I feel this.

I grew up in a family where my mother stayed with my self centered emotionally abusive father to protect me from being taken away from her by my even more emotionally abusive grandparents.

I felt powerless, helpless, and I had low self esteem (which I still deal with on a daily basis). My first OC was a super powered hobbit warrior who was basically perfect and was always able to save the day.

I don't write perfect characters anymore but ocs like Amee got me through my parents screaming at each other, my dad's side of the family criticizing my looks, public school being ill suited for me... My Oc's got me through all that.

Self Inserts

when i was 12, my dad left my mum. it was sudden, unexpected, one minute we’d been a happy family, the next he was telling my mum he was having an affair with her best friend. a lot of stuff happened after that.

my mum’s depression kicked in hard (she’d been suffering from it since she was a teen, but she’d been pretty good for the past few years). my mum and dad’s friends both chose sides and my mum lost a lot of her support. I re-read the harry potter series 3 times (we didn’t realize until years later that my obsession with the series may have been caused by the fact that i was watching a harry potter movie when my dad left). my mum tried to kill herself, and upon hearing this my dad (who i was with at the time) didn’t tell me anything and dropped me off outside my aunt’s house, where no one was home. we moved in with my mum’s parents because neither of us was mentally well enough to take care of one another. I lost most of my friends (the real kicker for me was hearing two of them talking about me, not knowing i was behind them, saying “she needs to get over herself, she’s not the only one with daddy issues). I watched my dad almost choke my mum, then try to hit her and only stop when i screamed at him. my dad constantly tried to force me to like and spend time with his new woman, who i felt (and still feel) nothing but hatred for. I myself developed depression and anxiety. it was a lot.

As well as reading harry potter obsessively to cope, i also played a lot of Skyrim (and later Dragon Age). it was nice, to escape into this fantasy world, where the only thing that mattered was to fight dragons. I made characters, spending so long getting their appearance right, getting the right names, etc. Then i joined tumblr and learned what an OC was.

i had a lot of OCs at first, not wanting to abandon a single charatcer, but there were 2 that really grew and that i bonded with, and who i still have to this day. I’ll call them Crow and Llewellyn. I projected on Crow and Llewellyn a lot, each of them taking an emotion i was struggling with a lot at the time of their creation.

for Crow, it was sadness. She was the stereotypical depressed sad backstory character who everything bad happens to. She had a dead twin sister, both her older brothers ran away from home and left her to fend for herself against her abusive mother, her father was never around. She was suicidal and tried to kill herself and cut herself and didn’t really talk to people. She stopped me from actually self-harming, or worse Because even though all these horrible things happened to crow, she always managed to still survive. She made it through. She got BETTER.

for Llewellyn, it was anger. She was a child who’d suffered from anger problems since she was born, was hated and locked up by her family, blamed for her older brothers death (idk, i apparently had a thing about giving character dead siblings???), left locked in her room to stew in her rage, breaking things and screaming. She helped me when i wanted to send angry emails to my dad calling his new woman a cunt and bitch and slut and telling him i hated him and such. And eventually, Llewellyn escaped, she got away from her family, she found a way to help herself and she THRIVED.

(and once i started to realize i wasn’t straight, i added bits to both their backstories where they met and ended up getting together)

self-insert(/heavily-projected-onto) OCs saved my life honestly. They gave me… hope? i’m not sure if that’s the right word. But they helped me. I made more OCs, some less projected onto than others, and you know what? I got better, just like Crow. I thrived, just like Llewellyn.

People say self-inserts are cringey and stupid, but without them i don’t know where i’d be now. So please don’t shit on people with self-inserts. you don’t know what they’re going through

Don't let people trick you into thinking that there are 'right' ways to protest Trump

New Post has been published on https://www.uberbuyer.com/2018/07/14/dont-let-people-trick-you-into-thinking-that-there-are-right-ways-to-protest-trump/

Don't let people trick you into thinking that there are 'right' ways to protest Trump

If you’ve listened to the chattering classes lately, you’ve learned that there are civil and uncivil ways to protest Donald Trump and his administration. Most of these pundits frown on nonviolent heckling, confrontation, and shaming of aides like Kellyanne Conway, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Stephen Miller. They argue that such behavior erodes civil norms, and they fret that the subsequent viral media attention will alienate moderates.

While their opinions are worth hearing, there’s an unmistakable disconnect in being told by the country’s most influential writers that the powerless should meet their personal expectations for civil protest.

These are people whose livelihoods and reputations are largely safe from the Trump administration’s bureaucratic cruelty. If they become a target of the bully-in-chief himself, it’ll probably translate into increased book sales or page views — not deportation.

