they both love to hear about the things you like; music included! granted, you won't often hear them say it out loud, especially from anti, but hey, it's the thought that counts, yeah?

outwardly, anti scoffs at whatever you're making him listen to, acting like its an inconvenience, but there's a reason he lets you play the music for him anyways. he often actually likes the songs and artists you introduce him to; even the ones that seem WAY out of character for him to enjoy. turns out he actually has pretty broad music taste

"dude, this song fuckin' sucks." (his head has been nodding to the beat since it started playing)

of course, his preferences lean more towards rock, death metal, breakcore, and dubstep, which is the type of music he'll blast loud enough to be heard through the entire house without any shame. but, if you occasionally make him listen to a sappy love song or a pop song too catchy for it's own good, you might catch him listening to it with headphones on at 3am.

he tends to get really into his music too, for lack of better phrasing. listening to music can change his entire mood, for better or for worse; naturally, he prefers music that'll get him fuckin pumped up !!!!

and then, we have dark. his taste in music is a lot more enclosed; he tends to prefer slower, gentle music, often in the circle of classical, jazz, swing, sometimes opera and even musical theatre when he's feeling more dramatic. he'd probably take a liking to the rocky horror picture show.

that being said though, he's willing to listen to whatever you'd like him to listen to; he can tell it means something to you, and he'll trust your judgement.

"hm, this is... interesting. who did you say composed this? i'll have to take a look into their catalogue later."

he's not super likely to actively enjoy or seek out a lot of the music you show him, as he generally just doesn't like a lot of modern music. there's definitely the occasional exception though.

maybe try to avoid stuff that's too energetic (anything that anti would like basically), as it can give him headaches.

i imagine trying to jam out with both of them would be a little difficult considering their very very opposing music tastes (anti thinks dark's music is boring, dark thinks anti's music is just mindless noise).

"listen, anti, there's a very distinct emotional turmoil present in the flow of the melody, one that-"

"blah blah blah, nobody cares about your 'emotional turmoil' old man. your music is shit, go argue with a wall"

... you're sure to find something they both like eventually, right?

and even if you don't, well, they'd probably both stay anyways. because if it makes you happy to share your music with them, then it'd be worth it in the end, without question.

maybe you'll find they secretly have an affinity for lady gaga or something :P

the way people use the term "narcissistic abuse" is so weird cuz i used to think it implied a narcissistic person being abused instead of being abused by a narcissistic person 😭

just like how the terms "child abuse" and "animal abuse" mean children and animals being abused rather than someone being abused BY them

You would think, alas

"basic human empathy" don't like what you're implying there bud!

This is saneism and ableism

the entire channel of psych2go

This is unfortunately saneism. They definitely often play into the sensationalization of mental illness and can be quite saneist and ableist.

One customer telling me his coworker was "faking depression" because "I saw him driving a car with his girlfriend and he was SMILING". As if you couldn't smile or even *gasp!* have fun while suffering from depression? (he saw him drive by for like 5 seconds...)

This is saneism.

People saying "abled-bodied" when they are talking about non-disabled people. "abled" is right there.

This is saneism and ableism.

my dad had bipolar disorder. in the 70s, when he was 9ish, his school's psychiatrist said "if you were an adult id say you were manic-depressant, but we all know kids can't get depressed"

and in the 2000s, when it was affecting his ability to work, he tried to get evaluated and read the notes, (he doesn't trust psychiatrists for the most part and learned to read upside-down in order to know what they're writing about what he's saying) the psyche wrote "Mr. [last name] claims to be xyz, Mr. [last name] claims to experience xyz symptoms" and basically just claimed my dad was faking it to get benefits...

This is saneism and ageism.
