Twinkle twinkle, blade so sharp

Please just rip out my heart

Blood drops so red drip down my leg

Hey look at that I’m human again

Twinkle twinkle blade so sharp

Pretty please just stop the hurt.

People change. There’s no warning and they usually don’t care if it hurts you.

What they don't mention about #growingupwithstrictparents:

- The resentment that begins to build up and damage your relationship with your parents because your missing out on being a kid.

- The self destructive tendencies that develop when you get your freedom.

- Extreme Behaviour that can be dangerous because you feel as if you have to catch up on all the life you have been missing.

- A constant sadness that your never going to live life enough.

- Developing anxiety over doing things as simple as riding the bus.

- Massive issues with authority.

- Fear of commitment because you feel as though it is going to tie you down and take away from your freedom again.

etc…

‘ - Fear of commitment because you feel as though it is going to tie you down and take away from your freedom again. ‘ This is is me in a nutshell

All of this.

Feeling like you’re useless when you’re not doing something productive.

sneakymedulla

never being able to stand up for yourself, because of your inherent fear you will be severely punished - even if you are in the right

feeling you are never right, even if you are

caving easily to abusive situations, because you grew up learning how to be controlled, that it was “wrong” to exercise power, that it was “wrong” to defend yourself, and not knowing anything about self-respect or having self-esteem

second-guessing yourself nonstop

hiding your entire life from your strict family - even if it means they go to their deathbeds not knowing what has happened to you, because it will just mean you earn only their disapproval or disgust.

non-stop self-hate

non-stop paranoia

thewikigirl-blog

-feeling like you have to “prove” yourself

-never feeling good enough

-developing insecurities that eventually grow but stay hidden because you’ve been told that maybe asking a question a few times extra just to be sure everything’s ok is “weird”

-being afraid to make friendships, reach out, or go out because your afraid of doing something wrong

-always being afraid that someone is mad at you

-getting criticized for years on end then getting questioned on all sides as to why you’re so negative about yourself

I’m glad I’ve been outgrowing a lot of this, and moving out worked to be a good thing between me and my parents.

To all of my friends, this is the reason why I do the things I do

tealfruit

I don’t always relate so heavily to these kinds of things but damn if I don’t feel 99% of these

hemulpajun

Or as in my case, having to constantly defend yourself and fight back against neverending emotional abuse —-> finding it difficult in adulthood to hold yourself accountable for things you actually did fuck up AND always having to fight back a hair trigger zero-to-sixty attack reaction in a confrontation or conflict.

and-the-beat-goes

God damn.

There is a difference between strict and abusive, no?

itsmjohkay

There definitely is a difference but when you grow up with strict parents, it’s hard to draw the line and separate the two.

bethebeastwithin-blog

I had strict parents growing up. It isn’t that hard to know the difference.

The past is packed with monsters! Behemoths by the dozen! Let’s meet these fossils! (and their less colossal modern cousins)

skunkbear

Earth’s ancient history is full of giant versions of modern animals. Evolutionary forces (competition for resources, changes in climate) pushed these species to become incredibly large. And I’m not just talking about giant dinosaurs - there were huge mammals and marsupials too.

A lot of these giants lived in the Pleistocene, an epoch stretching from around 2.5 million to 11,000 years ago. Mysteriously, the extinction of many of these animals coincides with humanity’s arrival as a dominant predator.

Watch a video / listen to a poem about these prehistoric monsters.

I love me some prehistoric megafauna…

We can thank some of these extinct giants for the evolution of the avocado. Don’t believe me? Watch this:

A random guy paid me a compliment and why it was okay

So, in starbucks today, a random guy came up to my and told me I was very pretty and nice eyes.

And, as a feminist, I was okay with it.

Because he did it correctly.

He stood four feet away from me and started out with “excuse me” and waited until I nodded before approaching. He then introduced himself and we shook hands and then he gave a compliment and went on his way.

He didnt catcall. He didnt harass. He didnt use inappropriate language. He asked for permission.

Take note, gentlemen.

thisisravenroth-deactivated2016

i just loved the fact that he actually WAITED for her CONSENT

BEFORE approaching her

and not only that

he didn’t sexualize her

i mean

finally, someone gets it

avi17

I feel like this is important to share, because we get so much shit from guys who are like “so what, we can’t EVER compliment a woman without it being harassment??” No. No one said that. I have received compliments and I have received street harassment, and I promise you I can tell you which is which.
