the shibuya arc is almost over, i still cant believe it started off with 5 episodes of teen gojo and suguru having the best and then the worst time of their lives all to the back drop of a slice of life setting. I think i will always chose to live in those first 5 episodes they dedicated an entire marketing campaign to.

reading animorphs sequentially instead of in whatever random order you can get your hands on them is such a trip because you can see these kids getting progressively better at war and worse at being happy, you can see how traumatic events from one book echo into the next ones but never quite get dealt with because these kids have no real way to take care of their mental health, you can see their relationships deepening but simultaneously gaining friction and faultlines as they learn just how far they'd go for each other but also how far they'd go in general...
obviously this series was meant to be episodic in nature, and i actually think that might be the better way to first encounter it, but the arc of the series in publication order is extremely well-crafted

there is a sunrise and a sunset every day, and you can choose to be there for it
choose to put yourself in the way of beauty
#was thinking about this a lot this morning#(and woulda posted it then if it woulda let me LOL)#but tbh it’s something i think about a lot anyway#‘quote’ is maybe the wrong word because i can’t find the exact phrase in the book now#so I’m kinda paraphrasing#and i know it’s not exactly this but this is how i remember it in my head and this is what i tell myself#(but it’s from Wild - Cheryl Strayed & is apparently something her mum used to say to her)#(which is a book that i looooooooove love love btw)#but it just always helps me when i’m having a bad day or feeling like things generally aren’t good#like…. idk#yesterday i had a pretty bad day#after putting soooooo much work in i felt like my exam went pretty terribly and I was SO exhausted & deflated & sad & hopeless yknow??#but then last night i was trying to think about good things that had happened or just nice things/moments - however tiny & small#and it really did help to be like ‘huh! actually maybe it’s okay’#choose to put yourself in the way of things that will make you feel better#choose to acknowledge the good as well as the bad#i guess it’s like practicing gratitude#but idk. i’m wording this so bad bc i’m so braindead rn but i just wana say that THINGS ARENT AS BAD AS THEY SEEM#even on the worst days there are stillllllll beautiful things and still moments of happiness & still so much love & still good times to come#outside of whatever is troubling you there are MOUNTAINS and SUNSETS and OCEANS & so many people who love you no matter what#and there is so much possibility for good#it won’t always suck and whatever is bothering you rn really won’t (for the most part) matter in the grand scheme of your life#things will get better#but you have to allow yourself the opportunity!!!#CHOOSE TO PUT YOURSELF IN THE WAY OF BEAUTY#rant over bc this hasn’t gone nearly as eloquently as it would have had i been able to spit it out earlier#but yeah ✨✨✨ hope the gist comes across lol#mine#my pics#ur-average-girlnextdoor

I feel like one of the things i really like about this season is the themes of consumption and depersonalization. The way that people can consume other people, the way that people aren’t people but only a means to an end, the way that people are only as good as what they provide to you. You are only as good as your own narrative, on Society’s terms.

