They weren’t lying when they said that as an adult you have to fight for your life to practice your hobbies

[stuckinapril]

They also weren’t lying when they said that when you fail to do so your soul shrivels up inside your body and dies

has anyone figured out how to turn off the thing where you love your pet so much it slides inexorably into grief-borrowing

“For me this glass is already broken. I enjoy it; I drink out of it. It holds my water admirably, sometimes even reflecting the sun in beautiful patterns. If I should tap it, it has a lovely ring to it. But when I put this glass on the shelf and the wind knocks it over or my elbow brushes it off the table and it falls to the ground and shatters, I say, ‘Of course.’ When I understand that the glass is already broken, every moment with it is precious.”

on another note, I would like to refrence my #2 favorite video game quote:

The culmination of love is grief. And yet we love despite the inevitable, we open our hearts to it. When the pyre is spent and you've gathered my ashes, spread them from the highest peak in all the realms. You will do this for me. To grieve deeply... is to have loved fully. Open your heart to the world as you have opened it to me, and you will find every reason to keep living in it.

grief is just part of being human, and a beautiful part TBH.

Curiosity got the better of me and I read a few TADC finale spoilers from the leak and… Oof… OOF…

I dunno if I want to pay to see this in the theatre, I might just wait for the YouTube release.

[beep-beep-im-asleep]

Please see it in theaters if you can. Because no matter what happens, people WILL point to this theatrical release as an example. And...

(One singular vague but major spoiler under the cut)

Do we want them to be saying "See? Everyone knew some dumb internet cartoon couldn't hold up in theaters"? And much much worse, do we want "They tried to trick everyone into watching woke propaganda, but once the internet learned what it was about they all wanted their money back"?

Or do we want to send a message that we DO want more indie projects to get this kind of backing, and we DO want more trans stories of all kinds on the big screen? Even and especially in the current political climate.

It's not just about TADC itself. It's not just about Glitch. This is a real practical tangible thing we can do to send a positive message in a lot of ways and set a better stage for more good stuff later! So if you haven't seen it and do still want to for yourself—and hopefully it'll be better to you than others made it sound!—please try to see it in theaters if you can. 🙏 Convince friends to go too if you can. We have to work harder than ever to combat the backlash the leaks caused.

[emotionsclashagainstemotions]

I often avoid media based on reviews, but I already have a ticket for this one. now I wonder what these spoilers are refrencing?

[t00thpasteface]

related to my previous post: this is my POV on the eternal "it is/n't that deep" debate always going on with everything, as someone who now just goes "cool okay whatever" and leaves when something disappoints me instead of wasting time raging about what went wrong or waiting around for it to get better. i think it's good to have all those crazy what-if thought experiments, but i also think you need to make sure you're not setting yourself up for heartache! be nice to yourself and be nice to other people (as the moral so often is...)

Unironically I think the early to mid 20s age group in America has unbelievably bad consent boundaries on all levels and so much language to defend it but this makes me sound like elon musk if I say it however the commonality of someone who will be like “I had 47 panic attacks and it’s your fault” if you tell them no is insane

[junglejim4322]

I rejected someone and got called “the scariest person I’ve ever met” with so much therapy speak interspersed like alright okay alright okay alright okay

[junglejim4322]

“You just say whatever you’re thinking and I don’t know how to handle it” was verbatim part of this conversation. Also everyone hates to see an autistic bitch

[transhumanisticpanspermia]

When I was in this age bracket, there was a huge emphasis on improving consent culture via graceful rejection, and it's gone by the wayside. Which sucks.

Twice in my youth (once in high school and once in college) I was in situations where I was asking someone out and I could tell they were calculating in their heads the risks of rejecting me, and both times I said, out loud, "you can say no, I wouldn't have asked if I wasn't prepared for either answer." And then they said no. This wasn't some spark of special wisdom I had - I knew to do it because feminist conversations among my age group brought it up regularly. This isn't happening nearly enough anymore.

More recently, I was really glad when we got to "rejection sensitive dysphoria" in my IOP program and it was one of those symptoms where the therapists really emphasized how it affects others. Because it does.

Being someone who cannot handle rejection makes you much more likely to violate boundaries, and yes, that includes sexual ones. Yes, you, reader who has never hurt a fly. If you don't want to stumble backwards into sexually assaulting someone, fix your RSD meltdowns. If you keep them up it's only a matter of time. Because if you're nice enough to interact with, but are known to have RSD meltdowns, guess what happens when your friends and acquaintances need to reject you?
