Look I know this is nothing new to tumblr users specifically but I still need to say it:

I think we should have sex with friends more often. Not just because some of my friends are real hot and I'm jealous of their partners. But most importantly because it's up to us queer people (especially the poyamorous, ace and aro folk) to challenge the preconceived notions about what normal expressions of sexuality and romantism look like. Because who we are already challenges the deepest roots of the way people think about intimacy (that you're expected to have a single person in your life that is your one favourite person and you want to have sex with that same person and nobody else)

I'm real done with the idea that certain ways of expressing care are only for one person in one's life. I hold my friends' hands, I compliment them and yes, I would 'go further' (interesting that sex is seen universally as something more intimate than let's say kissing. When I can think of multiple people with whom kissing would be peak intimacy)

Also it's a much safer way to explore your sexuality than hooking up with strangers from dating apps :] (No shade if you like that though, it's just. With a friend you at least know them enough to know what to expect when you act a certain way)

Also also we don't need a label like friend with benefits. It's just a friend. The fact that one has sex with said friend shouldn't be any different than a 'bake pies with' friend or 'cosplay together' friend. Why is this one action deserving of a specific phrass? (It's because we put sex on a pedestal as an ultimate intimate act. And it doesn't have to be)

it's up to us all, but especislly those that already don't fit the mold, to carve out our own way of experiencing intimacy.

So yeah, if you want to, fuck a friend for me please and tell ne how it goes

NOBODY is excusing or supporting abuse when they talk about how narc abuse isnt real. you are making this up in your head.

90% of the time these people ABSOLUTELY preface first that your abuse wasnt okay and when they start talking about how you shouldnt blame a trauma based disorder for the abuse your abuser did you start freaking out. do you realize how pathetic it is to completely ignore when these people say it isnt okay to demonize a disorder people obviously dont choose to have.

you're blaming the narcissism. you're blaming the abuse on the narcissism. you aren't blaming the person for the abuse, you're blaming the disorder they have for their actions, not blaming the person themself.

As it turns out, the "safer parent" wasn't actually safe because they were complicit in the other parent's abuse. Sure, they didn't hit you, but when you got hit, they didn't protect you either and that doesn't make them safe, it makes them an enabler. Being complicit in the face of abuse is a form of abuse.

Over the last nine years, I've been trying to write a novel about love, fame, and the machine that grinds private experience into public attention. I've given up writing it many, many times. But today, I get to tell you: Hollywood, Ending--my first novel in nine years--is available for preorder now.

It's a story about big stuff--falling in love, living with trauma, navigating the relationship between the authentic self and the performed one--and writing it has often been challenging. But it's also been FUN. After The Fault in Our Stars was published, I kind of forgot how fun writing could be, and this story allowed me to work my way back to true joy in writing, and I'm so grateful for that experience and I really hope you love this book. I am so excited to share it with you.

And yes, you can preorder a signed copy now at http://hollywoodendingbook.com, because I'm signing 82,000 copies of the first printing, because I simply cannot resist the urge to sign books. Hollywood, Ending comes out on September 22nd.

i fear this website will never be ready to acknowledge that children can sexually assault other children

or that the victims of other children have a really hard time working through it because the person who assaulted them was innocent, didn't know it was wrong, and was almost certainly a victim themselves

i just want to know people like me. but there’s like no one and i feel like i’m assumed to be faking when i tell people everything i’m diagnosed with, even though i’m openly critical of the dsm at the same time. i just want to know people like me. it’s so fucking isolating here.

it ' s me and my passive suicidal ideation against the world

[wheelie-sick]

the OP of the post I saw this on has me blocked but I think this is important so I'm going to link it on my own blog

Instagram to alert parents if teens search for self-harm content

Safety campaigners say Meta is "passing the buck" with its new feature for parents using Instagram's teen supervision tools.

a lot of teens turn to social media for support with self harm and suicide when it's not safe to seek that support from parents. throwing notifications about it into the inboxes of parents will only lead to punishment of these kids. teens hiding these feelings and behaviors is a good sign that they are afraid to share them.

suicidal teens don't need punishment, they need support. too many parents think the answer to suicidal ideation is to take away internet access, force their child into a psych ward, or even outright beat them. for a lot of teens in unsafe environments the internet is the only place they can connect with others about their struggles because connecting with people offline is risky.

when parents find out that their child is talking about self harm or suicide online their answer is often anger. "why didn't you tell me? do you not trust me?" anger is the absolute last thing a suicidal teen needs in their life.

most parents are not equipped to approach their suicidal teen about their mental health in a way that is delicate and supportive right out the door. the internet is also not equipped to provide this kind of support but it appeals to a lot of teens because there is a sense of safety with the anonymity of it. when parents have a suicidal child they should feel like they have the time to take a breath and learn some skills for approaching teens about their mental health. panic-inducing messages will make parents feel like they have to respond immediately. immediate, panicked responses will cause harm to that suicidal teen.

it's much better to push evidence-based educational campaigns about the signs of self harm and suicidal ideation and what to do when you as a parent spot them.

suicidal teens and teens struggling with self harm are experts at hiding things. taking away access to online support (whether directly by taking a child's phone or indirectly by making them feel surveilled) just pushes them into a box of isolation- it doesn't stop the thoughts, feelings, or behaviors. those teens won't miraculously be cured, they will do a better job hiding what they're going through. this is why it's far more effective to distribute information on how to spot ideation and what to do if you think your child is experiencing it rather than attempting to take the surveillance "shortcut." surveillance will only result in your child distancing themself from you in favor of suffering in silence which can ultimately be fatal.
