My fave thing about retail is when they think someone stealing they want you to watch them and give them extra customer service. Nope. I am not security. I am not trained in that. I am sales associate. The minute you think they are stealing get security. If they are willing ti break one law I am not staying around to see what they think of assault. If I wanted to risk my life I would have become a security guard lol.
“Lying to yourself” wasn’t much of a meaningful concept in the Christian faith I was a part of.
On the whole, we all live a balance between being honest about who we are and striving to be better. We wouldn’t, for instance, consider it lying if you are attempting to cultivating being nicer, or more confident, even if your internal thoughts and feelings didn’t match.
But in the Christian faith I grew up in, it was acceptable to treat the entirety of yourself in exactly that way. We were suppose to “die to self” to say “not my will, Lord, but yours” to ask God to change everything about us so that we looked more like him.
So because an external set of identities and beliefs were supposed to take precedent over ourselves, “lying to yourself” didn’t make much sense.
We were told to disregard whatever our hearts and minds were telling us. If you’re unhappy, God doesn’t want that, so tell yourself you’re joyful, act like it, and that’s all that matters. If you hate your spouse, well, tell yourself you love them, playact actions of love, and don’t pay any mind to how you feel about them. This is the same faith that is a stickler about saying that being gay is a behavior – because if all you have are the feelings, those aren’t meaningful. Just throw them out, declare them not real because they don’t line up with God’s truth.
It would be easy to say that this is impossible, that eventually the truth of a person will shine forth, that no one can dissociate away from their own thoughts and feelings and perspective enough to truly make this work. But that’s what’s scary about it – you can.
When the foundation of yourself is built on a notion that playacting is different than lying it is easy to have within you a lot of various thoughts and feelings and identities that you disregard because they don’t line up with a particular set of beliefs. So much of yourself becomes floating pieces you are not allowed to integrate into your identity or you risk disobeying God.
The hard part isn’t forming a sense of self contrary to everything you feel and think and believe. The hard part is the day you wake up and realize that you’ve been burning yourself alive because you told yourself that the pain was a sin to feel, drinking bile you convinced yourself was fresh water, and tearing into your skin because you were taught you were just like a plant that needed pruning. The hard part is finally recognizing it as lies. They were all lies, lies sanctified, justified, and made righteous, because they were done in the name of serving God.
THIS!!!!! I can relate to this so much
I don't miss god. I miss myself. It breaks my heart when I see the pieces of myself that I gave away in order to be like god, when in reality I was already more kind and loving than the god I believed in. I was stripping away my humanity in order to be holy. Such a sick religion.
well kids in light of the fact that I finally caught up, Extremely Good Tony #Looks, Parts Unknown Edish: A Visual Journey (or, Around the World in 80 Neutrals)
look at this five o’clock shadow, popped collar motherfucker… Libya was not ready

let’s also never, ever discuss Hawaii, that second one in particular, I’m delicate, thank you
look at these fucking monochrome boyfriends in Marseille… Eric laughing patronizingly at Tony pontificating is a mood. I would watch a seventeen-hour action movie/buddy comedy starring these two and so would you, don’t lie to me
(bonus bc I just noticed this fucking sweater and I’m gently dying about it?)
aging punk about to get day drunk at the cricket match and hit on someone’s wife in Houston

Danny Devito and Jeff Goldblum both give off chaotic energies, but in opposite directions. One is the yin to the other’s yang. However, both are everyone’s uncle
Danny is ur dad’s brother and Jeff is ur mom’s
The Other: “You will have your war, Asgardian. If you fail, if the Tesseract is kept from us, there will be no realm, no barren moon, no crevice where he can not find you. You think you know pain? He will make you long for something as sweet as pain.”

“You weren’t raped, you’re just lesbophobic.”
“She shouldn’t have posted provocative photos!”
“She shouldn’t have been dressed like that … she was asking for it!”

As I get older I’m finding that a lot of the “intellectuals” I used to admire are actually just condescending and pretentious. And also realizing how much more important it is to be present, considerate, and empathetic because nobody really knows what they’re talking about and anyone who claims to know everything about anything is feeding you bs.
“When I was young, I admired clever people. Now that I am old, I admire kind people.” - Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel
I am also realizing that actual intellectuals make their subjects easy to understand, and faux intelectuals will attempt to baffle.
“If you can’t explain it to a six year old, you don’t understand it yourself.”
- Albert Einstein
