"this blog supports lesbians who say they like men" but also "you cant headcanon v as a lesbian bc shes canonically liked men" soooo which is it lmao 💀

@md-confessions and this blog are run by different people, what i (screenie) believe in and decide to support isn't necessarily what mod 🌙 also supports. this is also why @md-confessions is on hiatus while this blog isn't, and why the tagging system is kind of different here.

Every time someone in this fandom says something along "x and x trauma bonded over…" I audibly say "yikes!" to myself… it's a reminder of how the term has almost lost its original meaning now. For those who don't know—

Trauma bonding is: a connection between an abusive person and the individual they abuse.

Trauma bonding is not: bonding over similar trauma.

—🫀

adding into this: there are seven stages of trauma bonding,

love bombing. a manipulation tactic in which the abuser excessively flatters and praises in order to gain the victim's trust.

trust and dependency. after the love bombing, a sense of trust begins to bloom, making it seem like the abuser and the victim have a bond.

criticism. the abuser starts to excessively criticize the victim, creating a hostile environment of constant devaluation.

gaslighting. the abuser denies or "twists" events, aiding to make the victim question their perception of reality, memory or sanity. note that gaslighting is intentional.

addiction. the victim gets emotionally addicted to the reinforcement that comes after the abuse. see: love bombing.

loss of self. the victim loses their sense of self and may feel out of touch with their own desires, opinions and boundaries.

resignation and submission. the victim gives in to the abuser.

please don't use the term incorrectly. trauma bonding is awful and shouldn't be seen as a good thing.

i may be incorrect on some definitions. please feel free to correct me if that is the case.

dear tumblr Murder Drone roleplay blogs- please, for the love of god, stop tagging the main series name in your posts. you are clogging up the entire MD tag here on Tumblr and I can barely find art when I go to the latest tab. I hate blocking you guys because I also RP, but please. Have some courtesy for your fellow fans.

also put /'s or .'s better words if you write out the name because otherwise it'll also appear in the tag (if you write it on a post. like, mur.der dro.nes or mur/der dro/nes. thank you. love ya'll. just can't have you clogging up the feed :'c )

have you ever thought about looking at the murder drones fanart tag instead of the main tag?
