“the grave is run by the student church and the video they made to advertise it is the scariest thing i've ever seen https://t.co/VALDtecGYj
Student: “I want to die.” School: “Okay, we can’t do that, but we have the next best thing-”
Need me a self-care grave
Person: Tf are you doing?
Me: Laying on my emotional support grave

There will be times when you just need a break. From everything. From everyone. From everywhere.
Just a break
7 Key Elements in Self Respect and Self Care
1. Be aware of and respect your limits.
2. Don’t let others rule your life and calendar.
3. Take time out, and embrace solitude.
4. Listen to your heart, and do what’s best for you.
5. Accept that you’re not perfect – for we all mess up at times.
6. Make time for fun.
7. Treat yourself as valuable.
i’m gonna make a movie where two normal ladies fall in love. everything’s chill, no age gap, they’re both out of the closet, their families love them, everything’s fine. the catch is that one lady has a cat and the other lady never figured out what the cat’s name was cause the Owner Lesbian ALWAYS uses a dumb nickname and now it’s been three years and they’re getting married and it’s too late to just ask
It’s garnering more and more urgency because the cat’s importance is growing (the cat is going to be the ring bearer, oh no!)
The First Lady asks her fiancé if they should get a fancy collar with the cats name for the wedding and her fiancé throws her arms around her and says “great, would you go do that tomorrow?”
me: i love you but please, please do not step on my keyboard. go a foot out of your way and go around
my lovable yet ungrateful cat, a troublegirl and a fiend: you could sooner divert a river from its course than deny my nature

Places where reality is a bit altered:
• any target • churches in texas • abandoned 7/11’s • your bedroom at 5 am • hospitals at midnight • warehouses that smell like dust • lighthouses with lights that don’t work anymore • empty parking lots • ponds and lakes in suburban neighborhoods • rooftops in the early morning • inside a dark cabinet
playgrounds at night
rest stops on highways
deep in the mountains
early in the morning wherever it’s just snowed
trails by the highway just out of earshot of traffic
schools during breaks
those little beaches right next to ferry docks
bowling alleys
unfamiliar mcdonalds on long roadtrips
your friends living room once everybody but you is asleep
laundromats at midnight
what the fuck
galeries in art museums that are empty except for you
the lighting section of home depot
stairwells
•hospital waiting rooms •airports from midnight to 7am • bathrooms in small concert venues
I just got the weirdest feeling I swear
OK LISTEN THERE ARE REASONS FOR THIS!!!
A lot of these places are called liminal spaces - which means they are throughways from one space to the next. Places like rest stops, stairwells, trains, parking lots, waiting rooms, airports feel weird when you’re in them because their existence is not about themselves, but the things before and after them. They have no definitive place outside of their relationship to the spaces you are coming from and going to. Reality feels altered here because we’re not really supposed to be in them for a long time for think about them as their own entities, and when we do they seem odd and out of place.
The other spaces feel weird because our brains are hard-wired for context - we like things to belong to a certain place and time and when we experience those things outside of the context our brains have developed for them, our brains are like NOPE SHIT THIS ISN’T RIGHT GET OUT ABORT ABORT. Schools not in session, empty museums, being awake when other people are asleep - all these things and spaces feel weird because our brain is like “I already have a context for this space and this is not it so it must be dangerous.” Our rational understanding can sometimes override that immediate “danger” impulse but we’re still left with a feeling of wariness and unease.
Listen I am very passionate about liminal spaces they are fascinating stuff or perhaps I am merely a nerd.
I, for one, appreciate your passion for liminal spaces and thank you for explaining it to the rest of us.
Hello, I´d like to share with you and your followers something I got from a writer in my fandom years ago. They left already but their words stuck with me. I´m going to share the wisdom with you in my own words.
Every time you get notes/kudos, imagine real people standing in front of you. Did you get 20 kudos? It might seem like it´s not much but would you fit so many people into your livingroom? It´s 20 REAL PEOPLE who decided to read your work and liked it. Imagine giving each of them a hug!
Did you get 50 kudos? Giving 50 hugs would take some time but you could give them cookies instead. Imagine 50 cookies. It´s a lot!
Did you get 100 kudos? Go to a mall and count 100 people, you´ll see it´s actually a lot more than you thought when you saw the number.
Did you get 500 kudos? 1 000? Well, it starts getting a bit overwhelming when you imagine such a crowd but it´s AMAZING that you made so many people happy with your writing. And you´d need a living room the size of a cncert hall to fit them all in :)
I did this and you’re so right- it helps!!! I was feeling super discouraged and lethargic about my writing and not at all motivated. So I went to my most popular story (which I think has about 600 kudos and that’s a lot- I know it’s a lot but it doesn’t really feel real sometimes) and just googled for pictures of a crowd of six hundred people.
That’s a lot of people- that’s waaay more people than I see regularly- and suddenly I feel really motivated to write again because I mean that many people ???? Liked it??? my writing can’t be that bad if they did ????
When fandom was still on LJ, I was writing a story that I released a chapter every week for on Wednesdays. Around 250 people read every chapter on the day it was posted. So, I pictured myself going to a small lecture hall every Wednesday and reading to 250 people, about 20 of which would speak to me after the reading (comments) while the rest of the audience clapped and left, seemingly pleased with what I had written.
It was a great way to motivate myself to get the chapters done. “I have to give a reading on Wednesday! There will be 250 people waiting!”
Sometimes numbers can become just numbers, rather than numbers representing people - but if you can have them be people again, it really puts things in perspective.
Imagine how long it would take if each one of your “Kudos” or “Likes” shook your hand for a few seconds. THOSE ARE ACTUAL HUMANS LOOKING AT YOUR STUFF. Blows my mind every time. Look how many notes this post has. THAT’S AN ENTIRE CONCERT HALL FILLED WITH PEOPLE.
Just to make this clear: the safety of trans and nonbinary people is always more important than the feelings of transphobes.
The most obnoxious thing about the whole veganism debate is the inability from both sides to admit that the other side does have a point. The animal agriculture industry does treat animals like shit. the vegan lifestyle exploits the fuck out of workers. What yall need to accept is there is no ethical way to eat and you’re not better than anyone else for eating or not eating meat. Have you seen the world we live in lol

Have I mentioned lately that Jameela Jamil is my hero??
Yes and no. I love her being open but can we not assume that foster kids are doomed? I was a foster kid who ended up adopted and loved. I’ve worked with foster kids who found loving homes. No not every foster kid has a happy ending but can we please not dehumanise living kids in order to defend women’s rights? I 100 percent am pro choice. I’m an adopted child who saw first hand her “birth” mother struggle to accept her inability to parent - I’m grateful for being alive and I know it cost her a lot, psychologically and I do not believe a woman should be forced to make that sacrifice, but when they do let’s not treat those kids like they are broken or less than. There should be no shame in having an abortion but there should also be no shame in being adopted or a foster kid. Let’s take shame out of the equation and treat everyone with respect.
