Soap with Body Dysmorphia. It’s pretty common with people who workout that they develop body dysmorphia. Soap is one of them.

He can’t seem to get his muscles bigger. To him, they look so so small, but to others, they are the biggest they’ve ever seen! But he doesn’t believe so, he thinks he can get them bigger, and he will keep working them until he can’t move them.

He thinks his muscles are imbalanced, he can’t see them as identical, he must figure out how to change it, and if that means hours in the gym after work hours, dropping weights and his wrists becoming stiff and achy, then so be it.

His body doesn’t feel right. And people start to notice.

They start to notice how he avoids mirrors, and if he doesn’t, he will stand and stare, flexing, spotting tiny differences and getting angry with himself.

Gaz finds him in the gym at an ungodly time, but can’t seem to get him off the barbells and dumbbells; so he gets Price. Which in turn wakes up Ghost.

Cue lots of breaking down, “I’m not the perfect soldier” “you don’t need to be perfect son.”, lots of tears, and lots of hugs.

Do you sleep?

What's that.

I don't know that.

I just got finished telling a story at a party and git told by a girl that she “could never be the center of attention like that. But if [I] like it so much I should try doing improv.”

She said it kindly but was it a subtle burn XD

If somebody gave these to me & started to read poetry, I would probably just stand there & start to sob ❤

“You shouldn’t self-ID as ADHD/autistic, you’re turning a very real mental condition into a trend” Ok then stop saying delulu. Stop speculating on which cluster C personality disorder the criminals you hear about on the news have. Stop saying “schizoposting” and “acoustic” and “is it restarted?” Stop using “psycopath” and “sociopath” as catch-all ways of calling someone a bad person. Stop saying “the intrusive thoughts won” when you bleach your hair and then turn your nose up at people who suffer from very real, very scary urges of physical/sexual violence. Stop saying “I’m so OCD” as a way of calling yourself neat. Stop treating BPD/ASPD/Bipolar as inherently abusive. Stop saying “OP I am living in your walls” without tagging for unreality. Stop diagnosing complete strangers you’ve never met on r/AITA with NPD.

You first. If you don’t want our disabilities to be treated like trends then stop belittling and minimising them. I’ll NEVER judge a person for trying find labels for their symptoms when an apathetic, racist, sexist, ableist healthcare system refuses to. But I will absolutely judge a hypocrite. Which a lot of you are

"This fic was ai generated—" Cool, so lemme block you real quick

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).

Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.

you know he would have been one of Those kids

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024

EVERY SINGLE DAY there are MILLIONS of characters in their late 20s who get falsely accused of being father figures to teenagers when in reality the description of "weird older cousin" or "step-sibling that moved out before you were born" is 1000000x more apt

People I met for a few moments that live in my head forever.

one man's hyperfixation is another man's blocked tag

"he would not fucking say that" but you ever be looking at fanart and suddenly its "he would not fucking have abs"
