scrolling past every babygirl joke people make with a frown on my face

#💬nia.rambles #we as a society can do better than this #i think a lot of people can. struggle with What else to say #'babygirl coded charas“ specifically . talk about how easy it is to fluster them. how ur gonna annoy the shit out of them #call him a sopping wet kitten. say god hes such a dumbass im going to kiss him on the lips and serenade him #say missionary because his eyes pretty and his face handsome. say youre going to tuck his hair behind his ear #His x y z looks and cringe fail personality have captivated me. his big eyes and loser boy personality. #this is also for when ur trying to talk about female charas w/o saying girlboss/mother btw #just go god shes so fucking cool. no ones doing it like her #someone might want her but you want her in a deeper intellectual way. no crimes to forgive because she didnt commit any. #she could fix me could make me worse she could say whatever and i would heed her call like a devout follower to their god #go i need them so bad im dizzy. i could change their life #like u have the brain capacity and meme/reaction album to think of jokes outside of. 3 terms. i believe in u #& how did babygirl charas go from ironic Big (serious) muscular men to Feminine Featured(?)

Shoutout to all the other adults who have acne or any other condition of the skin that you are expected to outgrow or "just deal with."

Adulthood isn't this magical time where everything just disappears, and the reality is that these skin conditions are largely genetic. It isn't your fault (nor your skin's fault) that you are an adult with different skin than other people. In fact, it's neutral (and even, dare I say, good!).

#positivity #body positivity #acne positivity #i have skin redness and acne still and it actually is a neutral thing at worst :3 #in fact it makes me feel better because it gives me the (false) notion that i am genetically more like him than anybody else :) #he has the same unique features i do :) #and it's helped me appreciate body moles and non-ski slope noses and boney features #as much as people like to pretend that body image is shallow (it can be) it's still not a moral failure to be insecure #we live in a society after all and it's inevitable that society's messaging can become like a malevolent growth in your brain #it's okay if you have a hard time with the reality that your features are neutral at WORST. it's hard to swallow that pill sometimes #but no matter what just know that you are lovable and you are loved. as you are too #do what you want forever dear reader #oh hey the 'him' that the tags didn't include is my dad! not some Mystery Guy lmaooo

#salandit #something-something female-dominated society which is why only the female ones can evolve #i think that is a little bit dumb. it's like. oh only the females can evolve bc the males are all malnourished and they give their food #to the females so only the females are capable of evolving but it's like ok. if a trainer catches a male salandit. it can be assumed that #they're gonna take better care of it than the wild would?? and like. ideally i believe that it would then become capable of evolution #bc its new trainer like. took care of it better. that's all i'm sayin i think male salandit should be able to evolve but maybe with like #different requirements or something. higher level requirement maybe #but naauuuurr tpc would never let us have a man that looks as slutty as salazzle does #even though we have primarina (thank you tpc) (thank you) (for the pretty boy capabilities) (also braixen) (thank you tpc) (do it again)

I like Serizawa a normal amount (lie) I don't think about him and his backstory and his development all the time (lie) I don't think about how he's one of the first people to truly understand what Mob went through after getting all of Mob's emotions and memories blasted at him in the Culture Tower (lie) I don't think about how he might be the only person besides Dimple that knows everything about Mogamiland (and he actually knows more than Dimple because he saw EVERYTHING) (lie) I don't ever think about how he would have ended up being so different if he'd had a good support system growing up (this is not to say that I hate his mom she was trying her damnedest and the claw thing isn't really her fault she just wanted the best for him) (lie) I never ever think about serizawa and his mom reconnecting and how emotional that must have been (lie) I don't think about him growing his confidence while working at S&S and finally growing to be more independent after relying on Toichirou and Claw and his umbrella for so long (lie) I don't think about how he still uses an umbrella as a shield in the last/second to last episode (THE PARALLELS BETWEEN HIM DEFENDING REIGEN WHEN SERIZAWA FIRST MEETS HIM AND HIM DEFENDING HIM IN THE LAST FEW EPISODES. ALSO I WISH SERIZAWA HAD HAD A MOMENT WITH MOB LIKE EVERYONE ELSE UGH THAT WOULD HAVE MADE ME BAWL SO MUCH HARDER THAN I DID) (lie) Yeah I'm so normal about him I don't think about him that much (lie)

