people in the comments of posts about religious trauma will be like "what trauma?? from sitting in a pew once a week??" and i'm like, first of all, many of us did a helluva lot more than just sitting in a pew once a week, m-kay? and second of all, sitting in a pew once a week gave me PLENTY to work through as an adult so kindly shut it.
like i'm sorry that you can't understand that sitting in a pew breaking out in hives but not allowed to leave because "I SEE YOU WALKING OUT!! THE TRUTH IS UNCOMFORTABLE!! THE WEAK WILL LEAVE BECAUSE THEY WON'T LET JESUS INTO THEIR HEARTS!!" and other such bullshit, or being told that you are INHERENTLY sinful and going to HELL to be BURNED for all eternity, or being told that NOTHING you do will ever be good enough, or being told that "YOU ARE LIKE THE LUKEWARM CHURCH THAT JESUS WILL VOMIT OUT" because of something like not volunteering often enough (or, of course, for not donating enough to the church), or hearing sermons about how JUSTIFIED genocide is as long as the people you're killing don't believe in the One True God (but then again don't worry about those True Believers because they shall survive with the Power of The Holy Spirit anyways), or being often reminded that you MUST be willing to BURN IN A FURNACE or be EATEN ALIVE BY LIONS over not being EXTREMELY PUBLIC about your faith, or...
you get my drift. you put a child through all that and i think they're allowed to have some fucking trauma.
so yeah. kindly shove your "it's just church once a week!" up your ass.
#i'm just like#i got more than just the church once a week experience#but frankly#church once a week is plenty of bullshit on its own thank you very fucking much#exvangelical#ex christian#ex fundie#apostate#religious deconstruction#religious trauma

Political post ahead, and given this is a site that is (I would say) dominantly Democratic/left/"woke," if you don't want to read commentary from a Republican/conservative/"traditionalist," I completely understand, but this is your warning.
Just dropped (albeit somewhat accidentally) into a Tumblr community about Animation, and what should I see than the first several posts being about the US election and about saying Fie upon Donald Trump. And while I genuinely feel for people who have legitimate fear over him taking up the US Presidency, I also find myself a little bit baffled to see people think the world is going to spontaneously combust if he takes office again.
Yes, I will have my own share of concern if Kamala Harris takes office, and while I don't expect things to get any better than they were under the Biden administration, I'm also not screaming-crying-throwing up over the idea. It makes me uncomfortable, but only because her ideology differs from mine, and it's difficult to be comfortable with things we don't agree with.
Long story short, I genuinely wish peace upon anyone, on any part of the political spectrum, who is facing extreme anxiety over the outcome of the election. I also hope you take a breath and realize it's not the end of the world. Please do yourself that service. You're worth the peace, baberino 🙏
#Now of course I have some very strong feelings and opinions on this whole situation that are not articulated here#But it's going to help absolutely no one to be confrontational#Myself included#But frankly#Even though his record isn't sparkling#I would rather have a president who isn't part of the political machine (or isn't blatantly involved in it)#US election#Republican#Pro Republican#Pro Conservative#Traditional values#US elections#Politics#US Politics#Election 2024

Incomplete list of unanswered important questions by the end of "Agatha all along" show
Why did Rio wanted Agatha dead?
How was Agatha and Rio relationship like when they were lovers? How long did it last? (doesn't seem like a long time.... and it feels weird to me).
Why did the kiss killed Agatha? For a kiss to kill her, Rio would have needed to try to use her power on Agatha at the same time and Agatha consciously trying to absord it, right? So why would Rio use her powers during the kiss?
After her death, why Agatha doesn't want to face Nicolas!!!!??????? LIKE WHYYYYY??? She had been a loving mother to him, he loved her back, so WHY CAN'T SHE FACE HIM?
Why "The Road by Billy" wanted to punish Agatha during her trial, without any kind of solving???
Why do they say that Rio is THE Green Witch who look over "the cycle of life and death" when she clearly is not balanced and say things like "You had your power, i had my corpses", like if she's LOOKING for more dead bodies and not just there to look over the natural balance of things.
#agatha all along#agatha harkness#agathario#Feel free to add your own unanswered questions!!! :)#The show has a whole is good#BUT FRANKLY#so many contradiction in Rio x Agatha relationships and not enough background to make sense of it#And it doesn't leave me with a good feeling#I'm more neutral and confused and sad#Like all Marvel show I've watched#it's start good and promising and then becomes sad depressing and unsatisfying

