#bullying awareness

[nogenderonlychair]

Rest in peace to the girl who hated dresses and ran around constantly climbing tall trees and punching bullies. Rest in peace to a girl. Rest I peace to hating dresses. Rest in peace to being able to run. Rest in peace to climbing in high trees. But I still punch bullies im just better at it now.

Hello everyone. This is not the topic that I would prefer to be covering but it needs to be addressed.

@anastyaaaaa who is/was better known as @abigaaal or Claudia has officially left Tumblr. Hee original account was banned because she reblogged posts about Gaza and the war but what really went on is deeper than this. You can find Claudia’s official goodbye post here

Another blogger on here (besides @krasivaa aka Divna) has been consistently bullying Claudia which has probably put her at her final straw. This blogger is @king-george-v-queen-mary

I do not know the extent of what has been happening because this person has not targeted me, but from private messages with Claudia I see that this person is being very cruel with her and is bullying her.

Here is a screenshot of an ask that this person sent Claudia:

Claudia has no other screenshots of what this person has done to her but they have bullied many other people on tumblr.

Bullying is a serious issue and a problem and to have it inside the royal fandom on tumblr isn’t okay or right, please spread awareness to this subject and always be mindful and know that what you say can impact many people. Thank you.

Pink Shirt Day is an annual event against bullying, held in Canada and New Zealand. Participants wear pink shirts and attend or host informative events to raise awareness about bullying, particularly in schools. Pink Shirt Day was started in 2007 in Canada, where it is held on the last Wednesday of February each year.

Hi my loves 🩷 hope you are alright and that you had a wonderful day 🫶🏻

I am in need of your help. So I have a project for uni and that implies making a social media campaign about bullying and educating people about it through social media. So me and my team need 1000 likes in order to “succeed” and the campaign to be successful; and as a bonus for us we won’t have to actually have an exam if we prove that our campaign was a success. It would really mean a lot if you could give some likes and a follow maybe but I understand if it may be uncomfortable for you guys to follow from your personal account so it’s totally alright. In this case, only if you are open for it,you can rb so maybe your followers/anons may want to be part and help.

Thank you so much my darlings and you all mean so much to me and thank you for helping. Ily all and hope you all have a wonderful week 🫶🏻🫂

Screw the World

Bullying causes unbearable pain and despair. If you are being cruel and unkind to someone, please know that the agony you are causing them is likely to become too much to handle... Think about what you are putting out into the world.

If you are the victim of bullying - TELL SOMEONE. You are worth so much more than their words and actions. You deserve to be happy.

This pain is real, I can’t go on -

Rather go, than see the dawn.

Lord, tonight will you come for me?

Can’t stand this painful agony.

I’m so tired, I need to rest.

Feels like these thugs stand on my chest.

No longer have the ability to breathe.

Which is why it makes sense for me to leave.

Nightmares come when I’m still awake,

no matter how many sleeping pills I take.

Dreams don’t arrive when I’m in my bed,

cos there’s a demon standing by my head.

All those vultures want a piece of me.

How is this my reality?

Where the hell did it all go wrong?

That I’m left here all on my own.

The walls close in, there’s no way out.

Even if they heard me scream and shout,

none of them would care enough

to help me out of feeling this rough.

I’m at a loss, what the hell to do?

Should I believe that the gossip is true?

Around my head, all the memories swirl.

I can’t take any more. SCREW THE WORLD.

Probably not the first person to say this but bullying feels like it’s been far too normalized for what it is. It’s often a plot point in a coming of age story and treated like a usual thing, or the bullying is minimized by the plot saying the bullies have something going on at home. Like okay, still doesn’t excuse the bullies actions.

Personal story time:

I’ve been bullied a lot. Don’t remember how often because eventually it just became normal. It was normal for the kids in school to whisper behind my back and not want to talk with me.

But as I’ve grown into my identity the bullying has shifted to just straight up transphobia at points. What used to be “look at how fat name is” became “oh sorry it’s” said like I’m a freak or something.

Side track, sorry: strong believer that there are no pronouns that are prematurely dehumanizing (I.e it/it’s) it’s how someone uses those pronouns.

Back on track. Sometimes the transphobic mixes with the bullying. Like my second day of school I’m in biology, in a seat I picked out before some boys came in. They sit at my table. Fine whatever we don’t have a lot of group work that needs my input.

