Jargon of My mind

Hiya! Names Gui~. (Gee -hard G sound) Welcome to my Blog, where I place our thoughts and actions and art about things (Eventually). I like using ~ a lot. 25, Non-Binary (they, them, etc). Writing is main muse, and to be published is ultimate (well, second ultimate~) goal in life. Marvel has taken over everything, I reblog from other fandoms on occasion, and write our own work, which occasionally wanders onto the internet. Tags will be updated. (Eventually) Enjoy the blog!

7 Subtle Signs Your Trauma Response is to ‘Fawn’

“I once felt guilty because a friend spent thirty minutes looking for parking near the cafe I chose to meet them at.”

In a nutshell, “fawning” is the use of people-pleasing to diffuse conflict, feel more secure in relationships, and earn the approval of others.

It’s a maladaptive way of creating safety in our connections with others by essentially mirroring the imagined expectations and desires of other people.

Often times, it stems from traumatic experiences early on in life, as I described in last month’s article.

It resonated with so many you, and since then, I’ve gotten a lot of questions on how to recognize this type of response in ourselves, particularly in our day-to-day interactions.

I can only speak from personal experience, but there are a number of commonalities among “fawn” types that I think are worth noting.

I’m going to share seven struggles that a lot of us seem to experience as people-pleasers. If it sounds familiar, you, my friend, probably know a thing or two about fawning.

Me: *See's that it is Midnight/1am* welp, time to sleep.

My Body: Yup, time to sleep, so that you can wake up between 5-6am and stay groggily awake until 10 am when your body actually comes online.

Me: Why are you like this?

My Body: Isn't this better than the insomnia?

Me: ... Yes. Yes it is. *sighs*

Batsis Headcanons I Know Are 100% True

Author’s Note: I had fun writing this one ;) Tags: @etherealdemeter @darkfaethedestroyer @jason-todd-squad @angelgl16 @imjustnightwingingit​

ª     As the oldest in the family, she’s the one who keeps everyone happy and civil towards each other.

“Dad stop being a dickhead to Dick.”

“I’m not being a-”

“Dick stop being an arse-biscuit to dad.”

“I’m not being an arse-biscuit.”

“Well you’re both acting like children so grow up.”

ª     When she steps in, whatever the problem is, it’s done.

“Why don’t you say it to my face demon-spawn?”

“Get over here and I will you.”

“Enough. Both of you.”

“He started it (Y/N)!”

“I don’t care. I’m finishing it.”

ª     Much like Dick, when she was old enough, she moved out.

ª     Not all the way across the map, just across the city so that she didn’t have to see everyone all the time.

ª     They still come over.

ª     Usually unannounced.

ª     With their friends.

“Why are you all always at my apartment??”

“’Cause your apartment is the coolest.”

“Okay? But you guys have your own apartments. I know you do because I helped you all decorate them. Why don’t you go there?”

“Because we love our older sister and we want to see her.”

“Well the feeling isn’t mutual. Fucking go home and take your friends with you.”

ª     She only has three rules: Clean up any messes, Don’t act like idiots, and Don’t use me as a shield to hide from something.

ª     The last one is the usually ignored.

ª     In fact, it’s always ignored.

“The hell are you doing here Jason?”

“The old man is looking for me.”

“*Sigh* What for?”

“I might’ve stabbed someone tonight?”

“You might’ve or you did?”

“…The second one.”

“Didn’t I tell you not to come over when you’re running from something? I get dragged into it and I get in trouble too.”

“I love you big sis.”

“No, the fuck you don’t.”

ª     She always gripes about when people leave doors open.

“I chime in, haven’t you people ever heard of CLOSING MY GODDAMN DOORS?! LIKE SERIOUSLY?! THE NEXT TIME I SEE A DOOR WIDE OPEN, I’M GOING TO INTRODUCE YOUR ASS TO MY FOOT! STOP LEAVING MY FUCKING DOORS OPEN! WE’RE IN GODDAMN GOTHAM CITY! YOU’RE PRACTICALLY ASKING SOMEONE TO ROB ME!”

ª     Her shopping bills are outrageous as she’s feeding four growing boys, two speedsters with super-human metabolisms, two Kryptonians, and occasionally Roy and Kyle.

“Holy crap sis. You spent a grand at Walmart yesterday! Why?!”

“Hmm, I don’t know Dick, you tell me. Maybe it’s because I have two speedsters and two Kryptonians that eat all my food? Or maybe it’s because my brothers can’t be bothered to buy their own food and go to their own apartments to eat? I really don’t know why.”

