IAN GALLAGHER + his journey with bipolar disorder
ā°āā¤ āAt times, being bipolar can be an all-consuming challenge, requiring a lot of stamina and even more courage, so if youāre living with this illness and functioning at all, itās something to be proud of, not ashamed of." - Carrie Fisher
#happy world bipolar day to all my bp babies#(more thoughts at the end of the tags)#shameless#shamelessnet#shamelessedit#ian gallagher#cameron monaghan#*macygifs#bipolar disorder#hello pals how are we doin#i made this gif set in july of 2023 and never posted it because 1) i was terrified to share it and potentially see Bad Takes in the tags#and 2) because my hyperfixation was waning. and while both of those things are still mostly true (the fixation comes and goes)#i feel like it's really important to share as ian's bipolar storyline was not only so vital to his character it was a bit of representation#that isn't often given to the disorder and those (like myself) who live with it every single day#world bipolar day is a day where we can both celebrate ourselves and our resilience and also raise awareness of the reality of the disorder#which is both terrifying and beautiful at its core. this disease is not a death sentence or a sentence to an unfulfilled and miserable life#while there are challenges galore when it comes to balancing life with this disorder it IS possible to live a full and productive life#and i think it's really important to have representation of that in media - and while shameless dropped the ball on a LOT of storylines#over the years THIS is the one they really fucking nailed and i am incredibly grateful#i first started watching shameless while in the midst of a major depressive episode and i was later (finally) diagnosed during an extended#hypo/manic episode - this show and ian's storyline got me through so much and made me feel so seen and validated in my struggles#world bipolar day is also vincent van gogh's birthday (happy birthday buddy) who was posthumously diagnosed with bipolar disorder#and who experienced both depressive and hypo/manic episodes during his lifetime (and was regularly institutionalized)#it takes a lot of help and support to keep us going. it takes the support of our family and friends and *most* of all#it takes patience and kindness and understanding - which is so so so easy to give if you are willing to love and listen#so please. be willing. listen to our stories. be patient with us. show us love without conditions. support us in any way you can.#we are worth it#i promise#anyway. that's really all i wanted to say. happy world bipolar day to those who celebrate (me) and may all of us living with this disorder#go on to live happy fulfilling beautiful magical lives

The first day of autumn is upon us, and I'm already being bombarded with Christmas. I don't get it, and I don't like it. Christmas used to be one very, very special day of the year that we celebrated for one month of the year. That made it magical. It made it a winter wonderland filled with kindness and surprises and joy. It brought out the best in people. It brought people together. Now, it's gotten to the point that by the time Christmas is actually here, I'm so tired of seeing ads and movies and so many other forms of commercial exploitation of the holiday, that I'm sick of the idea of Christmas. I can't wait for it to be over so the world can go back to normal, and I can stop seeing things that I'm supposed to want to buy. It's made it annoying, and it's diminishing the glory and beauty of the holiday. Why don't we have Halloween movies and celebrations? More importantly, why don't we have Thanksgiving celebrations? That's a holiday that reminds us to be thankful for what we have and who we have in our lives. It reminds us of the gifts that have been bestowed upon us, and it brings families together. I think that's much more important than buying gifts. With the creation of Black Friday, people rush through Thanksgiving dinner to get away from their families to get to the store to buy, buy, buy. They can't wait to leave their families and loved ones behind to get to the sale. It's appalling. They scratch and claw at each other, shoving people aside to get things. Things are not more important than being thankful. Not even close. I wish that we could go back to celebrating Halloween in October, Thanksgiving in November, and then celebrating Christmas in December. That way, we wouldn't lose sight of what is important, and we can revel in the joy and celebrate each holiday to the fullest. The Christmas inudation used to start right before Halloween. Now, it's already started one month earlier in September. Why have Christmas at all if we're going to devalue it? Why not just have sales and unrealistic movies all year long? Oh wait, they do that already. It's ridiculous. We need to get back to celebrating Christmas in December only. And we can have a week of Christmas in July to restock the food for the needy. No matter what we do, we need to celebrate Thanksgiving to its fullest. We need to remember why we're thankful and then thank those who have made us thankful. We need to give back to the world during that time and focus on what's truly important in this world. I think that would be love, kindness, compassion, understanding, acceptance, and people. What do you think?
