‘we need to normalize male friendships’ being said in response to jayvik got me thinking.
where were these people when the same thing happened, but with a man and a woman?? when the same thing has happened in media for literal decades, where a man and a woman cant even be near eachother or god forbid FRIENDS without it turning into something. most if not all movies end w the guy getting the girl. they can never be platonic. never.
what if i said the same thing abt timebomb? how would those same people react? if i said that friendships between men nd women need to be normalized?
maybe we should normalize friendships between men nd women first. just a thought !
#arcane#arcane viktor#arcane jayce#jayvik#gay#arcane rant#not to cry wolf but i feel like alot of this has to do w the fact its a gay ship#could i be overreacting? maybe!#but these r just my feelings nd opinions#nd im allowed to have them

this guy is honestly making me question too much shit
bc there's no way in hell is just that nice, right?
at this point either: 1. he's being this nice and kind bc he has a crush on me, 2. he's honestly that nice, which will make me have a crush on him, bc omg. he's just the nicest person ever
#aj rambles#sorry but this guy is making me so confused#especially since i was having an “am i even attracted to guys” phase - which is not helping this situation at all......#but like ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh#context if you're nosy: i sent an email to all students on my department with a forms to see if anyone could help in the data acquisition#but like this procedure takes an hour - i said so in the email - so i thought no one would be interested#and he just volunteered?? in the forms?? didn't even tell M - who introduced us - to ask me about it. no he volunteered as if he is actuall#interested in this#which i know he isn't bc i talk to him LOL#and like he does stuff like this all the time. like talk to me if he sees me alone - not just hi - he actually asks about stuff#he's watching an anime bc i recommended it to him. stuff like that#but maybe he's just that nice.#he also talks to my other girl friends like this ig#but we have more *moments* like once we seated together gossiping about his bff's love life LOL#idk#again maybe he's that nice. but then bad new's for my heart bc that is just the sweetest thing#ALSO HE'S SHY!!!!! LIKE BLACK CAT ENERGY!! IM A SUCKER FOR THAT#Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh#anyways omg im so sorry for this rant. this makes me think im overreacting#but idc

I finally finished watching Tower of god (the first season) and I was expecting that I would hate Rachel despite what people were saying about her. I mean like she was in the list of the most hated characters in anime but I don't really see it? Why? Because she pushed Bam ? Not gonna lie that scene gave me goosebumps.
I mean like I get it she betrayed him and she was even lying to him but I was expecting something way more. Like example laugh to his face or I don't know stab him perhaps but she didn't. People be really putting her in the same place as Bitch from The Rising of the Shield hero. The disrespect...I think Rachel is simply great villain to the story
#sometimes anime fans are overreacting way too much#I could see everywhere only the bad comments about her like she is the worst 😡#I don't know... maybe it depends on the age since I can imagine some kids hating her#and I am not trying to say I hate Bam in fact I love him#and now I see the motherfuckers released another season which I thought will never be here... great... another thing to watch#tower of god#rachel

anyway fic concept: Kenshi can deal with Johnny while they're fighting, arguing, bickering, etc. but as they become friends Johnny starts flirting with him, as you do with your friends, not seriously (yet) and Kenshi DOES NOT know how to handle with that. Johnny casually comments on how handsome he is or delivers a joking pick up line and Kenshi becomes a stuttering mess. someone should write this and tag me in it.
#mortal kombat#johnny cage#kenshi takahashi#johnshi#or he sees johnny joke flirting with kung lao or maybe another friend of theirs joke flirting and he's like it isnt a big deal#this is definitely not me projecting as per my last post#i just like the concept that kenshi doesnt know how to handle softness#and open affection#and slowly starts learning#also it wouldnt hurt that he could realize his feelings through his overreactions#or he sees johnny and kung lao joke flirting or maybe any of their friends and realizes it isnt a big deal for them#why is it a big deal for him#and thats his oh. oh. moment

Starting to almost wish I could just go do this fucking presentation today solely bc I’m getting mad and tired of the anxiety, how is it physically possible to be this anxious for so many days straight. There has to be a limit how long u can be on the verge of an anxiety attack like ????
#it’s stupid#cant sleep cant eat over ’’ppl are paying attention to me for 20minutes or so’’#i hate this so so much#bc like I KNOW it’s overreacting and unreasonable and it never is as bad as I think but knowing that won’t do shit for the anxiety#like it will he here until I’m back home tmrw after having presented it#at least it’s only like a day of this anymore but I don’t have the energy for this for even one more goddamn minute#literally what could happen in that presentation that would be worse than feeling like this??#the realistic worst case possible is that I lose my train of thought or have a ’’brain doesnt work’’ moment and have to take like 20secs to#gather myself and like maybe if someone asks a question I don’t have an answer to#but like I won’t die or anything#even if it’d be awkward (it will be awkward) that’s legit nothing#I’m ’’just some guy’’ to the ppl and after leaving the building they’ll never think abt my stupid ass presentation again#so wHY cant I fucking chill#april 2024#2024

