HEY RPC ! sometimes people get bored. sometimes bored people do stupid shit, like spread hate, gossip, make stupid lists, burn blogs, other numerous things that do not, uh, spark joy. but no worries, because i have made a list here of things that you can do INSTEAD of spreading hate, drama, and causing people pain.
have you heard of plogging? plogging is like jogging ( or walking. ) except while you do it you pick up some trash off the side of the road! good for you, good for the trees, good for the air, good all around.
go for a walk! it’s great! air!
pet your dog / cat / chinchilla / guinea pig / hamster / bunny / etc. pet your fish too if you must, though they might not like it.
read a book! there are so, so many. literally so many books.
if you’re struggling yourself, go to psychologytoday and find a therapist that works for you
send some people nice messages to make their day happier, reach out to some friends, check up on people you haven’t talked to in awhile
have you tried pinterest? it’s freaking awesome. you can spend hours there.
write your list, your negative thought, your hate, let it exit your body onto paper and then when you’re done, read it, have a moment where you debate “is this me? is this what i want to put into the world?” if it’s not, burn it! fire is fun. fire is great. ( small fires, not big fires, one is fun and one is illegal and dangerous, anyway. )
if it is something you decide you want to be known for, i would recommend talking to a loved one, professional, or furry friend.
take a shower / bath WITH CANDLES, aromatherapy! fire! relaxation!
if you believe that someone is genuinely, truly a threat to this community and this world — report them to tumblr staff. it is not your job to play the town crier, it is not your job to “warn” people. you will only do further damage. if you feel trapped, if you feel alone, if you feel victimized — your feelings are still valid, and you should talk to someone. get to the root of it. do something that makes you feel better and get the help you need, it’s important.
you probably have a park or forest preserve near you, you should check it out. nature is really pretty.
clean things! it’s oddly therapeutic.
watch the great british bake off.
make random as fuck positivity posts about random as fuck things and put some GOOD things on the dash!
go reblog promos / talk about / spread the word about people / blogs that YOU love and YOU think are doing A GREAT JOB and you want people to know about, that’s the list i wanna read.
literally 800 other things that involve taking care of you, your people, your world, and those around you and won’t bring unnecessary pain, anxiety, sadness, etc to others.