#Christmas#In September#really#Thanksgiving#Halloween#celebrate#family#thankful#grateful#black Friday sucks#refocus#what is really important#love#kindness#people#caring#compassion#acceptance#happiness#thank you#sharing#joy#holidays#Christmas in December only#Thanksgiving in November#Halloween in October#don't diminish the beauty#don't forget what's important#brotherhood#peace on earth

Hey not to make a political post but does it ever feel like we can just never win and the suffering will be forever and we're always going to have to fight with moments of peace being fleeting and not worth looking forward to
#behind the tent#neg#current events#the worst man alive got shot and lived#if he DOES die he will be martyred . we will be considered a violent threat . the right will revolt#if he DOESNT die he will martyr himself as a survivor . we will be branded as violent and worth stamping out . we're going to be killed#moments of celebration do not last#two innocent people died as a result#and we couldnt even fucking kill trump immediately#and joe biden aint much better!!!#and halfway across the globe innocent families are being ripped apart in the name of an ethnostate and by god Im not letting myself give up-#-hope for them . Im not allowed to feel hopeless for them .#but fuck if the knowledge in my mind every waking day doesnt add to it#and neither of our politicians care!!! and of course the entire fucking world ends up dictated by the whims of the US anyways so the fact#they dont care is crucially fucking important!!#And my right to live and exist in this country will probably be wiped away entirely in a couple of years when I just barely got to taste it#there's a chance I could be hatecrimed next time I walk out the door#And maybe its the ahedonia since childhood speaking too but I'm starting to not see the point !!!!! what is the point !!!!#the fact there ARE people who care about me is the only fucking reason I'm not gonna end it all tomorrow! I swear to god!#And at this point I am waiting for this to finally fucking affect me personally so I can have an excuse to fucking feel that way!#I feel so fucking selfish for being so suicidal when I've been one of the lucky ones but god its not gonna get better is it?#everyone encourages radicalization and change . demands it . begs for it . but it hasnt happened! it will Never happen!#my only god damn choice is to let it lead to despair!#suicidal ideation cw#God I wish I had access to hard drugs

Since you like to say youāre always right, tell us what is next. You say you donāt make predictions, but you actually do, even if you donāt call them that.
Ok so Iām absolutely not always right. There have been some really big things Iāve been wrong about and a lot of small things too. And what I learned from that is to keep an open mind, and when Iām wrong about something, to figure out why I got it wrong and shift my world view in some ways to try to understand and guess better the next time. But itās not even really about being able to guess. Itās about understanding when things happen. It is fun to be right on a guess though, when that happens.
The biggest thing Iāve learned, and luckily I learned it pretty early on in my time in this space, is that trying to figure out the timing something big will happen is absolutely a fools errand. And another thing to avoid is trying to come up with the exact, specific way Taylor (or others in her cinematic universe) will do something to get a point across. Like I can predict she will try to get a point across (set up a timeline, create a narrative, shore up a brand point) but I cannot predict exactly how or when sheāll do it. I also can predict sheāll set something up but then she never does. Thatās because I think of lots of options. Some happen, some donāt. So this is the kind of thing Iām often wrong about. But I see them and always try to present them as options, not predictions. And if one of the options I think of happens, I have already spent time thinking about it, so it already makes sense to me.
I donāt know whatās next. She could drop TS11 at midnight. She could break up with Travis tomorrow, or announce her engagement next week. But I do not think any of those things is likely.