“…Sorry…”

“Say that to my wallet and bank account.”

“At least Bruce pays for it.”

“Actually, your trust fund pays for it.”

“WHAT?!”

ª     More than once, she’s been woken up by the sound of her window opening in the wee hours of the morning.

“Jason, it’s two A.M. If that’s you coming through my window, I’m going to throw you off the fire-escape.”

ª     Cue Jason mocking Dick’s voice.

“Uh, it’s not Jason, it’s Dick.”

“You wanna know how I know it’s not Dick? Because Dick would’ve already flopped onto the bed. You ain’t foolin’ anyone Jason.”

“…Figured I’d try anyways.”

“You figured wrong.”

ª     When Tim is over, it usually means that Bart and Conner will show up.

ª     She knows they get there when the sound of Bart running around her kitchen reaches her ears.

ª     She looks at Tim and just glares.

“Did you know that out of all of the speedsters, Bart eats the most?”

“Uh…I do now.”

ª     Bart’s been yelled at more than once for running around.

ª     The first time he got yelled at was when he ran smack into (Y/N) when she had a glass of wine in her hand.

ª     She made him sit on the couch and be deathly still for two hours.

ª     Conner is always respectful and knocks first before entering, so she doesn’t have a problem with him.

ª     Jon is the exact same way so she’s chill with them.

ª     No one uses the doors and it drives her up the walls.

“Why can’t you people use the doors?! It isn’t that hard!”

“But it’s a waste of time to walk up all the stairs when the window is right here.”

“I’m gonna throw you out the goddamn window Jason.”

“You can’t lift me up.”

“Bitch I can squat two-fifty and I can bench-press two-fifteen. Wanna say that again?”

“…No…”

“Fuckin’ thought so.”

ª     Eventually getting tired of seeing her brothers and friends all over her bedroom floor, she moved into a penthouse where everyone has their own room.

ª     They still end up in hers.

“I MOVED INTO A PENTHOUSE SO YOU IDIOTS WOULD HAVE YOUR OWN ROOMS! GET OUT OF MINE!”

“But your room is so nice and comfortable!”

“I LITERALLY GIVE NO FUCKS TIMOTHY JACKSON! MOVE YOUR ASSES OUT OF MY ROOM.”

“Stop yelling (Y/N). We’re trying to sleep.”

“Homicide is a very serious crime and it’s a very serious crime that I will not commit no matter how angry I am.”

“Darn skippy sis.”

“Shut. The. Fuck. Up. Dick.”

ª     Bruce calls her every week to make sure she’s coming to Sunday dinner.

“You’re coming for dinner on Sunday, right?”

“Haven’t you gotten tired of asking that question? You’ve been asking it every week for the last nine years. You know how many weeks that is? Do you?”

“Four-hundred-and-sixty-eight weeks.”

“And in those four-hundred-and-sixty-eight weeks, has my answer ever been no?”

“No.”

“Then why do you keep asking me?”

“Because you’re my only daughter and I want to make sure you still love me.”

“You keep my brothers and their friends out of my penthouse, and I’ll love you forever dad.”

“I’ve been working on it.”

“Well work harder. Cause you ain’t workin’ hard enough.”

ª     The only time she’s appeased about them coming over is when Dick or Jason brings their hot friends.

“Hey Jason, is Kyle coming over later?”

“I think he was. He said he had something at home he needed to do first.”

“Good.”

“Why good?”

“Because Kyle is hot, and he has a nice butt.”

“Please don’t sleep with my friends.” 

“No promises.”

ª     But at the end of the day, she loves her family and she’s more than happy to share her home if need arises.

“You boys know you’re welcome to come over, right?”

“Really? You usually gripe about us coming over.”

“That’s because you guys never ask to come over Damian. You just show up.”

“At least I don’t pass out in the middle of your living room like Drake.”

“It was one-time pipsqueak!”

“One time too many.”

“I hate you.”

“I know.”

“I hate you both.”

“That wasn’t nice sister.”

“Tough titty said the kitty, the milks run out.”

