Hey welcome to my blog

lower your expectations immediately

But not all fans are this aware. I keep seeing on tiktok AI created songs by people's favourite idols. Using basically their voice to create the cover they want to hear.

Not that it sounds like them 100%. For me I can easily discern it's not that artist singing it actually but if so what's the point.

And maybe it won't take the job from that said idol, but I can easily imagine some lectors and audio actors loosing their jobs cause well now AI can do it. And I actually hate it.

Oh, you think you're safe now?

Nothing can deliver you from these paws!

For every person who likes or reblogs this post today, I will boop you.

You cannot stop me.

Only prolong your fate.

Mad with boop power! I felt inspired.

Well, we’ve gotten off to a real fine start here. I’m going to recess now until this new matter can be explained. So that we might then begin to move in a forward direction.

i just don't think anyone understands how much i love this scene, these episodes.

scully's held in contempt of congress because she refuses to answer their questions about mulder. she knows that isn't what's important, she tries to tell them about the conspiracy of men. she tries to move their focus to the pouch and what they already know. they're having none of it, but neither is she. scully stands her ground. she listens to her instincts but more importantly she follows mulder's instincts.

she has to be terrified, nothing to do really except worry about mulder. and he shows up right in time. the way she whips around to look at him, to go to him. they don't hug a lot but they both go for it. he quips about putting both his arms around her and she has no idea what he's talking about. her relief is so intense. the way she looks at him, says his name. his smile as he rests his chin on her shoulder. how much she needs to lift her chin to hug him, to get close enough to him. they're not worried about anything but putting their hands on the other. we can't really see how she's squeezing but you can tell from her shoulders. we can see the way he pulls her in, rubs her back comfortingly. a comfort she desperately needs, a comfort he falls into and happily supplies. she hesitates pulling back. waiting until he's leaned back to move away herself.

This might suck to hear, but if you're a people pleaser that is motivated by praise and avoids disagreements, you are easy to manipulate.

When I was in therapy after surviving years of domestic violence, my therapist had to tell me that my personality was primed for abuse and we needed to work on that so I would be better equipped to see the red flags and respond appropriately in the future.

I'm still working on this, and it's been 8 years. If you tell someone how you want to be treated, what behaviors you don't tolerate in your life, what you're looking for in that relationship, and they react negatively, don't compromise yourself. Just move on.

This one's for all the praise-kink girlies: differentiate, self-actualize, stay sexy

This resonated with more people than I thought, so here are some phrases to practice when you would normally default to people pleasing:

Just remember, your thoughts, feelings, and opinions are what make you unique, and you can change your mind later, so don't be afraid to say them out loud. Work through things. Don't dodge them.

the only thing that bothers me about the booping is that I can see the paw pads which makes me feel like I'm backhanding peoples' blogs

Me when I boop you

reblog only if you’ve received less than 1000 boops! we can all get each other to “max”

@ every blog on april 1st GET BOOPED

and it was just the third episode guys...

i hate when the teacher’s like “write about a bad time in your life” like i ain’t tryna get a social worker up my ass, thanks tho fam

This ain’t no joke I had to write a essay about what your scared of so I did it (I was scared of growing up and where my life was going) it was great got a 100 but then I got sent to councilors office and was sent to therapy cause they thought I was suicidal and on the verge of breaking…Apparently they ment like spiders or some shit…

Also like, not everyone finds that at all useful or cathartic.

“Write about some difficulty you’ve experienced personally.” “Aight fam let me just break down into tears and skip the rest of my classes.”

Yes! I had a psych professor ask us to discuss outloud the hardest thing that ever happened to us literally two days ago and I said “you realize the position you’re putting us in? I feel obligated to lie to not only save my peers the awkwardness but also because I will find no relief in answering honestly but rather anxiety. The hardest thing in my life is having people repeatedly tell me I should find some sort of catharsis in reliving my trauma so someone else can feel pity for me!”

The whole class backed me up because they didn’t want to either! Those kind of exercises are only helpful for people who don’t have any real past/current issues– which is no one btw.

On par with this are those fucking self-assessments where they want to to be optimistic and positive about the future. You’re sitting there drowning in college stress and anxiety so bad you can’t look another human in the eye, fighting depression so that you can eventually achieve a piece of paper that might get you a better job if the economy doesn’t tank itself (guess what, it did), and the most optimistic thing you can think of is that the class ends in 20 minutes.

OH! I KNOW THE ANSWER TO THIS!

There’s a WIRED article that explains the history behind this practice. 

Basically, this guy named Jeffrey Mitchell had a traumatic experience, then after months of PTSD, he told a confidant about the event that traumatized him. Retelling the event to a confidant was so cathartic for Mitchell that his PTSD went away after. He did a bunch of research to see if his personal experience of catharsis and relief could be replicated in other people suffering from PTSD. Years later he published a paper proposing a formalized psychiatric treatment revolving around this idea that expressing a traumatic experience helps relieve it. The paper was so influential that the whole psychiatric community adopted “critical incident stress debriefing” (CISD) as a standard treatment for PTSD.

Unfortunately … it’s bullshit.

Not only does the CISD treatment program Mitchell came up with not help the majority of patients who try it, but it actually makes PTSD worse in the majority of patients who try it.

The WIRED article explains why:

Basically, Mitchell waited until he had some emotional distance before trying to recall the memory, and he had full control of the situation. It was fully his decision. Nobody was pressuring him to talk about it. So he felt safe. Thinking about the memory from a place of safety allowed his brain to re-contextualize the memory as harmless.

Conversely, pressuring a patient to recall a traumatic memory, particularly when it’s still fresh in their minds, makes the patient feel very unsafe. Recalling a bad memory in this unsafe context only serves to re-traumatize the patient.

basically, there’s a big damn difference between choosing to confide in someone you trust and being pressured to make a public spectacle of your trauma

THIS JUST IN: Forced Public Recalling of Trauma Not As Helpful As Voluntarily Processing Trauma In A Safe Space
