This is transfeminism!
ive said it before and ill say it again, self harm is an incredibly valuable grounding technique and without it i almost certainly would have done far more harm to myself than any cutting or burning could have. We need to stop framing self harm as this ultimate horror indication of damage, why is this form of self harm any different than another?
We should be teaching people harm reduction not that self harm means you're broken. I'm sorry if anyone has ever made you feel that way. If self harm makes you feel better, even for a moment, why shouldn't you be allowed to do that? people do shit that harms their body all the fucking time but this one thing is off limits?
I'm edging around the topic because it's almost certainly ban worthy but like, if it helps fucking do it, id much rather you use a "less than ideal" grounding technique (which im already rolling my eyes just typing that) than have no way to help yourself.
I hope this makes sense and helps at least one person, i love you <3
THEY KILLED AMITY???????
you're not allowed to tell girls who are in a terrible place that they're not broken. it's a bannable offense on tumblr.
Honestly, fuck @staff. This post helped save my life and @staff banned her. Fuck you @staff, when ya'll are *anywhere* close to the level of harm reduction that this post provided, maybe then you'll be a real blogging site again
THEY KILLED ESTROGEN BLOOD CHALK TOOO?????
they cannot kill me in any way that matters. Thanks for being here, lovely.
they've been very clear with us on this point: you're not allowed to tell girls who are in a terrible place that they're not broken. it's a bannable offense on tumblr.
I'll do it again.
Do you remember when Amity risked her blog to give love and paid the price? I haven't forgotten.
HOLY FUCKING CRHIST I LOVE MY LIFE

the supplicants of the DSM-5 cult are going to murder me for my opinions about plurality
"pretending to be plural" is frequently an artifact / symptom / consequence of being plural. no singlets allowed! get plural now!!!!!!
like. ok. i know i've talked about this before but i genuinely think that the boundary between "plurality" and "singlethood" is so fucking fuzzy and ambiguous because i do not think a boundary exists. like. ok what do people know about "internal parts therapy" or whatever. god. nevermind ignore that i said that. listen to me.
do you feel like, around certain people, you are an entirely different kind of person? with some people, you are outgoing, excitable, loud, outspoken, confident? with others, you are quiet, reserved, shy, anxious? obviously these do not mean these are necessarily two different people, right?
well, I mean. what the fuck is "a person." or rather what the fuck is "a consciousness" is maybe a better question.
plenty of systems have the whole "i have amnesia and my parts are profoundly distinct and cannot communicate with each other internally" etc etc etc but 1) this is like. a specific expression of a broader phenomenon and 2) this is not the only way to be plural.
a better example than the above is maybe "when I'm at work, I am Literally A Different Person than when I am at home with my wife."
this is something that I think most people would not balk at saying, even if it's nominally in jest or hyperbolic. but like, what makes that not literally true?
if we accept that a Part or an Alter or a Headmate or a Distinct Psyche or whatever you want to call it Does Not Need to be profoundly distinct in the way the "DSM-5" articulates it as, i.e. you can have parts that do not have amnesia and who share some level of awareness, memories, etc, can communicate internally, etc. what determines the boundaries of a Part? In our experience, the most constrained definition of "what a part is" could be defined as "a distinct psychic mode of existence which can be temporarily occupied, and is sometimes occupied based on contextual triggers."
your "inner child" is a part! your "worksona" is a part! when you have a bad day and you hear a voice in your mindspace that tries to encourage you to get up and take care of yourself, that can be a part!
likewise, the voice in your head that denigrates and derides you can be a part. and, if you give yourselves permission, you can try to talk to them.
imo. the biggest "hack" for "determining if you are plural" (fake, everyone is plural) is giving yourselves just. permission to even "pretend" to be distinct. you may shock yourself. you may surprise yourself. you may think into your mindspace "hello, is anybody there?" and you may be surprised to find that sometimes. someone might answer back "yes."
the way we first realized we were plural was literally that we were in a car talking with a friend who is a system and they said to us, "well, if you were separate parts, what would you say?" and then an entirely different emotional state clicked into place and a cheerful and excited voice piped up out of our body and said "WELL, if I ever got to distinguish myself as separate, I would..." before stopping and realizing what she had said.
the thing is that plurality is psychic. it is "psychological." it is, by definition, "all in your head." because every part of your personhood(s) is "in your head." you can play pretend. you can do imagination games. what makes that "less real" than other thoughts in your mindscape? if you pretend hard enough that you are different kinds of people in your mind, you might just literally be different people in your mind. why not? what makes on "personality" or "psyche" or "fragment" real, and another "pretend?" it's all pretend. none of it is pretend. your personhood is made up in your mind. you are already playing pretend! you are playing pretend that you are a person! having thoughts and beliefs and emotions and opinions is make-believe! it is made up of the same essential psychic Stuff as playing pretend.
you may be pleasantly surprised to find out how joyful the different parts of your heart and your life might feel to be granted the respect and autonomy to distinguish themselves as distinct and unique and each worthy of personhood, choice, and expression.
once again: no singlets allowed! get plural now!
#good and helpful reminders#were all simply weird animals who make up rules for things#there are no rules let the 12 year old you in your head stretch their/your legs and stop pretending to be one cohesive animal all the time
DING DING DING WINNER OF UNDERSTANDING WHAT I'M SAYING AWARD GOES TO THESE TAGS (/GEN)
there are no rules. it's literally all make-believe. go ham. the child who lives in your heart must be let loose at all costs. I'm letting this fucker drive! [universally understood symbol for "the two year old alter"]
I will not call myself or other people "gooners" or "npcs" or "larpers". i will not call things i dont like "slop". i will not use terms like "-oids". i dont like how common language is slowly becoming more focused on shorthand terms for hate and apathy
Multiple people have said this. I dont get this sentiment. it clearly comes from a place of wanting to be elitist but.
the ai that makes the things you call slop aren't real. it doesnt have feelings. so youre just using a perjorative, fully aware that its etymology is neo-nazi rhetoric (see "goyslop"), to insult something that doesnt have the ability to rationalize it.
congratulations?
"i didnt know it was linked to neo-fascist 4chan rhetoric"
that's fine. you do now. you arent in trouble. im not your teach admonishing you.
"its just a term that didnt have that kinda meaning before"
unfortunately it does now. there are lots of terms - including outright slurs! - that had their meanings evolve over time due to social perception and usage. just dont use it lol. there are other words. garbage. trash. poop. et c
I hope it's okay to yap a bit cause this is something I have a small vendetta against as well. It's important to note it usually DID have that meaning before.
Perhaps we've reached the point most people are entering the zeitgeist with places like the chans being such smaller figures among the usual spaces, it's become not as common knowledge to instantly be able pick out things that radiate from such sub-cultures, be it through decontextualization(personally I baselessly think twitch streamers are a big contributor to this, a number of them reek of ant pheromones for me) etc, to the point people can do something like use greentext without knowing what an imageboard even is.
The etymology book person on tiktok has done a great job delving in to this, and I would hope more people would be receptive to being credibly informed they are basically saying slurs-by-proxy. The fact you couldn't tell/it can "technically " be used without the connotation was kind of the point.
I personally am constantly whiplashed by how often I see otherwise well-adjusted people ostensibly /b/-post out of nowhere(terry davis stuff for example is another one I've seen starting to become a little too normalized).
Sure language evolves and such, but these really do not feel worth "reclaiming" or whatever, we don't need to reclaim dogwhistles, that's just enabling the dogwhistle to do what it does.
I had a dream about Columbo at a drag show. This is what came from it.
I'm waiting for him to explain to me how his newfound love of drag allowed him to prove I killed my business partner