Attendance is called. I usually raise my hand or wave cause speaking sucks ass. But the teacher was looking down and well I felt okay speaking. I say here, but at the same time one of the boys mocks my voice and does a high pitched thing. Teacher doesn’t notice.

And I don’t really want to bring it up because someone could easily say I’m overthinking or overreacting. It’s not like last year where I had a god send of an advisor and world lit teacher.

Adding on to that, last year I did speak up to my world lit teacher. Not much really happened because my evidence mostly was “boys I don’t know are laughing at me and mocking my pronouns, plus not respecting the heavy subject we’re reading”.

It’s easier when it’s a teacher I trust. And I think that’s another problem with bullying. Personal story number two: in fourth or fifth grade some, really most, of my classmates did not like me. I was the kid who talked a lot about stuff I liked and had this “weird obsession” with cats. (At the time I had three. Sue me for loving them)

I’m in some gifted and talented program, don’t recall what for. (Probably being gifted and/or talented). I semi trust the teacher for the program and speak up on how I’m kind of uncomfortable with how some girls in class treat me.

Teacher says that “they tease evreyone” and that it’s really no big deal. Now that I’m writing this I’m sure it was fourth grade but it could have been early fifth. But teasing everyone is still bad. It’s fine with friends if your friends are cool with it, but a whole class of kids? Someone (me) is going to internalize that or its feeling.

This ramble really is just me saying, if you as a teacher can’t see that a kid may be genuinely upset about the “harmless” stuff (especially on elementary where things are more likely to stick) you are kinda maybe failing at your job.

Not to say that every teacher who doesn’t notice that is failing. Elementary teachers usually teach all the subjects and are with the class all day. But if a student comes up and voices their discomfort, don’t brush it off.

Real personal, heads up mention of suicide:

In the tail end of fifth grade I was diagnosed with clinical depression because i wrote a suicide note. It wasn’t fun. The most I remember is I got a Wendy’s frosty, a small fear of hospitals and I missed out on a cookie rally.

When I came back everyone in my class was nicer. Started treating me like I had feelings. Because they felt “bad”. I’m going to go on a rant real quick but, oh you felt bad? I threatened to kill myself and now you realize your actions have consequences? You didn’t think calling this kid weird and insulting them was bad until the consequences of your actions were laid out in messy handwriting? Yes I did write the note at pick up time. Story for later. I’m really sorry it took my mom rushing home from work the minute she was notified for you to realize your words have impact. I’m so sorry your head was so far up your ass to see that shit. Sorry you forgot the fucking golden rule.

Sorry, I clearly still have strong feelings about this. Some more personal tidbits I want to get out before a big old conclusion.

Some kids asked me why I changed my name because my dead name was pretty, had never spoken to me before this. I have a hard time accepting any genuine compliment unless it’s from internet strangers, because y’all don’t know how “ugly” I am. I did lose a majority of my friend group due to a joke poorly explained which I probably blogged about. So now I’m like 2 close friends, 2 friends and one acquaintance. And it will not change. Mocked for my “crushes” in elementary because i latched on to the people who didn’t treat me like a freak. Also thought romance was non-optional.

Okay, sorry one more rant that I think fits more to online spaces. Covid totally changed the way people interact on the web right? Like before fandom was for the nerds and even the more popular shows had nerd filled fandoms. Seen several people talk about it but Covid just kinda opened up fandom to everyone, because what else would you do. Watch paint dry?

And so now fandom is more trendy and people hate on simple stuff like self or crack ships. As people far more invested in fandom space than I have said, the popular kids started to get in but they didn’t respect fandom rules. They just kinda wormed in and because their popular expected things to go their way. Idk, just thought it was fitting.

Oh and I’m not touching how bigotry overall is being normalized with shit like “womp womp” and “the world kept spinning”. Also not touching zero tolerance policy because by god is this post long.

Okay. Conclusion. Maybe.

My take? Bullying is normalized and treated like nothing despite most schools championing a zero tolerance policy. It’s often ignored or swept under the rug.

Since most of my bullying was in my early years it stuck with me that although it was wrong, no teacher would stand up for me. That’s fucked up. If kids are basically taught tell no one it won’t matter either way, something bad is bound to happen.

I’m lucky I have a great family and a therapist to talk to about this. But some kids don’t. School can be a safe space. Don’t let it be ruined.

In a perfect world no one would bully anyone and we’d all be fine with people having differences. But unfortunately life sucks. People are jerks and sometimes it’s easier to just keep your head down and say nothing.

