does the body ALWAYS have to keep the score? maybe we could just have a friendly game this time. maybe we can just have fun without putting numbers on it

man sometimes friendship really is just "I saw this and knew it would give you psychic damage. please respond with agony" and then they do. and it's great

I CAN it's TRUE. (points at a bird) probably a bird, that one. (squinting) maayyyyyyybe.

What appears to be the silhouette of a duck turns around to reveal itself as a rabbit, hopping off into the bush.

the natural lifespan of a fandom is unlimited. when well tended a fandom can be functionally immortal. and yet everywhere you look you see newly bred fandoms withering and dying when they’re barely a year old. barely even six months old. fans are looking at their six month old fandoms and saying i think it’s on its last legs, should i euthanise it? when with the proper care that fandom could outlive them for decades. it’s sad. sad state of affairs we’re in.

unidentified plurality is "okay I don't feel good with my birth name" and then you only feel good with your chosen name sometimes and having no clue why

I am NOT a Julian that is NOT my name (chat do I LOOK like a Julian *gestures at myself*) but Julian’s the host so HE chose the name (he didn’t KNOW he was a host but still) -Dean

being part of a system is a metronome that swings between “DEBILITATING TERRIFYING SELF DOUBT THAT MAKES YOUR ENTIRE WORLD TEETER ON A KNIFE’S EDGE” and “CRUSHING ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY THAT IT’S ALL REAL BECAUSE NO OTHER EXPERIENCE ON EARTH COULD EVEN BEGIN TO EXPLAIN THIS”

but it’s also just. normal. I wake up. I go through life. and I generally have a very good time. there’s just that background hum of “ohh fuck… is this my life????? oh god! this is my life!!!!!! oh hey! this is my life!” and I think going through those motions is okay. it’s a wild way to experience life. all things considered, we’re doing pretty okay.

“If you give children a vocabulary that’s large enough and complex enough to express their emotions and their ideas, you give them access to complex feelings and emotions in themselves. So that if you talk to a teenager and all they can say about how they feel is BAD, and they haven’t got, you know, a larger vocabulary for lonely, abused, insecure, frightened…I mean there’s this huge panoply which…I remember when my daughter was just telling me that she just felt bad, I bought her a thesaurus. I said, “Look up, is it sort of over lonely, or is it insecure…and look up under lonely, you’ll find two hundred words for lonely. Which one?” But what that does is that it makes you feel that there’s this huge complexity of emotions and there are words for all of them. If you want children to feel less frustrated and less disenfranchised and less unable to even feel comfortable with their own emotions, you’ll have to give them a vocabulary that’s as complicated as their inner lives. And one of the things we see in children is this incredibly reduced capacity for reporting their inner lives to the exterior world. One of the things is just teaching them poems, just teaching them to memorize poems in school, they don’t have to interpret them, if they just internalize the language of the poem, the complexity of the emotion in the poems…” -Jorie Graham, in a conversation

happy disability pride month to people with BFRB’s (body focused repetitive behaviors) like dermatillomania, trichotillomania, nail biters, etc

BFRB’s are so hard to spread awareness and positivity for because, at least for me, mentioning skin-picking, hair-pulling etc can often just be triggering 😩 but know there’s no shame, and they’re SO much more common than you think. I have so many ADHD friends come up to me later and say “YOU have trich too??” and like. It’s so nice knowing we’re not alone in this, it just doesn’t get talked about often.
