love is not just the soft place but also the place where you have to look at yourself and ask, “can i be better? can i be kinder? can i give more? can i listen more? can i grow? can i support?”

Honestly The Curse of the Colonel is one of my favorite Japanese urban legends…

Basically the Hanshin Tigers baseball team had a major victory in 1985 and fans went WILD and stood on a bridge chanting the player’s names, and every time they said a name a fan that resembled the player whose name was said would jump into the canal

BUT there was an american player on the team named Randy Bass and the crowd wanted to include someone who looked like him too, but there were no white people around so they snatched a Colonel Sanders statue and tossed it into the water as an effigy

after this the Hanshin Tigers won nothing for 18 years! The rumor began to circulate that throwing the statue into the canal had angered Colonel Sanders and he had cursed them and wouldn’t allow them to win until they retrieved the statue. Obviously many attempts were made to find it, but no one was successful.

In 2009 the uper body, lower body, and right hand of the statue were found when police thought it was a dead body, but the left hand and his glasses are missing and the Hanshin Tigers still have not won anything. It is said they will continue to lose until they find the last pieces. Here’s the colonel though!

Kentucky Fried Vengeance

[zevveli]

NO! NO! NO! It gets better! This became so widespread that he is popularly depicted in Japanese media among lists of vengeful spirits and spirits that deliver curses. Japanese KFCs utilize the Curse of the Colonel in their training material as a consequence if anyone tries to reveal the 11 secret herbs and spices. Because of the way that the Shinto religion works Colonel Sanders has actually been ELEVATED TO THE POSITION OF MINOR DIETY IN JAPAN BECAUSE OF THIS!

I’ll never be able to reconcile Shel Silverstein’s art and stories with his appearance. He looked like he would gladly murder you with a shard of broken glass and then throw your body directly into a shark.

[sosungalittleclodofclay-deactiv]

you have odd notions about masculine faces.

[glumshoe]

real gentle-lookin’ sneer

the thing with trauma is that it impacts you much later. time doesn’t heal the wound, it only covers it up with dysfunctional coping mechanisms, and then one day you are forced to deal with that. it’s scary because you think, why am i not over this yet? it’s been so many years, why am i struggling now? and i wanna tell you that this experience is one that every traumatized person goes through, and it doesn’t make you a failure, it makes you a normal human being. your mind protects you from the impact as long as it can, but it can’t do that forever, because it’s such an enormous task. nobody can go through trauma and come out unscathed. so don’t beat yourself up about being injured. back then you could only cover these wounds up quickly and now they are infected. that isn’t your fault, but it’s important you tend to them now. and yes, it will take time to heal, but you are not alone in that. there are so many people going through those struggles. you are never the only one, you are never a disappointment. you are normal in the way you deal with trauma. take your time and treat yourself kindly.

taking note of how quickly men calm down after you bend to their will is life-changing because you realize they were never really out of control, they were never really as angry and affected as they appeared. they just knew how to act out aggresssively enough to make you believe it was your fault that they lost their senses.

in 2019 we start recognizing men’s manipulation tactics and start living for ourselves!

[thewitchway]

They were never really out of control.
