reblog to tell a 14 year old that these are the very, very hard years and they're not wrong to feel the way they do.

I had a fifteen minute long crying session yesternight over the fact that all I was 10 years ago, at the ripe old age of 14, is lost and lonely, and now, at 24, I am neither and that filled me with so much gratitude

reblog to tell a teenager that these aren’t actually the best years of your life and that things can and will get better when you have independance and maybe are away from your situation right now.

Its me reblog to tell me that

[sevastiel]

Same thing with young adults. It can still get better. Your thirties aren’t when you’re getting old, that’s 70s-80s and we all know old people can be cool as hell anyway.

It might take time. More than has already passed, but it will get better.

It gets better. It does, right? Yeah. Yeah it gets better.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

shockingly getting out of that fucking house and into anywhere else does wonders for your ability to function!

characters who get the "i can fix him" urge not because theyre a saint who loves everyone inherently but because they think "if i can prove there's good in everyone, maybe i can start feeling like i'm worthy or being seen as good too."

it's very frustrating seeing otherwise well-structured posts about media literacy and critical thinking bookended with statements about "nowadays", "nobody has literacy anymore", "this generation is so anti-intellectual", and the like, unquestioningly falling into better past fallacies.

Do we really think the 80s and its Satanic Panic were better at critical thinking? what about the 40s? the Victorian era? societies have always had problems with critical thinking and literacy, because most societies have dealt with propaganda, corrupt leadership, difficulty providing education (due to poverty or discrimination or other issues), and/or people who resist critical thinking (due to privilege or circumstance or what have you). we can criticize media trends without pulling a "well back in the GOOD OLD DAYS" about it.

I'll always pick chardee over macdennis, because while mac and dennis share a freakuency, charlie and dee are literally prepared to eat people together under no real pressure

Why does the best content never last?

I'm not sure how to describe it. Dropout partnering with the LAPD and catering to/spending egregious amounts of money on awards shows nominations, Critical Role ditching livestreams and paywalling community interaction, literally everything Roosterteeth did, these home grown productions grown organically and independently always seem to end up falling into the exact same traps as major corporate studios. It feels like these groups we love so much always end up losing their identity just as they perfect their craft and I think I've figured it out.

That perfect balance, that point where production value is high but that little bit of jank and the rough edges give them an earnestness that invites the community to think "we are a part of this, not just customers."

Why does no one ever say "this is perfect, this is enough." Groups either stay tiny and niche and entirely indie and never get to express their full potential, or they skyrocket and abandon all the quirks that made their community fall in love in favor of chasing a lowest common denominator for the widest audience.

It's ironic, it's almost like these institutions that we love so much can't become their perfect selves unless it's only in the pursuit of mediocrity.
