Happy Yule! I’m taking some time off work and social media for the Holidays. To all my Tumblr friends and followers, see you in 2020!

A Brief Warning Regarding the Toxic Behaviour of Tumblr
A few toxic things that masquerade as normality on this website have caused people to gradually step into unhealthy ways of thinking and behaving. I’ve seen these issues so often that it’s come to the point where I would like to address some of them and encourage people to think more rationally. Once you spend some time away from these ways of thinking, you will come to realize that many things on this site are basically brainwashing. And please, do your best to not form all your opinions from people on here and spend more time away from tumblr. This is one of the worst places to allow yourself to develop.
Over-identifying with labels: While this is often fun for people and can be a way to embrace who you are, it is also potentially harmful. There are plenty of ways to develop who you are as a person, and labels are often temporary things since we constantly change (though of course, some things might not change for people). Yet if a person latches onto a label and allows it to become who they are, but changes their mental-state in the future (realizes they want to have a different sexuality, don’t actually want to be trans, etc), it can be damaging and causes them to undo the identity they had bonded with.
This is also harmful for those who over-attach to their mental illness, as this causes a romanticization of the issue rather than focusing on how to overcome it. Other times, some sexualities or dysphoria come from trauma (some asexuals/aromantics are examples of this); if a person does not consider that what they feel may come from a traumatic experience and requires therapy, they will still feel that something is wrong even if they embrace a different label/identity. So while connecting to a label is overall okay, it is most healthy to not become too attached and instead fully focus on discovering who you are as a person and not fearing change.
Superiority complexes regarding being lgbt: This is a common toxic pit to fall into for those who are oppressed, it has happened all throughout history. If we want to actually be wiser than those who have shunned us, we cannot act like we are better or smarter than those who are straight or cisgendered. We are not better than them at all, only equal, and there are far better things in the world to worry about than being gay. I have seen people on here arguing over the supposed gender of a fictional character so many times and it is ridiculous and embarrassing. Is this really what you people have time for? You aren’t better for being gay or trans, it’s only an important path of realization for yourself and not much more.
No-one is special for having this sort of identity, you are just like any other but with a different preference. And sure, you may not be biased towards lgbt people like how many non-queer people are, but many lgbt people are still biased towards each other, so it’s really not much of an accomplishment. But by all means, we can support our rights and have Pride parades, just don’t fall into the trap of acting better than others. This trend of acting superior or how those who aren’t queer can easily have their opinions shut down is not okay. This is a way of thinking that is parallel to how some minorities had become oppressive in the past; if this behavior does not change, you will become the prejudice ones as well. I’ve also seen people constantly complaining about whether someone needs dysphoria to be trans or if bisexuals are gay, but why? Why do you actually care about how other people are identifying? And how can you sit there and make such petty arguments when there are people in the world who are actually suffering day by day? Many of you need to grow up and see how the world truly is.
The aggressive Puritan mentality: Whether you notice it or not, many of you, including myself for some time, had fallen into this site’s herd-mentality of always trying to “purify” how we behave. It becomes so engrained that a person can simply put guilt into us by saying “this is appropriation” (when it isn’t and they get called out later) or “no-one is allowed to like this story/poem because the author was racist”; well in that case, let’s just get rid of over half the literature we have. Or how I have seen a person on here get angry at someone for posting a list of their favourite books but didn’t include any female authors (this behaviour is insane). Unfortunately, there are plenty of people who go to extremes with trying to police how everyone thinks or speaks. Remember, just because someone says that something is the “correct, moral way” doesn’t mean it actually is. Again, please learn to think for yourselves and do not give in to herd-mentalities.
Over-generalizing things has also been a problem to the point where I feel that many people here do not realize that every country is full of racism (towards everyone, not just black people). And yes, people are able to be racist towards white people as well (first, look up the definitions of racism) and also realize that some peoples, such as the Greeks, had been victims of mass genocide and the first concentration camps. Not to mention that they had been victims of slavery by the Turkish for nearly 500 years. The truth is that everyone is guilty, no-one is allowed to act as if their race is clean of blame. Overall, question everything you hear, research constantly, and seek to broaden your understanding beyond barriers.
If anyone would like to add further examples, please feel free. This was kept quite brief but it needs to be said since this site has caused many to fear thinking differently.

How is everyone doing? Lately, I find myself getting lost in the demands of meeting career and life obligations, while also trying to pretend that everything is “business as usual” in the middle of a pandemic. We may not notice right away, but if we are not careful to respond to our body’s signals, everyday stress can easily turn into chronic stress. Little problems become big problems. Worry turns into anxiety. With so much chaos around us, it is even more important that we all take time to recognize when we need to take a step back and breath. To use a familiar flight analogy, we have to put on our own oxygen mask before assisting others. Helping yourself first is not selfish. It’s making sure that you are well and taken care of so that you can continue to do what you do. This week, I would like to encourage anyone reading this to take a break. Take some time for you. Check in with yourself. What do you need at this time to feel fully supported and safe?

