Being in a cult is like having this huge plant take root in your mind, and the longer it’s inner the bigger and more complex the root system.

Finally realizing it’s all a lie and getting out is like yanking the entire plant out of your brain, it’s tough and annoying until you take one massive tug and it’s out. And it fucking hurts.

And now there are holes where the roots used to be. But if you leave them empty the structural integrity of your mind will be damaged. You have to find something else to fill them with. Preferably something healthy.

And if the roots were complex enough, the one tug that pulled the plant out won’t have been enough to free all the roots. A lot of them are still in there, that’s all the toxic internalized ideas you still have stuck in your head. Unlearning them is like pulling those root fragments out, it’s slow and complicated and painful.

Does anyone else remember when governing jerk off member Stephen Lett said "we are living in the final part of the last days, doubtly! The final part of the final part, shortly before the last day of the last days."

This isn't really aging well is it?

i wish all jehovah's witnesses a very laggy memorial zoom call

[big-bad-unbeliever]

being a pimo is like, this is my witnesssona, they love being a humble servant of jehovah and not crying themself to sleep every meeting night. they carry magazines wherever they go and would rather suffer a painful, gruesome death than take your christmas cookies. they have No Problems that can't be prayed about, and no trauma at all. morever, as a Cisgender Heterosexual, and a malleable, inoffensive piece of clay, they have no personality other than Christian #12, which makes them a role model for the whole congregation. truly the spitting image of jehovah's holy spirit.

“my child is fine”

the child was raised in a doomsday cult full of misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, purity culture, fear mongering……..

hey guys just wanted to spread some awareness, the channel telltale on youtube has just started a nonprofit org to help apostates from cults to rehabilitate and start life outside of the cult, the main website is this: http://apostaterefuge.org/our-plans/ and the main way they’re going to make money is a new youtube channel, i dont know which yet, where they will read out letters from apostates so ill give updates if there are any but its worth checking out and reading up on

I woke up listening to Auntie read the daily text and boy how the f u c k did this not flag as culty before!? And also, it's so full of shit 😂

:read more:

'god does not burden us with too many rules' I beg to differ? 😂😭 We got so many goddamn rules on how to dress, where to WORK, how to speak to coworkers, WHEN to work, don't have worldly friends, your main hobbies should be reading JW texts, you should only dress a certain way unless you're a SLUT of a filthy WEAK FAITH MORON, You can't colour your hair cause that's worldly , you can't grow a beard, you can't date unless you want to get married, you can't be ALONE with somebody of the opposite sex, if you're gay you're a monster, if you're trans well lemme tell you you're gonna have a bad time :/, if you disagree openly you get slapped with the apostate label and goodby family...

Anyway yeah that's a fucking lot of rules and they're just the ones off the top of my head.

I swear whenever I hear them talk about this shit I worry they're gonna go full John's Town...

i feel like tumblr would really benefit using tone indicators. a lot of people may use them, but i havent seen a lot of it! as a neurodivergent, it helps us understand the tone of what you're saying. sometimes it's hard to tell whether you're actually mad, or it's just lighthearted, or if you're being sarcastic!

here's a chart of tone indicators if you're interested in using them:

also: please do not use any of these as a joke. do not put /srs if you are not being serious. these tone indicators are supposed to be helping neurodivergents and neurotypicals alike.

EDIT:

I'm seeing a lot of people who are nd commenting which makes me super happy! Some notes I think are good to add to this post:

Some neurodivergents find these to be infantilizing. There is nothing wrong with adding these indicators to a public post- but when having a private text conversation it would be best to ask if the person is okay with tone indicators being used!

Please do not put tone indicators in tags! They dissappear when the post is reblogged.

And here's some notes added by myself:

I put these on here because I want to help; I don't intend to makes fools of the nd community at all.

Some people are saying that it would be too hard to remember all of them- you don't have to! I really do suggest saving the list and referring back to it when necessary. You can also just search it up or ask the person to clarify!

All tone indicators are useful. While yes, some neurodivergents don't think there needs to be so many, it can still be helpful. I find all of these indicators to be helpful to myself. Saying that the nd community only needs a select few is generalizing. There should be no problem with adding other tone indicators when they are more fitting!

Please vote

If you are 18+ and from the US, care about POC, women, LGBT+, climate change, health care, defeating covid, defeating white supremacist’s, etc. you need to vote. If you haven’t sent in your mail in ballot at this point, go vote in person and surrender the old ballot. Make a plan to get to the polling location. Wait in line, no matter how long it takes. Know your voting rights. Know the phone numbers to call incase the Trump “poll watchers” are there, or other forms of voter suppression happen. 

If Trump wins again, people will literally die. You think the covid numbers are bad now? Do not protest vote for Kanye, do not vote third party, do not stay home and say there’s no point. Get your ass to the polls and vote. Yell at your lazy ass friends who told you they’re not voting.

This is it, guys. This is our last chance. We are not getting a do-over. Do not repeat 2016.

Reblog if

It’s 104% okay to come to your DM and just say, “Hi, can we be friends?” And then start asking you random questions.