#i think that we as a society do not talk about Serizawa's complete dependence on Toichirou and how much it must have taken #to betray him and defend Mob and Reigen and Shou #like. HELLO?? #that man had been so toxically dependant on Suzuki for like probably at least a decade #he literally became a terrorist because he blindly trusted this man so much #also can we talk about the parallels between Mob's blind trust in Reigen and Serizawa's blind trust in Suzuki? #obviously Reigen is a much better person than Suzuki but the parallels are there nonetheless #did you notice that i got sick of spelling out toichirou and just went with suzuki? cause i did #i hate typing out Toichirou #its not even hard jts just a pain in my ass #mp100 #also i know that deep down both Mob and Serizawa knew that the people they believed were lying that just adds another parallel #actually wait did mob know #i dont remember #im pretty sure he sort of did #or at least ???% him did

Does anybody else feel like mental health awareness has done very little to help them in material reality

#i was gonna say done nothing to help but that seemed too harsh #like there definitely is more knowledge about it now. maybe more people feel comfortable speaking about it which is good #but personally i don't feel that. like idk. workplaces will post about mental health awareness and then do nothing to help employees #the same w universities. my uni cut back the already meager mental health support #and then the government is doing absolutely fuck all as well #like idk im just back in a place i thought id gotten out of long ago and i still don't feel comfortable talking about it with people #maybe that's a me problem or maybe it's cultural or something idk. but in the 10 years ive been depressed (🫠) i don't think it's gotten a #whole lot better. teenagers are still dealing with the same shit i did and they're still not being taken seriously #women's mental health is not even spoken about.....anxiety depression sh eds etc are still ignored or seen as hysterical behaviour in women #or just normal esp with disordered eating. society hasn't changed people still want women to be stick thin and weak #like i know 10 years is a short time and there has been massive improvements in mh awareness if we look back over the past 50+ years #but idk i just think that it hasn't gotten better for a lot of people #i think specifically of belfast and like god. the amount of trauma there is the amount of homelessness the amount of substance abuse #drug abuse in particular that has gotten visibly worse over the past decade or so* #and i connect the dots n see the 2008 recession + a tory gov defunding the nhs + dehumanisation of homeless people & addicts + the troubles #+ ptsd + generational trauma + a negative peace + classism + paramilitary drug dealers + parties linked to those paramilitaries #and its like hmmmm i think we live in a society. and a mental health approach based on individual actions like journaling and meditation #isn't the way to go. or at least is not the be all and end all which is what a lot of mental health awareness raising seems to promote #*visibly worse on the streets. it was always a problem ofc but even a decade ago my parents never imagined it would be as bad as it is now #and it's become so normalised. i do think there's less individualism here than there seems to be elsewhere which can be good and can be bad #but i think we are becoming more and more individualistic. slowly. there's still a sense of community here but i do think it's changing #and callousness towards homeless people is one of the most obvious examples of this. #love when i put a wee asterisk in the tags of a post. like i have A Lot To Say lol

you’re thinking about how easily massive numbers of the wildly antisemitic tankies would have been pulled into the actual political tenets of (esp early to mid 20th century) armed Zionism and you’re laughing?????