So hereās the closest thing youāll ever get to me making a specific, timed prediction, because to me it seems quite clear:
What I do think is likely is that her jet will go to KC, ā
sheāll go to the game on Sundayā
, and her jet will then leave KC sometime between next Tuesdayā
and next Thursday. Why? Because itās a home game, and she likes to go to home games and get the exposure and publicity that comes with that. She is working really hard at becoming an icon in KC, seem like her relationship is very serious for those who want to believe itās serious, and she wants to shore up that relationship by spending time with him, his family, and his friends (also KC icons - the Mahomes mostly.)ā
All of this is so important to the story sheās creating. However, she wonāt stay long ā
because thatās been her pattern. She also seems to be establishing that she also has her own busy, fabulous lifeā
(sheās bejeweled and he lets her beā
) and when heās busy with his football week (generally Tuesday-Sunday) he doesnāt have much time for her and she has her own life.ā
This gives her the opposite option of the relationship being very serious. In other words it gives her an easy out for it to end. And Wednesday is her birthday. So sheāll either stay till Tuesday ā
and weāll see or hear about birthday celebrations Sunday night/Monday, ā
then sheāll head out for further birthday celebrations with her other friends and familyā
, or her jet will stay through her birthday, solidifying the seriousness of the relationship. But she will leave KC.ā
And then sheāll probably go to the game on Dec 17 in Bostonā
. Why? Because it is a short hop from NYC, she has a huge fanbase thereā
and can expand it and shore it up, the patriots are bad so a win is likelyā
, but they are a very popular team, so viewership (publicity) will be highā
. After that? Well sheās likely to spend more time in NYCā
/Nashville. Then she will probably go to the Christmas Day game in KCā
. This is a huge opportunity to ātake the relationship to the next levelā by spending the holidays together ā
, something the public absolutely loves to see and will further fuel the āengaged by the end of the year, after the Super Bowl at the latestā fire. Hopefully weāll get something reputation-related for new yearsā, so the extra publicity will help with that. Additionally all of this corresponds with the Eras film being released to streaming, another huge money making opportunity for her, and her attendance is an ad for the film.
After the new year, there will be some huge games with high viewership. They will be playing for playoff seeding. Then they almost assuredly will be in the playoffsā
. She will go to those gamesā
, which have even higher viewership, and will give her more free marketing for reputation and eras movie and anything else we donāt know about. After that, it will depend on how deep they go into the playoffs. They are no longer favored to be in the Super Bowl, but it is still a strong possibilityā
. We all now know she can fly across the world after a concert to attend an event (she flew to the US during her time in SA, planned to a second time but couldnāt because of the events in Rio, and flew to London for 24 hrs for bey). The precedent has been set for her to fly from Tokyo to Las Vegas for the Super Bowl. ā
There is no bigger stage than the Super Bowl (outside of the World Cup final, if youāre thinking internationally.) The free marketing potential there is something that would be very hard for her to pass up. And if Travis isnāt playing, Jasonās team might be, and they can go together to support him. Imagine the potential of travlor in a suite together with mama and papa kelce cheering on a retiring Jasonāā
. And even if neither of them are in the game, they could still all go together and stand in a suite as a big happy family in front of an audience of 115 million Americans. Why wouldnāt she do this?ā
Will all that happen for sure? Of course not. But you can see the logic, right? Will there be other things that happen that I havenāt thought of? Most likely.ā
I donāt actually have a crystal ball. What kinds of things could derail this? Well thereās always the possibility of the black swan, but a more likely scenario is they lose again against a team they should beatā
and/or Travis has another bad gameā
. There is a real danger of people turning on her as a distraction ā
and I think they have their fingers on the pulse of this very closely. As long as KC keeps winning, and thereās a good chance they will win the rest of their games, all will be smoothāā
.
