What is like to be a kid?
What is like to run around outside?
To have a colorful imagination?
For life to not be an unstable ride?
To not be tainted by those with selfish ambition?
When you’re five, are you still a kid?
Did you get to just have fun with friend?
When you’re six, is that not the start of your descend?
Not having to worry about meeting one’s end?
When you’re 8, does life still feel great?
Were you able to live outside constant fear?
When you’re 9, are you not held down by weight?
Never wanting to disappear?
When you’re 13, are you still able to smile?
Able to walk without guilt?
When you’re 14, can you still make life worthwhile?
Existing without feeling your world tilt?
How do I be a kid?

Idk how to put that without sounding like a pretentious bitch that I am, but. Dealing with your trauma doesn't mean you'll become a glowing ray of sunshine or forget every unpleasant event in your life? Like, PTSD isn't when you know where to hide during a shooting, only when you have a panic attack over champagne bottle popping. Being able to answer a direct question about the traumatic event is a good sign. Looking into a pattern doesn't mean you're tRauMAtiSEd only that you've learned from past events.
All of this goes double for fictional characters. So. How about we stop acting like Fifteen is in the same mental place as Fourteen during his WBY meltdown?

Random question about the “they should make persona for people who like good games” post. Do people think the persona series is that bad? I know they aren’t perfect but I wouldn’t call them bad games.
I had a wholeass essay written out before i realized im too tired to make it sound coherent. AND my only experience is p 4 and 5, so my opinion on it means jack shit. All i can say is that the most recent titles suffer from bad writing. (And repetitive gameplay, but thats a different issue). Be it poorly written characters and dialogue, or poorly written interactions and plot, it is hard to take some of the stuff in the more recent games at face value. One could argue that that just means the game is subpar, not necessarily bad, but thats subjective; bad means different things to different people. And i say this as someone who thinks this game is Not the best but still found it incredibly engaging and entertaining.

im a smidge drunk and i think this job ending fucked me up worse than the games one? At least with the games one i had constant visual evidence that that company didn’t give a fuck about anything other than profits and was super willing to grind me into dust, but this nonprofit job had unlimited PTO, the longest and nicest trainings ive ever had, and the work was genuinely not very complicated or stressful. and they still let me go with zero warning whatsoever and not even a whimper that anything could be wrong. bc while the current campaign was doing Bad, there was a really clear reason to point to (the war). and when i was let go my boss was still talking really hopefully about a major donor who hadn’t given yet, all the new grants we were going to pursue, and how our reserve and investments were still doing well. so what the fuck. was my $55k a year really the fucking breaking point for this four mil a year nonprofit. i am still so so so anxious that my old boss is secretly going to give bad reference letters bc this still makes no sense to me

searchengine dot com clicks search bar typing "how do i make peace with the fact that i am living a life that is the situation i was terrified of ending up in as a kid. how do i make peace with the fact that my younger self would've killed themself if they saw where we are now because the only reason they stayed alive was for a dream that has been relatively recently rendered impossible forever. how do i continue to pretend that i am just the same as everyone else and a-okay when i feel like i need to scream for help nearly constantly. how do i make peace with a situation that makes me feel nauseous to simply think about and remember i exist in."

also weird think abt how see so many people say "am nonverbal but can still hear you !!!" like that cool !!! but uhm .... kitty cant . why is "still able hear !!!" this like ,, save grace thing . like you apologize not speak by able understand people .
because issue aware issue process any sensory input and just need for very intense sound cancel or else bad meltdown kitty cannot hear ,, and even if COULD hear what say many times not even understand unless use simple language ,, get confused too easy and am lost in own head very much . am lesser because ? do need apologize because ? won't do .
i nonverbal and no cannot speak and cannot hear you well . and even if could very few people know how talk me .

it's so so easy to wind up with an absurd number of houseplants because when i walk into places and they have a charming little plant friend available for less than 5-6 dollars i say to myself Well that's basically the price of a silly little coffy beverage and i hardly ever get those and plants last a lot longer than a beverage so to my bank account this is just like if i had a moderate starbucks habit. and now i have thirty houseplants.

Fellas is it gay to murder your fianceé so you can lie in bed next to your bestfriend/worst enemy while crying and traumatizing each other for the rest of your lives?