The type of Christian who asks atheists how they don't like, murder people on the reg are so funny to me because they seem to think their religion makes them the Peak of Morality when statements like "if you don't believe in God how comes you don't do X thing" all but outright state they have no idea why shit like murder and rape is bad except that God doesn't like it lmao. Like way to admit you have no intrinsic sense of morality and need to be afraid of a higher power to be a decent person, but I promise if you're not a piece of shit it's actually very natural not to want to do heinous evil shit all the time potential punishment from a higher power or not 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️
#winters ramblings#seriously its SO funny when that happens because every time its like ??? the FUCK kind of thoughts do you have#to ask HOW i resist doing evil shit all the time because i dont fear god because i dont believe in God??#what kind of fucked up person do you haveto be to only resist killing people because of fear of a higher power??#these are people to avoid because typically they also come with the issue of using their religion to make any action they want#perfectly Good and Moral because GOD said it its in the BIBLE whether thats true or not and like bible or no#if you have no intrinsic sense of morality i dont want to hear about atheist morality from you lmao#not that athiests lack issues i swear to god white dudes who evangelize atheism like its their new religion#have WILDLY missed the point and often suffer the same problem as the aforementioned Christians#wherein the onky thing thats ever given them any kind of pushback is the church so they decide RELIGION is horrible and bad as a whole#which isnt true religion can be a perfectly lovely amazing thing for people but that brand of atheist#doesnt seem to understand that people turned away from the church because of wide spread abuse and discrimination not because#believing in god makes you literally mentally ill like some of these fuckos act like. abelist AND shite to religious folks in one fowl swoop#so you know atheists have problems too but like they arent making laws in their beliefs images across the world so you know#temper the criticism with how influential the group actually is although richard dawkins types DID get a lot of space to spew their idiocy#like dawkims if you think youre SOOOO much smarter than christians how come you have ALL the same misogyny problems??#youre not that smart and logical if youve decided a whole kind of person is inherently less than you buddy. in fact thats very Christian#of him actually. funny when that happens but again if you dont actually know WHY something is a problem#its very easy to say Thats Bad and then literally do the exact same thing you just condemned because when YOU do it its no longer bad#because its got YOUR flavor of fucked up morality on it now instead of being like hmm maybe Christianity isnt a problem#because it EXISTS but because a lot of people use their religion as a pointed barb to discriminate against huge swaths of people#and often the intolerance becomes a legal issue when Christians and other religious majorities shove through laws based on EXCLUSIVELY their#religions and opinions and that doesnt mean religion should be dismantled it means we ahould tell religious folk who would know what#morality was if it fucked them up the ass to shut up and figure out what morality is outside of rekigion before they start legislating about#it and whatnot. also i wish extreme opinions werent ALL the news focused on exclusively on the political right#can we platform some NORMAL well adjusted christians who are god loving AND not a bunch of wingnuts#who are two steps away from arguing thou shall not kill only applies to people they LIKE because they dont seem to understand#maybe murder is bad when EVERYONE does it not just The Bad People??!?!

Actually here take this fun little idea.
Growing up, Elrond and Elros used to watch Maedhros grieve. They used to whisper to each other, for they were told that Elves who suffer and Feel too much may fade from their grief. Yet Maedhros has so much, he wraps himself up in his loss and his despair and guilt looms over him and makes his shadow even longer than his height. The twins whisper and murmur, coming up with wilder and wilder reasons for how an Elf so full of grief can go on.
Its Ages later when Elrond has the answer. Sometimes, when it seems you have lost everything, everyone, the only thing left to do is to continue on for them.

nobody can talk to ridge about fighting for the republic once he's succesfully escaped it, he's gotta be probably the most critical of the republic government out of all the clones. saying "our purpose [as clones] is to fight!" will get you "who told you that? The Kaminoans that 'bred' us for money or the government that won't pay us and won't let us vote?"

#vent art#first time drawing starscream in uhhh. hot. hot fucking minute there#i was shaky the entire time but drawing plankton helped a lot. plankton is safe#theyre both my number one main f/os. and idk i feel like... if you're starscream and if ur wife looks at u#and her ptsd is suddenly triggered. well. now she cant look at u anymore. that cant feel good can it#who else knows her and loves her like you do? some loud human-ish lifeform with a long ponytail#he sees you hurting. he sits in that grass with you. and you let him. bc he knows what it's like to miss her too#she doesn't fear him. but she doesn't see him as often. and he misses her terribly just like you do.#just as much as you miss her. even if it's a different kind of yearning. and he's hurting now too on her behalf#and you bond with this. this. pathetic lifeform. and youve become this. this. this... pathetic. pathetic! broken thing!#you know she'll come back you know she'll come back you KNOW IT#because doesn't she find you in every universe? and didn't you make promises? and doesn't she always keep them?#but maybe this universe is too broken and maybe she's too broken. maybe she *can't* come back#she's trying. you know she's trying. you FEEL it. what are you supposed to do in the meantime#you're starscream. you're lord starscream and you're lonely and your starflower can't fucking look at you#to no fault of hers and to no fault of yours. it's just what happened. you're in shock. and you're hurting.#this love still isn't temporary. and you still can't imagine your life without her.#and you wish you could obliterate whoever made her feel so fucking scared of you#fuck the person who dared to hurt that one good thing you ever had#you arent a religious mech but you pray and beg to primus your starflower comes back#because you dont know what youll do if she never does#and frankly. she doesn't either. you were her favorite weren't you? and suddenly you're something feared#you've always wanted to be feared but NEVER by her. she is the last person you'd ever want to be feared by#doesn't she miss your voice? haven't you told her with your own vocalizer how much you love and miss her? why doesn't she hear you anymore?#you don't know it but she is terrified of losing you. but she isn't here to tell you that. is she.#it's just you and this stupid nicely dressed copepod who wants to dominate the fast food industry#while your little starflower is laying in a pink bed in a pink land with pink people. and she's crying over you#throwing herself at universes with brooding men with soft voices. but none of them are ever going to feel as good as you made her feel#she misses you but you don't know it because she. can't. even. fucking. look. at. you.#what do you do. what do you do. do you come back? please come back. this ache in your chest is too fucking much. come. back.