Also I am not even thinking beyond February. I have one interesting thought about it, but itās just too speculative to even mention here. But as we move through the next two months, Iāll get clues to be able to guess at what will happen after she goes back on tour after the Super Bowlā
. And if Iām wrong about all of this, which I may very well be because she is notoriously unpredictable sometimes, I will simply take it as a learning opportunity to understand her better.ā
#Iām editing the tags as time goes on to note what I got right and how and adding checks and can writhing the post#People mag confirmed they celebrated her bday Monday in KC and heās busy and sheās busy and she will have a party w/o him in nyc#and were sure to mentioned he is focused on football#and heās gotten some criticism for dropping passes and that flop#he had a bad game vs patriots and hasnāt had a good game in weeks#sheās still doing fine other than the Mahomes continuing ick#Travis essentially confirmed she went to Gillette. decide of her strong fanbase. bad team means cheap tix for swifties to take over#donāt know for sure but looks like she wants everyone to think sheās in KC for the week#a big football analyst tweeted sheās a distraction after the Christmas loss#they didnāt win the rest of their games and they struggled at the end of the season there and Travis struggled but#he miraculously hit his act together in time to help lead his team to the Super Bowl cementing his place as the elite TE and saved the day#and happiness is everywhere because the goal (SB and adorable power couple of the year) was met#next Grammys and Super Bowl for her and him going to shows in Australia Iām guessing#got the kelce family plus Taylor importance right but didnāt mention the possibility of Jason not in SB but in suite with tay.#obvious but sonce I didn mt mention it I gave myself a partial green check#one thing I didnāt know was about TTPD instead of a new re-recording#we already got our People article that he is looking forward to joining her on tour in Europe

and ANOTHER thing āsorry Iām almost doneāthe creation of that lust filled space also creates such an unempowered state for Kate to be in. there isnāt anything she can really do except sort of stand there doe-eyed and take it in. Also thatās so dark!
#sorry I keep using that word but!#contrast it with pride and prejudice#itās funny and powerful that Darcy proposes like āI WISH I didnāt love you or find you beautiful for several logical reasons but I DOā#marry me plsā#(because it is fun to see a character overcome almost against their will)#but Lizzyās response is so important and so in the best sense of the word admirable#because she ISNāt impressed!!!!!#and it isnāt the girlboss meanness that she is so often celebrated for!#which is the worldās version of empowerment for women#itās just that she is like āthis is not my problem!!!!!!! that you are so in love with me but disgusted by my family/circumstancesā#so sheās kind of like ādonāt bring this to ME.ā#and thatās so iconic and compelling and forces Darcy to stop#because itās so valid and so real person of her!!!!!!#because yeah! a man feeling uncomfortable about his feelings for a woman#is not that womanās problem!!!! and even though some of us would be so affected by it#(tbh i would have been so flattered that he liked me and was struggling against it I might not have yelled at him)#itās so iconic that she DOES!#the real person of it!!!!!! the negotiation of life!!!!!!!!!!#Darcyās problem is he has been wrestling in his head and speaking to no one#and Lizzy forcibly reminds him that she is a person with feelings and it is actually not his place for him to be listing out at this moment#all the objections he has had to the idea of marrying her#not hers to know!!!!!!!#and heās like āoh wow thatās so trueā and course corrects#all without being sort of this pandering sentimental softie so often presented on the OTHER side#he is mad at her! heās bitter! but his bitterness soon takes a proper direction (as he says at the end)

Re: that last ask well now I wanna hear about Peter!! (Please š„ŗ)
Ah yes, peter, sweet sweet boy.
peter is so special and sweet and I do have many thoughts about him.
peter loves cuddles. this is probably not surprising, but he indeed loves to snuggle up and nuzzle into someoneās neck and hold their hands. lucky for him he has this group of super touchy-feely guys to give him all the snuggles he wants. He just loves his friends so much.
Peter and mike end up getting really close. I think that after The Devil and Peter Tork, pete starts getting some really bad nightmares, about hell, but also ones that feature things like the other monkees forgetting about him or not knowing heās there or even ones where theyāre not real and this gets him real deep (poor thing). I feel like as a kid he had a hard time holding onto friends (this is a little bit personal, apologies), and was picked on a lot for being ādifferentā and āsoftā and it gets to him (like in the wild monkees when the girl calls him a sissy and he gets particularly upset) and the idea that this group of people who love him and care for him arenāt really real can be a lot.