Me looking at my TMNT iteration: wouldn't it be so silly to sprinkle in some religion/religious upbringing? Splinter already just like my mom fr why not add a little spice
#cw religon#i hesitate to use the word trauma when describing any of mt experiences#but frankly#i think growing up catholic is kinda traumatizing#and thats what the iteration is about so#perhaps a little bit of religous trauma in there#idk ill see how i feel about it later#/hj#but what if i did

I hope it's not too strange to say, but I think meeting you (the person) made me realise how much of a "blorbo" you (Sammy) are ? To me ? I genuinely haven't realised how strong this feeling was before pffh. I get too excited seeing your reblogs /pos
- @bendyy-blog
It is an honor and a privilege just to be blorbofied. /ref
#I say this somewhat as a joke.#But it's /gen.#It actually delights me that people think of me in such a way that I think about my favorite characters.#I know some fictionkin like to keep some level of separation between them and the fandom because it makes them uncomfortable.#But frankly#As someone who grew up in fandom spaces#It couldn't be farther from the truth for me. I am delighted when people share headcanons or ask me about my source or involve me in fanart#I am an avid fanartist myself and I love the odd weird and unsettling.#So it doesn't put me off at all.#This is actually quite a compliment. I didn't think anyone could ever like me in a blorbo way and frankly I'm delighted by it#Thank you my lord. 🖤#sam talks#sam rambles

*hitting live action batman directors over the head with a roll of fabric*
BRUCE WAYNE IS A CELEBRITY. IF I CAN RECOGNIZE THE ACTOR PLAYING BATMAN WITH THE COWL ON, BRUCE WAYNE'S IDENTITY ISN'T PROTECTED. ALSO, SOME WHITE MESH ON THE EYES WON'T KILL YOU. I PROMISE
#i can't watch live action batman movies because he always looks like a parody of himself#leaving his eyes fully exposed pulls you out of the illusion so compeltley#batman's whole vibe is “HOLY FUCK THAT'S NOT A HUMAN”#and leaving his eyes there just makes him look like a guy in a rubber mask#i don't know#im not a costume designer#so i actually dont know if white mesh around the eyes would in fact kill them#but frankly#even if it would#you could even just edit it in like they did for the x ray in dark knight?????#anyway#give Batman white mesh 2024#Batman#the batman#batman v superman#the dark knight#nolanverse#<- none of you fuckers are blameless

Furious over the person who repeatedly stoked my delusions while tormenting me purposefully (admitted to being) during the lowest point of my life, keeping me completely unable to grasp reality and constantly paranoid during the first six months of my schizophrenia who then refused to even so much as apologize when confronted about it when I was more lucid
#thanks bud#was originally gonna name drop#but frankly#if it hits the fan#she has more clout than i do#so I lose all of my fucking friends#rat in a fucking cage#i guess thats not true#im a very mentally unwell masc woman who doesnt pass#if anything negative comes out about me#things will never be good for me ever again in any space.

