last night i got home kind of tipsy and very much in tears and my mother told me the force you exert to keep someone in your life is proportional to the force with which they will leave your life. if you have to fight tooth and claw to keep them, their leaving will be just as hard, just as harsh, and just as definite.

Having thoughts, TLDR; explaining that Practicing Gratitude is just about learning to notice good things and retraining your brains focus area would be more helpful than simply saying "be grateful!"

I think a lot of the issue people have with being told to try like, gratitude journaling is that when people suggest it they never seem to give a good explanation?? Added to the fact that "self-care" and therapy terminology have been monetized, social media focuses on people's sanitized life highlight reels, and hashtag blessed out-of-touch influencers, and the frankly irritating Pinterest Perfect quotes and journals. I mean. There's just a ton to sort through there.

And like I've tried the gratitude thing!! And I know it's backed up by research!! But when you're in the depths and someone says something about being grateful, it is SO hard not to hear all the echos of "be grateful it's not worse", and the past shame of being cast in the light of "so ungrateful" when you're just having feelings and being upset about something, ya know?

But it finally clicked for me when I stopped using gratefulness language?? Because I also feel like that can be limiting, at least for me. The POINT of the whole exercise is to train your brain to notice good things around you, because obvs ur gonna be in a bad mood if all you notice is the bad!

Obvs it's taken a lot of work in a lot of areas to be at the point where I am, that life feels worth living more than not! But like, the more little good things you notice, the more it feels worth living. But like the gratitude language like I said just doesn't work for me lol

Especially like, the other day driving through the neighborhood I saw a woman going for a run, and she looked like she was struggling but also so determined!! And that was something that made me feel !!!!!! Like life is worth living and trying for!!

She's someone I've never met and may never see again, but seeing her living her life and trying made me want to keep trying too!

So for me trying to put that into a sentence for gratitude, it just takes the joy out I guess haha. "I'm grateful random neighbor was jogging"?? "I'm grateful I saw my neighbor jogging"???? It doesn't quite translate for me. But I could see it and focus on that feeling of fondness for a stranger, and inspiration to keep trying and that not everything is terrible all the time. Consciously focusing on something like that and letting it take up a big part of your day the way something bad might usually can feel really weird at first, but it's so nice once you lean into it??

My dad just bought a BMW and is known to get a little silly while driving so I sent him this meme

And he replied with possibly the funniest response possible

you know what. sometimes in the panopticon you are both the subject and the observer

Got called a tranny for the first time in my life on TF2 tonight.

It was by a guy about to be kicked for cheating with a one letter off n word in his name, hard R.

I told him his name also sucked and he called me a tranny out of anger (unclear if I am actually clockable or he was just pissed). I told him he was right, good job, though he may have been kicked before most of my sentence got out.

My current emotions on this matter are unclear. However...

Kinda funny that my first emotional response was gender euphoria lmao. I love sounding like a tranny, thanks dude

[themyscirah]

If Red Lantern Rankorr has 1000 haters one of them is me. If he has 100 haters I'm there. If he only has 1 hater that is me. If no one hates him I am no longer on this Earth. I hate Rankorr. Fuck that bitch

LMAOO going through my drafts rn and damn I really hated this guy. I mean I still do but idk this is funny to me

I wanna talk about Flip Turner (Tokunosuke Omoteura)/Tokunosuke Hyori

Maybe I'm reading into his character far too much, but hes such a comically tragic character. Sure, Yu-Gi-Oh is nothing but tragic characters. Alot of whom are presented as comedic and/or kind. Just look at the protags.

Yuma himself is no stranger to difficulties and I think thats part of what makes him so likable.

But this is about Flip/Tokunosuke

A majority of people are willing to write him off as simply annoying. By design hes likely meant to be. However Flip is still a tragic character.

In both the Manga and the Anime Flip blatantly admits that his behavior is a direct result of being taken advantage of by older children, ones that he trusted and even considered friends. And in the Manga the backstory includes overhearing his own Mother speak ill of him to his older brother. She doesn't care what he does so long as he's not bothering his brother who she considers more clever.