He often starts screaming or crying in his sleep and Mike starts to wake up and go over to his bed to stay with him and calm him down. Davy also sometimes wakes up (micky is a VERY deep sleeper, but he has woken up before and come over to help but he konked out pretty quickly) Usually itās just peter and Mike and Mike trying to calm peter down, just holding him close and rubbing his back and hair and letting peter know heās there and that heās real. Mike doesnāt feel really good at talking, especially not at two in the morning, so that is usually the most he can do, and it does help peter, who loves pressure and soft snuggles. Mike also sometimes sings to him, quietly as to not wake up the others, and they do talk a bit, mike trying to get peter to tell him what the dreams were about but theyāre sometimes too confusing or too much for peter, and peter canāt always talk at all afterwards, so if mike talks to him it tends to be soothing things in a soft voice or asking peter if he wants to be sung to.
despite mikeās help, pete has a very hard time getting enough sleep and sleeping through the night so sometimes mike has him take a lot of shorter naps during the day (usually downstairs with the rest of the group) but peter has a hard time going to bed at night, afraid of what nightmares heās going to have, so he starts having some terrible panic attacks about going to bed. Mike starts just sleeping in peterās bed every night (eventually they all just sleep in the same bed because what the hell, theyāre snuggly, but not at first). But peter has a lot of trouble with bedtime for a while, and micky one night comes up with an idea that this is NOT ābedtimeā! No no no! this is PILLOW time, and pillow time is special and different! and tells him all these stories about it and it makes peter laugh and gets him to be able to go to sleep for a while, safe with Mike, though he still tends to wake up from nightmares.
this is another self-projection thing, but during this time when peter is having terrible nightmares he starts having problems with bedwetting. He canāt help it, but it freaks him out even more. It starts almost right away and Mike also starts helping him through it, late at night getting poor, crying peter into the bathroom and putting on a shower for him. Mike brings his guitar in and plays some things sitting against the bathroom door so that peter knows heās there. then i guess they fall asleep in mikeās bed and mike deals with the sheets in the morning and they just donāt tell the other guys because peterās embarrassed about it. peter does NOT get scolded about it at all, thatās a must for me, just because iāve had problems with that due to nightmares and waking up to someone yelling at you for being disgusting is not a helpful thing. So peter is definitely assured heās not disgusting and itās not his fault and he is treated like a person about it. I also think mike knows how to deal with it, assumedly having taken care of younger siblings (see when he talks about his family in Monkee Mother) so he is prepared to help peter out and doesnāt really sweat it. Yeah, thatās just a personal segment of this all.
okay so to me tv show-peter is autistic. real life peter tork was diagnosed with autism later in his life, but peter the character shows a lot of autistic traits in my opinion so thatās gonna factor into a lot of these next ideas.
he probably needs help with a lot of things, stuff like cutting his nails or remembering to brush his teeth (micky also has trouble with both of those and mike has a system now where they all brush their teeth at the same time and is usually good at figuring out when he needs to throw a nail clipper at micky as heās been scratched multiple times during werewolf impressions and similar) but peter gets the help he needs because the boys all help him out!
(another little self-projecting thing) peter has trouble not spilling glasses of water so he has to be reminded a lot to use two hands when holding a glass. (this will forever be my struggle lol)
heās also prone to meltdowns if he gets overstimulated. (itās the sixties so autism is not really understood so i think peter is definitely not diagnosed and he doesnāt really know what these meltdowns are) Sometimes grocery stores are a lot for him and the other boys have to frantically figure out how to calm him down. if it happens at the grocery store usually one of them will go with peter to go sit in the car (a lot of times itās mike, because grocery stores are also very overstimulating for him. dont tell mike, but heās also autistic haha. but sometimes itās not mike because putting davy and micky alone to do the shopping together is not always the best idea). Micky is not always the best at calming peter down because he sometimes can make it more overstimulating, but he figured out a good way to calm peter and get his brain thinking about other things by pointing to something and saying āpeter what color is that car/sign/whateverā or, if thereās nothing all that interesting around asking peter what different animals say.
peter also gets bedtime stories read to him a lot. either that or they sing to him. sometimes mike will have peter and davy snuggled up on either side of him while micky sits and the end of the bed and sings and they often all do harmonies together. sometimes mikeāll figure out a new song right before bed and they all work it out together, running to get a guitar while micky drums out a beat on the bedframe saying āweāre really gonna make it big with this one guys!ā and itās so exciting. wholesome little rock band activities.
