what do u recommend for me when i wanna kms? (whether its because of someone else or im just having a bad mental health day)

my advice is to talk about it. sharing can help, a lot.

if you don't have anyone you can talk to, you can always dm me.

i'm all ears.

I just started reading the svsss volumes (and re-read them again because A LOT IS GOING ON) but like. This shit is so hysterically funny I don't even know where to begin.

Was no one????? Going to tell me that one of the cornerstone jokes in the damn series is that lbh's adoration for his one and only 'tism person who literally cannot express his emotions to save his life is basically genetic?????????

Was no one???? No one AT ALL going to tell me that Mobei-Jun straight up yeets Airplane at the problem in one of the scenes?????? And that in the most hilarious twist of fate Airplane then unyeets Mobei-Jun not twenty minutes later?????

It's one thing to see people joke about sqq and lbh being unable to communicate but it's on a league of its own when you have to read HUNDREDS OF PAGES of sqq's inner monologue be like 'that's my darling boy. my baby. my sugar plum pumpy umpkin you're my sweetie pie' but on the outside he says "get lost binghe" and somehow deems that an effective expression of his affection that lbh will surely understand. 'Why is lbh whining and crying and tugging at my sleeve like a plaintive wife, why is he so angry?' Sqq asks, the entire circus, as lbh is about to fling himself off a cliff for attention--

In short, MXTX is the queer comedian of our generation and nobody appreciates her enough

There's something about like. A certain genre of posts / Online Opinions about insecurity/depression/misery/complaints that are so unhelpful that they wrap right around to being straight up hilarious. and it's the ones that are more or less written to the tone of "Feeling bad? That's gross!" Like, just so you know, don't voice your insecurities/ have low self esteem, because that's offputting! You're gross and weird. Don't be insecure about that, though. That would be stupid if you felt insecure about people disliking you for being insecure. Not attractive. You should be thinking about being as attractive as possible. You shouldn't make comments about suicide, even if you're suicidal! Keep those thoughts entirely to yourself. Make sure nobody around you knows you're thinking about this. It would Make Them Uncomfortable. It's better to keep these thoughts in your head where they can fester. Don't post OR talk to friends with complaints about you feeling miserable or depressed. Tbh people who are sad/upset a lot? Kinda a red flag! You are probably miserable because you're a bad person and you've brought this on yourself. If you don't have friends, it's because you're awful to be around. Easy! Solved the problem for you. And no, there is no nuance to this, got it? So, make sure to feel bad about feeling bad, but don't feel bad about it, because, well, that's just gross. And annoying! You might've wanted your brain rotted thoughts to be Peer Reviewed, you might have just needed to vent- you might've been hoping for some comfort, to get things off your chest. Well, don't! Don't talk about thoughts or feelings that are negative with your friends, you'd be burdening them and that's only meant for THERAPY. #SponsoredbyBetterHelp #MentalHealth like, DAMN. that's so helpful. you're so good at helping. I um really liked the part where these are all hard and fast rules that encourage keeping feelings bottled up and keeping your friends at arm's length. That's really funny of you.

Boy King Seb :D

Soon im rly gonna do it

someone: jkr is horrible-

someone: -which is why you should stan uncle rick rick riordan instead :)

me:

None of you know what it’s like to become the side character of what’s a literal fanfic brought to life and it shows

Hrngh I just. I don't want to argue with people but. Being an addict is not a moral issue. You are not more morally good and pure for never having experienced addiction. You are not inherently bad for being an addict. Like the recovery narrative centres becoming a "better person" or being "redeemed" BUT BEING IN ACTIVE ADDICTION DOES NOT MAKE SOMEONE INHERENTLY A BAD PERSON. You don't need to be redeemed. That kind of dichotomous thinking is detrimental to recovery, setting people up to see relapse as a moral failure, a weakness in character, something they need to repent and self flagellate for. When it's just... not. It's a part of the process.

And even beyond that, if you can't bring yourself to uncouple addiction from morality, you have to see that addiction never happens in a vacuum. To ignore the socioeconomic factors that contribute, the way that addiction and alcoholism intersect frequently with chronic pain, the way that our society is essentially made hostile to people experiencing addiction which then in turn self-perpetuates... it seems needlessly cruel as well as ridiculously individualistic. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps type of mentality. Poverty and chronic pain are significant contributing factors in many cases of long term addiction; it is far more useful to blame power structures that allow people to remain in poverty, their pain untreated, the inequalities and failed safety nets, disregard for vulnerable populations, all amounting to social murder. Choosing instead to place blame and vitriol at the feet of addicts is unhelpful at best and frankly malicious at worst.

Hey everyone back on another episode of why the fuck is my mother like this?

thinking just a bit too hard about how the added depth given to tifa and aerith's friendship only increases the weight threatening to crush tifa after the forgotten capital, she already had so much to carry on her weary shoulders, she's going to have to carry even more when mideel happens, and it doesn't even stop after meteorfall, ohg od oh i love her so much i

it is really crazy to me how ignored linda is in fanworks when i personally think shes great. and u cant even blame it on the lack of information either bc we know maybe 2 more things abt rosemary than linda. also insane to me how ppl are devoted to jack/rose like god himself made it but don't even talk abt how sad felix and linda are. like. Make felix gay or whatever if you want this isnt really about that (altho i do think hes often simply made gay bc ppl dont wanna care abt women + see a struggling married couple in the 70s for reasons completely outside of sexuality with no children and assume everyone involved is gay. Anyway), but like can we stop pretending he didnt care abt his wife .......... yeah sure its funny to make jokes abt him being into men or being bicurious and shit but theres a lot of canonical evidence to support them loving each other very much, and tbh i find their broken little fucked up marriage interesting. he wrote a SONG about her man it's just as agonizing as learning rosemary wrote songs about her husband for showstoppers.

idk maybe im crazy but i simply think its good character writing that gets overshadowed for the sake of lgbt headcanons when, like, their marriage is failing because of felix's addiction. the walten files is largely a story about addiction and how explosive and damaging it can be to addicts and the people around them.

i can count the days i’ve been physically well in the past 6 months on one hand, and it literally maxes out at 1.5

yelled at for posting abt free palestine on facebook lol. unprompted also. ok no i've stopped considering that i have npd or something bc now i know without a doubt that i am indeed a better person than all of them ^_^

never going to lose my anger about rick riordan saying his characters are “too strong” to have ptsd. it makes me so mad

ONCE AGAIN:

“Do not ever engage with The Bad Fiction Things for any reason because interacting with it automatically reflects who you are as a person because it means that this fictional, not real thing is actually you” IS DIRECTLY. ANTITHETICAL. TO RECOVERY. FROM THE THING. THAT I SUFFER FROM.
