Vrains is one of the funniest things I've ever seen, with ridiculous line and batshit insane logic and situations even by Yugioh standards.
Yet it's simultaneously horrifying, discussing things that are genuine fears for me: humanity becoming overly dependent on automation, an AI gaining free will. For God's sake a very specific fear I have is riding in a self-driving car and VRAINS specifically depicted two people being horrifically injured in a self-driving car accident. Because the AI failed and drove them right into a wreck instead of slamming on the breaks.
Not to mention Yusaku and Takeru's reactions to their trauma, some of which are just... Painfully familiar to me.
So yeah VRAINS is great and has already made me cry like three times so I can't imagine what the rest of this show is gonna do to me.

tw serious talks, ig? i don't really think its anything bad but i feel like there should be a warning for some deep shit maybe 😅both in post and in tags so fair warning
sometimes i get so overwhelmed with the general idea of living that i think it pushes me to extremes sometimes
like, some days i'm fine, i'm living just like any other fandom-obsessed tumblr user (albeit with the long breaks where my brain just forgets that in order to share stuff i have to set up posts lol), but some days, especially recently....god.
i feel so much love that i cant stop smiling, or i feel so excited for no reason that i cant stop moving. i feel so empty or so alone i unconsciously curl in on myself and just have to wait for it to pass. i want to hug and hold and move and do and cry and lay still and be and i question and i don't question and the world is alive and alove.
and it hurts, but i finally get what people mean when they say that its worth it. because it is. because with all of the pain and loneliness, i've finally figured out that i enjoy life. even the simplest of things.
its not easy. its not simple or clean or perfect but its there and its beautiful and every moment i feel that spark of euphoria that the world has good in it, even in teeny tiny things, i fall more in love with the idea of life. i get what people mean when they say they feel loved by life and i feel that. and it feels wonderful.

Bodily autonomy is not just about abled people choosing not to have a baby, it's also about respecting disabled people's right to have one. And it's not just about mentally ill people's right to treatment and meds, but also about their right to refuse both. It's about respecting people's right to choose for themselves, even when you disagree with their choices. Real bodily autonomy includes the right to make a choice that YOU wouldn't make or advocate for

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...
#not a shitpost#serious post#ask to tag#tw trauma#cptsd#c-ptsd#and if so we should TALK about it#because it means there are a whole group of survivors out there whose mental health regularly worsens during holidays#like i know i am most certainly not the only person who feels an undefined Dread hanging over christmas/my birthday/july 4 etc#bc too many shitty things happened during those times and now my brain is hypervigilant bc traditionally these are the Danger Times#and this seems like it would be particularly common for survivors of abusive/dysfunctional households (aka most people with c-ptsd)#because holidays/vacations typically mean 1) the whole family is together/being forced to interact#2) and undergoing external stressors e.g. travel/relatives aka 'outsiders' visiting/routines & coping mechanisms being interrupted etc#3) there is social pressure for this to be a Fun Family Bonding Experience which only highlights the cracks in the foundation#and exposes the common Everything Is Fine/We Are A Happy Family lie#4) the cognitive dissonance of feeling tired/anxious/stressed/afraid during a time when you are 'supposed' to be Making Good Memories#and then everyone is angry/tired/anxious/triggered and things boil over and something or someone goes Very Wrong#weird that i'm posting this in october when halloween is...sort of the ONLY holiday i have only good and happy feelings towards#i got lucky there#also i have positive feelings towards Labor Day but that's for socialist reasons

Mew but- but god.
General concept for this "redesign":
Mew is like a forgotten creation God, sure there are references here and there about them but they're never directly mentioned. They're implied to exist but no one's really sure ya know?
Nowadays they just wander about, playing little pranks and messing around for the most part.
Arceus had shaped the universe with it's thousand arms and Mew gave the universe life by scattering it's soul.

A reminder that Wilbur Soot has been trying to go by his legal name of Will Gold in some parts of the music industry. His full name is William Patrick Gold. If you see that name, that's him. Do not let this bitch ever get the chance to even try and rebuild his reputation.

Riding in a self-driving car is a real fear of mine for exactly the reason VRAINS depicted. And it just spiked my anxiety by about 200% 😰

Hazbin Hotel is actually healing my inner ex-Christian so hard.
No joke, I nearly started cheering when Lute called Charlie and Vaggie’s love “vile and blasphemous” (and then burst out laughing when Adam immediately followed it up with “Hot as fuck though”). I know that may sound weird considering that I am, in fact, a lesbian, but here me out:
Seeing Christians being explicitly homophobic onscreen? It validates me. It makes me think “Oh yeah, I’m not crazy, Christians are that hateful!” And, call me crazy, but I think homophobia being tied in with villainy is a good thing. Neither Adam or Lute are supposed to be good people; they are very obviously the villain, and that establishes their behavior as bad. Someone on Twitter said that Lute gave them religious fanatic vibes and I couldn’t agree more.
And here’s the thing, too: it’s explicit homophobia, not some dumb metaphor. There’s no way to take it as anything else. And I really need that. I need to see Christians being explicitly homophobic onscreen in the same way that other people need and create worlds where homophobia doesn’t exist.
But me? I want my pain and suffering acknowledged. I want the harm that Christianity does acknowledged. Homophobia is real and the religious kind doubly so. I related to Vaggie so much in that episode; I felt her trepidation about going back to Heaven. Felt like a good metaphor for escaping a fundamentalist church only to be forced to visit again.
And Viv is not afraid to explicitly point this out and criticize them. Like, yes! Say it! They are hypocrites! They don’t care about people being better, they only care about punishment! They maimed one of their own and left her to die because she spared a child! They’re homophobic freaks! They would never see the good that Angel does and how he’s improved and is wonderful, they only see that he’s a drug addict and a sex worker and think he’s worthless for that even though Jesus broke bread with sex workers and people considered the dregs of society. (And of course Angel is gay on top of that.)
And another thing: not only did the Adam line make me laugh, but the second homophobic Lute line about “he blew his shot like the cocks in his mouth” cracked me up too. It reminded me of the pilot where Katie Killjoy said “I don’t touch the gays” to Charlie, which is a line that made me laugh for 4+ years straight. When I told my brother that was the funniest homophobia I’d ever heard in media, he very wisely said, “All homophobia is funny if you think about it.” And you know what? He’s right. It is funny, because it’s so fundamentally goddamn stupid, so let’s give characters ridiculous lines so everyone can laugh at how idiotic they and their beliefs sound.

Idk I haven't seen anything about which justices actually voted for overturning it it's Alito Thomas Gorsuch Kavanaugh and Barrett I just think it's really important I think we should be. Name dropping them so that people know who to be angry at. Maybe

I don't know who needs to hear this, but 99% of the time that ex of yours is not actually a narcissist or a sociopath simply because they sucked and you hate them. By using these words you are in fact demonizing actual mentally ill people, unlike your ex who is far more likely to just be an asshole

I genuinely hate when people invalidate demiromantic/demisexual/other labels in general by saying somethin like "OMG!!!! why do these labels exist that's how every relationship is!!!!! what has this generation come to?!!?,!?!!"
some people out here are dating someone they just met two days ago. while it literally took me two whole years of getting to know someone before having a crush on them. can y'all please not find excuses to invalidate aspec/arospec people. thanks

ah yes america, the land of freedom, where sure using the restroom or wearing a skirt is illegal, but our god-given liberty to purchase military-grade machine guns from the local pawn shop is protected at all costs. praise heavens, what a country!
