fyi there is no such thing as “getting back on track” after the holidays because you were never “off track” you were simply living life because you are a human being and you deserve that

why is it that people with big families are like “yeah this is my second cousin once removed’s daughter’s sister-in-law’s ex-husband’s brother’s daughter but we’re basically cousins” meanwhile people with small families are like “yeah i technically have parents who i live with but we don’t really talk so they don’t count”

it's 2022. donald trump has died in disgrace days after being impeached and jailed. my chemical romance's new album is coming out the same day as the new spiderverse movie. the lizzo and janelle monaé collab song is blowing up the radio. lil nas x has a verse in it. you and your partner have time and energy for dates after work after jeff bezos' assets have been seized and distributed to the public in the wake of his arrest for keeping employees in unsafe working conditions.

my sense of humor: getting birthday cards with the wildly incorrect age on it for people

I see this and raise you: getting cards for a wildly different occasion and customizing them to fit the holiday you need

‪Constantly analyze yourself. Figure out why certain things upset you. Question your own motives. Understand your behavior. This creates a pathway for change. Acknowledging why you do the things you do is the first step in shifting out of toxic patterns.‬

So, when I was doing my thesis on whether or not fanfiction should be considered a legitimate genre of literature, my advising professor asked me for examples.  I gave him the generic ones, of course - “Pride & Prejudice and Zombies” is a horror fanfic of “Pride & Prejudice”, “50 Shades of Grey” is an erotica fic of “Twilight" - and that seemed to make him understand what fanfiction is, but not how it’s useful.  So I thought about it, and, after about a minute, I said, “Paradise Lost is basically a fanfiction of the Book of Genesis.  And The Divine Comedy is an epic self-insertion fic for Catholic doctrine.  So, basically, you were teaching us fanfiction last semester.”  I had never before seen a grown man’s eyes widen with such fear, incomprehension, disgust, awe, and understanding.

If you really want to drop that guy down the rabbit hole, ask him which Arthurian legend is canon and which are the AUs.

This was absolutely my take when I saw it was a thing.

But here’s the beautiful additional side effect, and why I think it invokes a rage/ discomfort etc for the people it’s directed at.

In refusing to argue, in dismissing the point you are actually saying, “This is not a legitimate opinion that is worth engaging with”

It is removing the platform and the audience and the engagement that these people are used to.

This is EXACTLY why you don’t debate anti-science creationists. It’s why you don’t debate anti-vaxxers. It’s why you especially don’t debate Nazis.

When you engage and debate you actually do send the message that the argument is worth engaging with, that it is being heard and you are providing an audience and often drawing more people into the debate creating a larger circle.

When you signal that not only do you disagree but that the point isn’t even worth engaging with… well… they lose all that.
