotype all rolled up in one - but upon closer inspection he's not a stereotype at all #bitty's character arc may be the most subtle but it's not only that bitty ends up winning #it's that bitty learns to love himself for ALL he is and learns to stand up for himself even when it's hard #and that includes defending his right to be fucking angry #while simultaneously being optimistic and kind and sweet #I lost track of my point I JUST LOVE ERIC BITTLE SO DAMN MUCH #text #meta

i love when dogs see something they hate so much they just puff up and make the biggest bark ever while throwing their entire body at it teeth-first.

I know it’s objectively dangerous and I would be horribly harmed if one came into contact with me while doing that, but it really just makes me laugh every time.

#I also love when a dog hears another dog outside and takes the BIGGEST breath to angry bark #sometimes they snort haha #I worked with my rescues to the point they’re now safe around other dogs (they came from bad situations) but #even though they’ll be so polite if they walk up to a dog #they pretend they’re going to kill and maim until they’re in sniff range #for obvious reasons I can’t take them in public generally yet #but we’re getting there

[sporkberries]

you would have to actually pay me money to get me to live with my sister long term this has only been a week and im so fucking angry i literally cannot even talk to her

#i hate being treated like a maid and maybe id be more okay with it if she was like #polite or thanked me #but no she doesnt do any of that in fact she does the opposite #acts peeved at you for not cleaning up HER mess #im not even mad im irate #i didnt wanna clean so i held off sleeping to procrastinate and now im doing it and its literally all fucking hers and im so angry #and its not easy shit to clean either it like #leaving out her oatmeal bowls for multiple days #im so mad i cant even express #im sleeping the entire car ride when we leave i do not wanna even look at her

February request goals update

I made a spreadsheet because I'm like that of all the requests I have from Halloween/early November I know it's been a long time. I'm sorry. So, I'm going try to get 7 more done this month (the ones in yellow, with the darker ones being the requests I'm working on this week). Yes, I picked ones with Simeon in them on purpose.

I put an upload schedule in the bio (Tuesdays 9pm, Saturdays 10pm PST). Let's see if I can actually stick to it. I'll try.

#moss update #ignore my shorthand for some of these #some of them are probably going to be really long so I'll try my best #but uh #I might have started this month off with a case of bigsad #(sorry. I get a little political and vent here:) #but y'know ya kinda feel sad and angry when your country is one of the biggest funders of genocide #despite all the evidence and constant pleas and protests for it to stop. #you get really mad that they continue to show no concern for human lives even when confronted by unimaginable cruelty #like you knew they didn't care generally speaking but I guess I hoped they'd do better for once?

[ID: a doodle of hunter, willow, darius and gus from the owl house, set after Thanks to Them. Hunter is the focus in the foreground with willow and darius behind him. Gus is a small doodle in the background. Hunter looks off to the right with nervous brows and a small smile. Labeled with text next to him that reads: “doing alright, all things considered- knows who he is and what he wants, has clear goals (merk belos) & people who love him. Grieving but carrying flapjacks love with him. He will be okay and he knows this”. Behind him willow and darius are depicted shaking and covered in shadow with text labeling them “shivering with incandescent rage and fear”. The small doodle of gus is labeled “knows what you are”. End ID]

Ideal scenario for post-thanks to them character dynamics

#the owl house #toh #hunter toh #hunter noceda #the other characters are small and this doodle is already silly so I’ll hold off tagging them for now #listen this might be idealistic thinking #but like. I do think even though hunter will be a bit fucked up next ep hes not gonna be at his lowest (like after hollow mind) #he’s got people! A semi-formed identity independent from belos OR caleb! He’s got goals and wants that are wholly his own! #but at least it’s not like hollow mind where his whole world genuinely came crashing down and he ran into the woods #the people who care about hunter on the other hand??? Particularly the ones who DONT have secondary drama at this point (camilla luz amity) #(etc) #yeah they’re probably very worried for him and angry on his behald #*behalf #although maybe behalf isn’t right since hunter has FINALLY recognised the abuse he’s faced and is mad about it #but like. Either way they’re probably not okay rn #and idk how that might potentially manifest if it gets any focus at all (theres a lot going on rn) #but either way i will be rotating this potential dynamic in my mind until January #and then there’s gus waiting to reveal to hunter that he knows hes a grimwalker. Sitting there politely #please let the conversation between them about it be a little funny. Especially when uconsider the theory that gus used cosmic frontier- #—to subtly signal to hunter that He Knows #like. That’s objectively funny in and amongst all the drama #anyway yeah #i did this on the notes app lol. That’s why it looks like that #notes app doodles are low quality but freeing <3 i love them dearly for this

I think many people cognitively understand that retributive justice is often ineffective and simply violent, but they don't want to rid themselves of the almost collective anger mindset that permits this kind of justice to remain in place, even socially. In short, the mindset still treats people as though they must be punished as severely as possible, and when one is wronged, the mindset goes to how violence can be used, which is not inherently the same as righting wrongs.

