You know when that random guy sexually assaulted Barbie by slapping her behind and she punched him in the face for that and SHE was the one who got arrested? Yeah.

I've seen a slew of mean posts this week that are very "neurotypical/NTs are all xxxxx", and I can't say they're particularly pleasant. Some are downright nasty.

While I'm not looking to dismiss the lived experience of many neurodivergent people, any generalisation post about a group of people as large as 'the neurodivergent' or 'the neurotypical' perpetuates the attitude that it's okay to stereotype a group of people for having historically made you feel unhappy.

Discussion is not the same as belittling or insulting.

For example, I would never make a disparaging or nasty post about people of a certain ethnicity, or people of a certain upbringing, or people of a certain psychological differentiation to myself.

A continued "Us VS Them" attitude and generalisation of a frankly enormous and varied group of people, makes it sound like it's okay to generalise people like this. And it's not the solution. Education and genuine discussion with an intent to learn, are the solutions.

people who say "oh you're aroace? must be nice not having to deal with all that nonsense (sex and romance)" are so misinformed honestly like human relationships are complicated regardless of whether they are romantic, sexual, platonic, familial, etc. like when i get a platonic crush on someone and start giggling and twirling my hair and kicking my feet when they give me positive attention do you think it's any less embarrassing just because my feelings are not romantic in nature??? grow up.

It’s not just the break up, that came out of nowhere. It’s the years of character development seemly ignored and Tommy just dropping him like that. Buck not fighting for him and Tommy. Tommy calling him Buck.

Ok, actually I'm tired of injustice and unfair that I look, At the end of the day I don't understand...

I can follow a little the idea of ​​where it "came", everything, but it's tiring and doesn't justify anything...

The xenophobia and racism that Checo experience is absurd, it would literally be considered illegal in more than one country (Idk which one exactly, but I know there will be a country that dictates this), It's just tiring...

Not only from fans, but from accounts specialized in "informing", "experts" and even from "F1" itself. That's what tires me the most because... Seriously, there are people who justify this??? I would really say, if you think Checo can't living this or deny this, Don't really talk to me and save your discriminatory comment somewhere else, srs.

It really gets to the point where I say... Please, really no hate, I hope that damn F1 realices That his game literally sucks... Really...

I would say (from my POV), that Checo's hatred has reached a point where it is unfortunate to see and people who are not even fans raise their voices for injustice, bc I see that...

I'm really just waiting for the very bomb that F1 formed/created to "explode" and for him to receive the consequences of his actions.

""It's asking a lot" I don't give a damn, I'm a Checo fan, I think you know I'm not going to give up on this...

You know what I don't understand, but actually pisses me off when it happens?

When you start a thread with a new RP partner, and you think everything is going okay, and suddenly they softblock or block you completely, without explanation.

This has happened to me too many times to count.

And yes, I know - nobody owes anybody anything. But, Jesus Christ, Is it really that hard to communicate?

[poetess-trobadour]

I want a taste of older times,

To bathe in remnants of its ease,

Where in the high grass there I lie,

Lulled in by crickets and cool breeze,

Where kitten sleeps in my long sleeve,

Where calf nibbles gently at my hand,

Where I am kin to flock of geese,

There, where in quarry I, young, stand,

As swallows nest in slopes of chalk,

Skies are azure and ever vast,

Where village is alive with buzz and jokes,

Where future hasn't come to pass.

I want a glimpse of simpler times,

To breathe in lungfulls of its expanse,

Where I lean onto the trunk of ancient pine,

Caught up in butterflies' dance,

Where clovers grace my flower crown,

Where Nana shares her lore on celandine,

Where I am ace of mushroom hunts,

There, where I crown me queen of life

That spreads as far as glade would last,

Alight with tender piercing sunrays,

Where dozing city renders stark contrast,

Where yet ahead lie countless days.

I want a hold of better times,

To build in roots of it to weather,

Where best of prime lives outside my rhymes,

For you and I delivered it, together.

spoilers ig i'm just rambling

just saw Amanda the Jedi talk about the 4th season of the umbrella academy and jfc...what the fuck were they thinking writing this

and the sentiment i keep reading and agree with is

they really got a bunch of traumatized characters and said the world can only survive if you erase your existence. and they said this to viewers that connected with those characters and saw themselves in those characters.

and i think that's fucked up.

i'm not saying stories can't be tragedies or have tragic endings. but you gotta chose the story to do that and how you do it.

like i still remember watching the magicians and what they did to Quentin and how that absolutely broke me. because there he is a depressed, nerdy bi character "sacrificing" (it's just basically suicide, it is. they have warning on the episode. and after death Quentin pretty much admits to it) for his friends.

and it didn't just break me. it broke a whole group of people. yes we shouldn't get this attached to fictional stories and characters that we have actual breakdowns over it. but i did. and lots of people did too.

but i think if you turn to your depressed audience and say, face to face, "you'd be better off dying" i think it's bad writing. i don't think it's "oh stories can't have tragic endings anymore?" it's a bad message to have.

i don't get it why writers keep doing this with traumatized, depressed characters that people with, obviously, the same issues connect with. AND THEY DON'T EVEN DO A GOOD JOB WITH IT!!!! like maybe a better writer could've done it in a way that made sense and wouldn't hurt beyond the "i love this character and they died so i'm sad"

stop telling your audience that the world would be better off without them. just don't do that.

and the whole Quentin thing, i'll never forgive the writers because they were so proud of themselves for killing the main character who was just a white dude :) great! so progressive. there was nothing to him more besides him being dude and white. fuck you 🖕

[yoshhiee]

AHAJAHAH WHAT IS IT

[robotspock]

just realized part of why i hate tom and b'elanna together so much is that they're just too similar. watching an episode where she's irritated with seven and says "if she gets in my way again i'm not responsible for what happens" and like damn. really the only other person on the ship who would say that is tom. B'ELANNA BELONGS WITH A WOMAN. NOT A STUPID MAN. PLEASE THATS ALL I ASK

[ivvwwwwwi34]

I will not forgive myself for that meme.

[fella-lovin-fella]

teenagers! it gets better.

tw for mentions of self harm, suicide, drug and alcohol abuse, eating disorders, general mental illnesses.

a message to the teens out there that are struggling and feel like there's no hope: it does get better. one day you won't be in school anymore and you'll realize your grades don't define you. you'll move away from your abusive parents. You'll find friends who genuinely love you. you'll be free to explore all of those interests that are too "cringe" or you're worried you'll get bullied for.

let's get personal. i had very rough teen years. i was wildly depressed and went to extreme, unhealthy ways of coping that just sent me into a hellish cycle i thought i'd never get out of. i started self harming and developed an eating disorder when i was 14. i tried to kill myself when i was sixteen. then when i was seventeen. i was hospitalized six times. i was forced into residential treatment for my eating disorder with the only other option being my mom kicking me out of the house.

my mom was emotionally, psychologically, and physically abusive. my dad was neglectful and poor as dirt. by sixteen i started popping any pill i could get my hands on and stealing alcohol at every opportunity. i got alcohol poisoning (still can't drink fireball). i never thought i'd make it out of my house alive.

but i did.

i'm twenty-one now. i left everyone behind me and i have not looked back. i live with my boyfriend and we have an asshole cat together. we've supported each other through so many terrible times. i have friends for whom my love is deeper than the ocean. and i feel loved by them too. im two years attempt free. i'm still here. i made it out. you will too.

i'm not saying everything will be perfect, i'm not going to lie to you. i still struggle with bad mental health, but i'm better. you will be too. please, please hang in there.



i don't want any negativity in my notes, but if anyone else wants to share their stories i'd love to hear them.
