I have a severe case of wanting to do everything and ending up doing nothing

Has anyone else noticed that it's bad

never assume your partner feels loved, show them.

I’m not a classicist, but I suspect one of the reasons so many of the Greek gods are portrayed so unflatteringly was less because they were seen as villains than because they represented their domains.  Of course Zeus sometimes misuses his power, that’s what a king does.  Of course Artemis’s wrath is wild and painful, that’s what nature can be.  Of course Hades snatched away a young girl from her mother’s arms, that’s what death does.  This is one of the reasons callout posts for some gods comparing them negatively to ‘nicer’ gods are kind of missing the point.

love the concept of a callout post for a god to begin with. you’re canceled. get down here right now mister.

no really seriously. I tell my clients all the time, DO NOT TRUST any grand conclusions you’ve drawn about life, the universe, and everything if they can be swayed by a burrito.

Growing up is actually all about realizing people don’t inherently dislike you and it’s a bit odd to assume they do

#I was thinking about this exact tweet like yesterday#I try to remind myself of it often#that putting negative thoughts on other people is not only harmful to yourself#but also is actually a mean way to characterize a person you love and care about#and deciding to center how you think about people in a more positive light DOES help with negative self image#like it doesn’t magically cure it and I still deal with it a ton#but it’s easier when you remember that like op said. dislike is not a default state#I usually use this with loved ones but this applies to strangers too#I don’t think malicious thoughts about randos on the street#and maybe I should assume they’re the same way#rather than making a random person a villain in my head in order to hurt myself#still have social anxiety tho lol via @tisyre​

[ID: A tweet by user killdads that reads "One day I said out loud, 'when we're apart I think you must hate me, I picture you seeing my name when I text you and heaving this big sigh because I'm so annoying' and he quietly said 'that's a little mean. I wish you wouldn't picture me that way' and something clicked". /End ID]

I think one thing I really didn't get when I was like 20 is that "small talk" is often a way for people to hint at the bigger deeper things that are going on with them without overloading someone. like it can be an invitation and a chance to test the waters before launching into things that it may or may not be the appropriate time/place/person to talk about those things with.

like when someone asks "how are you," you don't have to respond with "good," but it also isn't necessarily a good context to go straight to "I keep flipping my shit at people I love because I can't regulate my emotions and I'm afraid of them dying or abandoning me," plus if someone isn't used to broaching that kind of topic at the beginning of an interaction it gives them a chance to develop the kind of comfortability to be able to talk about that stuff. some people will reach that point sooner than others, whether it's over 10 minutes or multiple years.

also, I've realized that it's a shame to dismiss talking about things besides our deepest troubles as being meaningless. human connection is meaningful even if it is just about the weather or how our family or our favorite sports team is doing, and knowing how someone feels about these supposedly surface topics tells us a lot about eachother that can be applied to topics you may consider more personal or impactful, and forming that foundation with someone is absolutely not something to be pushed aside as trivial.

Small talk is social calibration. You calibrate a system before you use it for intense or precise work.

[definelisae]

Yess! Agreed! Which is why when people give me short and generic answers I share a lil about what’s been going on with me, and I noticed that that’s when people tend to speak up more and we actually conversate❤️‍🔥

When I say BLM I'm not talking about the organization. I am talking about my black life, your black life, his black life, her black life, their black life, lgbt black lives, and every black life in between. If one more person comes at me talking about how BLM is a corrupt organization, immediately blocked because they obviously don't care to understand what I post or what I stand for.

The face Milhouse made haunted me for years. I don’t know what it is about that grimace that branded itself upon me but… it stuck. It stuck with me for years.

Even now, I feel a certain coldness