Justice is complex, and it's messy. That's why it's so important not to treat it simplisticly with only one solution.

#politics #retributive justice #and like... when it's you and your anger and your hurt it becomes really hard and i GET that... #...i just don't know if that impulse will always help either party... #...like i said justice is complex amd anger and hurt can make that really hard to remember #it is really hard to grapple with these feelings especially knowing like... there's going to be no consequences for my abuser... #...no retributive justice no anything else. not even acknowledgement as everybody pretends they didn't witness my abuse and the drama... #...but even as this happens - would i feel any better with retributive justice? what about everybody else? #that's what i mean when i say it's complex... #...that most injustices will go unpunished and that's part of the reason (i think) why people immediately swing to violence... #...because it feels like... we are so angry about this being brought to light and the ONLY way to ammend this is with violence #and i know that somebody might project onto this post that i'm saying that every Bad Person should be handled with kid gloves... #...and that's not really what i'm getting at. what i'm getting at is that we should be more critical of solving EVERY issue as violently... #...as possible - INCLUDING in social settings #violence is often inevitable especially at a large scale but that doesn't mean it is always the most effective nor the most realistic

Hello! I apologize if this is a nosy question, but what is the silly feelings wheel app you were talking about in a previous post? My therapist and I have been working on identifying feelings but I still very much rely on a list of feeling words to have any idea what I’m feeling, so it could be a helpful resource. No worries if you don’t want to share, just thought I would ask :)

It's called How We Feel! I'm not sure if it's available on all devices yet, but it's on ios and the google play store for sure.

I've been using it for about a year. It's more of a chart than a wheel but people usually recognize the wheel better so that's what I call it. When you first start it has a 10-part tutorial about emotional acceptance and regulation, then it has suggestions for each category of emotion. You can access both at any time tho after those first 10 days.

It has a share option so you can have friends, which has been great for me cause it prompts me to check on friends and them to do the same for me. It allows you to just respond with a little emoji in like a "I'm here for you" little notification to your friend, or you can reach out to your friend on your own. Its really helped me cause I'm bad at reaching out when I need support so to me and I'm bad about taking on other's problems even when I can't handle it so being able to send a little emoji instead to make sure my friends know I'm there if they need me and them doing the same has been great

#I know I sound like I'm a being sponsored by this app but it's genuinely been incredible for my mental health #whenever I get frustrated in therapy now about not being able to describe a feeling my therapist asks me to think about the chart #he'll ask me what color I feel and go 'good! do you want to narrow it down from there or continue with just that?' and it's so helpful #I have such terrible alexithymia from both cptsd and autism #it took a year of working with him to even recognize when I felt angry or hungry or sick #my friends and I check in on each other regularly now but it feels less intrusive #cause it feels like indirectly reaching out so it's less pressure to directly respond #and it might not feel the same for everyone since it could be jarring to get a notification saying friend feels miserable #but now that I've gotten used to it I don't feel like I need to solve their problems and make them feel better #Like they might be miserable because they're sick! So I check in and they say they're sick but okay and I don't feel the impulse to solve #like I would if I just didn't see them then saw them in person and saw they looked miserable #I don't blame myself or feel like I personally need to fix everything because I know they felt like that from an outside source I can't #control but I can certainly help them if they want! It's their choice tho and I don't feel bad if they don't/I can't #I feel less need to control my emotions/force them to be positive like I used to cause nobody feels positive 24/7 and I can see it #I don't feel the need to be politely content like I did in church because no one can be 24/7. I've attempted to get my family to start but #they're still stuck in needing to not be openly negative. It also helps me accept that negative feelings don't last forever #Someone feeling miserable because they're sick eventually puts they feel tired. Then chill and I know they feel better and I feel better too #Anyways thanks for listening to me ramble about my silly little feelings wheel app I hope it helps you like it helped me anon <3

