💙WELCOME🧡

Hello! Name’s Sun [they/them | 23+] 🤙

I draw my own characters and make comics, all related to (if not stated otherwise) my universe/story Black Orbit!

🌌 WHAT’S BLACK ORBIT, YOU ASK?

It’s a bio-punk story about gangs, parasites, gods and Bad Personal Choices, following the story of Keith Sun, gang leader of 🔷Black Orbit who disappeared after being ambushed by their rival gang, 🔺Crimson Maw, only to return a year later with a powerful parasite - infected by God themself.

Black Orbit takes place in the massive metropolis 🌞SUNJIN - Which consists of 7 regions: 🔷Corr - 🌄Kaesu - 💊Futou - 🏭Javrune - 🔺Danshui - 💧Veisem - 💜Devi [District]

Parasites in this universe are Kin of Kqo’twec [pronounced quo-tech) who is also known as ✨The Parasite God. Parasite’s are widespread and been a part of life for many centuries. However, modern advancements have found a way to commercialize parasites, disturbing the balance of host/parasite relationships.

Read my short comic 🌺Lasting Bonds on WEBTOON to get insight into Kqo’twec and what exactly parasites are.

OR

visit my website https://black-orbit.com/ where you can find all my B.O. comic projects, (main) character introductions and story summary!

Worth mentioning Black Orbit contains Explicit Language, Violence, Dark/Sensitive & Suggestive Themes. I’d give it a Mature Rating (17+) I won’t get around to making the comic for the main story any time soon, but shorter comic projects more focused on characters can still have these themes, so be mindful of that!

My boyfriend edited this one picture of a seal with huge wet eyes so that it had a super tiny head and it was so funny that several days later it’s all I can think about when my brain isn’t preoccupied

“Get a rat and put it in a cage and give it two water bottles. One is just water, and one is water laced with either heroin or cocaine. If you do that, the rat will almost always prefer the drugged water and almost always kill itself very quickly, right, within a couple of weeks. So there you go. It’s our theory of addiction. Bruce comes along in the ’70s and said, “Well, hang on a minute. We’re putting the rat in an empty cage. It’s got nothing to do. Let’s try this a little bit differently.” So Bruce built Rat Park, and Rat Park is like heaven for rats. Everything your rat about town could want, it’s got in Rat Park. It’s got lovely food. It’s got sex. It’s got loads of other rats to be friends with. It’s got loads of colored balls. Everything your rat could want. And they’ve got both the water bottles. They’ve got the drugged water and the normal water. But here’s the fascinating thing. In Rat Park, they don’t like the drugged water. They hardly use any of it. None of them ever overdose. None of them ever use in a way that looks like compulsion or addiction. There’s a really interesting human example I’ll tell you about in a minute, but what Bruce says is that shows that both the right-wing and left-wing theories of addiction are wrong. So the right-wing theory is it’s a moral failing, you’re a hedonist, you party too hard. The left-wing theory is it takes you over, your brain is hijacked. Bruce says it’s not your morality, it’s not your brain; it’s your cage. Addiction is largely an adaptation to your environment. […] We’ve created a society where significant numbers of our fellow citizens cannot bear to be present in their lives without being drugged, right? We’ve created a hyperconsumerist, hyperindividualist, isolated world that is, for a lot of people, much more like that first cage than it is like the bonded, connected cages that we need. The opposite of addiction is not sobriety. The opposite of addiction is connection. And our whole society, the engine of our society, is geared towards making us connect with things. If you are not a good consumer capitalist citizen, if you’re spending your time bonding with the people around you and not buying stuff—in fact, we are trained from a very young age to focus our hopes and our dreams and our ambitions on things we can buy and consume. And drug addiction is really a subset of that.”

"being distressed about an evil thought is what shows you're a good person" = bad, unhelpful, is not at all conducive to OCD recovery

"there's no such thing as a good or bad thought", "your thoughts do not define your morality", etc = good, helpful, acknowledges the fact that thoughtcrime isn't real

remember kids, implying that distress is what makes you a good person is NOT a good way to encourage people to build a life where they are able to learn to live alongside intrusive thoughts

For me, I feel like pointing out the significance of distress over intrusive thoughts is helpful up to a point, when it's done in a very specific way that doesn't reinforce the idea of the thoughts themselves being evil. The useful idea to me is, "These thoughts distress you, which shows that you are not likely to act on them. They are not a serious plan you are making or even an impulse born out of a real desire that you might 'give into' in a moment of weakness." This in combination with "Your thoughts do not define your morality," makes distress at intrusive thoughts into a cue that you can recognize as a good sign and then stop being distressed.

"Feeling distressed about evil thoughts proves you are a good person," is not that, and, like OP is getting at, is actually extremely unhelpful because it requires you to keep feeling distressed forever in order to maintain your "good person" status.
