Video games are great, they let you try your craziest fantasies. For example, on the sims, you can have a job and a house

Being a calm, gentle, non-reactive person is really hard work, which is probably why many people are none of these things. Personally I think it’s worth it but sometimes one does want to just roll around on the floor wailing at the top of one’s lungs

People in my notes who think I’m repressed or dissociating: you will feel better when you learn emotions are not a binary of Not Feeling It vs Being Overwhelmed By It

Thank you, but do you have any advice for teens?

[kuttithevangu]

So my FIRST piece of information if you’re still a teen is that genuinely as you get older it will get easier to regulate your emotions. During adolescence our brains are undergoing a lot of growth and change that genuinely does make it harder to do this, on a scientific level. However, practicing emotional regulation skills can still help a lot and if you can find something that works it will make life easier going forward

some of you weren’t around for the fan fiction dot net purge of 2002 (when they banned explicit content and mass-deleted thousands of fics) and the livejournal purge of 2007 (when they deleted hundreds of blogs, disproportionately targeting queer & kink content) and it shows

this kind of policing is why ao3 was created

remember, kids, the three laws of fandom are:

- don’t like; don’t read

- your kink is not my kink

- ship and let ship

[rembrandtswife]

your kink is not my kink *but your kink is okay* don't forget that part

Hate to see a transmasc egg thinking he needs permission to be a boy. If you want to be a boy, just do it. “But what if I don’t experience enough dysphoria?” Doesn’t matter. I didn’t ask if being a girl makes you miserable, I asked if being a boy makes you happy.

You don’t need an endless list of reasons to transition, you can transition just because you want to. You can transition just to have a deeper voice, just to have facial hair, just to use a different name, just to kiss boys in a gay way. It literally doesn’t matter. Do what makes you happy and fuck all the rest or whatever that gay little twink said in little miss sunshine.

I want JK to be completely forgotten for being an author. I want people in 50 years to do fun facts like "did you know famed bigot JK Rowling also wrote a childrens book? yeah they were weirdly successful and then she did a total heel turn so everybody forgot about them" I want her to be a punchline for a bad person who happened to write sometimes. like the scientology guy.
