Speaking up and educating people on why the most hated life forms on the planet are important and meaningful is a thankless task.

How do we reach out and get people to care about insects and spiders when the average reaction is either "EEWW KILL IT WITH FIRE" or blind panic?

Arthropods are crucial to the survival of life as we know it. Yes, even commonly vilified bugs like wasps and mosquitoes have ecological niches that the world CANNOT do without.

I cannot overstate their importance.

So there is apparently a Tik tok trend for an airport life hack where able-bodied people are requesting wheelchairs to get through TSA and customs faster.

As someone in their twenties who can walk but still needs a wheelchair in an airport because I can't walk long distances or fast with my disability, this trend is very frustrating. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten dirty looks from elderly people or been made to wait for a wheelchair because people assume that I'm fine when I'm sitting down and not moving. Idk. There are a group of disabled persons called ambulatory users who rely on mobility aids while still being able to walk on good days. They are often stigmatized by people's assumptions. Please don’t this! You are making it harder for people who are invalidated on a daily basis for not being "correctly disabled"

[ENTIRE POST IS OOC.]

Sighhhh. This is difficult.

The creator of Gnarpy has done some disgusting things. I won’t be surprised if I get backlash for having this account, but PLEASE.

Gnarpy is a major comfort character to me and I don’t support anything xis creator has said or done in any way. I feel disgusted to like Gnarpy, but I can’t stop being IC as xem because I’ve grown attached.

Once again, xis creator is disgusting. I hope we can set aside this and enjoy the character anyways.

Deepest apologies,

Zio, the owner of this blog.

So... this is a serious post which however may touch the sensitivity of many people, which is why, before reading, I warn you that I will talk about feminicide, harassment and stalking. I also put a divider right under these warnings to prevent someone who hasn't read this first part from reading something and feeling triggered while scrolling.

Today in Italy, after exactly a week, the body of a girl who disappeared together with her ex was finally found. The killer's lawyer (that's still at large, supposedly in AUSTRIA) said that this murder was not premeditated, that he loved her because "he always made biscuits for her". [Do you know where the fuck you can put those shitty biscuits? I'll tell you, up your ass.] The truth was that he didn't love her, he was obsessed with her. He was jealous of her. He was jealous of the fact that yesterday she would graduate while he didn't, he was out of class and would probably never get the degree. He was jealous that she was able to make a life without him. The killer's acquaintances, his family, are filling the newspapers saying that he was a very good boy. Now I have to ask myself something: men always justify themselves by saying "not all men" that "men who do these things stand out, you can see when a man is dangerous". So why, every time something like this happens, the people around the killer always say that he was a "good guy, polite and with sound principles"? Do you realize the bullshit you're talking about? Do you see the inconsistencies or am I the crazy one? You know what else is absurd? The fact that the media continues to use photos of the two of them together, from when they were engaged. It's crazy that they refer to him as her ex. He's not her ex. He is her killer. He is a MURDERER, a fugitive, an outlaw. NOT. HER. EX. It's a horrible thing to say, but part of me wants him to kill himself too, because people like that don't deserve to be in the world and I know for a fact that if they ever catch him, he'll be out of prison after a couple of years for good conduct and, consequently, Giulia will never have the justice she deserves.

Three hours after this news another very similar one arrived: another woman, a nurse, was shot by her husband who was jealous because she was very good at her job and very well liked by patients.

It's not normal. It's not normal that I was molested by an eighteen year old boy wen I was in eighth grade. It's not normal that he stalked me for 2 years. It's not normal that if Covid hadn't divided us I probably wouldn't be here writing now. It is not normal that I should be afraid to go out in my city for fear of die like one of these poor women. It's not normal that my best friend, even though she's never been harassed, is still afraid to go on date a with a guy without first sending me her real-time location. It's not normal that I have to stay awake until she texts me that she's back home safe. It's not normal for both me and her to have a ready message to send to each other's parents in case one of us stops responding during a date with a man or goes out alone at night. It is not normal that none of the men I follow have never posted even a story for the International Day for Elimination of violence against women or even a message of condolence for the families of today's victims. It's not normal for me to have to fear for my safety every time I set foot outside the house.

