Why does everyone act like they still have time?
No one can guarantee a future, so why do we all act like we have one? A life lived in fear isn’t a life lived at all, yet I cannot escape the feeling.

kicked out, so she ran to her usual spot
My friend is a great artist :3
congratulations! we were finally able to replace your flesh with steel. however, the only frame we had on hand happened to be that of a cute robotgirl, so you might have to adapt a little.
This is the plot of a handful of CYOA's on r/NSFWCyoa the reddit community where they post, you guessed correctly, NSFW Choose your own adventures.
i am now drawing on my new pc with my old drawin tablet! art is very fun! i did some noelles in wildly different styles. frankly i don't know if i could ever choose just one
A lot of the world now is so infinitely huge and different than 5 years ago that it makes me wanna curl up in a ball under my blankets and sleep forever. It’s so hard to stick to my principles when i’m constantly being bombarded with opposing viewpoints that are put either very eloquently or extremely bluntly and with no way to gauge intention through text w/o tone indicators it makes it very difficult to understand what people are talking about like 90% of the time. I think people should be nice to each other and all of my views are predicated on the idea that the best thing you can do in life is live your own while helping others live theirs but i guess that’s naive and stupid now. Having actual worldviews based in empathy and understanding of others rather than personal biases, stereotypes, and irony is seemingly frowned upon. On the internet you must either care about everything or nothing with no in between.

i hope they never stop using floppy disk icons to indicate saving your file. doesn't matter how obsolete they are it's like honouring someone with a portrait on your currency
normalise saying ''what the fuck is wrong with you'' to mean people
stop making this post cute. it's blunt and violent. it's about humiliating needlessly cruel people not about bickering with loved ones.
what's wrong?
why can't you just tell us where she went?
Folks have got to understand that they probably aren't messed up by some Secret Big Trauma that they just can't remember; but rather by a million tiny microtraumas that they do mostly remember but don't even register as traumatic because nobody actually understood that these things would cause trauma, much less stack on each other over the years.
Whether you're carrying one big rock or a big ol' bucket of sand, it's going to weigh on you just as much.
This is why psychologists have started taking more of an interest in CPTSD in the last 10-15 years. What most people know as PTSD is a response to a single, intensely traumatic event (or even a series of events). However, CPTSD (chronic post-traumatic stress disorder) is caused by living for years in a situation where your nervous system cannot catch a break. Even if nothing huge ever happened to you, you always had to be on guard for a thousand little things that could and did happen.
After years and years of this, your nervous system gets "stuck" in an activated threat response. It never really lets you rest, and if this started when you were a kid, you may not develop a lot of neural pathways that you should have, because your brain was too focused on keeping you safe to bother with little things like "genuine human connection" and "interpersonal attachment."
No lie, Complex PTSD/CPTSD is HUGE.
If you are disabled, if you are queer, if you are chronically ill, if you are the survivor of a toxic but not abusive relationship, if you grew up or lived under the threat of harm but no "actual" harm (or "very little" harm) was done, you may have CPTSD that isn't getting caught because CPTSD looks different from PTSD.
At the risk of falling into a trivialization trap, a lot of things you may not perceive as traumatic actually are. I was embarrassed for a long time in both group and individual therapy to say anything in my childhood was traumatic, because I was sitting with people who had suffered horrible physical or sexual abuse. But here are some things that are, in fact, traumatic and - when they occur over a long period - can set you on a course of maladaptive coping for decades if not addressed:
Being told or shown that your emotions are not valid, that you have no safe place to express them
Parents or caregivers oversharing graphic trauma from their past with you
Threats of physical violence, even if not carried out
Being told or shown that affection or approval is contingent on competency or academic success
Prejudice from inside OR outside the family (homophobia, racism, body shame)
Mocking or dismissal of things that are meaningful to you
If you constantly feel unworthy, afraid, ashamed, or even flat and emotionless, it's worth exploring why. And, because you've been so consistently undermined and minimized, you may feel like a fraud for being upset or functioning poorly. You're not a fraud; it's years of conditioning telling you "I should be able to handle this" or "lots of people are worse off than I am so I shouldn't complain." Your conditioned brain is lying to you; you won't be able to open yourself to the joy of trusting relationships with others OR do meaningful things to help those who are worse off until you do the work to melt the block of ice surrounding you. All my love to you, friends.
Pete Walker is a therapist that's been on the cutting edge of this for many years, and he has a website here with plenty of free resources. (Just straight PDFs of parts of his books!)
Also, his books are not that expensive, well-written, and truly helped me process a lot of my trauma. I did a ton of it alone because I couldn't find a therapist for years, and those books (complex ptsd: from surviving to thriving & the tao of fully feeling) really changed the trajectory of my life.
He talks about grieving, about changing our internal dialogue to one that's positive instead of negative, talks about SEVERAL trauma typologies, and more.
As someone who has been diagnosed with the big trauma PTSD but most of their problems were coming from the little stuff that was CONSTANT and made me run on 2000% all day every day, this guy is a lifesaver. I'm so different from how I was before, especially with the help of some in-person therapy. Finding the right person makes all the difference, truly.
You can pick up his books on the website, but if you're looking for resources on this and you have the space and support to be able to do some of your own work (please don't do it completely alone unless you must) check out the sidebar over at pete-walker.com. He made this incredible resource that not everyone knows about and I try to share it where this comes up.
Thank you for informing people about this.
Reblogging for the additional info and resources, and to emphasize that the C does indeed stand for "complex," not "chronic." (Understandable that people would get mixed up, though.)
transmisogyny runs on apathy. never forget this.
the fundamental truth that underpins every one of these harassment campaigns is that it is always easier to discard a transfem than it is to tangibly support her. the people who run these campaigns are depending on you to burn bridges with whoever they tell you to, because it then enables them to do whatever they want to their targets with minimal pushback.
it's easy for transfems to support our sisters, because it's in our own self-interest. but nothing will really improve until the rest of the trans community makes an explicit effort to stand with us. this will come at great expense to them; they will lose their priveleges as an assimilated queer, and there will be almost no benefit to them. but regardless, it must be done.
if you are a non-transfem trans person reading this, please think seriously about the kind of person you want to be when the next transfem finds herself in the crosshairs.
if you think of yourself as a trans ally, the first thing you have to accept is that trans is just an adjective, like skinny, black, disabled, or brunette. trans men are properly men and belong in that category just as much as men with any other modifier before their name. trans women are properly women and belong in that category just as much as women with any other modifier before their name. trans women aren't women because it's polite to accept them for who they say they are, they are actually women and are treated as an underclass of women in society, like women from any other marginalized group. trans men are treated as a marginalized class of men, while still gaining advantages from being men in a patriarchal society. that's what we mean when we say that trans women are women and trans men are men. it's not just a call to be polite and accept people on the surface, it's a statement of reality and how people function in society
