If you're having a bad day or just want to focus on some self care, here's a little self care challenge:

Make your bed - even if you just crawl back in bed, you'll feel more productive

Brush your teeth and hair - you don't when to style your hair or do anything major, just brush it and brush your teeth!

Text a friend or family member - it doesn't matter what you send, just send something!

Have a cup of water and eat at least 1 meal today - I know it's tough to eat and drink, but your body needs the fuel and energy!

Do one thing that makes you happy or used to make you happy - it doesn't have to be huge, maybe just watch your favorite show or eat your favorite food!

It's okay if you can't do all of this right now, take things one step at a time. You are trying your best and that is enough. I am so proud of you 💛

before you make fun of a person doing something brave and vulnerable like dancing or singing or reading poetry in front of a lot of people:

don’t.

we have to start running a massive PSA campaign to young gay people so everyone understands there is a difference between being a dom and being a top and between being a sub and being a bottom. and also that sometimes you are neither a sub nor a bottom and you're just like shy. we need to be handing out flyers we need ads at every train station spreading the word

[pjharvey]

i was not expecting this to get notes. i appreciate the thank yous and acknowledgments in the tags from fellow shys who top or dom and are tired of assumptions

Quick tangent bc this was so cute

I made crochet stars for the kids at the daycare I used to intern at, right? By the time I get there, the kids are outside playing on the playground. So I pull up and as soon as I get out of my car a much of kids see me and start shouting "Astin's here, Astin's here!!"

As they go inside for lunch, I pass out the stars and the kids out them in their backpacks, go to wash their hands, all that

As I say goodbye to the kids while they're eating lunch, a bunch of them get up, saying they want hugs- then one kid asks for a kiss and all the other kids ask for one, too.

It was the cutest shit ever, I love those kids so so much

A lot of adulthood is shouting “AUGH MY LAUNDRY” hours after you put it in the washer/dryer and running to go fetch it

A lot of pop psychology gets thrown around and since I already have a headache, here's preventing you lot from making it worse.

Love-bombing: A manipulation tactic of increasing affection and grand gestures before or after doing something abusive, specifically to weasel one's way out of consequences.

What it is not: A streak of affection and generosity towards friends/loved ones.

Trauma-bonding: Knowingly traumatizing someone to take advantage of their vulnerable state, to then act like the "hero" or the one who cheers them up.

What it is not: Bonding over similar traumas.

Gaslighting: *Knowingly* convincing someone they cannot trust their own perception of a situation in pursuit of one's own narrative.

What it is not: Misaligned perception of events.

Narcissist: Someone afflicted with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, a traumagenic cluster B disorder, that struggles with self-obsession, paranoia, craving validity from the public, delusions of grandeur, and social disconnection.

It is not: Your rubbish ex that cheated on you.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

Oh... That's what trauma bonding is. Oh.

[magi-creator]

I *also* didn't know that trauma bonding and love-bombing were... that. added to lexicon and course correcting...

it's another kind of grooming, age regardless - you put yourself in a position of power over someone and then exploit their need for intimacy or protection or affirmation

I don't have time for tumblr discourse they're calling the very hungry caterpillar degenerate art over on twitter

[despazito]

good art is when something looks like real life, the more real it looks the more better the art. abstracted figures give my trad children nightmares, one time they were exposed to cubism and couldn't go outside for a week

[persnickety-peahen]

not to like, make things too serious on what is perhaps supposed to just be a funny post but . . .

labelling realist art as the only art with value, and everything else—especially art that was "ugly"—as degenerate was a core part of the nazis fascist takeover strategy that helped pave the way for genocide.

please be extremely wary of anyone spouting this kind of rhetoric.

it not just haha funny the right wingers have no sense of taste—it's literally fascism at work.

So its fine to put you in one. Pleaseeeee. Wow... youre such a bitch... not letting me put into one of two nuanced and essential necessary boxes... you obviously go into the box all those evil bitches end up in

"if you forgot then it obviously wasn't important to you" is an ableist thing to say and i'm tired of pretending it's not

[alliezweihander]

I've forgotten *my own birthday* before. There are several years of my life just straight up missing. In the past I've forgotten silly little frivolous things like NAMES OF LOVED ONES or WHERE MY HOUSE IS. But obviously none of that was important. Fucking awful, ableist thing to say.

“Where are the trans men in history?” See. When you're born a gender that was forcefully married off, who had to live most of their life indoors, when you had to raise children, and had a lobotomy if your family thought you were a tad too odd, it's kinda hard to come out as a trans man now ain't it.

Babysitting a toddler is a lot like being the narration in a point-and-click adventure game. Watching him knock on the doors of empty rooms and saying "hmm. I don't think anyone's in there". Watching him attempt to use [spoon] on [cat] and saying "I don't think those things go together". Watching him throw a cup of water onto the floor and just commenting "the floor is wet now" when he looks up at me to see if I approve.

A customer contacted our team with questions, and then finished their email with: "I am daunted by the complexities and unknowns." I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.
