😅 should I give Pokemon human names, even though there aren't any humans in said world, or...? Cause sometimes I can't think of anything else to nickname a Pokemon, and it just sticks regardless.

Alright bipolarians

I have some news: I got rediagnosed as schizoaffective bipolar type disorder (however you’d like to say it, that’s how my therapist says it personally). I no longer feel comfortable using the “actuallybipolar2” username because of this.

Would you rather I:

A. Abandon the blog and leave all the info and stuff on

B. Rename the blog something else and continue on

C. You literally couldn’t care less what I do, it doesn’t matter to you

I haven’t been answering anything since the rediagnosis was being discussed because I wanted to see what my doctors had to say, and then no one told me they actually went through with it so… yeah. It’s been a while.

Regardless of what happens to this blog, I love and care for each of you, and want you to take care of yourselves.

Sooo today we went in-depth more into counterculture of the 60s and

We did mention the Monkees

Butt it was disappointing and didn’t really do the boys justice as least to my liking

Here’s what went down

1. My teacher Didn’t mention the battle for creative control, or the boys musical ability or acting ability before the show or during

2. And only mentioned Davy to say that he was the “attractive one that got all the girls”(facts tho) and that he has a decent voice

3. They called Micky an okay drummer

4. And not a single mention of Peter or Mike(who we might get back to in the 80s if Yknow)

5. Kinda did nothing to dismantle the rumor of them not playing their own instruments or write their own songs(they kinda reinforced the instrument one)

They did give the boys some credit…but not really want they deserve.

Idk I get the lack of depth since it was supposed to be a one time mention but still… I think we can do better

I think cis people should also be their gender of choice. Like, if you're a man, you should get to really enjoy being a man- have fun with it! If you're a woman, take the parts of womanhood that really deeply make you happy. If being a little androgynous or ambiguous or hidden is the part that really makes you happy, you don't have to be trans for that. If you wanna lean really hard into being femme or masc- do it! You have one life in your body, do what makes you happy. Ditch the stuff you don't like.

My sinister queer agenda is I think that everyone should be the gender they like in the way they like it.

this was in response to a now deleted tweet by an adult about disney channel "falling off" and I think about it all the time when people my age complain about teen media

Hot take and not to be a killjoy or the shipping police but people treating Viktor or Jinx's aroace headcanons as if they were canon is not the revolutionary take people think it is.

Headcanons are always all right but we have to acknowledge that they are somehow damaging when they apply to stereotypes. It might not be the case for everyone but most of the time people unconsciously assume that disability/mental illness=asexuality. These headcanons erase the freedom of attraction from people who are already seen as unable to have sexual/romantic experiences/desires, when it's completely untrue and harmful.

You can headcanon Viktor and Jinx as aroace, but I have seen people changing their minds once Viktor is no longer disabled (s2 with all of his other forms) and Jinx is no longer as mentally ill (alternate universe Powder). And it speaks wonders of how people see these characters.

"I never thought about Jinx being able to feel romantic/sexual attraction until s2!" To believe she's actually only capable of that when she's not "damaged" is incredibly disturbing. Especially since Jinx has always had a bit of a flirty personality too.

"I've always seen Viktor as asexual, I don't know why!" That's fine. You can headcanon him as ace. But I believe there is a reason behind it, most of the time, if for some inexplicable reason the "vibes" of the disabled character are making you think he's ace.

I say all of this being aroaspec myself, by the way. Headcanon all you want but going to people's posts commenting how "it's weird for you that they have romantic/sexual plots when they're clearly aroace" is not a win at all. It's a headcanon, after all, and it should be treated as such, and that's fine. But it also is damaging to spread stereotypes like these.

Of course the disabled character is asexual. Of course the mentally ill character is aromantic. It's not as revolutionary as you might think, tbh.

Fandom is not activism and it's all right to have any headcanons you want BUT some of them are filled with damaging stuff and perhaps we should look into ourselves more before treating these assumptions as something canon.
