everything will probably be fine but i have to get really anxious just in case

[allamericansbitch]

i love this new gen of pop stars so much

[allamericansbitch]

an absolutely humungous update they just keep getting better

[rowark]

I think this needs an important addendum:

Not only did Billie Eilish donate $11.5M, she also called out a room full of billionaires, including Mark Zuckerberg, directly to their faces, saying "If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire? No hate, but, yeah, give your money away, shorties."

The $11.5M she's donating is about 1/4 if her net worth. Imagine if a billionaire did that? If Mark Zuckerberg donated 1/4 of his net worth, it would be about $55 BILLION... and he's still have over $100 billion left.

And, yet, unsurprisingly, people are mad at Billie Eilish for what she said and not at the billionaires for hoarding all the money and resources

"senseless tragedy" they do tend to be, yeah

99% of sufferers quit before they find the meaning that rationalises all the pain they've endured. KEEP DIGGING DEEPER INTO THE WOUND UNTIL IT YIELDS.

All time travelers must be vaccinated against smallpox, be up to date on their flu shots, and carry flea and mosquito repellant and water purifying tablets with them. Complete your yearly cultural sensitivity training for your particular time period.

Do NOT allow some street urchin to peer pressure you into eating moldy bread. We’ve lost too many agents to that one

Also again we do NOT authorize use of the company machines to get in more study time for the cultural sensitivity training. Taking risks with the fabric of space time is not permitted for personal use.

I have been instructed to not name names but you know who you are and you have two strikes already.

dear people with OCD: the next time you have spiraling & intrusive thoughts, what-ifs, or catastrophizing scenarios, I am sending a cardigan-wearing 46-year old NYU professor directly into your brain and he says "Aaaaand scene!!!" and he claps his hands slowly. and he says "Wow. Wow. Powerful stuff. Evocative imagery. A little bit post-modern, a little bit hysterical realism in the vein of Don Delilo but let's pause right here." and you will recognize your thoughts as a perplexing avant-garde film shown to an audience of 15 liberal arts students who are now trying to get a good grade and sleep with their professor.

[beemovieerotica]

I almost posted this without the professor-fucking part but I decided that it is in fact crucial to combating OCD. sometimes you have to fight fire with fire i.e. spiraling thoughts with strong negative emotions get countered with strongly emotive surprise, cringe, and humor

sometimes the OCD brain can't just be stopped from fantasizing completely, but you can redirect that anxious mental energy toward crafting a fictional setup and story that doesn't involve you or your fears at all

another thing I do is interrupt intrusive thoughts with a very conscious and deliberate "and then an elephant walks in." and I'd make myself commit to the bit. it would force me to reframe everything and specifically understand it in an absurdist context, make me confront how ridiculous the initial thoughts even were, and there is honestly no way to keep being serious and distraught about your what-if scenarios when you've introduced a fucking elephant into the mix. film studies professor is also that elephant.

so it goes from scary thoughts about my life -> step back. this is a weird fictional film now. -> characters are analyzing the film -> those characters are super messy and have their own problems, and I'm watching them now and eating popcorn at this soap opera

[therogueduchess]

I need you to understand that now I am seeing this whole scenario but the professor is an elephant. Exactly as described, an elephant wearing a cardigan and no I do not understand how it is managing the clapping noise with legs that bend the way an elephant’s do. And yes the students all still want to sleep with him

non-writers will never understand the mental illness of writing an entire conversation in your head while doing dishes and then forgetting every word the second you open a blank doc

before I left for work today I on a whim pulled a random tarot card and I got death which is a positive card in general but it also made me laugh because I asked the cards "What's my work shift at the funeral home gonna be like today?" And I got death. Like yes ha ha you guys are hilarious. Making me pull that very on the nose card. Yes, death will be there it will be death-like at the funeral home. very funny

some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

I couldn't remember the word "doorknob" ten minutes ago.

Being a bisexual emperor must be the most stressful shit in the world. You go to the inner palace and all your wives are scheming. You go to the outer court and all the male concubines that you promoted to viziers through nepotism are fighting. Your wife just poisoned your favorite twink eunuch. There’s no peace

My mantra this week

[couldnt-think-of-a-funny-name]

cute little girl excitedly telling her class she's gonna bring her pet bunny in for show and tell and everyone is expecting an adorable ball of fluff but then she comes in with the most demonically possessed looking hare ever. she's got him clutched to her chest like you would hold a stuffed animal but his long back legs are dragging on the ground. she smothers him in kisses and proudly tells everyone "I haven't been able to teach him how to fetch or anything yet but if you look in his eyes long enough he can tell you how you'll die!!! 🥰"

[couldnt-think-of-a-funny-name]

the teacher assumed that last thing was a joke but then she hears a rumbling, echoing voice gravely say "medical malpractice" to the six year old boy who was petting the hare

[couldnt-think-of-a-funny-name]

all of the other kids are oooh-ing and ahhh-ing

[rubensmuse]

in honor of the Lilo & Stitch remake being a huge piece of shit here's a comic about what the original meant to me as an 8 year old

[yasmiralotta]

Lilo is one of the best kid characters of all time for a reason 👏

[cherri-dusty-xoxo-deactivated20]

What is also realistic is the fact that Lilo gets punished for standing up for herself while Myrtle and her friends get off scot free.