(this is not a headcanon and this post is already so long so iām leaving random stuff out for maybe another time but i just have to put it into the world because when the monkees are little little cuties i go absolutely insane. you know in monkee mother when micky starts spoonfeeding pudding or something to peter, is that not the cutest fucking thing in the world?!???! micky is so older brother) okay, now back to our regularly scheduled programming of *shuffles cards* the rest of the random peter headcanons!
peterās nickname is ļæ½ļæ½peterbabeā (said as all one word) sometimes elongated to āpeterbabyā and micky jokes that they should change his full name to āpeterbabe torkā because they just say it so darn often.
this is pretty obvious but peter loves flowers! hes a flower boy! he even grows daffodils! :) He brings flowers into the pad (micky is allergic to a lot of them unfortunately so heās prone to sneezing fits) and he likes putting flowers in everyoneās hair (mickyās hair is particularly fun to put flowers in so peter tries extra hard to find ones he wonāt sneeze over) as well as his own hair and he puts them along the windowsills too, which has made for some good photography.
I guess since this is so long iāll finish it off with a little thought since itās indeed christmas: in the christmas episode they all rag on peter about getting ābadā gifts and to me the only gift thatās not really working is the coat for davy cause itās just too big. It was mikes fault for opening snow skis in july, and the chemistry set is actually a very thoughtful gift for science-loving micky, micky just had to go and DRINK whatever concoction he had made which is basically lab safety no no #1 and that is not peterās fault. the writers pulled those ābadā gifts out of their asses. anyway.
AH! and a bonus because i forgot to include it in the davy post hereās a davy headcanon I hold dear that was from the monkees headcanon instagram account but is so wholesome that i need to bring it to everyoneās attention: davy falls asleep on the couch and often needs to be carried to bed. thank you.
And yes, davyās ādiagnosisā in 33 1/3 being āregressionā on top of him literally dancing around dressed as a toddler in a babyās bedroom can 100% support my idea that davy is baby real.
AND WITH THAT, thank you so much for the ask! these asks give me an excuse to just dump out my thoughts and I hope other people enjoy them despite how long and disorganized they are. sorry about that lol.
#the monkees#peter tork#mike nesmith#davy jones#micky dolenz#monkees headcanons#sorry that this goes on for a while and gets a little heavy handed with the nightmares stuff#peter is a pretty important character to me and he deserves all of the love and all of the snuggles#and davy and peter are definitely both mikeās little ones and he loves them both so much because heās their mama#okay iāll shut up the monkees are all wittle babies just know that#monkees found family is very special and wonderful#also also! merry christmas everyone who celebrates! i did stuff on saturday so i feel like the holidayās already over for me lol

there are so many things that can be said in regards to grief, and yet no words can ever truly convey the depth and breadth of the agony it leaves you with
#tbd#my great aunt - essentially my grandmother figure - passed in the early morning hours on Saturday#it wasn't unexpected. she wasn't doing well since Christmas and she was doing especially bad this last week#she was 97 it's not like she went too early but it's one of those things where i thought she'd be around forever. and it really hurts#and just - having to still go about your day and go to work and do your jobs and not act like you've lost someone so important#and trying to both grieve the loss but also celebrate the incredible life of someone so beloved#and also contending with the knowledge that now my dad and his cousin are the oldest members of his side of the family#and grappling with thoughts of mortality and the passage of time and all that...

Do you think any of the families would've declared the kids legally dead? Besides Daniel. The ones that love the kids.
