Your Marionette in Disguise

Marissa, 20 and odd, with a broken pancreas. Residing in San Jose, California, I choose to spend my days either listening/playing music, writing/reading fanfiction,scaring people with my eccentric personality, geeking out in marching band, obsessing over fictional characters, and creating memories.

This is a lovely post. It goes to show that when we percieve our own work, most of us have some type of insecurities about our own talents. 

[atlanxic-deactivated20250205]

sometimes you say or do bad things while you’re in an awful mental place. sometimes you say things that are rude or uncalled for or manipulative. and i’m not going to hold that against you. mental illness is hard, and no one is perfect. but once you’re through that episode, you need to take steps to make amends. you need to apologize.

“i couldn’t help it, i was having a bad episode” is a justification, not an apology.

“i’m so fucking sorry, i fucked up, i don’t deserve to live, i should stop talking to anyone ever, i should die” is a second breakdown and a guilt trip. it is not an apology.

when you apologize, the focus should be on the person you hurt. “i’m sorry. i did something that was hurtful to you. even if i was having a rough time, you didn’t deserve to hear that,” is a better apology. if it was a small thing, you can leave it at that.

if you caused significant distress to the other person, this is a good time to talk about how you can minimize damage in the future. and again, even if it is tempting to say you should self-isolate and/or die, that is not a helpful suggestion. it will result in the person you’re talking to trying to talk you out of doing that, which makes your guilt the focus of the conversation instead of their hurt.

you deserve friendship, and you deserve support. but a supportive friend is not an emotional punching bag, and mental illness does not absolve you of responsibility for your actions. what you say during a mental breakdown doesn’t define you. how you deal with the aftermath though, says a lot.

Reminder

[jumpingjacktrash]

this is such a good post.

please also remember that even if it’s hard to do this, and even if you fuck up a bunch of times, it’s still worth trying and you will still get there eventually.

Why Movies About College are Actually Full of Shit.

[senakoko]

This is very important because my brother and I grew up thinking college was like this. Like we would live out a beer commercial.

And when I got to college and it DIDN’T happen, it stressed me out. I thought I was doing something wrong again. I had, apparently, messed up high school according to the media, and now college?! The supposed best time of my life?! It created a big depression, and living far from home made it worse as I had no friends or family I could immediately talk to. It took a long time for me to understand that movies and commercials and shows that portray college like that is complete and utter bullshit.

Hemp is so threatening to the Commodities Industry, they have Lobbied Against Legalization since the 1920s.

HEMP AND WEED ARE NOT THE SAME PLANT. *huffs*

*clears throat*

They’re cousins. They look similar, but Hemp can be used to make durable clothing, paper, biodegradable plastics, and has high nutritional value. It’s oil is good as an anti-inflammatory if taken in pill form with other medication. If you smoke hemp, you’re not going to get high. There’s no THC in hemp.

Doing the above things with Marijuana is a waste of THC ;p

Pot = medicinal and recreational depressant drug

Hemp = practical and nutritional plant capable of replacing tree-pulp, cotton and synthetic fibers. Also replenishes the nutrients in farming soil when other food crops have depleted the nutrients (Such as corn)

[killingalittletime-deactivated2]

“Until the early 1900s industrial hemp was a valuable crop used all over the world for its strong fibers and oil seeds. Today, however, the common perception of the industrial hemp plant is generally negative and associated with the drug marijuana. 

This perception is the legacy of a century of powerful influences construing hemp as a dangerous drug, even though it is not a drug and it has the potential to be a profitable alternative crop. In the United States, the public’s perception of hemp as marijuana has blocked hemp from becoming a useful crop and product.” Full paper here.

Remember when Anakin cut his son’s hand off and then immediately asked him if they could be pals as if he hadn’t just cut his son’s hand off?

[irhinoceri]

Anakin’s like, “I lost four limbs… I’m not sure why he’s so upset?”

[forcedintostarwars]

“Son, back in my day you had to crawl uphill out of a volcano when you lost a limb, you kids have it so easy.”