Got off the bus hella early bc this lady kept staring at me intensely and it made me feel really uneasy
#personal#Its weird bc like#Women amd esp other woc are usually the people I feel safest around#But she literally moved seats so I was across from her instead of behind her#And sat across the seat so she could stare directly at me#And Like initially I tried to brush it off as me being weird#But I could feel her staring at me literally the whole time#And started smiling in this really particular way while staring at me#It only dropped if she glanced away or if i looked over at her#And at some point she like#Leaned To the side awkwardly#So I couldn’t see her face#But i could still feel her watching me#And she didnt move from that position until I got off the bus#Idk maybe I’m overreacting here#But it made me so uncomfortable like it didn’t feel right

on healing and on fear (tags)
#(typed this up at 3am and scheduling for later) no one needs to read this 🙏#today i went back to the site where i got injured back in may to partake in a sport which i haven't touched at all since the injury#and i think what struck me was the realization that#i don't know if i'll ever be able to stop being scared again :')#for a time climbing was very special to me...#it was one of the only ways i could feel myself improving so tangibly when improvement is usually so difficult to track#i liked seeing myself get better at something 😭 i liked going with friends and puzzling over the same problems... i liked having something#to look forward to after work. and perhaps having something to look forward to sounds simple... but for me it meant so much :')#for the first couple months after the injury i couldn't wait to get back into it#and then one day i woke up and i was just afraid#the fear feels so much more tangible now that i know i am not overreacting... it's awful knowing that in a way i was right to be afraid#i always knew there were risks associated; i have always been cautious#but i had just been starting to learn to be braver 😭#and fuck... today i stood there and looked at the wall and thought. how can i ever not be afraid again?#how can i go back to how things were before? when i loved this? when i could tell myself that - despite the fear - it was meaningful to try#i wanted to come away with the takeaway that i could take things slowly and get back into climbing - maybe precisely because#i remember so keenly how i loved it - but how could it ever be the same?#😭 i know this is just part of growing up but#in some ways i am tired of growing up... :') in some ways i just want that joy as it was then#delete later probably#i suppose i haven't lost anything but typing this made me sob for something i couldn't quite name

🎤 thoughts: is it normal for friends to kind of ~disappear after getting together with someone and is it normal to feel sad about it
#ive been wondering this for a while bc one of my super close friends has been dating this girl for like 4 months atp#and since then i think our communication has gone down by a lot ajsbsf#for context this guy is rlly good friends with me and my bf!! he and my bf go waay back since they were 5 😭#and he and i trauma bonded in hs LOL which is why we're so close#he's at the level of like. he could be my maid of honour in my wedding 😭 like i would put him there along w my bsf#bc next to my bf i think they're the next 2 people who know me best 😭 but my bf also wants him as a groomsman 😭#and i think ive honestly witnessed him at the lowest points of his life hsbfsdf#there was one time we came from a night out with friends and when he dropped me home he had to park outside my house for a bit#bc he was having a full on breakdown and didn't want to go home yet 😭#i think ive witnessed him at many stages of his life basically sdfbsjdf#and i mean im not rlly taking it personally that he isnt talking to us as much cos i respect the whole new relationship phase#i also wouldnt want to cause problems or make his girl see me as a threat or smth 😭 so taking a step back a bit was a given#but my bf is fr getting sad abt it and honestly i am too a lil bit 😭 cos where is our friend 😭#i talked so much again#anyway what are some thoughts on this im curious#maybe im also just overreacting

this latest wtnv feels like they got halfway through writing it before realizing there weren't any more episodes in the season and had to wrap it up in a hurry
#like 'uh oh whoops better resolve this stuff'#babe did you consider maybe letting it end on a cliffhanger so it could be wrapped up in a satisfying and thematically relevant way?#wtnv#welcome to night vale#i did in fact see all the posts about how disappointing it was and thought people; might just be overreacting#but no#that did suck ass

