The hero stared at the villain in the confusion. "What are you talking about? I was out of town last week."

The villain furrowed their eyebrows. "Then who kissed me?"

hey dumb mutt since your so well versed in pissing yourself any good ways to get my dog used to holding for me without him noticing

hmmmmm if theyre really good at being pliant then just keep them distracted! and "gift" them treats. hand them their fave tea, soda, coffee, and hand it as if its something nice youre doing. and then if you can sense theyre about to go to the bathroom, ask them to do something else. hopefully since they're just a stupid dog theyll forget and just do what theyre told

let me know how this goes! depending on personality and how forgetful they are it might take some adjusting. but its all about mind games!

one time I used the ben affleck smoking reaction image in the family group chat and my mom replied with the funniest possible response which was: "mommy doesn't know who the guy is???" and that phrase has not left my brain since. I'll see blorbos on my dash that I don't recognize and I'll be like well it seems mommy doesn't know who the guy is.

my mum forbade me to say anything to my dad about the top surgery thing, and it's just hit me how funny it would be if i got it done and didn't tell him and just waited for him to notice. i mean, what's he gonna say? "didn't you used to have tits?"

A lot of pop psychology gets thrown around and since I already have a headache, here's preventing you lot from making it worse.

Love-bombing: A manipulation tactic of increasing affection and grand gestures before or after doing something abusive, specifically to weasel one's way out of consequences.

What it is not: A streak of affection and generosity towards friends/loved ones.

Trauma-bonding: Knowingly traumatizing someone to take advantage of their vulnerable state, to then act like the "hero" or the one who cheers them up.

What it is not: Bonding over similar traumas.

Gaslighting: *Knowingly* convincing someone they cannot trust their own perception of a situation in pursuit of one's own narrative.

What it is not: Misaligned perception of events.

Narcissist: Someone afflicted with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, a traumagenic cluster B disorder, that struggles with self-obsession, paranoia, craving validity from the public, delusions of grandeur, and social disconnection.

It is not: Your rubbish ex that cheated on you.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