to be honest idc how people feel about a certain show getting cancelled because tbf the fandom is incredibly annoying and i get why you wouldnt like the show, whatever. i found it to be like fun and watchable and there was a lot of skill put into costuming which is sometjing i enjoy. anyways i get why people would be like “haha it got cancelled” but to me it seems like. maybe streaming services arbitrarily cancelling pieces of original fiction all the time might be like ultimately bad for art

Find someone slightly annoying but in really small harmless ways so I decide none of the behaviours are worth bringing up with them → realizing: hey, Im also annoying! solidarity! → realizing we have a lot in common and starting to bond → finding out other people find this person annoying and are vocal about it behind their back → finding out this person has ADHD like me that's (at least one reason) why we have all these traits in common → fear.
#trying to be as vague as possible even tho this is someone I know offline and no one involved follows me online#on one level I get it that relying someone who is forgetful and does things slower/differently than you can be frustrating#but like its a medical condition. and u dont need to know someones medical info to have some empathy instead of assuming malice/incompetence#i just found out they have adhd today but day one i was able to go 'wow i did not like the way they handled that but i dont think they were#being hurtful/careless we just handle this task differently. rhey didnt do anything wrong and i can let this go and adjust my expectations'#not to say im perfect and never ableist towards others. my first reaction to seeing traits i dislike in myself (from my disabilities)#in others is often to get annoyed and needing to adjust my thinking#i get annoyed with myself when I cant focus / cant be coherent or concise / cant finish tasks quickly etc#→ get annoyed sometimes when I see others doing that → realize thats not fair to them → realize thats not fair to myself#→ assume good intentions and find ways to communicate/collaborate better with them → get along better and maybe make a new friend!#sorry i am rambling#idk its scary seeing someone being disliked for adhd symptoms/traits that im mostly doing a good job of managing/hiding in this#social environment so far and knowing that could happen to me in the future#but im also like ready to have this persons back#me 🤝 them: prioritizing the wrong tasks and overexplaining things and struglging to get our points across#and not noticing when we talk too loud and forgetting tasks halfway thru etc#not to be that guy but : without love it canmot be seen!!!!#lifes so much better if u just assume ppl arent doing things a certain way to be annoying + let go of / adapt to the thing that are annoying#but not harmful#thats not exactly what without love it cant be seen means but thats one of the ways i apply it in life#just like dont assume malice. assume u dont have all the info. approach ppl/situations with empathy.#or youll make yourself more miserable needlessly#again like only for shit that's not harmful obv#i need to shut up and go to bed