Okay, it’s like a reverse little mermaid kind of situation. A mermaid who previously got injured saving a baby shark from harm’s way, got caught up in a storm and wasn’t strong enough to swim away from it. A human person who lives alone in a house on the beach went out to look for their dog (the human found the dog and safely returned it to their home, the dog wasn’t harmed whatsoever) noticed the mermaid struggling and against better judgement and risking everything, went out with their boat to try and save the mermaid. They succeeded and barely got out with both of their lives. Once the mermaid got on land, their tail disappeared and was replaced by legs. The human didn’t know what to do with the mermaid or how to take care of them, they weren’t even sure if the mermaid was dangerous or not and since they hadn’t regained consciousness yet, the human tied them up, just for safety. Once they woke up, they realized they lost all of their memories. The human untied them, believing they were harmless (in truth, they weren’t, but they’re a really good mereperson with a big heart so the human was safe in their company) and got them some clothes, which of course, did not fit (whether they were too big or too small, too short, too long, it’s up to you) and the mermaid looked so cute and funny in them. The human person started calling them Mer, short for mermaid, but everyone assumes it is short for something else (Meredith, Mearl, Merrow - which is btw the mermaid’s real name, but neither of them know that at this point, etc). The mermaids just smiles and says, “Maybe,” whenever anyone tries to guess their name. No one guesses Merrow, which would be the key to unlocking their memories. Some neighboring kids make it their mission to find the name out. In the end they do, and once they do so, the mermaid unlocks their memories. The kids always hung around the main character in the past too because they were a bit of a loner but also really good to the kids so they always wanted to go play with them and cheer them up, like the good kids they are. What happens next is up to you. Gender doesn’t matter, the characters can be whatever you want them to be, whatever you think they are. If anyone decides to write it, please tag me in it, I want to read and reblog it.

For some backstory, I took the word Merrow from a medieval Irish tale, it is a name used for a mermaid or merman in Irish folklore.

please please please don’t attack me for saying this but the normalisation of teenagers and college students smoking weed is becoming a problem

[princesshamlet-deactivated20210]

to elaborate, the other day i was visiting a college which has a bit of a reputation, as many colleges do, for having a lot of weed. and i mentioned one of my concerns for attending, which was the fact that if i inhale marijuana secondhand smoke, i have an asthma attack and physically can’t breathe. and i mentioned this to a couple prospective students and i both times got the reaction “it’s ok; you can just use edibles!” and i didn’t really say this at the time, but the fact is, i don’t want to. i don’t want to interact with weed at all in college, and—at least at my high school—that’s considered strange. and i honest-to-god believe that is majorly fucked up.

and here’s the thing. even expressing this sentiment is hard. because when i try to talk about the consequences of doing weed (yeah believe it or not there are some) or even my reasons for not wanting to do weed, people assume i believe myself to be morally better than someone who does do weed, and i don’t. i don’t feel superior to anyone, especially not for a reason as stupid as that. the thing is, i don’t want to use my asthma as an excuse for not wanting to vape, but i feel like i have to. i don’t want to use my asthma as an excuse for not wanting to smoke, but i feel like i have to. and i hate this aspect of the culture i’m in. i hate that i have to defend the position of “i don’t think eighteen-year-olds should smoke weed.” i hate that it’s considered normal—even cool—to consistently put recreational drugs in your body from ages 13-24.

[princesshamlet-deactivated20210]

since making this post i’ve been called a bitch and a narc, which i think really tells you something.

[geekandmisandry]

Drugs are…drugs, despite legal standing, they can be really intense and not everyone wants that experience. Stop being rude to people if they don’t want to do drugs, regardless of what it is or how cool you think it is.

[lananiscorner]

As someone who hates the smell of weed (despite not being allergic to it), I empathize. That said, I’d like to ask you too reconsider your statement of using “i don’t want to use my asthma as an excuse“. It is not an excuse. It is a reason. A medical one. One you have zero influence over and yes, people will give you shit for bringing it up, but they’ll just have to fucking deal. I’m not sure if there is a non-workplace equivalent to ADA and similar legislation, but that’s what those statutes are for!

I also empathize with the pushback you’re getting, as someone who is allergic to most animal hair/feathers. Some are worse than others. Horses are the worst (I walk by a stable and my eyes and nose clog up like crazy). Birds just kill me during molting season. Dogs and cats I tend to be fine with unless I’m spending a lot of time up close and personal with them. If someone at my office were to suggest a “bring your dog” policy, it would never go through, because 1) we’ve got cables and expensive electronics everywhere and 2) it’s a hot-desking open floor plan environment, so there’d be literally zero chance of separating the dogs from allergic workers, but oh boy do I know how much of a shitshow it would be…

favorite presidential kid? probably alice roosevelt.

-her mother died two days after she was born and on the same day her maternal grandmother also died. teddy was so sad that he left his newborn daughter with his sister anna for two years and could never bring himself to say his wife’s name so alice who was named after her mother had to be called “lee”, her middle name.