For any and all who watched The Electric Company and played Prankster Planet, here's a poll for you:
#pbs kids#pbs kids go#pbs#the electric company#the electric company 2009#prankster planet#the adventures of the electric company on prankster planet#pbs kids flash games#flash games#old internet#I remember playing Reverse-A-Ball before playing Wordsuckeruppernator#But frankly#I like Wordsuckeruppernator better#The mission movies have more variety and the animated Pranksters are all iconic#Not to mention the ending where you get a certificate/play new mini-levels/can read the Lost Guide to Prankster Planet#The ending to Reverse-A-Ball isn't really that big but then again there is that kickass dance sequence#And I prefer Reverse-A-Ball's slower rendition of the Prankster Planet theme song#Electric Company fandom where are y'all at

the only version of the republican primary that i really didn't expect to happen was it getting crowded by a bunch of candidates. this is... good. i thought republicans would be more likely to fall in line with Trump but it looks like they're doing exactly what hyenas can be expected to do: pounced on an opening because they see how weak Trump's campaign has been. DeSantis still won't confirm a run and they got antsy.
this primary is going to be a complete and utter disaster
#but frankly#desantis has a better chance of beating biden than trump does#and he's much more dangerous#so anything that splits the vote if he does run and leads to a 2nd trump nomination is for the best#best in heavy air quotes#best in the loosest most detached sense of the fucking word 😑#just thoughts#clown brigade#the great sham#god i hate american politics

>Join a union
>Hear people constantly complaining that the current union leadership is super corrupt, it's all just the same ten guys making all the decisions in secret and nobody else in the union ever gets to know what's going on
>Go to the monthly union meetings that are completely open to all 1200 union members
>The only attendees are the same ten guys every month, giving detailed reports about everything that's going on
#anyway this is why i'm the way i am about politics and people who advocate against 'participating in the system'#i am on my way to becoming one of the ten guys and frankly? it's fucking exhausting#i chatted with the union president afterwards and he got this haunted look in his eye#and was like 'i'm glad to see you getting involved but remember you can say no. you can always say no.#don't let anyone bully you into doing more than you want to. make time for yourself. YOU CAN SAY NO.'#which was good and much appreciated advice! but also. ominous

PLEASE for the love of the universe read anti-colonial science fiction and fantasy written from marginalized perspectives. Y’all (you know who you are) are killing me. To see people praise books about empire written exclusively by white women and then turn around and say you don’t know who Octavia Butler is or that you haven’t read any NK Jemisin just kills me! I’m not saying you HAVE to enjoy specific books but there is such an obvious pattern here
Some of y’all love marginalized stories but you don’t give a fuck about marginalized creators and characters, and it shows. Like damn
#science fiction#fantasy#xenogenesis#earthseed#the broken earth#frankly I think many of the critiques of my own work are valid#but when I see the same criticisms applied to authors who fundamentally changed the genre#I’m like#hold up

Not to be the biggest buzzkill dour bitch on Earth (IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE) but I detest/loathe/abhor Autumn and Winter weather.
It's a disgusting repugnant malignancy on my mood and psyche.
Everything is dripping and cold and dead and dark and frankly there's nothing good about these four months. It's storms and heartbreak and fuck the holidays too.
There's no rest. There's no hope. GODDDDDDDDDD it literally feels like hell to me.
Maybe if I didn't have to commute by foot or bike in the rain and snow it wouldn't make me so extraordinarily sad but I hate it so fucking much.
Everyone is so mean and bitter and biting and all kindness is just false.
I don't want any of it.
>:(
#jo posts#i know im shouting my anger into a well because this is the introvert hot choccy dark academia haunted library website naptime website#but frankly#it sickens me to my core when the first fall rain comes

Me, actively sobbing over nothing: "listen, I know I sound upset, but I'm not even sure why I'm crying, so it's fine!"
Having ur main emotional response be crying is so embarrassing like ill be trying to explain why im mad or ill try having a serious convo abt smthn that upsets me and ill start crying like a baby and i have to like turn around and go “i am not crying 4 pity or to emotionally manipulate u im crying cuz im a little bitch, give me a sec”
#sometimes its just the only response i have#its probably the years of trauma#and therapy#and associated other shit#but frankly#im tired of anger#so here are some tears instead
