the reduction of “mental illness” to just moderate anxiety and depression really fucking pisses me off. any discussion at a workplace, school, university, doctors office, on the radio, on TV, in the news on “mental illness” is always just a discussion on anxiety and depression. all the awareness on social media for “mental illness” is always just for anxiety and depression.

I’d like to think this is because they are the most common forms of mental illness (though it has to be said anxiety and depression in themselves are umbrella terms, there are lots of different anxiety and depressive disorders), but I’ve got to say I’m noticing a theme in symptoms of mental illness that people can tolerate. even the more severe symptoms of anxiety and depression are simply not discussed, our own fault or are just excuses of some kind.

schizophrenics, bipolars, borderlines, people w/ DID etc. for some reason are in a seperate category than depressives and anxiety sufferers. there’s mental health issues and then there’s us crazy people. they dehumanise us and turn us into serial killers, bad parents, abusive husbands, cheaters and manipulators in their books and TV shows. if they can’t make our symptoms look romantic and easily fixed, they don’t want anything to do with us. we’re only useful for a good plot point, and in real life no one wants to talk about us. we’re here too, and there’s nothing to be gained by leaving us out of the discussion

cool so you can hide ads for knowing too much now

[secretly-bea]

hey!

hey!

probably don’t do this!

when you tell facebook an ad “knows too much” you’re essentially confirming that their advertisement algorithm is working, it’s just making people uncomfortable because it’s working too well

it’s still positive feedback on them trying to either flood people with advertisements or socially engineer you into buying things by tracking frankly enormous amounts of data on your location, the other websites and apps you use, your conversations recorded through your phone, everything

instead? just mark all ads as "repetitive” or “irrelevant”- something that doesn’t give them information on how well the ad catered to your tastes.

don’t give huge creepy corporations valuable information on your ad tastes. they will use it against you in any way they can.

I love that one of the restrictions on name changes in the UK is that your name cannot “promote criminal activities” and fucking hell every name I can think of that violates that is just stellar honestly like fucking hello nice to meet you my name is Commit Arson, I’d like you to meet my daughter Dont Pay Taxes and my son Steal From Work

Being a good person is a choice. Don’t let people fool you into believing that truly good people never have bad thoughts, are never tempted by the easier path, by the low road, never mess up or act out selfishly. Never believe a person can be good without making a conscious effort.

Every single time you do something good, you’ve made a decision to make the world a little brighter.

Goodness is not an inherent trait, it is a choice. Keep making it! I see you, I’m proud of you, and I’m rooting for you!