Don’t listen to that advice though. It sucks and is probably why I’m on antidepressants.

Hi, this is Divna. Before you even wonder, this is not a fake acc, just a spam one I had for my cf literally years ago. I don’t want this to be too long so I’ll just go straight to the point. I’m so sorry for being so rude to you. Personal life was cruel to me back then, which is not an excuse, but try to have that in mind. I am in fight with half of the fandom including you bc of two persons-Gordana and Claudia. I wasn’t always good towards them either, but they weren’t to me too. I’m not mad at anyone, but I don’t wanna Gordana in my life, and she doesn’t want me, so we are just on distance for 14 months. I’m not really thinking about Claudia at this point + she left. So the point is, I don’t want to be in fight with you Tumblr royal fandom guys anymore, and I’m really hoping you can forgive me, unblocking eachother and be normal with each other again. I also understand if you don’t want to, but this is just something that my heart told me to do after a very little thinking. I would also be grateful if you message me instead of answering this publically, but I’ll leave you space to do as you think is better. Whatever that is your choice, please leave me a sign that you read this.

Thanks for patience, and sorry 1000000 times again,

Bye!❤️

Hello. I am going to answer this publicly because you made a huge impact (not in a good way) with the royal fandom and justice needs to be served.

What you did was unacceptable. You severely bullied and harassed many people in the fandom, also many left because of you. Many will not forgive you for the giant rift in this fandom but I understand and know some parts of your life and how that can influence your very bad decisions, but that will never be an excuse for your behavior and your own choices. This all happened awhile ago, but we will never forget what happened and even though I do forgive you in some ways, we will never forget, even if you were just a child.

As to the old accounts, I will not be unblocking them for safety reasons (my personal decision) but you can make new ones if you want, but I will never say no to blocking them in the future if anything similar to this happens again. I can’t say about others though.

I would not want to be friends again or have any personal relationships anymore, but second chances for peaceful blogging is an option that I can give. Other peoples actions after this ask is up to them and if anyone’s objects to anything I said just message me and we can work it out. You were responsible (partly and fully) for making 2 of my friends leave, nothing like this can happen again and I hope you have changed for good.

Thank you.

Hey, guys, so I have decided to write a short story for Halloween this year. So, here is a sneak peek. I hope you like it 😄🎃👻

THE SLEEPOVER

A Halloween Special 

Synopsis

WHEN SHY NEWCOMER, LILY RYAN, is dared by the most popular girl in school to spend the night in the haunted Anderson Manor, she reluctantly agrees, hoping to finally fit in. The decaying mansion, shrouded in eerie legends of tragedy and restless spirits, soon reveals its dark secrets. As the night unfolds, Lily, along with her friends, Maya Harper and Kai Williams, must confront not only the supernatural but also their own fears and insecurities. In the heart of the haunted house, they will discover that some dares are far more dangerous than they seem, and fitting in might come at a terrifying price.

As much as I love my history teacher, I think an issue I see in many teachers that also applies to her is, they don't take cyberbullying seriously.

(mentions of cyberbullying and suicide under the cut)

It's easy to say that "she shouldn't have killed herself over it, it's the internet you shouldn't be expecting ppl to always be nice or kind, you don't need to share everything," which obviously isn't all wrong. It's the truth, you shouldn't expect people to always be nice to what you post online, and you should be careful about it.

She was referring to a recent case where a girl was cyberbullied to suicide, with the perp being fined measly 100 ringgit.

The absolute lack of empathy towards the victim in that one sentence sat wrong with me. As a teacher, you shouldn't be saying those things so nonchalantly.

Do we know, or even think for a second that this girl expected all positive comments? No, esp considering she's young, she probably didn't ever expect just positive comments but even if she did, why are we not condemning the bully for being so confident in being a horrible person online?

Why are we blaming the victim for allegedly being naive online, when the person who drove another person to suicide, is not mentioned at all? Why are we talking about the mishandling of the victims emotions when the perpetrator is the one who couldn't handle not being so negative to another person, that it drives them to suicide. The fact she (the perpetrator) got off basically scot free too.

When will we stop talking about the victims of cyberbullying like they're the ones who need to be locked up for the crime of maybe being naive or not controlling their emotions in the "right" way, leading them to view suicide as the only option? When will we begin to condemn cyberbullies and punish them?

When will teachers, and the older generation take Cyberbullying as an actual crime and not as some stupid things the "sensitive" newer generation does and can't handle?