#This folks is why analysis of ideology and the structures of an ideology is important #Rather than just random ass ethnic signposting #A lot of people see Zionism as something suspicious and jewy that had to do with Jews - I don’t like them #But the reality of Zionism as an initially distinctly leftist branch of political ideology that sought to liberate an oppressed people #With that tiny niggly wiggly issue of the fact people might #Already have lived on that land???? Ohhhh boy #All these cottage core back to the land the world would be better if I could reject modernity and return to the ancient ways of Farming #Society is broken it cannot be fixed the only option is to found a New Tough society that will fix all our previous problems #And we’ll get round to it in heavily armed leftist commune farming settlements #Which we will defend with violence because any violence in the name of an oppressed people is justified and our legitimacy comes from the #Rifle!!! #The only reason you see this ideology as inherently removed and bizarre is antisemitism and the only reason you see yourself removed from i #Also antisemitism!!! #You would have done numbers in ahdut ha-avoda you would have called Ben gurion abbaleh/ #Remember: a bunch of the people who got sucked into this of ideology weren’t the *rich Republican aipac Jews*!*’ your head #They were broke often very secular Jewish leftists working dead end gig economy jobs in farms and sweatshops for whom the idea of a Brave #New World with a. Brave new culture was very appealing and liberating #It offered something new to the broken. #It’s important to talk about this stuff to talk about how it can be undone #But also. The world is not divided into the Oppressed and the Unoppressed #Your political ideology does not stop you from hurting others #No political ideology even anti capitalism or leftism is innately pure- all can harm others #No ethnic and cultural identity no matter how oppressed is free from the potential to subjugate others #No identity or ideology is greater than the right of other people to live freely #Cycles of oppression and the pyramid structure of many empires result in oppressed people harming other oppressed people #Many many goyim think that they’re removed from the logic of Zionism because they aren’t Jews because it’s something wierd and jewy #But I see a lot of the most destructive logics parroted by leftists every day

so many peoples allyship to trans women is just 99% calling them beautiful and then only supporting them when you find them attractive like you people are MISOGYNISTS anyway shout out to trans women who look average as hell and are just some girl

#there's several posts that go around here that will say things we would all recognise as misogynistic af if said abt a cis woman just saying #society if people remembered that transmisogyny is a form of misogyny as opposed to like some ancient dark art possibly involving demons #cuz I'll never forget the era when ppl were like u should never look at radf/ems blogs or learn anything abt what they believe bc they migh #convince you.... can you imagine if ppl were like don't look at r slash redpill they might convince you. #plus I would like people to be more aware of the time tax of beauty #like women have more important things to do w our time #shout out to all the other contributions trans women make to the world w their time #rather than spending it contributing to the male gaze + the at once patronising and envious and appraising cis female ally gaze #also regarding that glow up post I don't think u realise that a lot of ppl put off transition bc they r worried they look better as their a #and like. firstly beauty is subjective and I personally think you 'look better' when ur happier and more comfortable in urself #but also even if u DID get less conventionally attractive that would be irrelevant because u do not exist to be attractive #and u will certainly not become unlovable by becoming more of urself

though at first glance the difference between the amount of canonically queer shadowhunters in tmi and in tlh may just appear to be a reflection of shifting irl norms in including lgbtq+ characters in fiction, i believe that not only is it a subversion of beliefs about the early 1900s saying that queer people had to live in secret, but also a commentary on the way that the progress of time does not always equal the progress of belief, especially after the rise of conservatives into power. one must bear in mind that in 1903, the shadowhunter with the most power over the Clave was Consul Charlotte Fairchild; in 2007, it was rogue shadowhunter and known blood supremacist and bigot Valentine Morgenstern. In text, we can see the reflection of these two time periods (1903 and 2007) as Anna and Ari able to dance together on the dancefloor in view of everyone with little issue, and Alec Lightwood kissing Magnus Bane in the view of everyone to lots of shock and surprise. In this essay I will

#idk if this makes any sense but i like this idea better than just ‘she can write more gay characters and now she does.�� #also this is meant to be specifically about shadowhunter society and not downworlders. we just do not get to see their politics as much. #anyway. #the shadowhunter chronicles #the mortal instruments #the last hours #chain of thorns spoilers #chain of thorns

[curiosity-killed]

Not to be like a crotchety old grandpa waving my cane at middle school hooligans but I do wish (especially) young, very online queer folks would take a sec to learn a little more about like political movements and social change