In elementary school, I got picked on for …*checks notes*…
Calling my mom “momma”
Liking Hello Kitty
Watching Yo Gabba Gabba
Liking Dora The Explorer
Picking my nose
Wearing my hair in pigtails
Biting my nails
So in summary, I got bullied for…
….being a seven year old girl.
What the fuck.
#sometimes I wonder if I was overreacting to being bullied as a kid#if maybe some of it was justified at all in the sense that maybe I did deserve it#or that maybe I’m misremembering how it went#and then I remember that I was literally a little girl#I was talking to one of my coworkers a couple days ago and he was saying how much he loves Hello Kitty and#I didn’t even hesitate when I said that I loved her too#and the thing is it felt like my younger self was the one who said that and not me#she got excited to have an aquaintance who wouldn’t tease her for liking Hello Kitty#and she felt safe and excited to say it#and I know it was her because I feel as though I feel an overwhelming sense of embarrassment or shame#that had been bullied into me surrounding Hello Kitty#and other things I got made fun of for as a kid#but the admittance that I loved Hello Kitty for once held no shame or embarrassment#and I can only assume it was my younger self getting excited she could be interested in something without getting made fun of

ohhh that's why i had hellsite-yano (dude who mockingly added a screenshot of a trans woman's suffering to a thread) blocked already. he's that the-eagle-atarian/porko-rosso guy, so basically an ex-4channer/gamergater/anti-sjw being totally Normal at a disabled woman for talking about ableism
#silly storie#i see what posts like that OP are going for but as it happens they are also a huge hit with the 'overreacting strawman SJW comics' fandom#i wonder if maybe the 'you are a tar pit' post had a negative impact overall. in that abled people feel complacent and empowered--#--to use shame as a universal response to disabled/ND ppl who get too angry/rock the boat too much for their liking#idk maybe sometimes the person who could use a little relief IS the person everybody feels inclined to call a tar pit!!

There is a fine line between legitimate concern and an ocd obsession and I’m nearsighted as shit.
#on the one hand applying sunscreen frequently when your on the beach is important#cause like skin cancer and shit#on the other hand I have no idea if I’m worrying about it a normal amount or an excessive amount#my family seems to be super nonchalant about it#at least compared to me#so maybe I’m overreacting cause mental illness?#it also could just be plain old anxiety#either way I forgot sunscreen this time and I am Worried but unsure how Worried#ocd#actually ocd

This is the post that i was referencing in the tags of the previous post. I’m sorry but this is an incredibly dangerous take to have. The core principle of our democracy is the peaceful transition of power, and attempting to stop that even for someone who’s going to do as much harm as Trump is, would have UNPRECEDENTED consequences reciprocated back on us. Like, I can’t even begin to explain how horrific it would be for everyone, much worse than it is now, if this type of belief wins on the political left.
#like yeah there are maybe some official acts that biden could do to mitigate harm#but this person is demanding wayyyy more than harm reduction#they also said that people who are deciding to focus more on themselves and their own health and safety#and mentally checking out of this shitshow#instead of… idk… losing their minds with anger#are ‘dead’ to them#like… that’s not a mentally stable take to have and i don’t wanna follow that shit anymore#plus if you’re a true activist you should be very well aware that a) not everyone has the capacity to angrily protest all the time#and b) some anger is good but you gotta keep that shit in check before you lose yourself and are unable to help anyone at all#election 2024#politics#also this person has implied more than once over the past year that jews are overreacting to things that are going on#honestly??? how did it take me this long to finally have enough and unfollow them? idk man 🤷♀️

i just think it's so funny that when *i* lash out and start bitching *about* management to my coworkers because of a stressful day at work, i get pulled into the office to discuss my attitude, but when a manager lashes out and bitches *at me* because of a stressful work day, i get a halfassed "oh sorry, but-" and i'm expected to roll over and take it.
#ace rambles#negative//#boss prompted us to stop talking and keep it moving. okay sure whatever.#i lightheartedly asked what the rush was because we were almost done for the day#boss immediately snaps and starts yelling about how she's been busting her ass and hasn't gone to lunch yet#and she's ''not gonna watch four people stand and talk'' while she busts her ass#we were standing there for maybe thirty seconds. i didn't put you in that fucking situation girl#you're flying off the handle at the wrong guy#and i just know that if i had lashed out like that at her it would have at BEST been another ''conversation''#and more likely i would have been written up#i guess it's just another reminder that she's my boss. not my friend.#because if she were my FRIEND i would have been able to explain to her that that was incredibly hurtful#and that it really could have been just a minor issue at most#but i can't exactly look my boss in the eye and say ''hey you major overrracted and really hurt my feelings''#i've tried it with other managers and it doesn't end well#and look. i'm no stranger to getting frustrated and losing my cool.#it's a thing i'm actively trying to get better about but i'm big enough to admit that i have a long way to go.#the fact that she yelled at me isn't even what's bothering me#it's mostly the fact that i did not get a real apology and i really doubt i will.#and if i try and bring it up tomorrow or later then *i'm* going to look like the one who's overreacting and can't let it go#which tbh i probably maybe am?#i think i'm probably being stupid but i have a bad history with yelling and anger#which i don't need to get into you guys know the origin story already#whatever man#i want to cry but i'm in public still
