I got a baby western hognose! She’s very gentle and tolerant of handling even though she’s still young. She only hisses a tiny bit and calms right down once she’s in my hands. I’m thinking of naming her Lily.

Stop all that “you attract what you are ready for” shit. Sometimes life is just terrible. It’s not always my fault.

“Life never gives you more than you can handle.” Yes, it does.

“People are placed in your life to teach you a valuable lesson that helps your soul on its way to enlightenment.” No, there are a just a lot of people who feel empowered when they act like assholes. We live in that kind of society.

“You keep finding yourself in the same situation because you haven’t discovered the message the universe is trying to send to you yet.”  Sometimes unpleasant things are stuck on repeat, because you have a mental or physical condition, and it is a symptom. Symptoms are like that.

“The truth always hurts.” No, it doesn’t, and what hurts often isn’t the truth, but is instead someone’s biased opinion.

I really appreciate this comment. Thank you thank you thank you.

This is what I need to hear. I blamed myself for so long for the abuse I endured and for attracting the people that hurt me.

OK “the truth hurts” is a maxim that needs to die. It teaches us that “truth=pain” so when someone tells us something hurtful, we assume it must be true. Conversely, when someone says something nice to us, it must be a lie because truth hurts, right?

I can’t begin to calculate how many people have suffered because they assume someone who hurts them must be telling them the truth

[fluffyballofpain]

The only reason truth sometimes hurts is because of cognitive dissonance. If you have your beliefs challenged by something truthful (or at least something more objective and nuanced than what your current beliefs reflect), you start to doubt your beliefs and actions. It’s uncomfortable to the extent that people tend to avoid information that might challenge their beliefs. It’s good to reflect on your world view now and then, but if someone says something hurtful, that doesn’t inherently make it true.

Kravitz is concerned he’s not the favorite anymore because why doesn’t the Raven Queen hang his drawings on the obelisk?? :’(

neck kissing is honestly the hottest, most seductive thing anybody could ever do to me. if you kiss my neck, if you playfully bite my neck, if your tongue touches my neck i will melt in your fingertips.

DWP spends £39m defending decisions to strip benefits from sick and disabled people

Exclusive: Government appeal process condemned as ‘traumatic’ and a ‘waste of time and money’

New figures show that in 2016 the Government spent £22m processing claimants’ initial appeals against sanctions – a stage most people must pass through before they reach a tribunal.

It emerged earlier this year that government officials are given targets to reject four out of five initial appeals – known as mandatory reconsiderations – for disability benefits.

reminder that tory ideology isn’t fiscal conservatism but open and barbaric class warfare targeted at the most vulnerable.
