The Screaming Skeleton

At least until said skeleton comes up with better. Welcome to chaos and insanity.

We are unhappy and mute

If only we could see the endless string of consequences that result from our smallest actions. But we can’t know better until knowing better is useless.

It is okay to shut down sometimes - not everyone needs to know how much it hurts.

It’s so obviously fiction it’s no wonder they have to coax people into delusion (aka “faith”) to believe it.

What do you say to someone that is notoriously manipulative but apologizes for doing so

My dad and I once had a disagreement over him using the adage "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger."

I said, "That's just not true. Sometimes what doesn't kill you leaves you brittle and injured or traumatized."

He stopped and thought about that for a while. He came back later, and said, "It's like wood glue."

He pointed to my bookshelf, which he helped me salvage a while ago. He said, "Do you remember how I explained that, once we used the wood glue on them, the shelves would actually be stronger than they were before they broke?"

I did.

"But before we used the wood glue, those shelves were broken. They couldn't hold up shit. If you had put books on them, they would have collapsed. And that wood glue had to set awhile. If we put anything on them too early, they would have collapsed just the same as if we'd never fixed them at all. You've got to give these things time to set."

It sounded like a pretty good metaphor to me, but one thing I did pick up on was that whatever broke those shelves, that's not the thing that made them stronger. That just broke them. It was being fixed that made them stronger. It was the glue.

So my dad and I agreed, what doesn't kill you doesn't actually make you stronger, but healing does. And if you feel like healing hasn't made you stronger than you were before, you're probably not done healing. You've got to give these things time to set.

a dude came into the library stoned out of his mind and was like, “do I need a library card to look at books?” And I said, “to take books home, yes. To look at them, no” and he looked so relieved. bro was staring at a fish encyclopedia for like an hour and then just left.

This man carried his son to the top of a mountain in order to show him the view. Take note, tumblr. This is what REAL parenting looks like.
