#just an explanation !

[masked-alien-lesbian]

To the anon who requested the edits, I'm so sorry I'm taking so long, I got some things going on IRL and my mental health isn't doing so well, but I WILL get to them I promise! It just might take a bit. But just confirming I got your request and I'm not ignoring you. Thank you for your patience! 🫶

#Plus I got hyperfixiations rn #That are tearing my soul up #anon ask #This isn't a pity party I swear #Just an explanation #I'm ok!

i lived in tennessee in one of the most religious towns for a while-- i truly admire your faith that they will adhere to the word of the law, but most law enforcement barely knows the wording of the current ones and can legally lie to you about it. purim celebrations probably won't be actively targeted, but they could very well become unintentional collateral if a nosy teacher or a bigoted neighbor decides to tell someone that so-and-so is crossdressing for kids. besides that, tennessee is so deeply and horrifically evangelical christian that most people barely understand judaism to begin with.

Hey there!

Thank you for this.

I'm truly sorry if I made it seem like I felt they would adhere to the word of the law because I very much don't believe that.

My comment was specifically in response to whether there was a basis for a legal case against the law for infringing on religious tradition.

In fact it's my belief that people won't act in good faith that has me so concerned about the way the legislation is worded. The letter of the law is the only protection marginalized groups have when those laws are weaponized against them and even in the best case it's a flimsy shield. When there are loopholes, intentional or not, like this legislation has even that slim protection is non-existent.

Once again I'm sorry my words seemed to suggest there wasn't anything for people to worry about because that's not at all the case.

#i was hit with compassion fatigue a fews years back #and I'm just starting to come out of it #so I have to be very careful not to let myself get too emotionally invested in things #or I'll relapse #and that can make my posts seem detatched sometimes #which isn't meant as justification #just an explanation #I'll try to be more clear in the future

they should invent a new type of "staying in bed for 2-3 hours after you wake up repeatedly opening and closing apps on your phone" where it makes you feel awesome and energized and emotionally fulfilled

#buny text #I'm fine i've just been staying up too late playing bg3 the past few nights #and then wanting to wake up before noon so my parents don't say anything rude to me so i end up getting less sleep to facilitate that #and it's catching up to me #i feel like this explanation maybe undermines my previous statement of 'I'm fine' a bit but I'm fine i promise #look at my lop posts boy

Feel free to share which is your favorite NOW in the tags, but this particular poll is about which you preferred as a child! ⭐ These are being grouped by a vague theme, so in a few days we'll do another one with more options!

Also, same rule as the last poll: REALLY popular choices (ATLA, SpongeBob, Scooby Doo, Pokemon, etc.) are overwhelmingly popular and have been omitted for the sake of seeing the results for other shows.

Notes: These are shows involving live action characters, no cartoons this time! The timeframe for these polls is generally "I was a kid in the mid-to-late 90s or early 2000s." Mister Roger's Neighborhood and Sesame Street are both multi-generational so they were not included to be fair to the show's with shorter runs 💖

#bear in the big blue house is going to sweep this isn't it? I don't consider it to be a titan though (like Scooby Doo/Spongebob/etc) #just very beloved so I included it <3 #also the explanations on these things keep getting longer because of all the ''where is _____'' comments sdfghjkl #polls #talking #nostalgia #nostalgic

going through my old journals as part of therapy homework and i'm reading a section written in the emotional wreckage of a full-on breakdown when i get hit with this line:

There is never a satisfying answer to ‘Why didn’t they love me?’

like wow babe. good fucking point

#like you were on the ground biting the carpet and dry sobbing while you wrote that and still. good fucking point #not a shitpost #cptsd #and it's true. there's never a satisfying answer #the truth is i know why i wasn't loved #i analyzed my parent's traumas and abuse to death. i understand why i alienated and was alienated from my siblings #i know why my mom was too overwhelmed to be capable of nurturing #i know why my dad vanished into addiction and avoidance #the details of our cycles of trauma and cptsd and family history i have a phd in all of it #i understood perfectly. i spent years studying and now i knew the answer #and guess what? IT WAS NOT SATISFYING!!! #because they still didn't love me! and i still couldn't change that! #it was still a completely unsatisfying state of affairs! #so like. when the people who are supposed to love you...don't. #when the people who are supposed to take care of you...fail to #you can look for answers and reasons and explanations #but that's not actually going to FIX your situation. #and it's probably not within your ability TO fix the situation. (and definitely not your job) #because you don't need answers--you need a new situation #*inserts Just Walk Out. You Can Leave!!! (Running Skeleton) Meme* #and yes. walking out isn't always possible. #but for you i hope it will be one day soon. and i hope you build the courage to take that leap. #stepping away from the people who failed to love you...it feels like being untethered but also like being lighter than air #new and scary. immensely relieving. the future opens up. empty but empty like a canvas. blindingly bright until your eyes adjust #like climbing out of a pit you called home and for the first time realizing how bright the light of day can truly be #when you aren't just getting glimpses from the bottom of a hole

saw Barbie and I’m obsessed with the Ken war being, like, play fighting but then Allan got to commit actual violence as a treat

#barbie #barbie movie #barbie spoilers #theres probably an explanation but I don’t want to know it #just happy to accept that allan is allowed to commit atrocities

[kiwinatorwaffles]

every aromantic person who has to witness someone say “there is no non-romantic explanation for these characters” should be financially compensated

EDIT: if i see another one of you fuckers arguing “but sometimes they ARE just super romantic” i’m tired of being nice. i’m just gonna let you know that 1. amanormativity has rotted your fucking brain and 2. it’s people like you that are the reason why aros are suffering. other aros you are not absolved of this. just fucking listen to us for once and stop denying our experiences and pleas.

#turned off reblogs because people can’t behave LMAO #there is always a nonromantic explanation if you opened your eyes wide enough #like just say arospec people don’t matter to you and go #aromantic #aspec #kiwi’s aspec posting #kiwi’s calls #had to add an edit because i got too many stupid comments #aphobia
