There is no sense that there is a difference of kind between a harsh word and a saw to the limbs; in the sermon, these are only differences of degree. The response to all insult, to all violence, is sympathy for the devil that does it to you. Whether you are struck with hand or stone or club or knife, or carved up with a saw, you must not hate.
But what about the hand that strikes? What about the hands that hold the stone or the club or the knife? What of the hands upon hands needed for the saw? What of the state and the death politics? What of the hierarchies of power that organize and direct this violence? What about the givers of orders, the payers of bills? Is this not an engine of hate, deriving from hate, designed with hate, operating on ancient principles of hate?
The simile is told with a purpose. It teaches the hated to hold still. To not buck under the saw’s teeth.

do you think that sally cried herself to sleep that night after seeing poseidon again and having percy be so mad at her combined with the worry she felt and the frustration and the agony that her baby was never going to be safe? because i would. i'd be sobbing.

not an ask, but I saw ur post and relate a lot to it.
anticipatory grief sucks. people will tell you not to think about it, not to let it steal from today, but some days are just so hard. sometimes it feels unavoidable, like it’s some goliath mountain in the distance or even the sky and you can’t not look at it. it’s like you have to keep trying to distract yourself not to think about it, and it’s exhausting, and you’re so fucking scared of the inevitable.
like how does anyone even function? the idea of the world continuing to spin when there’s this terrible, horrible thing that will happen some day is unfathomable but it does, and it’s horrible. Some day will mark the before and the after. nobody can ever be ready for it.
I hope the love you have keeps you strong. wishing you the best.
this is literally it. i know thinking about it Now wont make the actual day it happens any easier. but it's impossible to not think about it, especially since there's no tangible way to preserve memories or feelings or the like forever. i cry easily and get emotional over most anything and everything, which is another layer of difficulty wrt it because I spiral. I want to squeeze out of my body. im not meant for any of it
#skunk mail#Anonymous#ill be in a car with my dad fighting tears thinking about how ill miss it one day and there's no way for my brain to capture the moment and#make a simulation of it. and even then that wouldnt help. ykwim#sometimes i sit in my parents room while my parents and brother are there and i cant stop thinking about when ill see them for the last tim#and how i wish i could full really truly wring every last drop of ''appreciation'' from the moment.#i think about that time isnt linear thing. how everything that has happened or will happen exists on its own#and i think about the cheye experiencing the After tragedy. and i cant handle it. not now or then. i envy the past cheye#even the one of 5 seconds ago. because that was 5 seconds ive lost. 5 seconds closer to events that will#separate my life into Before and After. over and over again#(like you said anon. i think abt that all the time too)#i think this is also why im struggling with the thought of moving out#we all have so little time. dont even get me started on the fear and grief i feel for my own life#not only fearing dying but fearing the lead up where ive lost and cried over much. just me. alone.#ill never see them again. it will never be today again. we'll never be in my parents room like today again. i cant take it.#even if i spend every last second with everybody i still wont be able to take it. i cant believe it#human beings that were all somebody's baby once. tomorrow it will be like they were never here at all. all their memories#go with them. it hurts so bad. i cant take it#i cant even breathe rn ruminating abt it *peace sign emoji*

... goosebumps
#the moment ichinose didn't sit beside touma i knew#baby boy baby. i have to protect him i have to. i need to tell him everything will be okay myself#i wouldn't wish for my worst enemy to get through something like that. for his entire world to see what hides his pouring heart#and how ichinose must feel i can only imagine.#i dont know anymore#i teared up during his confession#im not joking i had chills during *that* scene#if it weren't bc is 3am on here i would be running around the house screaming#heartbreak can be so devastating. an overwhelming pain and loneliness only gay people know#ao no flag#reading#idk how to put this but this manga has such a deep understanding of interpersonal relationships and how complex they can get

Tomorrow we are having a dance performance at a big venue, a pretty big and great event for our little dance group. So of course today was the last and main rehearsal day, with all the dancers coming from the other groups as well. So naturally my body decided to give out on me, feeling more than terrible with an ongoing migraine and topped with an unexplained tachycardia, my heart going well over 100 bpm even just laying in bed.
Of course I called that I can't make it today, with the promise that no matter what happens I will be there on the stage tomorrow, unless I'm dead.
Naturally, half an hour later the tachycardia passed, making me feel a hundred folds better. And while I still don't feel actually good, now I have regrets that I didn't go, because I wanted to be there, because who cancels on the main rehearsal?
And I have to keep reminding myself that my husband almost took me to the hospital, that my lips went blue, and while logically I know staying home was the right decision, my heart on the other hand...
#personal#sorry i had to vent#because im sitting here with a comfort dog in my lap and in on the verge of tears

I think I'm rather happy with that. I think I'd rather like to give RTD my firstborn in exchange (this is an easy offering as I have none, but the sentiment is there). Yeah, it was contrived as the most contrived fanfic but jesus christ don't we sometimes just need that. Having geared myself up to properly say goodbye to David Tennant's Doctor (fucking again) and then mentally pushed myself to say goodbye with so much episode to go. Like actually thinking 'Allons-y' was just the right piece of fluffy, ridiculous sentimentality to end on...
To be gifted that - both for me and for him and for Donna... well goodness I'll take it. He gets his happy ending for at least a little while. This leaves the door open for so much and I don't even mean him coming back in future episodes, or worlds and worlds of domestic fic, but just for him to be happy, the character to get something he so clearly deserves and needs. So like... yeah I'm utterly pleased with that. I will be able to watch it again and again - the entire three episodes - and not have that sadness in the background. Huzzuh. I needed that too.
#doctor who#doctor who spoilers#dont worry Im still sitting here crying my face off#on three hours sleep#but i guess the sad tears didn't really start until after the episode#if you ignore the burst of emotion when RTD enjoyed his well deserved fake out#rolling around in feelings is good for the soul

It's been a while since I've been growled at...
#she comes up to me saying 'let me talk to you for a sec'#completely normal#like she would any other day#only to then lean into my ear and tell me how my desires mean nothing#how my wants should be controlled by her#how I should blindly obey what she says#to think just a few hours ago we were having fun laughing in the car#now im sitting here‚ vision blurred by tears‚ as I feel the exact same distrust I did a few years ago#i didn't ask for much#i never do#mainly because I don't want anything but still#it honestly reminds me of when I was a child#granted‚ it doesn't get to me as much anymore#but it still gets me#i swear my mother's voice takes on the body of a wolf when she growls#it's like an instinctive fear to want to hide from it in that state#it's like I've turned into a prey animal#making sure not to make any movements or sounds#hoping that the wolf glaring me down won't bite me#just like when I was a kid#so now I sit here crying a salted gentle rain#subtlety reminded of times I felt even more helpless#at least I'm not there anymore...#bluey's vents#tw vent#cw vent#bluey's mum#abluehappyface
