I've seen this before, but it's been years and it just came across my Twitter in its dying days. The words are from a favorite author of mine, Maggie Stiefvater, and they are the words I most need to hear when it comes to dealing with chronic pain and illness. I didn't need this the first time I saw it, six years ago. I need it now. Maybe you do, too.

See, this is how we know tumblr can't give you a representative sample. I mean, the results so far are clearly...

What you order at a coffee shop

Coffee as black as your soul

Caramel latte cause you’re a basic bitch

Matcha, just to be ✨different✨

A macchiato or just shots of espresso, you’re in a hurry goddamnit

The most complicated thing possible

Decaf sweetness (ie. smoothie, hot chocolate)

A tea, because if Uncle Iroh loves it so much, that’s all the reason you need

Something else (lemme know!)

Massive L to our ancestors for not domesticating the Bear for the ultimate friend

[fortooate]

i sympathize with the post on the one hand but also ‘man we shoulda domesticated bears’ has the same energy as a divorced dad being like ‘i should have married that girl from high school’ when the girl in question was never ever interested and also turned out to be a lesbian frontwoman for an obscure but respected ska revival band

[antique-scarecrow]

posts like these are why I can’t leave tumblr and have ultimately stopped trying

When my husband and I were newly married (and we got married young. I was 20) I was unlearning really shitty ways to act I had picked up from my parents. So when we had a disagreement I would often reach a point where I could tell I was no longer able to regulate my emotions and I needed to stop immediately before I said or did something awful

So I would tell "BANANA!" which meant "we need to stop and have some time so I can calm down before continuing the conversation"

Bonus: it's very hard to stay angry if you just yelled the word Banana out of nowhere

It worked and I would take the time to try and calm down and regulate my emotions so I could respond appropriately

It's not a tool we have had to rely on for a long time but it absolutely saved our relationship and helped me learn to recognise and regulate my emotions better

Just as another of example of how safewords can be used
