up thinking about the bonnie and charlie kelly tragedy again. ohh their relationship is so not normal. she loves him in a way that she doesnt realize is selfish she never taught him to read or take baths he probably found out the stove was hot from touching it. bonnie's relationship with charlie is inherently abusive but shes not some mastermind or criminal she is just a very ill woman who doesnt realize when shes being manipulative or when what she calls empathy is actually just fear or sadness for herself.

charlie spent his whole life parenting his mom back and coaching her through her episodes and internalizing her superstitions and compulsions and in the end he didnt break any kind of cycle he just ended up worse than she is. he doesn't speak to her now he never even calls her he hates being around her... hes a dick to her maybe more than she deserves but in charlie's mind it's not about what she was trying to do its about what she ended up doing to him in the end. she depends on him in a way he never could on her. charlie could never be a dad and maybe its because bonnie kelly wasnt really ever a mom to him but also what else could she have possibly been but a mother. so much of her is reflected in him and they are so entirely unalike and he hates even thinking about her but he also won't leave philadelphia because she's in it and isnt it all so sad and strange

ITS LITERALLY THAT AND I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE

UTMV fandom stop romanticizing trafficking, kidnapping, what amounts to basically mind control, and abuse just because it’s your “hot” little blorbo that does it challenge. Failed continuously over and over.

I think the worst part about it is when they use killers masochism to justify the abuse with “well he likes it!”

Pretty soon I predict some people in the fandom may tip to the other side of the scale and make killer start hating nightmare so much and sexualize that too.

Just let bro do one simple thing and breathe without constantly sexualizing him. like would you like it if you start sharing how much you hate your abuser and have violent thoughts about revenge only for someone to claim you want to fuck and have sexual tension with your abuser.

My morning yap sesh about Amir is;

His headphones.

The other day I was looking around on things and I stumbled upon a post of a person who also has trauma and anxiety from abuse that wears headphones, they wear their headphones on one ear for safety and peace of mind and hearing phantom footsteps from.. yeah. And that’s very relatable for me personally, I have this habit as well. Every time I game or listen too music, oop there goes the one ear thing.

As for Amir, consider. Not only his one sided headphones being more a I.T thing but for his heavy trauma and crippling anxiety. He chooses to have one ear always ready too hear anything, anyone or everything for his own personal safety so no one/thing can harm him and to protect himself. So he can have enough warning for himself via sensitive hearing just in case if something does happen again.💔

Hey could you do some headcanons with Adrien haveing a twin sister or younger sister by a year?

Oh, buddy, I am perhaps the worst person to ask! Let's use Eloise for the sister's name.

- Adrien and Eloise have an incredibly, unsettlingly codependent relationship. The emotional neglect led to the siblings fulfilling way more of each other's emotional needs than they probably should have.

- Adrien was Emilie's favorite because Emilie is a boy mom. Gabriel did not have a favorite because that would require caring about the kids in general.

- Gabriel will start to get weird about Eloise in a way that he is not about Adrien, simply because she resembles Emilie more due to the virtue of not having a Y chromosome. YMMV on what I mean by "weird", but I definitely feel like she would get sheltered/kept inside even more than Adrien is. This is definitely a big change for Eloise compared to before Emilie's death, where Adrien was the one given more attention in general.

- Both are fairly academically inclined due to all of that homeschooling, but Eloise is probably put into ballet when Adrien is put into fencing. (Not to say she can't also like fencing, I just think the Agreste parents aren't immune to following gender roles)

- Both are also forced to model, often together. They tend to disassociate in sync, it's a neat party trick! Any commercials/Disney Channel Originals/etc they're in tend to rely hard on the twin/sibling factor.

- I could definitely see a sort of Lyney/Lynette dynamic from them (if you're vaguely familiar with Genshin)

- Adrien is definitely exposed to more physical abuse than Eloise, while Eloise's is usually non-physical. Of course, Adrien has the usual brotherly sense of "I never want my sibling to go through what I've gone through", so he puts up with a lot under the pretense that it will protect Eloise.

- ^ He is wrong.

Luna x Lynn, please?

Sorry for taking so long to answer you.

Anyway, what a funny thing, Lynn x Luna is my 2 favorite ship in TLH.

They have such a funny dynamic, even though I still really like their cute dynamic I can't stop making them a toxic couple. Genuinely, I love it when people make Luna some kind of abuser, it just scratches a part of my brain.

And Luna and Lynn having a wild size difference, also Luna calling Lynn “pup” is just perfect.

Honestly, anyone comparing Lynn to a dog is just right, she deserves being called ''good girl''.

Reminder to everyone who’s ever been hit by a parent:

There is no reason

No matter what they say, there is no reason for it

No excuses

It wasn’t a squat or a brush

It wasn’t to make you concentrate or pay attention

It wasn’t necessary 

It wasn’t needed

There is no reason

im going to sue Roald Dahl for false advertisement and consequent emotional distress damages because, as it turns out, being a neglected little autistic girl who reads a million books at a college level by the time circumstances force you into school (against your parents wises) does NOT give you any kind of powers at all let alone telekinesis

Was suddenly reminded this morning of how awful (and frankly abusive) my parents are to house pets and how I worked SO HARD to do better by my dogs to the point that I might have swung too hard the other way and spoiled them and like. Man.