Nothing more reliably generates panic among US elites than the prospect of powerful white people facing any consequences whatsoever for their words & actions. https://t.co/YgfrZCUt3k

— David Roberts (@drvox) July 9, 2018

Pundits more interested in decency and decorum often view the endgame of protest as satisfying skeptical white moderates. Other strategies are considered doomed approaches for swaying public opinion or motivating voter turnout, which says something about whose needs these commentators think are most central in American life and politics.

As Nick Baumann, an editor at HuffPost, put it on Twitter last month after a Virginia restaurant owner declined to serve Sanders, “One thing the Red Hen situation has made abundantly clear is that the vast majority of people in the national media identify more closely with the White House press secretary than with anyone who might be in a position to cook or serve food to her in a restaurant.”

Meanwhile, those who turn to confrontational protest may see it as a signal to the rest of America that Trump’s racist rhetoric and policies are not normal or acceptable. It can be a rallying cry or an act of solidarity, regardless of whether it happens between two people in a restaurant or bookstore, or on the streets with thousands of people chanting the same message of resistance.

Every time we remind our office holders that the power belongs to we, the people, we are patriots.

— Brittany Packnett (@MsPackyetti) July 4, 2017

It may very well drive voter turnout in imperceptible ways by inspiring people who feel overwhelmed by the relentless cynicism of our politics, or encouraging those most negatively affected by Trump’s policies — and who wonder why their neighbors and countrymen aren’t voicing dissent on their behalf. That analysis, however, gets less interest and attention than the strategy of appeasing those occupying the so-called middle ground, ostensibly to win them over at the ballot box.

Yet what goes unsaid when we obsess over how white moderates will react to uncomfortable yet nonviolent displays of protest is that one man’s electoral strategy can be another man’s oppression. There’s a reason Martin Luther King Jr. singled out the white moderate for criticism in his Letter from Birmingham Jail, written in 1963:

“I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.”

Some may remember the Civil Rights era as a golden age for civil protest, but Celina Su, an associate professor of political science at the City University of New York, says mainstream historical pundits have a way of shifting the narrative so that those we agree with now abided by “respectability” politics.

Up until recently, for example, portrayals of Rosa Parks cast her as a tired woman who just wanted a seat on the bus. Instead, Su says, she was a “fierce” activist who’d attended training camps for civil disobedience.

“Folks who were really effective were definitely not considered civil at the time,” says Su.

She’s not surprised, given the current political climate, that some people are shaming Trump administration officials they encounter in public. When the average person lacks the financial power and access to a platform that the president and his high-profile staff members posses, while watching democratic institutions fail before their eyes, they may very well resort to using everyday forms of resistance to make themselves heard.

I keep reading in the press that we’re having an “immigration debate” when it is ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity, and an assault on all of our rights. We were never having an immigration debate.

— Alexander Chee (@alexanderchee) July 6, 2018

We should also question the idea that consensus can be inherently neutral and fair.

“Most often, unless you’re really paying attention to power and inequalities of power in the room, consensus is another mask for domination,” says Su.

There’s one more reason we should view catering to white moderates as a self-defeating task: The goalposts of civility will most certainly change depending on the messenger or the message. When Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) told people to continue confronting Trump officials in public, specifically about the separation of migrant children from their parents, Democratic leaders condemned her remarks, which were also mischaracterized by the president as an incitement to violence.

Maxine Waters is pushing back and calling on everyone to speak out against this Trump Administration whenever they see someone out in public. Check out this tag to see how pissed she’s making Trump supporters…I wonder why? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/ONjUPrYLc5

— Amee Vanderpool (@girlsreallyrule) June 24, 2018

Liberals may abandon shaming and public confrontation on the advice of pundits, but there’s no act of protest that someone somewhere won’t find objectionable or indecent. We know the president himself has no qualms about turning commentary about protest into inflammatory, misleading tweets. Most of his supporters seem eager to follow his lead.

So for anyone, liberal or otherwise, who feels compelled to speak out against the president, his administration, and its policies, perhaps look past the lecturing from pundits and focus first on nonviolent forms of protest favored by activists and advocates in the trenches. Listen to what the people harmed by Trump’s policies want to see as acts of solidarity. Hold your conscience in as high esteem as you do electoral strategy. There may be more effective ways of airing your grievances, so spend time studying tactics and talking to organizers.

But if you’re faced with an unexpected moment to hold someone powerful accountable, I hope its King’s voice you hear in your head, and not a pundit’s who has nothing to lose.