These events ruined him and changed him as a person.

Flip, is a boy whos mindset is hinged on the paranoid belief that everyone has ulterior motives. He is reluctant to take people at their word. His actions are a way to take back power over his situation. If he lies and cheats no one can take advantage of him again because hes already ensured his success.

The sentiment that Flip is like this 'just because' is canonically wrong. Flip may come off as an unreliable narrator. He even plays into that in some scenarios. But he admits to his past while under the influence of Number Cards. I genuinely do not believe Flip would have if he wasnt.

Flip has trust issues, seemingly even within his own friend group. Old habits die hard and with a kid like Flip expecting him to 100% switch on a dime into fully trusting people is unfathomable. He pushed others away in the past likely out of paranoia of getting hurt again. Yuma is probably the first person he let himself open up too since the events that caused him to shut others out.

Thats not to say Flip doesn't care about his friends. He does. Especially Yuma who he considers his best friend. He wants to be involved with them. He feels indignant when he isnt. (Seen below - taken from S1 EP25). However Flip is a complicated kid mentally and emotionally because if how he was treated in the past.

At the end of the day Flip is played off for laughs. He's a small impish boy who lies and cheats and has a goofy voice. So its easy to forget that he's the way he is because hes been hurt.

I adore him greatly, I see myself in him. Trusting people is hard when you've been hurt by the people you trusted.

Hes 13, hes acting out. Luckily hes found a group that embraces him, he could have easily fallen further if not for Yuma. I wished the series had of focused on his growth (and by extention some of yumas friends) more. I feel like he (and the others) had a lot of unused potential.

"this character isn't even fat, they look fine" what if i tear you to pieces with my bare teeth and hands

all body types are fine! weather the character is actually fat or not they look fine! they would look fine no matter what! gah! not everything is made to be cookie cutter thin, white, and sexy !!! variety is good dipshit. its how we survive, and this goes the same for character design.

yeah you don't have to be attracted to fat people, your fuckin loss i guess. but to imply that being fat is a natural fault in people's appearance is just really shitty. i shouldn't have to say making fun of people's appearances is a crappy thing to do, and yet i see it time and time again where people think its ok to do so just because "ooooob they did it to themselves" when. even if they did, that does not give you an excuse to be a fucking dumpster person.

[menlove]

some of yall truly use hatred of men in general as an excuse to be transphobic as fuck

and I do not mean hatred of men is bad bc like. I feel it lmfao. but the amount of times yall will just post the most nasty and vile shit abt trans men...... or the amount of posts that'll just randomly add in the "trans" part when ranting abt men for legitimately no reason. like I'm sorry but you're just being fucking transphobic. if you hate trans men and cannot help but specify every single time that you hate trans men and not just men- you are literally being transphobic. this isn't hard to comprehend.

if you can understand how shitty it would be to make a post about how much you despise (insert marginalized group) men then u can understand why constantly emphasizing the trans part of ur hatred for men is shitty

[slides this to you across the table] have i told you about the og love of my life, my favorite gamer boy, my husband, Matt Death Note?

( template . picrew . all art by @strawberrisoulmate <3 )

bonus notes:

implied post-canon

matt isn't a hacker in the sense that he actively has a job; he only does it when mello asks him to.

similarly, mello will occasionally ask my insert to proofread the novels and other such documents he's written. he pays her for this as well, but only because he won't accept her refusal. she doesn't count that as "a job."

technically, wammy's still pays us for being smart orphans lmao

LOOK AT OUR DAUGHTER!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

[eggbagelz]

Hm. Something something everyone immediately shipping newt and hermann bc theyre two white guys who butt heads and are drift compatible despite

A.) Drift compatability not being inherently romantic [fuck i mean look how many characters who are related are drift compatible]

B.) There not being really any romantic chemistry between the two so much as a very reluctant but close friendship and

C.) Ok this point doesnt fit well with the other points im making but them and their ship immediately overshadowing so many other dynamics and such in pacific rim, most notably the bond between mako and raleigh, who DO have both romantic and platonic chemistry AND are interracial