It's not normal. I'm tired and scared of this world. I just want this to end.

"Not all men", but all women.

They’ve stolen assets, stolen money, and are acting like they’ve done nothing wrong when in fact they’ve put multiple content creators in fucking debt.

I wish I could write...

I wish I could write exactly how my mind worked, visualize how my thoughts pour into my mind and never leave.

I wish I could run my thoughts onto the pages, spewing them into the lines with the exact overthinking nature I think daily.

I wish I could write with 14 streams of consciousness rushing through it, allowing the silence to fade as it does each day my eyes are awake.

I wish I could explain the made-up situations and broken ideas that live within my mind, the unsaid words and begs, and the creative ideas I trap within a box out of fear.

I wish I could immerse those who read my stories into my mind so that the feelings of hunger,

desire,

desperation,

need,

brokenness,

and undoubted joy could be felt on their skin.

I wish everyone could see how my mind spirals into pain caused by my imagination and the truth caused by the love around me.

I would write myself into panic attacks and the hurting ribs you get when laughing too hard.

I would write myself into fairytales and daydreams that break off from movies and television.

It would never be a never-ending silence, an experience I know nothing of.

And I would write the truth about myself;

You; and everyone else.

The truth that broke myself into pieces and built it back up again.

Today I learned that "Allahu Akbar" is a phrase expressing gratitude towards Allah.

I'm so angry that propaganda had convinced me that a common prayer was a phrase only used by terrorists. I know it's not my fault, but I'm still angry.

Imagine Christian terrorists saying "Praise the Lord" as they attack a non-Christian country, and Christians in that country face more violence as a result and "Praise the Lord" becomes a terrorist chant. An innocent praying Christian gets killed because he said "Praise the Lord". A woman with a cross necklace gets "randomly selected" by the airport security because of the terrorist attacks that she wasn't even involved in. Christianity represents being respectful, but people associate it with terrorism. The attacked country's military bombs Christian countries to prevent more terrorist attacks.

Remember: You are not immune to propaganda.

Regarding Sun's mental issues.

TW/CW: serious topic regarding mental health, depressive psychosis, mentions of various self-destructive behaviours which are symptoms of depressive psychosis.

Please, remember to be compassionate and understanding because it's really delicate and serious topic. I don't want to bring hate. I'm here to bring some awereness.

I know that I've talked about this already but I wanted to state all of my thoughts on Sun's mental issues in one post.

More specifically I wanted to talk about the fact that people were too harsh towards Sun during his "going solo after Eclipse" arc.

I believe that Sun was not only on a verge of mental breakdown but he also had psychotic episode. I don't know how many of you know what psychosis is that's why I wanted to make this post to bring awereness to this type of problems.

I also believe that killing Bloodmoon triggered Sun and he ended having a psychotic episode. But let me explain firstly that I believe that when Sun was killing Bloodmoon, he most definitely had PTSD and he relived that moment when he banished Eclipse from his head. I think Sun had PTSD during that moment with BM because of how similar were things BM said to Sun to the things Eclipse told him then. That's why Sun aimed straight for the head because it's something he's doing without thinking like we could see in many gaming episodes.

Some time after Sun killed BM psychotic episode started. And now you need to understand that when someone has psychotic episode it's not their fault and it's not like they can stop it. There wasn't anything Sun could do to stop having psychotic episode. The true problem is that no one helped Sun. Or to be more accurate "the help" of others wasn't exactly the help Sun needed at such hard time he had.

I also think that it wasn't the first time Sun had psychotic episode but this one was definitely the major one, maybe even the biggest one he had. And I understand that others don't have to know what exactly they should do during situations like that if they encountered it for the first time (the first time when they could realise that there is truly a serious problem here with Sun).

That's why I'm not that mad at Lunar or Moon (but Moon could do better than he did). I'm more angry at people who kept saying that Sun should've known better or should've listen to Moon or shouldn't have been angry at Lunar. Because Sun didn't know better at that time, Sun couldn't listen to Moon at that time, Sun couldn't do anything about being angry and agitated which he expressed it all on Lunar at that time. He couldn't do anything about all of this during psychotic episode and definitely during such a major one. Because it doesn't work like that.

