#aggressive affirmations

Hey you! You, the one who's doubting themself!!

You cannot accidentally fake things!! Faking is intentional! If you're scared you're faking being alterhuman, then you are probably Alterhuman! If you're afraid of faking being plural, you're probably plural! If you think you're faking being gay/trans/whatever, chances are, you. aren't. faking!!

It takes a conscious effort to fake things! If you think you're 'accidentally' faking, you're probably not faking!!!

I cannot stress this enough. Doubt is normal, and having it is not a definite sign you are, but if you are and you're worried about being fake - you cannot unintentionally pretend. It's normal and perfectly fine to be wrong and misinterpret things. I used to believe I was starkin, but as it turns out, I'm a Polymorph. It's normal to mislabel things as you go along, but you cannot 'fake' something if you aren't trying to fake it.

I will live out of spite. I will live to see the people who hate me die. I will live a good life as revenge on those who want me dead.

reading through my draft and going “but i don’t want to cut this though... :(” NO EMILY stick to your guns. and it’s not like you’re doing destructive editing. you are literally in a different document. if you end up hating the new version of the story you can literally just pretend it never happened and go back to the previous version. you are not losing anything except time, which you were going to lose anyway just sitting here and pouting over a draft that isn’t working. at least this way you’re actually TRYING SOMETHING

Fuck you to all those times you were made to feel guilty over nothing. Fuck you to everyone who has ever taken their anger or frustration out on you. Fuck you to all those days when you had to carry around that dull, empty ache. Fuck you to the feeling of apprehension every time you felt a bad day coming. Fuck you to all the people who ever put you down or made you feel small. Fuck you to every time you tried your best and someone came along and made you feel like it wasn't enough. Fuck you to those feeling of worthlessness. A massive fuck you to all of those times. You're worth more. You deserve better. You should be appreciated for the wonderful person you are.

Another aggressive self-affirmation for those in need - ferns, symbolizing confidence.

i have a job interview tomorrow in another town so i need to be socially acceptable with makeup/clothes and meek attitude tomorrow. But once that is done i’m reverting back to my crazy old gay self. I will survive! i don't care how weird i look, i’m gonna be proud of who i am! f*** everyone else! i’m taking the path less traveled by and loving every minute! i’m going to love my quirks!
