People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person

Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs

Eridians have a full name that they introduce themselves with and use formally, and it’s very long because it includes details like their occupation, role in society, and their lineage. And, once Grace is on Erid, it’s decided by Rocky and the Eridian officials that Grace needs a full Eridian name, because it’s odd to just call him Grace in certain situations. It is easy to figure out part of his new full name, adding in teacher and savior of the stars, but the lineage bit is a little tricky. Grace was never particularly close to his parents so that doesn’t feel right, and he doesn’t feel like attempting to translate their names into Eridian. In the end, for that section, he just adopts parts of Rocky’s and Adrian’s names because that’s really his new family.

On his first excursion out of his biodome and through Erid (because of course they made him his own xenonite suit) with Rocky and Adrian, they get approached by many other Eridians who have heard of Grace. They coo some and praise the human, and add a congratulations to Rocky and Adrian at the end. It takes this happening a few times before Grace picks out the Eridian word for baby or child in the congratulations, and he’s ECSTATIC, making the assumption that his friends must be having a baby. Of course, he has some questions like “Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” and “Why does everyone know but me?” and “When will they be here?” and “Actually, how do Eridians reproduce?”. During his barrage of questions, Rocky and Adrian are speaking to each other in low tones, trying to figure out the best way to tell Grace that the name he uses for introductions and official matters translates to Grace, Child of Rocky and Adrian, Teacher and Savior of the Stars.

The other Eridians figure that thirty Earth years and then some is awfully young to tragically no longer have parents, and it’s very kind of Rocky and Adrian to take in a child of an alien species and raise it as their own. Especially since Earthlings don’t seem to take good care of their young, sending them into space.

Rocky and Adrian: We’re adopting!

Grace: That’s amazing! So who’s the lucky little pebble?

Rocky, showing him the Eridian equivalent of adoption papers: You.

(having a good week) that’s right. the goal is to increase my baseline. make the spirals shallower until they spin lazily on the surface of the water, lose their suction. im not trying to fix it all at once, im trying to incrementally improve my way into something tolerable. and once im there maybe i can shoot for good

ADHD affects how I experience time, not how I experience attachment. I love you. I miss you. I just don't realize how long it’s been since I last said that, let alone messaged.

I understand that most normal functioning brains need regular engagement to maintain a bond. Absence doesn’t diminish my affection. My silence isn’t neglect or disinterest. It’s time blindness and object impermanence. The contact gap is purely neurological, not emotional. Thank you for being patient with my inconsistency and holding a seat in your heart for me.

happy first day of pride everyone

[eldritchbauble]

A trend in the "nobody cares about me" crowd that they probably don't want to hear about but needs to be said anyway is that maybe sometimes people do care about you, you just won't let them.

[eldritchbauble]

If you alienate everyone close to you by demanding their time and energy but still complain that nobody cares about you because they aren't doing enough, that is actually a you problem.

[eldritchbauble]

Until YOU internalize what healthy love is, you won't feel loved no matter what anyone around you does. And in the process of yelling about how unfair it is you're harming the people who actually give a shit. Sometimes.

[eldritchbauble]

And this obviously (but stating anyway cuz Tumblr) isn't everybody who feels like nobody cares. But it is a trend I have seen in numerous people. It is, kinda, hard to care for someone if they're aggressive and hard to be around on a chronic basis.

[eldritchbauble]

It's disordered behavior, too, but that doesn't mean you have a free pass to lash out at people. It is your responsibility to evaluate reality vs. your trauma in relationships and not make it other peoples' jobs to emotionally regulate you for you.

[eldritchbauble]

OH, ALMOST FORGOT, ALSO VERY IMPORTANT:

While relationships should be a relatively equal amount of give and take, you doing things for others that they never asked for nor expected of you and then being angry when they don't give 150% back is also a problem. It doesn't mean you're a nice person who's selfless and always giving to others. It means that you're not practicing healthy boundaries and you need to learn that Being Useful doesn't make people love you any more. If you unbalance the scale it isn't fair to come back at people with resentment when they practice healthy boundaries, i.e. respecting their own needs and limits and not centering you in every part of their lives.

I actually highly recommend looking into codependency if this is a thing for you.

[eldritchbauble]

VIOLATING YOUR OWN NEEDS AND BOUNDARIES DOES NOT MAKE YOU LOVABLE; YOUR RESENTMENT IS A BURDEN TO OTHERS.