After a yr they could ask to have it made official. I'm sure the courts would agree that the chance of survival is so low that it's functionally nonexistent. But they were already halfway there. I'm sure they would've made it.
I'm just thinking about how weird it would be to get home and find out they'd had your funeral.
#guaranteed the families of all 6 wouldve attended the memorials for the other kids#besides daniel#gdi why is daniel such an asshole#camp cretaceous#a wild hc appears#kenji wouldve wanted to know the attendees and would suspect his dad either made a token appearance or wasnt there#darius would understand#his name and dates would be added to a larger stone at his dads grave with a dino joining them - symbol of their active loving relationship#ben would keep the stone bc it represented the end of old ben#so when he really does pass it would be like idk the dates but m/d/2001 - m/d/2015 and then skip to the day he beat toro and finish out š#brooklyn would see the superficial 1-day shows of grief from followers and it would solidify how important it is to live for herself#yaz wouldnt have a grave just a cabinet at her moms house full of pics and mementos and her memorial would be as low-key as possible#sammys fam would refuse to have a funeral but would have a celebration of her life#and would talk about her in the present tense#bc even after someone dies theyre still part of the family#idk im just thinking

#today I am sad about something that I know objectively is dumb#my 30th birthday is next week and the party will be next Saturday and Iām having a dinner at a nice restaurant in town#I wasnāt supposed to make it to 30 and never thought I would but now somehow I have and so this birthday is likeā¦#a really huge deal to me you know#and I always wanted to be able to have a big party to celebrate this specific occasion and in my head I pictured all my friends/family there#I figured this would be one of the biggest parties Iād ever get to throw because to me this is the biggest milestone Iāve gotten to so far#but out of all the people Iāve invited the most that will probably reasonably show is about 10#and even thatās a bit iffy because tbh Iām pretty sure my bestie will flake on me like he always does#and if he doesnāt show up that might just end the friendship but thatās another matter entirely#also iffy because I havenāt gotten a lot of responses still even though I made the event and sent invites two weeks ago#I justā¦ thought I had more friends than that if that makes sense#like I had bigger parties with more people attending in high school and I barely had any friends then#Iāve thrown low key Halloween parties in my momās apartment that had more people show up#now Iām at the most important moment of my life (so far) and Iāll barely have anyone with me#lately it just feels like less and less people care about me for real despite how many I know around work or how many are on my Facebook#it feels like my world keeps shrinking and I really donāt want that because itās been small enough as it is#I just feel like Iām never really going to find my place or have big groups of friends like everyone else#Iām never going to have a group of friends or people I can rely on to spend time with me when needed#as it is planning things gets harder the older we get anyway just due to needing to tend to adult life#guess I still just want what everyone else has and I donāt know why I canāt have those things#and I know itās stupid and selfish and whiny but I really want to cry because Iām so depressed that I have barely anyone in my life at all#barely anyone to celebrate something so important to me and so few who even seem to care at all either#Iām grateful for everyone I do have honestly#but that doesnāt offset this weird pain in my chest over this whole situation#maybe I should just curl up and cry until this all passes and I can go back to pretending it doesnāt matter#personal

maybe a marriage ceremony for the prides could be like the āchange your clan for loveā thing in the newer warriors books? a ceremony about Cat A (probably almost always a tom) leaving their birth pride behind to join their mateās pride.
I definitely see this happening in the future, as the prides make an effort to evaluate their culture and change for the better, but rn they're not quite there yet :P Esp cus they don't currently think a tom joining his mate's pride is a cause for celebration
#its about why does one choose a mate. what is the cultural significance of this. why is this bond celebrated#because a pairing is usually between two mollies in the pride but on a cultural level#they dont merge families! even kittens whose mother has a mate isnt generally seen a second parent#because the whole of the pride is a family#so what does it mean when two cats decide to get married. what changes. what are the practices and beliefs#what's so important about two cats within a family group deciding to marry that there needs to be a whole ceremony about it#know what i mean