I Am A High School Student.

I wrote this as a script for a short film I’m planning on making, but I wanted to post it here anyway. I don’t want to give too much of an explanation for it, I just want it to speak for itself.

It would mean the world to me if this post could be shared, as I’m trying to reach different social groups than I usually do <3

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi. My name isn’t important. At least, not to a lot of kids. 

I am a high school student. I swim competitively on my school swim team. I like riding my bike, writing, listening to music, and watching YouTube. My favorite subjects in school are Language Arts and Psychology. I hate doing homework. My favorite show is Heartstopper, and I love watching playthroughs of horror games.

I don’t like school. I wish I could say it’s because I don’t like History, or because it’s boring. But, really, I don’t like it because I feel like I don’t belong there. Kids move away from me when we have to turn and talk at our tables, and I get weird looks a lot. I hear kids making fun of people like me in the halls, or during breaks.

Outside of school isn’t much better, either. I like swinging on the swings at the park. I like to go there with my friends, or alone. I like it better there at night. When I go in the daytime, I get called names. I’ve been called emo, gay (even though I actually am), weird, and a couple slurs. I’ve had people hold bibles up to me. I’m scared to go outside during the day because of how often this happens to me.

Sometimes, I wonder if anyone would care if I disappeared. They don’t seem to care about how their words hurt me, even when I’m visibly upset, so why would they?

My favorite subjects in school are Language Arts and Psychology. I hate doing homework. My favorite show is Heartstopper, and I love watching playthroughs of horror games.

I like dyeing my hair, and dressing alternatively. I struggle to form my thoughts into words. I am disabled. I am neurodivergent. It’s hard to stay in school sometimes, and my 504 plan helps with that.

I don’t like school. I’m afraid of what people will say. I don’t understand why they don’t see me the same as they do with other students. I am a high school student.

I am neurodivergent. My favorite show is Heartstopper. I like dyeing my hair, and dressing alternatively. I love watching playthroughs of horror games.

I am a high school student. I am a person. I am human. Just like them. Why am I treated differently than others? Why do they call me names and avoid me? They are high school students. They are people. They are human. Just like me.

So why do they look at me like I’m less than human?

[please-someone-give-me-love]

One of my bullies apologize to me a couple of years ago, in that time I accepted their apology because I have the wrong belieft that I was able to move on and keep living but some years later I regret later and that's because in that moment I never tried to understand the trauma they left me, I was just trying to forget what they did to me, forget the bad feelings and the ptsd they induced me, I was just trying to hide the trauma in the back of my head and keep living but I think there is a point that a lot of people don't really talk about bullying.

You can't hide from it, you can't just run away from that and pretend it didn't happen because it did happen and it did affect you.

After later I am still not able to fully forgive what those people did to me, but I am able to recognize my own pain and validate my own feelings.

TW: Suicide mentions

Hello everyone, I have a serious discussion to talk about.

For those who don’t know me, my name is Kaleb. I normally dont do posts like but like I said earlier this is an serious discussion that needs to be said.

My friend Felicia Loalbo Mendez was found unresponsive in her school’s bathroom after attempting suicide and was pronounced dead 2 days later on Febuary 8th. She was only 11 years old.

Felicia and her mom kept emailing the school about bullying but the school ignored the email and denies any accusations. The school only gave Felicia’s mom EDITED security footage from the day Felicia was unresponsive. They allowed kids to mock Felicia’s death.

Felicia’s mom started a Gofund me to help raise money to eventually file a case against the school. Please help bring Felicia justice!! Repost this!

Atone the empty shell eliotrope

D-4 before the broadcast of Wakfu S4! 

The eliotropes are not kind to each other, especially towards poor Atone during his childhood 😔

Note that the words in bold are very impactful words for him 👀 

For English speakers, I can't translate everything for you but it generally talks about Atone's situation where he doesn't move or moves very little, he has a strange posture, his hair is odd (even though it's a short undercut that he has!) according to his eliotropes brothers and sisters, that he is called a puppet, a monster, a weirdo, that he stares fixedly without us knowing who he is looking at, etc. Anyway, anyway! Very nasty words that Atone suffered during his childhood and this will last for centuries (note that a young eliotrope reaches adulthood after several hundred years)!

Just a detail : If you are the victim of harassment or intimidation, you need to talk about it! Don't stay in your corner and take action! Talk to a trusted person (adult, friend/classmate, etc.)