-when teddy remarried, alice’s stepmom edith made it clear that she thought alice’s mom had been beautiful but dumb. when alice’s parents couldn’t handle her anymore, they sent her to her aunt anna’s. according to alice, “If auntie Bye had been a man, she would have been president”. alice claimed to feel one-sixth as loved as her five half-siblings.

-then alice got polio which at the time could kill, not to mention cripple. her stepmom put her through an uncompromising regimen of nightly forced wearing of torturous leg braces and shoes, which left alice with no trace of the disability and able to run up stairs and touch her nose with her toe well into her 80s.

-alice’s dad and stepmom tried to send her to a conservative girls’ school but alice wrote home, “If you send me I will humiliate you. I will do something that will shame you. I tell you I will”.

-when teddy became president in 1901, alice became an instant celebrity and fashion icon at age 17. she did scandalous things like smoking cigarettes in public, riding in cars with men, staying out late partying, keeping a pet snake (called emily spinach) in the white house, and placing bets with a bookie. 

-she even had a color - alice blue - and a song - alice blue gown - named after her. the press called her princess alice.

-during an imperial cruise to japan, alice jumped into a pool fully dressed and coaxed a congressman in to join her.

-one time a white house visitor commented on alice’s frequent interruptions in the oval office, usually with political advice. after the third interruption, teddy explained, “I can either run the country or I can attend to Alice, but I cannot possibly do both”.

-in february 1906, alice married congressman nicholas longworth and was the social event of the season. it was attended by more than a thousand guests and thousands gathered outside hoping for a glance of princess alice. she wore a blue wedding dress and cut the wedding cake with a sword.

-alice publicly supported her dad’s 1912 presidential candidate while her husband supported president taft. alice appeared on stage in her husband’s own district with her dad’s vp candidate. longworth lost by 105 votes and alice joked that she was worth at least 100 votes (meaning she was the reason he lost).

-alice’s campaign against her husband caused a friction in their marriage and longworth was known to be carrying on many affairs. it was also generally accepted knowledge in dc that alice had a long, ongoing affair with senator william borah, who by alice’s own admission was the father of her daughter, paulina. alice had a wicked sense of humor and had initially wanted to name her daughter deborah (as in de Borah).

-after the death of her daughter paulina in 1957, alice fought for and won custody of her granddaughter joanna. 

-in the 1950s, alice’s health began to fail her and she broke a hip. she also discovered she was suffering from breast cancer and had to have two mastectomies. in 1960, alice was diagnosed with emphysema. 

-alice was also a champion of rights for african-americans. one day, in 1965, alice’s african-american chauffeur and good friend, turner, was driving her to an appointment. turner pulled out in front of a taxi and the driver yelled at him, “What do you think you’re doing, you black bastard?” turner stayed calm but alice told the taxi driver, “He’s taking me to my destination, you white son of a bitch!”

-after many years of ill health, alice died of emphysema and pneumonia at age 96, outliving all five of her younger half-siblings.

-her most famous quote was, “If you haven’t got anything good to say about anybody, come sit next to me”. 

-when senator joseph mccarthy joked at a party, “Here’s my blind date. I am going to call you Alice”, she replied, “Senator McCarthy, you are not going to call me Alice. The trashman and the policeman on my block call me Alice, but you may not”. 

-she told president lyndon b. johnson that she wore wide-brimmed hats so he couldn’t kiss her.

-when a kkk member dressed in full costume asked her to trust his word, she said, “I never trust a man under sheets”.

so in summary, alice roosevelt longworth was badass.

this is her:

[increasedenthalpy-deactivated20]

‘To you, my Father, who do you hate girls? With the same hatred you hate our Mothers…’

In the village of Umoja in Kenya, men are not welcome. In fact, they are banned. In Swahili, one of Kenya’s official languages, Umoja means unity. It is a safe and inspirational refuge for 50 women and 200 children. Umoja was founded in 1990 by female survivors of rape and sexual violence. It has also become a haven for women fleeing sexual and domestic violence, and welcomes people fleeing female genital mutilation, child marriage, and more.

‘I wouldnt wish any Maasai girl to go through what I went through.’

The local Samburu culture is patriarchal where historically women are seen as property. Beading is culturally significant and the women are able to support themselves by selling crafts. Protected by a wall of thorns, the village is self-sufficient and the women run their own lives. Despite resistance from local male-run tribal groups, the village continues to grow. Life is frugal, but the women own the land the village is on and proudly call Umoja their home. A beacon of light for women, Umoja has inspired other women-only villages in Kenya.
