kindly repeat after me:
- Assault, in any form, is gross and wrong.
- Even if you had once perceived someone to be respectable, it is important to acknowledge or call out vile and/or toxic behavior.
- The victim is not to blame. No means no. It does not mean “try harder” or “maybe”. No means no.
- Supporting someone even after hearing about toxic and morally evil things that person has done is wrong. You know what they did was wrong. Accept that, and move on. There are plenty of unproblematic people out there. Don’t try to glorify someone and turn them into something they are clearly not.
- ASSAULT IS WRONG. WHATEVER GENDER YOU ARE, WHATEVER YOU BELIEVE IN, HOWEVER FAMOUS YOU ARE, IT’S WRONG. IT’S AN EXPRESSION OF EXCESSIVE POWER MEANT TO BELITTLE AND TRAUMATIZE A VICTIM. DO NOT DEFEND ASSAULT.

Here's to the people who...
… Ask “can I kiss you?” or lean in halfway and then wait for you to close the gap.
… Tap the item of clothing and check to see if you’re okay removing it.
… Respect your boundaries *without* pointing out how “nice” and “patient” they’re being and how very hard they’re struggling to be okay with it.
… Surprise you with kisses *only after* you’ve told them how much you enjoy getting surprise kisses from them.
… Remember where you don’t like to be touched.
… Appreciate your body as it is and when it changes.
… Communicate before, during, and after intimacy.
Here’s to the people who make consent a natural part of relationships, as it should be.

Isn’t it funny, how we try so desperately for people that we want to claim as our own. We look our best for them, make the best jokes, invest all of our time into them, so maybe, just maybe, they’ll give us a chance. We spend weeks, even months, even years, trying to get their attention and love. We worry constantly that someone else is giving them more and better. We hope that we’re the ones they’re thinking about at night. Then two things could happen. They either break your heart, or fall in love with you. You could sob and scream and curse yourself for not being good enough for them. You could be bitter for so long wondering why you did so much for them. Or, they will notice all you’ve done. You’ll get what you wanted. But time will pass and you’ll get comfortable. Start to forget why you tried so hard and you’ll start to try less because humans are naturally lazy, and why try when you already have what you want? Isn’t it so sad, that we try so hard, just to one day take it all for granted.

people say “if you don’t lower your standards, you’re gonna end up spending your whole life alone!” like being a healthy, happy, financially independent single adult is actually worse than being stuck in an abusive and/or emotionally unfulfilling relationship with someone who isn’t willing/able to meet your needs. like no offense, but I think I’m gonna choose to be happy rather than throwing myself into a relationship just for the sake of being in a relationship.

please remember that in a healthy, adult relationship (romantic or not), you should be able to talk about things that are bothering you. if you are bottling up your emotions and holding it against someone when you haven’t told them what is wrong, you’re not engaging in healthy behaviour. but also, if your friend/significant other makes you feel as though you can’t talk about what bothers you- i.e. has made you feel guilty/gotten extraordinarily angry when things were brought up in the past- they are not engaging in healthy behaviour.

There’s nothing quite as lonely and heartbreaking as Harry using “we” and “we’re” throughout Two Ghosts but then switching to “I’m” for the first and only time on the very last line of the song.

writing something new soon? i'd love that!!
I am honestly always writing, I just never post any of it.. I don't want to post something that won't be enjoyed, so unless someone requests something, i'm sorry but no, there won't be any new writing! (which is probably for the best, considering I don't love my own writing)