#pirates of the caribbean was kind of a formative influence #so here’s the thing #after years of chasing curses and hearts and fountains; losing the pearl and winning her back and losing her again #after rum enough to drown his sins and sorrows both#captain jack sparrow wakes up one morning and he’s immortal #just like that #no deals with calypso (he hasn’t been able to find her since the brethren court broke her chains) no desperate double-dealing #one morning he just…stops #stops aging stops dying #he gets the seas forever—except #except #the edges of the map are closing in #the lure of undiscovered treasures is waning and merchant ships are becoming better defended #the day that the East India Company takes Shipwreck Island; Jack feels a great chapter in the world’s history close #(he flees to the Barbary coast with the rest of his ilk; but the romance has gone out of it—the is too much desperation #too much hunger too much blood to it nowadays #the age of the swashbuckler won’t live out the decade) #I imagine this thing he’s chased all his life would crumble through his hands as he bounced from ship to ship #he never gets used to the square rigging on the clippers; though they lead to some good work running tea from china #but the first time he sees a steamship he nearly walks off the dock out of shock #of all the ways sailing would have changed; who thought you’d get rid of the /sails/ #(he swears he’s never getting on one of those monstrosities; let alone sailing on one) #(he manages to hold out until 1893 when the longing for the sea overwhelms him and he decides that even #that ghastly smog and the humming of the engines can be endured) #sometimes he’ll see calypso out of the corner of his eye—leaning on the deck railing; darting alongside the ship with the dolphins #(someone in the early 20th century tells him they’re not fish and he nearly busts a gut laughing) #he wears a hundred names and a hundred looks; cuts his hair short or grows it long #calls himself american; spanish; english (british); caribbean #he has two dozen different copies of Stevenson’s Treasure Island—it reminds him of something gone and half-forgotten #and in 1920 when Seitz comes out with Pirate Gold; Captain Jack Sparrow is in the first row (x)
And then in the future, everything changes. He’s been through it all, of course-watched humanity rediscover the heavens above them, watched them begin to wonder what’s out there. He cheered with the rest of the world when they landed on the moon, cheered as if he’d found Isla de la Muerta all over again, because there was something new. New treasure, a new horizon. But then they stop going, stop exploring, and he goes back to riding tankers across the rising seas. So he’s surprised when one day he wakes up from a night with his bottle of rum (his truest companion), and hears that there’s colonies on Mars now, and they need ships to supply them. He spends the next decade crafting new identities, learning all he can to qualify for the job, and after several tries (and even more faked deaths-this immortality thing isn’t all it’s cracked up to be in the age of the inerasable digital self) he gets it. The ships go nearly constantly now, the needs of the terraforming project creating an unbroken line of vessels from Mars to Earth and back again. “Show me that horizon,” he whispers to himself, his personal prayer of thanksgiving, each time they leave orbit, because the worlds, the stars are in motion and it’s never the same, with nearly three years for a round trip the ports are always different, even if they keep the old names. And finally one trip something goes wrong with the reactor, they’re too low on power and have to deploy the backups, and Jack (Lucky Jack, they call him, for he survives too many things he shouldn’t but science has yet to accept that maybe some things weren’t old wives’ tales after all) goes out for the spacewalk to bring up the solar panels. And as they rise, geometric patterns black against the sun’s glare, he’s struck by a powerful sense of déjà vu, because it’s all here-wind and sails, a ship beneath his feet and stars above his head, horizon in all directions. He wonders, for a moment, if the reason he’s still here is because the universe wanted a witness, to mourn the end of one age of exploration, and rejoice in the birth of the next.
Thank you for writing this. It made me cry, but oh I am so relieved to see the yearning for the stars.
That shouldn’t have given me as many feels as it did…
This gave me chills like twice
Hi everyone! Just wanted to put it out there that I’ve created a discord server called ’“Carry On” Positivity’ for people who want to talk with like-minded fans about the finale. I’m new to discord but hopefully it won’t be too difficult to get going. Also it won’t let me send this from my spn blog but it’s moosechestered.tumblr.com.
Here’s the link to the server: https://discord.gg/7qQ9sHRY
Admin Kathy: Thank you @displeasign !
Reminder, Black people suffer from depression. Black people can be mentally ill. It is okay that Black people suffer from depression. It does not make us, especially Black women, any less strong or resilient. But when you wash all of our concerns away by calling us that, you’re invalidating our struggles because they don’t fit into your perception of Blackness. Cut it out. And yes this is for Black people too.
PSA to the Supernatural fandom (from someone who’s been there since S1):
STOP ATTACKING FANS THAT LIKED/ENJOYED THE FINALE.
STOP ATTACKING FANS THAT LIKED/ENJOYED THE FINALE.
STOP ATTACKING FANS THAT LIKED/ENJOYED THE FINALE.
People are literally afraid to post anything about the finale currently because of the amount of hate that’s been spammed all across some of the tags (mainly from a certain section of the fandom and while I’m not saying that all the hate is solely from them, the majority of hate/hateful “jokes” are coming from them) and from already getting attacked for it and that’s not okay.
You can dislike/hate the writing (there’s some seasons that I despise) and the way some things were handled but it doesn’t mean that others aren’t “less” of a fan or necessarily wrong for liking it; they have their reasons/interpretations of it and they’re just as valid as you.
ANYWAY. To all those that liked the finale, I see you and you have just as much a right to speak/share your views as everyone else.
#ThankYouSupernatural
Supernatural.
I just finished the last episode of Supernatural. I loved it. I’ve been watching and binge watch seasons over and over again since I was 15. Supernatural got me through a lot of tough times in my life and I’m sure I’ll watch it many times more. To me, it ended perfectly.
Deans death was perfect. He died on the job like he knew he always would. Death is a part of hunting. Chuck isn’t pulling the strings anymore and bringing the boys back over and over again to live out some twisted story. It was pure and it was the life of a hunter. So happy that baby made it to Heaven.
Sammy finally the life he wanted, minus Dean. He got a life outside of hunting, but made sure to warn his child. He lived the long life outside of hunting that he deserved.
Sure, there are some characters that I would have loved to see one last time but overall I loved the ending. It seems right. The story was about Dean and Sam and that’s exactly how it ended.
Time to start from Season 1… Again.
