[support-for-the-suicidal]

suicidism is the way people minimize the reasons why someone might be suicidal in an attempt to get them to stay alive.

they always say things like "suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" but never get into how some of these "temporary problems" (capitalism, climate change, etc) will take dozens, maybe even hundreds of years to fix, if they ever get fixed at all.

they say "there's a hundred reasons to stay", leaving out that their reasons to stay are minuscule things like "watching the sunset" or "petting a cute puppy", meanwhile suicidal people's reasons for leaving are "i don't want to live the rest of my life paycheck to paycheck" or "i'm tired of living in a world that's actively hostile to my existence".

the #YoureNotAlone crowd just loooooves making suicide out to be this stupid decision that people only make when they're just too dumb to appreciate life. when that's just not the case At All.

This is suicidism. Sometimes, the "temporary problem" is an incredibly painful experience too live through - one that makes death preferable than living through it. Sometimes, the problem isn't even temporary! Things like disability/chronic illness, death of a loved one, or trauma can all contribute to suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation often doesn't occur when someone doesn't appreciate life, but rather, when there is nothing/few to appreciate.

i need to complain about the term “survivors of suicide” because babygirl you did not survive anything. your loved one died by suicide but it was not an act committed upon you. if anything the people who survived suicide are those who attempted suicide and lived.

[support-for-the-suicidal]

suicidism is people constantly making it about everyone BUT the suicidal person.

"people would miss you" I AM IN PAIN

"someone would have to find the body" I AM IN PAIN

"think of your family" I AM IN PAIN

what about me? why does no one care how i feel about it?

This is suicidism. I've said this multiple times and I'll say it again: while other people can be affected by someones suicide/ideation, the suicidal person's feelings should always be prioritized.

If you have a fucked up sicknasty fanfic you've been thinking about sharing but are unsure, this post is your sign to run to AO3 and Just Do It: 1. Someone somewhere wants to read it. Even if it's only one person, that person matters

2. Your creativity matters and so does your ability to share it

3. Serial harassers in fandom spaces are beginning to express discomfort that sites like AO3 completely strip their ability to do anything about fic they don't like, sometimes going as far as leaving entire fandoms due to the influx of "problematic fiction without a chance for consequences to the author". Posting your fanworks to AO3 actively contributes to making harassers feel unsafe and powerless in fandom

4. Militant anti-fanfic content creators also cannot do anything about fic posted to AO3

5. You can post anonymously to AO3, with the ability to de-anonymize at any time

6. You can moderate comments before making them visible on your fic, restrict comments to logged-in users only, or turn off comments altogether, meaning you can post anonymously and completely turn off comments if you choose

Oh no it’s one of my hyperfixations.

So fun fact I am currently in school to learn how to build affordable housing. They don’t teach you how to murder strip malls so I must learn this on my own. Someday the two will fuse and I will be an angel of death for shopping centers. This is my calling.

There have been attempts to turn malls into affordable housing. Sadly retrofitting commercial properties into habitable living spaces is usually more expensive than just making a new building. All that big empty space with uniform climate control is cool and all but it’s not habitable living quarters. you know what it’s GREAT for????

HYPER-LOCAL AGRICULTURE BAYBEEEEEEE

Indoor farming got a bad rep recently because it couldn’t become profitable fast enough to satisfy the capitalists funding it. But these places have loads of height for more space-efficient vertical farms, and while plants won’t need the blasted AC of most shopping malls, they probably do appreciate a steady climate (something that’s getting harder to find outdoors).

“But wait,” you say, “the food court has all those fully outfitted kitchens. It would be a waste not to incorporate that into daily living.”

hello????????? Literal farm-to-table restaurants that grow their vegetables right across the hallway are you KIDDING ME??????????????? (better keep that shit cheap tho no gentrification on my watch)

“But wait wait wait,” you say again, “how can it be *local* farming when there’s no housing nearby? Also this isn’t about food we need fucking housing????”

I hear you, man, I hear you. But you know what is right around a shopping mall? Acres upon acres of the most depressing use of land in history: fucking dog shit crusty ass empty fucking parking lots.

The amount of space these bad boys take up is STAGGERING, and it’s often enough to fit an entire neighborhood. Just check out what this one architect in Maine did to replan the Portland mall (they won an award for it):

*everything on that map that’s in color is currently flat cement*

One mid-sized mall in Maine can fit an entire downtown area WITH GREEN SPACE in its parking lot, and *still have room for parking.*

So yeah, the housing in malls idea is cool thinking. Think bigger. WAY bigger.

Think of all the space strip malls and their parking lots take up. Imagine all that space becoming housing and small businesses and third spaces and NATURE.

These stores are dying fast. The real estate is cheap as fuck. It is extremely doable within the next decade. We just have to fucking do it.

This is why I think urban planners and architects are so cool. They can look at an unused space and think, "This is my playground, my world." And create a space for the people

So we have DreamWorks face and Pixar Moms, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone mention Warner Bros villains and their teeth
