Anxiety is stupid because your brain will go ‘what if they kill me with hammers for talking to them’ and it’s people you talk to regularly who have never given any indication that they’d kill you with hammers

[dracoj]

what they dont tell you about adulthood is that it’s startlingly easy to go long periods of time without having any fun at all not even a little bit. btw this makes ur brain try to kill you with knives and hammers.

you know what kills me when i think about bucky? he wasn't always so quiet. he was quite the opposite actually. lively. fun. wanted steve to loosen up and have a good time.

bucky's not just haunted by the winter soldier life when he sleeps. it seeps into every waking moment. it's constantly on his mind. he's quiet because the thoughts are too loud.

i love when people draw characters like concepts rather than humans

it’s so fun

like batman js being a blob of darkness or kori is js a puff of hair

peak character design right there

I feel like we may be misconstruing the idea of “borrowed time.” Which, I can understand why.

Abbot suffered the loss of his leg and his wife. Two experiences that would devastate anyone.

After everything he has been through, he survived. He knows he’s lucky to be alive and does not take that for granted.

idk about you guys but one of the things that is making me most excited about s17 is just how willing they are to look ugly as hell! to look weird as hell!

bald beardless charlie, mac's farmer tan, sweaty crazed eyes dennis as an emt, The Green GuysTM. imo one thing the newer seasons missed was that rcgk didn't want to get ugly for the show like they used to but that does not appear to be an issue in s17 and i am HYPED

Re: Amane Momose from the perspective as an ex cult member part 3, with the context of the T3 drama and music vid:

Oh thank FUCK. An addendum to my last rant about her about hating her, she FINALLY took the step she needed for me to be like. YES!!! PROGRESS!!! YOU'RE DOING IT!! I'm satisfied. Es got through to her, Shidou got through to her, Mahiru got through to her, we can see the wavering cracks in what's the start of healing and reconciliation. I'm so happy.

I already was gonna vote inno against Milgram as a concept but with her voice drama lines, especially these two:

I feel confident she can now grow. Like AGHH. YES girl. YES. Let's learn what we did was wrong and heal! We genuinely haven't gotten the impression she was gonna waver at ALL until this trial, which is what frustrated me to no end (and also why I disliked her because I WAS her). Because unless there was that doubt, and that doubt was verbalized and comprehended beyond a vague "feeling", she would've grown up to do the exact same thing as her parents.

But not anymore. She's gonna work on it. She's gonna think about it even if it'll take time. And that's what's SO important. Her foot's in the door rather than the door not even being in the same room.

Anyways let that be a testament that my hate came from "Please give me a CRUMB that you see how wrong this is and won't grow up to make cult 2.0." We were gettin' NOTHING. She was incredibly steadfast, zealous and devout in a way that was indicating a VERY dark path. Because I know that there was a point when I was in my born-'n-raised cult that I was planning on becoming a full on devotee, going celibate and traveling the world. And I would've absolutely committed until I had those morsels of doubt, which Amane finally has!! And recognizes them!! Ughh

The RELIEF is all. Good. Satisfying wrap up to her story. That eases my rollercoaster of emotions I feel and felt towards her.

Tldr growth always starts with

Okay REAL non-joke answer, growth with unhealthy behaviours starts with realizing you might be wrong.

That includes cult mentalities.

Okay ex cult member guy out 🤙
