I implore Kaylors to take a step back and know that any swiftie who thinks reputation is about toe will not be able to understand the many layers of this new album and I wouldn’t expect them to. There’s alot to unpack it took years for us to fully understand reputation. Don’t be bogged down by the people saying “this is what this song is about” and talking in an overtly arrogant way as if there’s only ever one layer to a song. Each song and lyric are about multiple things at once. When they don’t understand something they attach their own meaning to it but that does not necessarily make that true.

you should never feel like you’re waiting for your desires. likewise, you should never be looking for “movement”
manifesting is instant. so when you give it to yourself in imagination through acceptance, you shift into the state of being/having whatever you desire. and at this point you either have it or you don’t. there is no in between.
so if you feel like you’re waiting, it’s because you haven’t fully. fulfilled. your. desires. within. to you, it’s still something you want or have to get. and the whole point of fulfilling your imagination is to get rid of wanting your desires and just have/be your desires.

notes from others to myself: 2022 edition 
don’t always show your true feelings. use humour. makes things less awkward sometimes.
your heart is not a home for cowards.
so what if you gave parts of you away to these people? you’ve been giving parts of you away since that first friend you made in kindergarten but your essence is not finite so it’s okay.
itna load mat le. don’t stress about this/overthink.
don’t split infinitives when you write.
you can’t let your past experiences lower your standards.
sometimes you have to view problem solving in binary. if you can solve a problem, great. solve it and it no longer exists. if you can’t solve it and there’s nothing you can do about it then stressing about it is of no use either.
you’re so warm. you’ll make friends wherever you go.
using a metal whisk helps lighten hickeys/love bites quickly. 
you can’t just keep collecting these days, one-off days, with people and justify that it’s okay because these days are beautiful. because in the long-term it leaves you with nothing. nothing but pain. 
stop now. stop looking for that connection with people. maybe you already have it with those in your life and you’re just not investing in it. either way, stop.
habits are the compound interest of self-improvement (atomic habits)
assuming people have your best interest at heart and seeing the world from rose-tinted glasses - that cannot be your starting point; that cannot be your default. 
it’s okay if your starting point is - people are assholes. but it has to be people are assholes and I accept that, I am okay with that. I’ll see the good in people when it shows up. but if your starting point is people are assholes and that’s not okay, it’s not helpful.
it's okay to make mistakes. everyone does that. even if you know that you're making a mistake when you’re making it. but once you've done it and you face the consequences and you're like okay this isn't how I want to continue or how I thought it would be...it's alright.
when you ask someone to not judge you or something that you are saying, you are, in a way, insulting them by asking them to not use their sensibilities. 
you may desire and deserve the love of men and others but not their shit. look at yourself and everything that you have been through in the last 25 years. everything you've dealt with. everything you've survived. and then you'll know that you deserve better. and anybody who doesn’t see that doesn’t need to be a part of your life. 
every science begins as philosophy and ends as art. 
any man who makes you feel so horrible about yourself doesn't deserve to be in your life. no matter what a good guy he might otherwise be or what he may have done for you in the past. 
it’s like we have this extension chord when it comes to our emotions. when we feel something for a man, no matter how many “buts” no matter how impossible a future together is, our emotional extension chord keeps going on. think our scissors are rusty. we need to fix those rusty scissors and cut the chord off in time, cut our losses like they do. 
you have the softest skin. I was afraid to even hold you because touching you tightly left marks on your body. I cannot forget your skin. or how you kissed. yours were the softest kisses. 
just write a horrible book. all you have to do is write a horrible book. when you say that to yourself during the writing process, you take off the pressure of having to write something good and just write. and for a first draft, that’s the only thing you need - write. 
you need to stop underestimating yourself and letting idiots in. you are beautiful, smart, kind, and funny. these adjectives may seem common but a person being all these things? you? rare. why don’t you see that? the moment a person is treating you like shit, you should be like “bhenchod, there is the door. get out.”
the people who do such childish, immature things are actually the ones who are really messed up. they are the ones hurting on the inside and they don’t even know it so that can translate into behaviour that is petty, insensitive, and dense towards others. don’t get mad at them, don’t take it personally. 
retract your claws. 
decide what you want - micro term, short term, long term, or life long - with the person. because all four are very different things. 
the intensity of your reactions to present situations are simply the compounded impact of everything you have been through this year. and if you don’t hit pause and process what’s happened, you will reach a point where everything will be so jumbled up that you won’t be able to see anything clearly. 
the two ends of a spectrum, though seem the opposite, often tend to have many similarities 
yes, you are a demisexual but that doesn’t mean you can’t do casual. what you really want is quality of conversations and connections. that’s the way you are demisexual. not that you need something long-term to share something with someone or feel anything towards them. it’s about can you sit and have an interesting conversation with them and can the two of your get and respect each other? that’s what it is.