#like yes rainbow capitalism is superficial and frustrating and oftentimes hypocritical #but throwing a tantrum about it doesn’t tell those companies to do more meaningful work #it tells them we’re not a market and therefore they should for profit’s sake target other audiences #which like yeah IS shitty and not how social change should work #but we do live in a capitalist society atm #and until The Glorious Revolution Directly Leading Us to Utopia shows up #we work with the tools we have #similarly politics #like listening to the decision on the Louisiana bill #the legal arguments used to table it make me bristle a little #I don’t think children’s identities should come down to parents’ choice #(this is a simplification) #BUT by using the arguments they chose #those legislators are speaking to a population that can be convinced to care abt this shit #and doing it in a way that for instance I would struggle to #and that’s good!! #because it is actually better to have momentum gaining towards a goal #than it is to get locked up in infighting and pushing away potential support #people run races for a lot of different reasons #but the fact that everyone is aiming for the same goal #is what makes it a race rather than chaos #anyway I am off my soapbox this is just. a persistent frustration #personal

hello anon who I’m 95% sure is just that one teen who recently deadass made a Lucio hate blog in 2023

Thanks for invalidating whatever repetitive arguments you tried to make later by making this opening

Anyway, good luck, it seems like Lucio lives rent-free in your head despite you not enjoying him. Must be tough being this angry all the time. I suggest jorunaling.

#hey we as a society rarely recognize 18-22 as a very rough age to be in #when I was going through it a friend called it ''the end of the world age'' and I quite agree lol #do try to find better outlets tho. there are so many battles out there you really can find a more productive one kiddo #also hey!! my first anon hate with ACTUAL effort put into it! after all these years #decent main content though again you just haven't said anything new. would go better like in 2018 #-5 points for the opening. weak. immediately makes you seem petty and puts most of the receiver's followers against you #the ending was funny though good job #still pretty obvious who you are tho. so I can't give you more than a C :/

[silenthillbunni]

Why would you wish your neighbors to fkn die just because they make noise?

gosh some ppl are way too sensitive and cant handle ppl saying anything at all huh

#bc im angry and they are RUINING MY DAY EVERY SINGLE DAY #bc they make noise that wouldnt be heard if they didnt live in next to empty apartments #bc im extremely nosie sensitive and get sensory overload very easily and noise makes me suicidal and homicidal #good for you that you dont care!!!! you are FORTUNATE for not being this heavily affected by noise. you're not better than me. ur lucky #grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr it makes me so annoyed that ppl like u just cant handle mentally ill ppl VENTING. #am i sending them death threats? no. am i beating them up? no. am i sending complaints to them? no. i am enduring my suffering #bc we live in a world where nobody cares abt ppl who arent normal. i am in genuine physical pain bc of this everyday #do u think this is fun for me???? do u think i want to be like this? no! i'd kille to be like u who can walk unaffected thru life!!!!!! #do u think i enjoy spending my days in agony just bc noise upsets me? i cant fkn focus on my school work!!!!!!! or anything else!!!!!!!!! #do u know that there is NOTHING i can do? i have to accept a life of daily torment bc im noise sensitive #if society allowed me i'd live in specific apartments designed for noise sensitive ppl. or in a cottage on the countryside #but society dont give a fuck abt ppl who diverge from being normal #also omfg just bc i vent and say i wish they died dont mean i actually genuinely want them to die #why are y'all so black and white?????? why is it so hard to understand that just bc u express smth in anger dont mean u ACTUALLY want it #tbh y'all are too much. and fkn unfair. ppl are actually allowed to vent in anger and let out steam and not suppress their emotions #i have never done anything to cause another person harm. i even have high blood pressure bc im so stressed out yet i never do anything #i have done NOTHING to harm my neighbors. the only thing i do is vent on my blog #do u really think theyre magically gonna die just bc i vent abt it??????? #bro fuck off you made me even angrier like if u cant handle ppl expressing ugly thoughts #u and i are not compatible bc *i* know that u need to express things u might not even mean #but u clearly dont and need everyone to be uwu peace and love and perfect so just leave me alone go awayyyyyyyyyyy

When someone tries to do an “annoying person” voice and it’s just. A Woman Voice™️ again

#y’all could like try to make it sound a little more cartoony at least #i know we Live In A Society that has meme-ified any woman having an objection to something as Being A Karen™️ #but we can do better than that #let’s shoot for 10% better this week

[colognedecigarette]

welp. it's official: can't talk to either of me parents about issues pertaining to my identity. 🥲