words pale to express how much I hate macron at this point

#thoughts #my grandmother was sent home with an unexamined broken bone #because she is old so not a priority and the public services are fucking drowning #then obviously she fell again and broke two more and got open wounds #then she was taken in and stored in a *corridor* for days #and the operation on her shoulder is being stalled because they have zero openings #AND THIS BITCH is out there speaking of cutting 10 billion more funding for hospitals #you are selling us to private US interests like there is no tomorrow #forbidding us from protesting for our rights and maiming and killing your own citizen when we try #gassing up the far right to try and win by comparaison EVEN THOUGH you do the EXACT same thing as them AND criminalizing the left #pussying out of saying you 100% support Israel when this is actually what's happening because you're a coward #AND prepping us for a war with russia that I'm fairly sure has nothing to do with genuine solidarity with ukraine #but far more with the european political chessboard and your own mark upon history because that's the kind of person you are #and doing your little ego parade for the olympics as though this should in any way shape of form be the priority right now??? #as if it's not unbelievably dangerous given the current state of the world?? #I want to eat a wall every time I see him on my screen #I am. very angry about many things at the moment. :)

how hard is it, like honestly how fucking hard is it to tell someone "hey, im just making myself dinner and then i wanna watch tv is it alright if you wrap up your show now?" instead of just fucking waltzing in and saying "i need the tv now." like im not, yet a-fucking-gain halfway through an episode? because i get it, i get wanting to come inside after a day at work and wanting to watch tv - but it has been 20 years of the same fucking bullshit of not giving a fuck about anyone else, because apparently i dont fucking matter in this house and i never fucking have

#i dont even care if it sounds stupid to be this fucking angry about something that seems small but do you know what its like #but i reached a point as a kid where i just didnt fucking bother turning the tv on at all unless i was guaranteed to be home alone #i could watch movies for YEARS bc i didnt see the fucking point when someone was just going to walk in and take the disk out #/while it was playing/ #and theyre never fucking polite about it either they genuinely dont give a fuck about how i feel about shit #and 'they' feels a little broad considering im soecifically angry about Him at the moment but my mums not fucking innocent either #im just so sick and tired of having to hide in my fucking room all the time

Hi btw being trans does not automatically grant you supernatural understanding of all esoteric trans knowledge. You actually need to put effort into learning or put effort into keeping quiet about things that don't pertain to your specific experience

#my cishet brother has a better grasp of transgender theory than my transgender bisexual sister because he like... did some basic research #meanwhile my sister confidently told me 'oh youre nit trans youre neutral' the ither week and i almost slapped her #miss maam i am nonbinary and i have been out as some kind of trans for ten years i will politely ask you to shut up ONCE #also in no universe am i 'neutral' but even if i WAS by definition i would not be identifying wholly with my assigned sex #WHICH WOULD MAKE ME TRANSGENDER ANYWAY #apparently shes been portraying herself as the only trans in the family despite the fact that ive BEEN OUT FOR A DECADE #like ms maam when i came out you were TEN YEARS OLD. i taught you what transgender meant! i know for certain i taught you better #i DEFINITELY taught you better than to TELL PEOPLE WHAT THEY ARE #like okay i guess if youre not into research and history and you just wanna exist without having yo be an expert that is fine #but DO NOT present yourself as an expert. you are an expert in YOUR BODY and YOUR EXPERIENCES #like. shes got severe 'no one has ever done it like me. i am the weirdest girl at the party' syndrome #while also having the personality of an edgy piece of toast #i love her but i have. been very angry at her and i cant even say anything about it #like. baby girl you are a very generic case of autism and transgender and bisexuality. youre not the most random unique case #'how could you understand?!' meanwhile im sitting there wildly neuridivergent and transgender and i got eldest daughter/third parent trauma #like hmm yeah i wonder what id know about it. i wonder how i could possibly understand. i wonder how i could possibly offer relevant advice #i give up #shes a fucking edge lord and our mum feeds into it rather than being like 'some of your experiences are actually universal' #anyway rant over #my brother is an angel and i eould die for him. worlds best ally #he has never once misgendered me or made me feel weird about it. unlike some other siblings who demands i punch her if she gets it wrong #like... no? stop being weird about it youre making me more uncomfortable than using the wrong pronoun did #mums like that too 'oh i messed up hit me!' like no #how old are you? #grow up im not gonna hit you back why would hurting you make me feel better? does hurting people make you feel better? #cause that sounds like something you should see a licensed professional about. i dont care if its a therapist or a bartender #just do it away from me #rant #personal #delete later
