I remember first learning that you can cry from any emotion, that emotions are chemical levels in your brain and your body is constantly trying to maintain equilibrium. so if one emotion sky rockets, that chemical becomes flagged and signals the tear duct to open as an exit to release that emotion packaged neatly within a tear. Everything made sense after learning that. That sudden stability of your emotions after crying. How crying is often accompanied by the inability to feel any other emotion in that precise moment. And it is especially beautiful knowing that it is even possible to experience so much beauty or love or happiness that your body literally can’t hold on to all of it. So what I’ve learned is that crying signifies that you are feeling as much as humanely possible and that is living to the fullest extent. So keep feeling and cry often and as much as needed

SHIT WHAT

Also let yourself cry. It really is a biochemical release valve to dump out all the chemicals that make you feel stuff.

I honestly think one reason men in western culture have so many problems is that we don’t let them cry, and literally their brains get stuffed with all this crap that doesn’t have a release valve. Men, please cry. You’ll feel better. It’s ok. You are not lesser for taking care of your health.

This is why tears from different emotions look different under an electron microscope. They’re literally made up of different things. 

Happy tears are structurally different than sad tears than angry tears than overwhelmed tears etc.

a man: men now have to think before they speak, they are afraid to be criticized or accused of something, can we believe that we have to live like this now?? uwu

all the women that had to grown up being super self-aware of what they wear, what they think, what they say, how they act, where they are, with whom, etc in every aspect of their life, all the time, in this sexist society (especially women of color, non-straight women and trans women): good. finally you all have to learn how to behave.

having love in your heart will literally save you from the otherwise cataclysmic experience of being a human being

Whenever a wise guide in a fantasy show tells the hero they have to “let go of attachments” to be a hero I just want to smack them in their stupid face because our love for others is what drives us to do good you stupid fucking mentor figure.

I uhhhh, got a little heated about Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette in my latest video.

I know I just reblogged this, but definitely check out the whole video on YouTube - it’s amazing and v educational to someone whose American Education failed them

Sofia Coppola has a bad habit of doing this.  It happened in shit with “The Beguiling” when she wanted to do the whole ““““Soft Southern Gothic Aesthetic””““ whilst simultaneously ignoring slavery lmao. And Lost in Translation Like yeah the cinematography jumped out but so does the white feminism (whether or not it was satirical that’s besides the point -look at that marketing) So if you’re looking for stories about The Gilded Cage abt rich white girls while entire swathes of the poor or PoC are used as decorations/time period pieces or completely erased here’s ur fave director.

child: *is passionate about absolutely anything*

parent: gotta insult it

[deleated-123-deactivated2021090]

child: *becomes ashamed and embarrassed about the things they’re passionate about and doesn’t share their interests in fear of getting insulted about it*

parent: why aren’t you interested in anything? why don’t tell us anything anymore?

i understand that having a pet is really good for mental health (TRUST me i know) but otoh… if u cant consistently take care of ur pet u shouldnt own it. if u cant regularly change ur cats litter or walk ur dog daily or clean ur fish tank or WHATEVER then its cruel to keep ur animal in those conditions… ur their entire world u gotta treat them right. and if u cant do that then you need to reasses if youre really ready to look after another living being like that