#personal #me mum has more of a what i'd call ''defeatist outlook'' #which basically is just ''well that's just how the world works. no can do except to just take it as it is'' #like she doesn't see society as a construct and thus something that not only can we change but also we MUST change for the better #whereas me dad has more of a ''fuck em all!!'' stance #where he's like ''who gives a shit what anyone else think! live your truth to the fullest!!'' without understanding how fucking scary it is #like me mum understands the fear she just. surrenders to it i guess #while me dad doesn't seem to understand that at all and can't comprehend why i wouldn't do it #don't get me wrong i still love them both terribly and they're both very very supportive and accepting of me #without making a big deal out of it. which is already more than i can ask for #but they don't *get* it. both of them just have fundamentally different views of how the world works/how it's supposed to work than i do #i don't like fighting and even less so with my parents so i guess i'll just. have to find other people to talk to. #which is sad but. that's how it goes sometimes i guess.

I believe that more badass women in canon should treated like pathetic losers in fanon like how people say how edgy badass man character is so pathetic meow meow actually.

I know also we are currently living in times that general fandom culture making this impossible without being subtly sexist unfortunately but it would be nice.

Majority of people are still giving men they talk like trash lovingly more value than women they praise to the heavens

#i like girlboss and feminism jokes #i am also dont believe in gender actually all of them roles in my eyes #anyways i just hate how every woman treated as queens best ever exist so much #it made me feel terrible when i was a kid i felt like i am extremely inferior to everybody #because girls are below of men naturally in eyes of society #and they can be only superior when they are extremely impossibly perfect and badass and queens #which i am not and never will be #women in fiction women in cartoons were mostly for me always so foreign to me #and i felt like they are the real correct respectable womens who deserve praise and better than boys #and i am the loser worse useless girl and this is justified actually #while we are all equal stupid 5 years old in there #i am doing my 5 year old selfs psychoanalysis in my tags amazing #n. #i want respect not praise but people in real life i know can't understand it #you still see women lesser than men misters and some missuses it doesn't matter you are praising women all the time

I think in the whole convo around why its hard to make friends today really understimates how technology has essentially ripped peoples masks off to show how toxic they can become and how repelling and even scary it can be interacring with ppl bc of it. Bc of tiktok. Bc of ppl filming you secretly. Bc the "bullying is good, actually" people. Literally that video of that lady lying to her neighbor and then the neighbor confronted her and she gaslighted the neighbor like. You might laugh but deep down you know youd never hang out w that person on a deep level. You know that person would just be toxic. At this point being alone seems more appealing bc you dont have to risk all this weird bullshit. Its almost worth the touch starvation n all the other physical and mental bullshit that comes w loneliness n shit if every friend geoup is going to try to eventually moralize their hate of you and kick you out of a friend geoup for being too "cringe" and then put you on blast online and then all the commentors just laugh and dont think deeply about the situation bc theyre just there to laugh and are prolly just as fuckin toxic. Like we got a real issue here yall. Wtf is going on. Ppl in my generation are so fucking unlikeable.

#why be lonely and fucked up bc of it with extra trauma when you can just be lonely and fucked up bc of it #why make the situation worse and risking having more trauma than you already do #and hey! its not like i like feeling this fuckin way! but i dont trust any of yall and i dont think i ever will be able to #to the person taking this post and pointing and laughing at it! IM LOTERALLY TALKING ABOUT YOU! #MAYBE GO FUCKING LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND ASK WHY YOU GOTTA BE SO FUCKIN UNLIKEABLE TO EVERYONE #SHIT DAWG. BE BETTER. #technology just gave people a whole new and worse way to abuse people. #please fucking understand: THIS ISNT FUCKING NORMAL #and yes before your moralizing ass gets up in here this IS one of those times where normalcy is good actually. where have an inherent #sense of human decency for others is actually a GOOD thing society tries to teach people. #sometimes not EVERYTHING is worth getting rid about *society* #god. all i ever wanted was a nice friend group where ppl dont make fun of me for being different. apparently that's too much to ask for #these days. idk what happened but some time when the 2000's became the 2010's ppl just became fucking awful randomly. #like all of that. loving yourself freely no mayter how cringe shit just suddenly vanished. i thought maybe humanity would see the light #again some day but i guess fuckin nah. #whatever. i hope we all rot at this point.