I feel rly weird around ppl w "maps dni" bc it just rubs me the wrong way that ppl equate others w those feelings to having committed an actual crime or done something otherwise bad for existing. It's like "bpd dni" or "intrusive thought havers dni" its all just thoughts i block people who make me uncomfortable thats it.
like its not my business what ppl r thinking yk. idc. also ive seen interviews n maps genuinely dont care/want to "invade the queer community" they know its a different thing ok. the fight to treat people like people is universal but the fight to do so for people whose thoughts you detest is closer to advocacy for unpalatable mental illness and general freedom to exist with badwrong thoughts than it is advocacy to be in a relationship with someone who can actually consent to you regardless of gender. Like. they know. everyone knows and if u think that would ever be a thing,, it wouldn't. the same way that groups for abortion rights are not the same groups you go to for idk trauma support.
obv sometimes its better not to post certain things even if its harmless text ppl will dogpile u and accuse u of things bc someone got triggered. but sue me if i dont think its a crime for ppl w badwrong attractions to exist and i think its weird that others think it is.
like im a sadist i know how this shit goes intimately. "killing and torturing people is bad." "yes." "you're a bad person and deserve to be hurt for it." "but i didn't kill or torture anyone and don't really plan on it?" "you're evil for even thinking or feeling it. you still deserve to be punished." "but i didn't DO.. ANYTHING??" "weirdo murder fetishizer is triggered lol xd get hit by a truck" "..." "ur disgusting and evil and you should kys for having badwrong thoughts." "but i'm not doing anything wrong." "idc ur a gross evil monster" "i have a feeling this isnt getting anywhere. bye."
^it's like y'all reach argument bedrock the moment someone drops the idea that you CAN HAVE "badwrong" thoughts and feelings that would be unethical to act on irl without acting on them or being a bad person by the simple sin of thinking them. this is puritan nonsense. all of you have thought "sinful" thoughts. all of you have wanted to do things that would be cruel or dangerous; because if you have a brain that just Happens, whatever the nature of the thought. If you want to yell at your kid that's fine, they're annoying you and you have every right to feel that way. If you actually yell at your kid you are hurting them and that's not OK. You want to go harass someone online because they said something stupid? Fine. You actually go and do that? Bad. how hard is this to understand. am i speaking alien.
also if u punch people and go to therapy for it you are not going with the goal of stopping this desire to punch people. you are going with the goal of finding ways to vent this feeling that dont hurt anyone and figuring out the root cause of it with your therapist to better understand how you can work together to prevent this from happening.
#pro para#thought crime#badwrong thoughts#thoughts are not actions#idk if u think someone can be evil or a criminal for having thoughts n feelings#how long before u turn on me and say the same thing for different thoughts n feelings#i dont trust people like that i dont like that#have u ever wondered why verbal/physical/sexual abuse are all real terms but thought abuse isn't#its because thoughts cannot abuse you#that's because thoughts exist outside reality and thinking something does not make it happen#it would be cool if people had telekenesis but i digress people DONT#i wonder what ppl expect when they say go to therapy for ppl theyve convicted in the court of fools as thoughtcrimers#like conversion therapy or?#because a good therapist if u come to them w thoughts ur guilty ab will ask you first 'who is this hurting'#and if the answer is no one or 'just me' the solution is to work on the guilt complex and understand that ur thoughts arent actions#literally the solution is to realize this basic thing#a therapist cannot and should not try to make you 'normal'#thats not what therapy is for#therapists want to make a plan with you as to how to deal with your thoughts and feelings in ways that work best for you without hurting you#or anyone else#you dont fight depression by trying to convince someone theyre wrong and their life isnt bad enough to end it#you fight depression by giving someone the tools and a plan to protect themselves from the thoughts and feelings that distress them#and by helping them accept themselves and fix anything in life thats bothering them#but you don't deal with trauma by telling someone they shouldnt feel like that and you dont deal w anything else like that either#idk point is#u dont go to therapy to be fixed u go to therapy to find out how to live a happier and healthier life#any therapist who claims they can fix whatever you think is wrong with you you should run far far away from#the point of therapy for people w paraphilias is to figure out how to cope and minimize any risk to the person or anyone around them#if its affecting day to day life

fang do u have any personal casual hookup rules u abide by in terms of safeguarding urself mentally and/or physically after the deed is done? i know u have a very rational insight to sex-ed & sex positivity and i appreciate it bc a lot of other ppl's advice and rules for casual sex boils down to no kissing (which is kinda heartbreaking to me but i'ma sap), use protection (obviously) or it just tilts in a way that shames women in particular for even wanting smth casual. sorry if this comes at an odd time i just feel like if anyone can give it to me straight it's you!!
ok i know u said for afterwards but i do want to say my number one general hookup advice which is don't have sex with someone you wouldn't share a meal with and don't have sex with someone who isn't willing to feed you afterwards!
this has been my general rule of thumb for any form of casual sex and relationships and it will save you a lot of trouble at any point. it's my golden rule for casual relationships.
its a very easy litmus test. if you ask the person you're sleeping with if they have any snacks or if they could get you some and they respond positively / without being confused or annoyed, you are like soo golden. even better if they offer without asking. it seems very basic, but sharing food like that is a very good sign they like genuinely see you as a person. don't sleep with someone who wouldn't be able to meet you at the most basic level of sharing food with you. its not an inherently intimate thing, but still shows respect. ik it seems random but im so serious
i think no kissing rule sucks booo i want to makeout i dont use it. protection is obvious. in terms of protecting yourself like 99% of the battle is just picking a person who is at a baseline decent like genuinely. so genuinely. but its also the hardest part
im not going to be helpful on the emotional front (ex manwhore) but physically drink a lot of water afterwards and keep some babywipes on you at all times!!!!! cleaning up downstairs and having washed hands can save ur life. i reccomend a toothbrush too like try to do all of those things immediately if u cant shower right away
