[raan-miir-tah]

GRIPPING EVERYBODY’S SHOULDERS SO TIGHTLY RIGHT NOW. YOU WILL VOTE FOR HARRIS. YOU WILL RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS NO MORAL WAY TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE US AND YOU WILL STILL VOTE TO STRATEGICALLY PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS.

im about to start catching these annoying ass gnats and feeding them to the spider that lives in the nook where i toss my cigarette butts.

[veeranger]

the whole “i used to be a teen who hated authority only to grow up to become the authority that hates teens” is a bad bad thing that practically every other generation has fallen into and we all need to make an extremely conscious effort not to repeat the fucking pattern

[jezi-belle]

Studies have shown that the shift starts to happen around age 30. If you’re close to that, make a conscious effort to be open to and accepting of younger people. I’m 31 and paying close attention to how I react to young people and new trends and shit and trying to keep myself from developing those thought patterns.

It is imperative you befriend people other than those of your own generation. It’s harder to lump people together if you know some of them. This is why you should also pursue friendships beyond your race, ability, religion (or lack thereof), and class. Humanity relies on relating to each other.

[cock-holliday]

Not only that but being aware of (and critical of) the idea: “I felt powerless and now want power over others.” Befriending those outside your demographic doesn’t do much if your thought process is still “I suffered so you should too” or “I earned this spot—you can consider me a peer when you get here too” instead of challenging those systems and perceptions.

Too many adults who work with kids think this way. Simply being around the kids doesn’t challenge this mindset, you need to deconstruct how you think about power and authority.

You were right to feel like you weren’t being listened to or treated like a person—don’t repeat it on new kids.

IS SHE VAPING WITH HER PUSSY?!?!

[gemsandjunk]

If your goal is to normalize gender-nonconformity you’re gonna have to accept that some people will fuck with gender as hard as they can while still being unequivocally, 100% cis and that is okay. There’s no egg to crack or callout to write. This is a good thing actually.

[cipheramnesia]

Tumblr stop recommending me horny sapphic blogs that all say men dni in the pinned post, go back to sending me posts from the one that's just horny all the time please, I want the fat furries and the queer freaks that are way less respectably normal about me and my body.

[cipheramnesia]

Some of these people got a little too normal about trans people, like normalized the exclusionary categories right back into place. I appreciate the appearance of unconditional acceptance of a basic as fuck trans woman like myself and all, but it feels like I'm bein fenced in to try and leave out the unconditional acceptance of gender as weird and messy as fuck and not always palatably neat like unto men dni.

I get the gist of it but which part of my icky sticky lengthy life isn't allowed to interact per se? Am I all of me allowed present and acceptable company in my life of the now not a guy, but accompanied by the life lived before such changes, or will only the desirable present tense serve the sapphic desires? My self and history amputated, lobotomized perhaps, excised into the biological tissue bin of men dni? Know what I mean? But even aside all that personal messiness, and I see what it's saying and sure enough it's not About Me, even all that aside, you're gonna ask "are normal about trans-" and this is me, finger to your lips saying no. I'm not normal. Maybe someday the clusterfuck of gender will be freed from this horror of normalcy as a necessity of acceptance in down amongst the fences. But not for now, for now I'm gonna need you to stop and be less normal, or not, I'm not making a rule or anything. I'll just, yknow. Not Interact.

A lot of pop psychology gets thrown around and since I already have a headache, here's preventing you lot from making it worse.

Love-bombing: A manipulation tactic of increasing affection and grand gestures before or after doing something abusive, specifically to weasel one's way out of consequences.

What it is not: A streak of affection and generosity towards friends/loved ones.

Trauma-bonding: Knowingly traumatizing someone to take advantage of their vulnerable state, to then act like the "hero" or the one who cheers them up.

What it is not: Bonding over similar traumas.

Gaslighting: *Knowingly* convincing someone they cannot trust their own perception of a situation in pursuit of one's own narrative.

What it is not: Misaligned perception of events.

Narcissist: Someone afflicted with Narcissistic Personality Disorder, a traumagenic cluster B disorder, that struggles with self-obsession, paranoia, craving validity from the public, delusions of grandeur, and social disconnection.

It is not: Your rubbish ex that cheated on you.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

"Disabled people should be allowed to be as independent as we can be" and "disabled people should not be pressured to be hyper-independent in order to not wind up in nursing homes against our will" are two thoughts that can, and should, exist at the same time.