You may think that saying that Sun had psychotic episode is a stretch but he had Bloodmoon's hallucination among many others symptoms of psychosis. And I strongly believe that Sun has a depressive psychosis. Many symptoms are there, such as:

agitation

anxiety

persistent low mood (in Sun's case he's more irritated than sad as we could see in many episodes)

lost of interest and pleasure in activities you used to enjoy (we could see that Sun isn't as happy with his daycare attendant duties as he used to, sometimes we could see that he wasn't enjoying playing games even the ones he really likes (it's important to remember that Sun is hiding his depression so it's not always easy to tell that he has depression)

sleeping difficulties (we know that hallucinations keep Sun awake at night and we know that he has nightmares very often if not daily)

having less energy than usual or being more fatigued

changes in movement, such as increased restlessness or a sense of being slowed down

difficulty concentrating or making decisions

frequent feelings of worthlessness, helplessness, self-hatred, or guilt

frequent thoughts of death, dying, or suicide (the last one is only implied for now)

hallucinations (Bloodmoon; I also believe that Sun has hallucinations related to July 16th incident)

delusions or believing things that aren't true (mostly I think that Sun truly believes that everything is his fault and he's evil; it's also implied for now but it isn't a far fetched statement).

I also think that Sun has a Major Depressive Disorder with mood-congruent psychotic features because it's stated that in this type of Depressive Psychosis hallucinations and delusions reflect feelings and emotions that often show up with depression, including feelings of personal inadequacy, worthlessness, guilt, and fears about illness or death which fits Sun's current state of mind perfectly.

It's also worth to mention that psychotic episode usually is developing over a period of 2 weeks and we know (more or less, mostly we can assume) that it wasn't a long time between Sun killing Bloodmoon and him going after Eclipse. And also usually person fully recovers from psychotic episode within few months, weeks or days and we know that it is only slightly more than a month after Sun's mental breakdown which he had during psychotic episode.

I also believe that Sun didn't gain depressive psychosis because he killed Bloodmoon, I think he suffered from it since July 16th incident for sure. It was very traumatic event in Sun's life which may lead to developing psychosis among with depression. Because I think that Sun's untreated PTSD after that incident (and also after what was happening with Moon and kill code when they still shared a body) further worsened his mental issues which could led to developing psychosis. But if Sun mental issues still will be left untreated it may lead to developing bipolar disorder. Because untreated psychosis may cause Sun to have worse episodes each time. It doesn't always end up with one having a bipolar disorder but it may end up like that.

Situation is already bad but it can be worse and the worst case scenario is that Sun may end up taking his own life. Many people with untreated depressive psychosis end up taking their own life or with attempting suicide. The risk is very high on such cases.

That's why I'm so scared and worried for Sun. Because the only one who somewhat helped Sun (to some extent) is Earth. But it's definitely not enough. Sun still suffer from depressive psychosis which we know from the lore episode with Amanda the adventurer. Bloodmoon's hallucination still haunts Sun. Sun needs a professional help in my opinion.

It's also worth mentioning that it's not that weird or surprising that Sun never told anyone about any of this because people with depressive psychosis often don't open up about their issues. It's truly on others to help a person with such problem. That's why I hope that with my explanations people will stop blaming Sun for acting like he was during his "going solo after Eclipse" arc because it isn't his fault. He had psychotic episode and that's it. Others such as Moon or Lunar were the ones that should help Sun then but they didn't or they help wasn't actually helpful. I'm not totally blaming them for that because like I said it was the first time Sun had such a major psychotic episode which let them realise that there was something wrong happening with Sun.

I hope that this post will bring more awereness to such issues in general and that people will stop being so harsh towards Sun.

Lastly, I'll say that I appreciate the work both Davis and Reed are putting into depiction of various mental issues in S.A.M.S. and that they're treating it seriously. Also the depiction of Sun having depressive psychosis is very accurate to the point that the symptoms are visible and during Sun's "going solo after Eclipse" arc I could easily see and assume without being afraid it's a stretch that Sun had psychotic episode then.

