Who am I?
I am many people across this vast space we call the internet.
You can find me on Instagram as @backstreet_lobotomy
You can find me on tumblr as @autistic-clownfish and @bacchant-of-dionysus
You can find me on Twitter as @takemyspleen
But most importantly, you can find me in real life at 69 Cocksucker Avenue, Baltimore.
I am Dorian.
*the guitarist from mad max fury road starts playing*
This is me in my oodie
something you have to understand about psychosis is that it is an altered state of reality. the 'rules' of what is possible and therefore how it is appropriate to behave are different than when someone isn't in a psychotic episode. if your friends were possessed, it would be reasonable to be scared of them and to act accordingly. if someone was poisoning your food, it would be reasonable to not want to eat it. the same can be said for any number of delusions someone might be holding or hallucinations they might be having
understand this: when we are in psychotic episodes, we are not acting unreasonably or irrationally. we are acting reasonably for a different version of reality to what exists to you
Try to imagine if a strange man was living in your ceiling and no one believed you. That’s what it felt like for me
Instead of celebrating major festivals, I’m thinking of hosting a seasonal Bacchanalia where the theme is the different seasons and their connection with Dionysus.
Summer Bacchanalia - sweet fruit wine, fairy lights, fire, ivy, grapes, figs, charades and theatre
Autumn Bacchanalia - earthy wine, seasonal decorations, hallucinogenic mushrooms (for those who are comfortable with psychedelics)
Winter Bacchanalia - spiced mulled wine, pinecones and pine, death and rebirth symbols, seance, visiting graves
Spring Bacchanalia - light white wine, ivy, fertility symbols, group sex or erotic games
Any further ideas or suggestions?
I love this idea. If there's already some specific festivals involving Dionysus for the seasons, we could look into expanding those as well.
Some of the festivals feel short, and some could probably even be combined in modern times.
That’s a great idea - if you come up with anything please tag me!
anytime someone from the UK orders a print from me I’m delighted because the addresses tend to be charming and sound completely made-up, I just suspend my disbelief and accept that I’m sending a package someplace with a name like Bristleberry House at Ditchmallow in Brambleford-on-Cotton—incredible lmaooo I bet this gets delivered to you by a badger in a little coat
The replies to this post are fucking hilarious

I am once again posting my ever-growing collection of towns that sound like PG Wodehouse characters:
All of these areas are places you would certainly get killed in on Midsomer Murders.
I mean these are cute but I also need you to know I grew up near a place called Nasty
this post is absolutely bafling as a british person because like 85% of these names just feel so incredibly normal to me it’s so jarring to see how non-british people react to them
you can’t convince me there isn’t some dude - sorry, some bloke named Kirby Underdale who lives near that last sign. he drives a little too fast, it makes everyone nervous, and his neighbors decide to have a sign made and installed instead of talking to him about it.
All real road signs I saw in 2018 in the UK
Someone reposted my top surgery post saying ‘they should remove [my] head’ like who is they?? The fucking tranny police? Because you’re too much of a pussy to do it yourself? If you’re going to threaten me, do it properly. Look me in the fucking eyes and say you want to kill me.
Anyway, I have some advice if you’re trans on the internet - don’t ever let them see you down. Don’t post videos of yourself crying or getting angry and fazed over getting misgendered or whatever. Don’t fucking do it. They live off that shit. They love it. The best way to piss these people off is to be happy and to not give a fuck. They have zero empathy - don’t try to appeal to it. They don’t care about facts or reason, don’t try to argue with them. There’s zero fucking point. They just hate us because they’re pathetic basement dwelling losers who get zero bitches and hate themselves for jerking off to trans porn when no one is watching. You want to know the real reason they don’t like us? It’s the ick factor. It’s the ‘ew that’s weird and makes me uncomfortable’ factor. There’s no actual solid reason other than the shit they tell themselves at night about us grooming kids or whatever it is they think we do in our spare time. Half of them also hate us because we force them to question their sexuality. When a straight man sees a trans woman and his smegma-coated unwashed dick gets hard he goes into a spiral of panic about being gay, and instead of thinking critically about this he lashes out at trans people because that’s easier than accepting the fact that he might be attracted to one of those *things*. They think about us far more than we think about them - remember that. Just because we take up space in their minds doesn’t mean we’re obligated to allow them to take up space in ours. I know for a fact that they’re weirdly obsessed with us because the only way they’re seeing our posts is by actively looking for them. They seek out our content like bloodhounds on a scent.
We consume their thoughts and their lives. Don’t let it do the same to you.
chronic fatigue from mental illness and neurodivergency isn't something you can just will your way out of. your nervous system is part of your body. your brain is an organ. the fatigue is real. you're not lazy. so be kinder to yourself. be gentler with your bodymind.

passing for pre-t trans dudes from someone who’s actually pre-t
hey so this has been requested a lot. i’m a trans dude with an incredibly unsupportive family who have denied me access to gender therapists, a name change, any kind of medical transition and have threatened to disown me if i ever try to start hormones. i’ve been out for three years and i’ve learnt what works and what doesn’t in terms of passing. thought it might help some of you guys out.
❗️Important❗️
This is a quick post and it’s not gonna be put together that well but I think it’s important if it is true. I saw this on Instagram from someone I follow and I think it’s worth a read.
This is incredibly scary and just a reminder to be careful on the internet no matter what!
