Slowly, I will learn what it means to be kind to myself.

forever thinking about how marcille and laios have such a richly weird and funny friendship dynamic that people I see tend to write off as "god she hates his ass" but in reality it's the frustration of one neurodivergent weirdgirl to another neurodivergent weirdboy who has no concept of masking, has never had to mask, and simply doesn't know how to mask making their entire group come across as "the weirdo freaks" despite her best efforts to not be labelled as "weird" probably her entire life

[thepersonalquotes]

True freedom is when all the stories, all the insights, all the realizations, concepts, beliefs and positions dissolve. What remains is what you are; a vast, conscious, luminous space simply resting in itself, not knowing a thing, at the point where all things are possible.

there's something profoundly distressing to me about one of the moderators of the disco elysium subreddit literally having to go on main to tell members of the sub not to advocate for violence against real, named human beings, because that is a thing that they are doing--only to have those very same sub members respond by insisting the moderator can't be serious, because everyone knows it's okay to talk about killing high net worth individuals on reddit. it's totally okay to make specific plans to kill high net worth individuals on reddit. it's totally okay and defensible and good praxis to state that anyone who isn't okay with advocating for killing specific, named high net worth individuals, will be the next up against the wall. it's a good idea to put this shit in writing actually. (what.)

like. aside from the fact that this is 1) a clear violation of reddit's terms of service and 2) could get the moderators and other members of this subreddit in serious legal trouble at a time when the law and justice in the courts is ostensibly out of reach for many of us, i just strongly doubt whether these people were actually paying attention to this game's key message about the moral defensibility of shooting people in the head. namely that there is no moral defence for it, because every shot you take has a ripple effect that quickly spirals out of your control. like that is very much a thing that happens, specifically in this game, because someone literally gets shot in the head.

where is that quote from kim kitsuragi, aka this fandom's favourite character and someone who is arguably the game's--and harry's--literal moral compass, talking about why he's glad that breechloading weapons aren't available to RCM officers? i can't find the quote, so i'm paraphrasing here, but it goes something like "can you imagine what it would be like if RCM officers didn't have to think each time they pull the trigger? the next shot becomes easier and easier. you don't even think about it anymore."

Vaggie, right after being de-winged after stopping herself from murdering a child: "drop me on the street and kick me by the dumpsters, because I'm trash."

Charlie: (;A;)

Vaggie: "...please uh, strange demon lady, don't cry."

Charlie: (crying a little) "Please come home with me and stop calling yourself trash..." (hiccups) (;m;)

[thepersonalwords]

Understanding of oneself is the first act in establishing a transformative philosophy for living a vivid and a reflective existence. Knowing thy self is essential to designing and instigating a meaningful life that is self-directed instead of exclusively controlled by innate traits and external determinates.

“Kara is idealistic, yes. You are realistic. That doesn’t mean you are different.” Kelly paused, then, “I have not seen anyone as connected as you two.” “That’s not true,” Lena disrupted her speech. “She’s like the sun, and I’m m–" “If you say moon, I’m going to smack you so hard sparks are going to explode everywhere.” Kelly threatened in jest.

What is Being? And when they say "you just have to Be" what do they mean?

ANON I MUS: The word 'being' or 'just be' (in the spiritual context) is the recognition of your true nature. To Be is to exist, here and now. When your attention is here, you are present (as pure existence). At the deepest level you are not your changeful thoughts, emotions, physical senses and experiences. You are the the awareness of them. You are aware of your thoughts and body, they are not aware of you. You are likened to the vast, changeless, unaffected sky; do not take yourself to be the changing clouds of appearances/experiences. You can never not be yourself. Do not associate your being with any passing experience. It is only our fascination (obsession) with what appears to us (content of experience) that binds us. You are beyond the momentary experiences that come and go in the changeless reality of your SEEING. Rest in the conviction that you are never that which appears, you are always that which is aware. Be aware that you are. Be fascinated with your pure being, notice your silent, perceiving existence. Dissolving identification with what you are not is true spiritual practice, keep returning back to the awareness of Self. Simply know that you are.

I hope this helps, Love and light.
