holding my boob for emotional support

well

so like. obviously it's an immensely tragic route to take but sometimes it's just so satisfying for a story to go "there's no happy ending this time. resistance is futile in this scenario. the 'good guys' can't win. this is a pointless last stand. so for their final act, our beloved characters are going to rock the antagonist's shit so fucking hard it makes you stare at a wall struggling to process what just happened and how you feel about it for hours afterwards."

i simply think that sometimes it's the best possible narrative decision to allow characters to become supernovas, imploding on themselves but taking as much with them as possible. "you can't save anyone" "maybe not, but i can hurt you". fuck yes. if you can't beat them, tear them apart.

Don't allow others to consume you. If they don't call, go to sleep. If they don't message you, put away your phone & have a good day. If they are distant and refuse to tell you what's wrong, go home and do something fun. You live for yourself first. They are secondary.

girl you're not talking about killing people anymore are you ok

Who is your main priority?

YOU.

Every time you are waiting for a text message or somebody to show up in a specific way, your focus is outwards.

Whenever you are stressed about not being in a relationship or not having enough money - you are disrespecting yourself.

The main focus should always be on you, not external circumstances.

When you are paying attention to the outside world or talking about how life should be different, you are stating you are powerless. And that is not true.

Relax. Focus on yourself. How do you feel in this moment? Stressed. Hopeless. Frustrated.

How can you change it? What will make you feel confident? What can help you feel better?

Meditate. Take a walk. Exercise. Play with your pet. Read a book. Write. Clean your house. Declutter your closet. Organize your working space. Cook. Dance. Do breathwork. Play with makeup. Those are my preferences. What are yours?

What does make you feel stable? What makes you playful? What makes you feel unbothered?

we live in a society where ugly men are allowed to treat beautiful women any kind of way and i think thats wrong. make it illegal

Inventing Anna: Season 1 Episode 4

Having a child is a long term commitment to a heavy, heavy responsibility which demands energy, attention, and time.

To have a child is to bring an entire person into the world. This person can not consent to this. This person is inherently vulnerable, hardwired to depend on you, and must be taught the skills neccessary to one day care for themself.

When you have a child, that child's well being is entirely on you. It's your job to keep them safe, to keep them fed, cloathed, and happy. It's your job to make sure they feel loved.

When you choose to have a child, you are signing up to spend years and years of resources on that child. That is your choice. The child was not alive and could not agree to your decision to drag them out of the void of nonexistence. The child was not asked if they wanted to experience an entire lifetime of conciousness, and all of the potential suffering and agony that comes with that.

That decision is entirely that of the parent who has made the choice to have a child.

You are not "granting the gift of life." You are not doing this hypothetical child a favor by having them. You are doing this for you, because you wanted to be a parent. You wanted to have the experience of raising a child.

This means that if you have a child, you owe that child. You owe them time, and love, and safety, and care. You asked for this, it is now your responsibly to follow through.

Children are not a toy. They aren't a fancy new car for you to parade to your friends. They aren't a fashion accessory for you to put on the shelf when you lose interest. They aren't a mini you. They aren't a magic cure-all to your trauma, and they aren't there to fill some void in your chest.

They are a vulnerable person who is easily abused and neglected and who will be at your mercy throughout much of their development period.

A parent owes their child. Failing to follow through with the responsibility they signed up for is a failing on the parent's part. Making the child feel guilty for the crime of existing is the fault of the parent. A child is never a burden.

Abusive and neglectful parents are failures as parents. They could not do the bare basics of what the job entails and then they blame the child for a crime that the parents themselves committed.

Physical contact with loved ones is a necessary ingredient for a healthy mind and I’m 100% serious about that

This feels like the start to a horror movie and I love it

Me rn:

Someday you will look back at all the progress you’ve made and be so glad you didn’t give up when you felt like that was your only option.

I saw a similar thing in a screenshot on Reddit the other day.

All of this delights me to no end.

…I’m actually speechless.

I wasn’t looking for any information about railroads and now I’m left with that + knowledge about spaceships, Roman chariots and one (1) unexpected but welcome joke.

I am now trying to figure out how to share this (the age-appropriate parts) with my middle school history students. What a great chain of facts!

lolita fashion (NOT to be confused with loli/lolita cp) is so cute I just wish it were named something else

lmao then call it something else because there’s a reason it’s called lolita and they aren’t at all using it because of cute fashion.

The name Lolita has nothing to do with pedophillia. It was chosen by Japanese designers in the 70’s because it sounded old fashion and European so it fit the style. Due to a language barrier they did not know what connotations it had outside of Japan

The Lolita fashion community is very anti pedophillia, please do not try to say that we are fetishists for using the terminology our community has used since the 70s it is not our fault

Lolita fashion was intended to be intentionally childish, but not because it would be sexual to pedophiles. The original lolita fashion movement was a symbol of rebellion, of girls reclaiming their sexuality from a society that told them to dress formally at all times to find a husband.

These girls created fashion based around a little girl’s idea of fancy. It wasn’t good looking to men, but the women who wore it loved it, and that was the entire point.

Lolita fashion is basically the Flapper movement of Japan (which, for those who don’t know, was also a movement of young women defying traditional gender roles by dressing in ways they found fun instead of in ways that were deemed appropriate).