Love is nowhere (for me)

it’s dark

it’s unseemly

but maybe it’s just right

for a demon like me

the dark is my home

i revel in self pity

and my daily plight

is about how i get by

knowing i am what i am

it is immutable, it can’t be changed

nowhere is everywhere and it’s nowhere for me

all the demons travel in packs yet i am alone

i was created, my master is my self-hatred

i am what i think i am

it burdens me, it is my cross to bear

but the others, they do not care

to them, i am a querulous child

who can’t be bothered to fight

overburdened by the pain of life

if feeling like this is so wrong

why is it the only thing i know?

they scold me, call me weak

i am fighting my battles my own way

why can’t you see?

i suppose the demon will be neglected

and love doesn’t exist

it is nowhere in my life

it can’t be fixed

it really makes you see

that the monster in frankenstein

was merely seeking love and affection

what a crime

we’re all capable of

such a shame it never comes to be

love is nowhere

but especially for me

serious issues thought miscellany: if you are afraid of trans people in women's bathrooms because they are predators, why are you so comfortable with demanding separation by biological sex? if these predators are out there just waiting to creep on people in bathrooms, why are you not concerned for all the boys out there? if public bathrooms are so dangerous why has this not been an issue all along?

#serious topics #transphobia #also yes this an extremely homophobic what-if but the bathroom issue already assumes predatory queers #the point is that it's idiotic if you truly believe that to be fine with potential predators in one space and not the other

Worldbuilding questions to get the creative juices flowing: 34

Theme: Civil Rights (Overall) I plan to make some follow-ups for different types of civil rights timeline societies

Harsh Topic Writing Advice

Now this is a strong subject. There is nothing wrong with writing or worldbuilding about such a harsh concept. Problems arise when we jump into such serious topics with little knowledge and perspective about them, especially when they (or their remains) continue to plague society IRL.

Before delving into civil rights in worldbuilding, especially if the primary conflict is based off of hatred towards demographics (fantasy or not) and/or oppression, you should do lots and lots of research about the topic. I suggest double-down learning on it, whether or not you’re traditionally from a position or privilege in any demographic.

Also learn about the different types of hate or isms, and how they have been represented around the world and throughout history. The perspective of one country can be very skewed, even if it provides a lot of insight. The same goes for one era. Knowledge can always be expanded, and it can be quite contradictory to assume you already know everything about such a heavy topic.

There’s lots of videos, essays, and stuff out there that also explore how topics in media have been covered, DOs and DONTs, great advice, awful examples, as well as amazing examples. I also suggest that if anything feels weird in writing such heavy topics to reference it to other people to see what they think.

Now onto the questions

Is there anyone in society that is oppressed and discriminated against? Who are these people? What demographics have them in this situation? Is it completely out of their control?

What does discrimination usually look like in the society? What is viewed as the extreme? What is viewed as menial?

How is the oppressed group advocating and/or fighting back? Have organization spawned (both discriminatory and civil righteousness) spawned? If so how are these organizations effecting society? Are their any symbols that represent either side or arguments?

How is the oppressors handling the situation? Are people changing their minds? If so at what rate? How common is it? What are truly evil people doing in the time? Are they “fighting” back?

How did one group become viewed by society as better or superior? (Conquered the land, wealthier, religious manipulation, scapegoating) How does this group keep themselves that way?

What successes have happened for civil rights? What failures have happened? Is progress primarily being made? Is progress being reversed? Is both happening at the same time?

Is society post-most problems, in the height of them, or before most changes occur?

Are there other societies nearby or far away that don’t share the same sentiments? (Different civil rights problems, already healed, even worse?) How do these placed effect each other?

Is discrimination reinforced by government? Is government changing to pave way for better civil rights?

What happens to people if they just refuse to abide by the oppression? Is there anywhere to escape to?

How is it viewed historically? Are there any important current or past characters that have relation to the civil rights?

How are civil rights upheld? What would need to happen for them to change? How would society respond to change?

I love comedy/react YouTubers who talk about serious topics, and not in a way that makes fun of them but in a way that’s trying to help those who experience these serious topics. For example Daz Games, in his video where he reacted to a woman who said Depression was all in your head he spoke about his personal experience with panic attacks/anxiety, his friends experience with ADD with(out) medication, and even stood up for those with depression/mental illnesses. They actually try and help others understand. I just find it sweet.
