PSA: Changing your mind, changing your opinion, is not a bad thing. It doesn’t show weakness or lack of conviction. It shows that you can take new information on board, that you can learn, you can process and assimilate things you hadn’t previously realised. Changing your mind is GROWTH.

meaningful and deep relationships require difficult conversations. often unpleasant conversations about how we can improve and how we can be better friends, siblings or partners to the people around us. special bonds aren’t entirely made of good moments, but the moments that were hard and yet you still made it through because you care about the other person.

Just because your feelings are valid, this doesn't mean that every possible reaction to them is. Yes, it's okay to be angry - but it's not okay to take it out on someone by breaking their stuff. Yes, it's okay to be jealous - but it's not okay to sabotage relationships. Yes, it's okay to want attention - but it's not okay to lie to get it. And so on. Your feelings are always valid, but you still have a responsibility for how you choose to express them.

it’s never too late. for anything: to apologize, to chase a dream, to try again, to forgive, to pick up a hobby, to fall in love, to change. you can do it whenever you want

little avoidant personality disorder things

not being able to do school/job work with others or even go at all

feeling like youre being judged by everyone including strangers

having to ask if people still want to talk with you after a breakdown

distancing yourself from friends when it looks like theyre doing fine without you

thinking everyone else is better than you and that they deserve more

restraining yourself in relationships because youll be rejected otherwise

fearing criticism even when you need it

struggling to make friends or meet new people at all believing they wont like you

Dear Narcissists…

[feijoaaas]

if straight girls knew of even half of how much lesbians and bisexual girls hold themselves back and restrain themselves and dilute themselves in order to appear non-threatening and non-predatory to those same straight girls

once we’ve made you aware of our orientation, we barely allow ourselves to look at you and smile at a joke you just told, in case you’d assume we’re into you, just because we smiled at you once

but guys can catcall, make inappropriate comments, talk about girls as trophies, talk about how they ‘become a real man’ only after they’ve had sex the first time, break girls down into body parts, take revealing clothing as an open invite for sexual interest, go on about how good they are in bed after receiving an initial ‘no’ as if their dick is a product that the girl just doesn’t know she wants yet and the guy didn’t sell it on his first try??? and many more things

@ straight girls, please. please. take your homophobic hypocrisy and realise that girls who like girls are not your enemy.

if we flirt with you, because not all of us have amazing gaydar and sometimes we just gotta try, and you’re not into us? if you just say so, the most likely scenario is that we will sincerely apologise and then move to the other side of the room or in any other way leave you as well alone as we possibly can.

we are not your enemy.

and we don’t like girls just because you’re girls. you are not body parts. you are not a trophy. we don’t call your outfit cute because we want to get between your legs. you are not new territory that we want to conquer. you are not an area on a map that we want to mark with an “x” so we can brag about how we’ve been there.

you are not a pussy that we want to defeat.

the predatory lesbian and the hyper-sexualised bisexual is a myth.

we are not your enemy.

You can always start again. Clean out your social media. Create a new account for your new taste in music. Study or work in a new city. Start socialising with new people. Choose a new signature scent and style and purge the outdated parts of yourself. If you don’t like where you’re at, but you don’t know what to do about it - try starting again.

Executive dysfunction is like when you’re in a dream and you try to run but for some reason it’s slow and just doesn’t work. It’s like why can’t I run? I have legs and they work but I’m still barely getting anywhere. That’s how it feels when I know I need to do something but I just. can’t bring myself to do it

THE CUTEST THING IN THE WORLD

[communistkenobi-archive]

“my battery is low and it’s getting dark” is so hauntingly human, so crushingly lonely. I can’t articulate the deep, profound ache that sentence evokes. It’s acceptance and defeat and terror and sadness all at once, all from one tiny machine we asked to explore the stars for us.