I low key despise being in a fandom and someone treats me like absolute garbage… especially those who are newer fans who act like they own the series…
Like listen, sit down…
I been around this since the earlier years of it,
Hetalia has been around since 2006 and it got really popular in the west around about I’d say 2010-2011… it really started hitting its peek.
I personally was in the fandom (me and my best friend) back around 2011-2012… we had Facebook roleplaying accounts of our Hetalia plushies, and we had accounts on a site called Enjin where we would talk about hetalia together and carefully cruise deviantart for pictures we liked of our characters.
We also did some Hetalia stuff on Gaia. (if you guys remember this site, total props to you. I tilt my hat to you.)
We also watched the show on the iPad and sometimes through tv we’d have to find whatever videos we could at the time that were so shit quality…
But anyways…
I don’t like people policing others on the fandom, I think it’s dumb and really fucked way to restrict creative expression,
There is a difference in differentiating fictional from fact…
It is also A-okay to not know every single bit of history each nation/country has on it..
Hence why we all should discuss and talk about historical events in a calm manner and if someone doesn’t know everything about said country/nation, then educate. And don’t be a doucheball about it. (Not everyone’s a walking historian with all knowing knowledge.)
It is okay to only like certain ships and characters.
It is okay to self ship!
It is okay to make AUs/Headcanons of what you like.
And it’s okay to write sensitive/controversial topics, provided you be tasteful about it and don’t act like a horse’s ass about it.
What’s NOT OKAY:
Being racist, sexist, antisemitic by any means towards another fan or character through via the user/artist. (And what I mean by this is, if you roleplay/write as a character you know that’s gonna be in any of these categories of no-nos and you’re trying to stay in character, be mindful about it and make sure to tell beforehand, remember… DDDNE. Use your tags, set warnings. Make sure to be mindful.)
Condone inappropriate topics or glorifying them. (Self explanatory, there’s a difference in writing about ww2 than actually going out and trying to relive it, duh.) (same for terrorism, if you’re writing about terrorism, then don’t actually go out and do it! Like this is a given.)
Acting like a conceited, jealous, rude individual.(this is self explanatory, at the end of the day… you do not OWN the characters. I treat them like they are people that exist among us, even if fictional. So you don’t go and try and claim someone like some unhinged person. That’s disrespectful. Oh and, not everyone will like your OTP, so don’t shove it down people’s throats.)
Recognize and take safety precautions when engaging in sensitive/controversial subjects, and if you don’t agree with another fan and it gets you worked up or triggered, disengage and block!
That.
Is what you should be doing when you’re in a fandom like Hetalia.
History isn’t pretty, history isn’t kind. But what parts there are, make use of it. And most importantly enjoy what you like!
You guys are essentially fangirl/boying over countries for gods sake, so understand there’s historical events that were less than favorable…
And if someone is oppressed and they are writing such topics that you 🫵 want to police, do NOT do it!
I’m Ashkenazi Jewish and if I decide to write about Ludwig (Germany)and his internal conflict about ww2 and his now girlfriend Brigitte/Malka (Israel) and their tragedies they went through it, then I will do so. I have that right! That’s highly inappropriate to shush me of how I portray my pain through fictional works, or anyone of that matter.
My grandmother said to me,
“The way to be able to confront your demons is by dissecting your pain.”
We as humans, have used artistic and creative expression to use as an outlet for emotional turmoil and pain since the very beginning days of humanity.
You should be able to do this, without being lost in fixation in between caving to taboo subjects and reality, distorting of the mind and lack of self control.
Use your art as a tool as means to cope. Use your art as an escape to a better place, use your art to destroy pain, use art as means to convey a message.
Use art as how you feel.
Just don’t let history repeat itself.
That’s it.

-Hey everyone! Hry'all?
I'm stopping/passing by to give you guys a message that's quite important not only for me but for anyone too.
Not all the time I will be willing to answer comments, asks or messages.. It's not wrong for me to at least take a break for that, and I promise that then I'll definitely try to answer at least most of them!
Like- I just want you guys to know that I won't always be willing to do that, we won't always have what to say or answer or maybe we won't always be in the mood to do that..
And it's really good sometimes to give that time, because forcing yourself to answer or do something that you are not in the mood for, doesn't lead to anything and doesn't even reach a response made with the heart. So please bear this in mind. Well that goes for anyone reading this! Be kind to yourself, it's important to know the right time and moment for everything, like: time to take a break and time to go back to “work”. If you want to take some time to think and put aside messages or other things you want to do a little bit, no problem! It is very good that you do this, it is very good for your mental health. It doesn't matter if later you're too late to do that or something, as long as you take care of yourself first and then think about it, it's a big step forward <333 (I say this from my experience)
So.. Be patient when I'm not very active around here, I'm a little complicated and I have other responsibilities besides just answering asks, comments or messages. I'm going to do this in my time, and if I take such a long time to answer, don't worry, I'll answer/talk about it at some point.
Tumblr media
Thanks to those who read this far, I hope you understand me and also understand the other people who also want sometimes to take time for this! It's an important message and it's for anyone.
-Hope you have a wonderful day/night💛
