no matter how good i think i'm doing, lying curled up in a ball on my bedroom floor always feels so oddly cathartic and comforting
Ineffable.
One small kindness, in one small moment led to such a marvelous transformation.
all the things wrong with me in your mind
do not try to save me if i have not asked to be saved. i take my shirt off in the dim morning light & trace my ribs. there is nothing underneath my skin that feels the way it should, disasters in the making the way everything spills out of my mouth. white tights & strong thighs & too many different emotions. when you work your muscles and body you are ripping yourself apart to create something new, the sickle twist of my foot in a shoe as i stand in two inch boxes with nothing on. my body is reshaping itself while i think it is growing & the muscles burn in everything. i can still fit two fingers underneath the cage of my ribs or two fingers in between my teeth like a kiss. the crack of my thighs is a tunnel, a cavern, a chasm, a divide we don’t speak about. this body is one i could be rid of. i don’t feel myself here & i’m still waiting for you to tell me i can come home to a place without this fear of living or jumping off of bridges. the things i have let into myself. the things i have yet to un-see. this image of myself in a mirror, rose-lips curled with skirts or stockings or dresses. a dysphoria of what i want & who i am to be. listen, my bones don’t know how to love in other way. they are fractured like the last time i jumped in my red shoes & you caught me wrong with hands under my arms or around my throat nobody cared which. witch. which? if i recall correctly you said i was. might’ve been bitch. i was too busy with the funhouse mirror aimed at my torso to notice any other perception of me. in a necktie with the sunrise i compete to see who burns faster first & i win because there’s nothing left to burn. for such confusion of these walls i can’t see myself think & in the dark it is a good thing because my edges don’t wear out. i never asked for this to happen & in all honesty i’m not broken i’m just waiting for the day when i can sleep without covering my body & these bones.
You'd think it would be a strawman argument, but according to some people simply witnessing a fictional instance of something is enough to blindly convince or convert you to perceiving it as a positive. Often without consequence or regardless of consequence.
If you think the counter-argument sounds ridiculous, that's because the original argument is.
"But this piece of fiction romanticizes [insert bad thing here]!"
Okay. And?
If you aren't self-aware and educated enough to know something is bad regardless of how a tv show or movie or song portrays it, that's a you issue. I've never once watched Hannibal and thought that's a reasonable real life relationship. I've never once watched Game of Thrones and thought hey, maybe fucking your sister isn't such a bad thing.
Romanticizing is simply part of the narrative. If you can't separate the portrayal of something in fiction and how it should be approached in real life, you shouldn't be watching it.
first real day in tennessee! here's some pics i've taken :3
i miss you pretty hooman, ur art still looks the best, AND THE CHIBI ONES GOSH I LOVE EM ALL
i need to find out who you are. where you live. what do you mean by "i miss you".....
Ah it's been some time since I read a 20+ chartered fics and I stumbled upon this fic again at the perfect time🤧 this is the 2nd time I've read the whole series again and i love that I'm still as emotional as I was before
Truly love OCs character here. I felt like she was just enough doubtful without being too dramatic about it, and i love how she's, in a way, self assured about her place in kook's life.
Also love love love the talk they shared about why they drifted apart and what made kook talk to her again. And the talk they had in the cafe after the fight 🥹 it's not easy to find fics with such nice, descriptive dialogs about what happened and why so i loved it a lot 🥹🥹
i’d love you to stay but that’s simply insane // JJK (22)

chapter twenty-two (final)
You had just left your house, already running late, when your phone lit up with an incoming call from Inna. Smiling with a good-natured roll of your eyes, you answered the phone. You already knew what she was going to say.
“Are you there yet?” you spoke into the phone, pressing it against your head with your shoulder while you put gloves on. It was chilly today.
“I’m by the entrance to the restaurant,” Inna replied, her voice manic. “I’m still in my car. I can’t leave. You might have to come and drag me in there by my hair.”
“Breathe,” you said, picking up your phone with a gloved hand before you looked around the empty street so you could safely cross it. “You can do this. It’s just dinner.”
“It’s dinner with his parents,” she shot back, still just as panicked. “I know you’ve known Jungkook’s parents as long as you’ve known your own, but it’s different for me. These people don’t know me. What if they hate me?”
You heard a beep on the line that indicated a new text message and pulled your phone back to check. It was Jungkook, sending you an exceeding amount of question marks and exclamation points; he had clearly noticed your absence.

It’s a common courtesy to ask this after every episode . so . .
how we feeling chat ? 🙏😇
Genuine question for the a-spec community.
Can someone be considered asexual if they strictly like "doing it" by themselves but not with others?
Or is that considered something else??? (asking for a friend)
A real spilt decision here, on which blog they want it on
Basically would you like me to post the yokei godneu stuff at my main blog @tristarnova or at @ask-tami-and-their-friends, I will reblog them to the other blog, but whatever wins will be the main place of the yokei Godneu content
Re: Light Yagami’s presumed sociopathy and why he is objectively not a sociopath /psychopath
For as long as the Death Note fandom has existed, the question “Is Light a sociopath/psychopath” has existed in tandem. Many essays about this already exist, but to my knowledge none of those posts were written by a person currently training to become a psychiatrist which is why I’m throwing my two cents into the pool. As this post’s extremely subtle title suggests, I’m pretty solidly on the side that argues Light is not a sociopath/psychopath. The idea that Light is a sociopath is misinformed at best and most insidiously might just be a symptom of a broader social stigma on mental health. A psychiatric diagnosis is not pre-requisite for violent crime. Those who have a mental health diagnosis are, in actuality, far more likely to be the victims of a violent crime rather than the perpetrators.
Bringing the conversation back to Light specifically, the idea that he’s a sociopath cannot be proven with the information presented in canon. This point is not debatable; there is simply not enough information given for any reasonable psychiatrist to make that determination. Furthermore, canon does not support that theory well either. Frankly speaking, anyone who thinks they can call Light a sociopath solely because he appears to meet criteria on a checklists doesn’t have a clue what they’re talking about. Human behavior is incredibly nuanced and determining what is or isn’t pathological is not nearly as simple as meeting criteria on a DSM-5 checklist. It is simply not a well informed argument to say that Light is a sociopath because he meets x amount of criteria.
While this ought to go without saying, I’ve seen enough people over the years seriously suggest that reading something online means they understand psychiatric disorders that it seems to need stating anyway: the ability to read articles and checklists online does not translate into academic or clinical literacy.
And by the way, the issue of academic and clinical literacy goes for me too, While half a year of clinical psych is more exposure than is typical for the average person in the fandom, I am also still learning and my opinions are not those of a licensed professional. Do take what I say with a grain of salt, but take people who have no training at all with even more grains of salt. There is a reason people go to grad school to study this stuff.
So that all said, Light isn’t a sociopath.
Now you may be going, “Eh, but if nobody can prove he is a sociopath, then you couldn’t prove that he isn’t a sociopath either.” And this is where I sashay in because ruling that out is actually pretty easy because so much evidence goes against it. This post will be going neck deep into the details of why Light is demonstrably not a sociopath. He is messed up certainly, but not a sociopath.