There's no reason why almost every single pet I ever owned as a child should have either died to human (usually vehicular) contact, or I would come home from school to find that it had been rehomed (in hindsight, the merciful option.)

Bad enough to have multiple stories like that but like. Seriously. Four cats, six dogs, and one very unlucky bird. Very normal things.

Aiden Jefferson lost his mother when he was a young boy, left all alone with an abusive, alcoholic father.

When he became a teenager, he found an old sealed envelope addressed to him in his mother's handwriting. Enclosed she left him a key to a safety deposit box, telling him about a house she had inherited from an uncle in Bliss Bay, and how when she found out about her terminal diagnosis she put the deed in his name.

That night, Aiden made a plan.

The next day, after school, Aiden headed to the bank and opened the safe deposit box. Enclosed, just as promised, was the deed plus $91,000.

He got on the first bus and headed to Bliss Bay, arriving at his new home around 7 am the next day.

IWCTW!Damian having to relearn how to suppress his stims, because his grandfather doesn’t like it, after nearly 20yrs of learning how to feel comfortable with expressing himself. 

(Clark catching Damian stimming, only for Damian to immediately try to bluff his way out of it, because it’s been months back with the League and Damian’s relearned that stimming is dangerous. Clark starts showing up with potential stim-toys, being super-casual and even framing some of them as requests. Like, “I’ve been thinking about giving something like this to my son, can you test it and make sure it both works and is safe please? Oh no, you can keep that one. I’ll get Jon another.”)

I'm tired. Have a Metal Family headcannon that I don't know how it formed:

(headcannon and rambling below cut.)

cw for mentions of abuse, alcohol/alcoholism.

So... yeah, Gustav's a bad guy. We all know that.

And I have no idea why, but recently my brain just went: "What if he was also abused by his dad, but didn't have the guts to run / abandon his family like Glam did so he was just stuck in that situation" and stuff of that caliber, how because it's how he grew up it's how he ended up treating his kids and his wife.

And that the only reason Mary stayed was because they grew up together or something (and were good friends) so she still wanted to hold onto the sort of hope that he could still be the boy she'd been friends with all those years ago. (with this idea, I just get the feeling they were an arranged marriage, with his parents not KNOWING how close they were as kids.)

And honestly. Fuck, I want some content of that. I don't know why, it's just so... interesting to me? To think about young Gustav, and why he is the way he is now. To get that sort of INSIDE view of his mind.

Also, with this train of thought, he tends to drink to cope. Trying to forget what his father did, despite it being so ingrained in him that he does the same to his own kids.

And honestly, I can see Mary being a real anchor for him, trying to keep him grounded (I could see him being VERY lost without her. emotionally and mentally. because she's the only one who's bothered to stay or something of that sort. everyone else sort of stopped trying to deal with his "bs" and decided he "wasn't worth it" anymore. so she's basically keeping him as stable as she can. still clinging to that little hope and keeping a tiny bit alive in him.)

I can also see some sort of Mary trying to comfort/coax him out of drinking for the night when he's in a calmer mood. (reminding him of previous "hey, it'll be alright" type moments between them.)

etc, etc.

I don't know where this came from, or how, or why.

It sort of got screamed at me by my brain... and now it won't leave, and I am clinging to it now. (not trying to justify Gustav's behavior, or say Gustav isn't still a piece of shit father and husband. just saying this is now something imprinted on my brain. IDK why this was what my brain screamed at me this time, only that it happened and now it's just here.)

Honestly, kinda interesting having HCs about them, seeing as how little screen time they get.

(I mean... the HC is mostly about Gustav... but, still.)

Worst Animated Dad Bracket Round 2

Propaganda:

Oscar Proud: Locks Penny out of the house for missing curfew (something that has led to real life murders and kidnappings) and sends her to Sugar Mama who he knows will abuse her. He’s initially ableist towards his son. And he’s a homophobe

Turner: Is oblivious to Vicky’s abuse and neglects Timmy, in an alternative timeline, he became a dictator because he didn't win a trophy, and if he'd had Timmy then, he would have traded Timmy for the trophy no question. That attitude did not change between timelines. Honestly it's a surprise he even knows Timmy's name.

Eden being the personification of love / God of romantic love / conqsentiual sex / partying / festivals he is also the protector of people who have been abused.

He is the God Amaranthe in my novel but travels the world as a beefy man. Abusers are harshly punished by having certain appendages shrivel up into grapes. He doesn't play. Coincidentally, he is the God of fuck around and find out.

[enbygirlblogging]

do you ever experience a wild moment of sudden empathy for everyone in the world. like yeah i knew a guy who bullied people a lot, and who i really used to hate, but then i found out he got beaten by his stepdad and watched his sister die a horrible and graphic death first-hand, and suddenly the hate didn't come so easy. yeah i knew a girl who abused me for the better half of my life, but looking back, she also definitely had no one in the world who loved her, including her own family. my issues with her are a lot more personal, but i just don't have it in me to really loathe her the way i once did. i've never had a good relationship with my father, but he never had a parent worth looking up to. and i'm not saying any of that trauma excuses being a horrible human being, and i'm not saying you have to forgive everyone who ever wronged you, or even really that you should.

but i guess i'm saying maybe i forgive the people who wronged me.
