Im Changing... Augh... I Can Feel My Dna Changing... It Hurts.... *hand Turns Into A Dvd*

This may have already been mentioned, but I also believe that making them human gives the individual such less power. Realizing that the monster you fear is just a human just like you makes you realize that there can be hope and the possible within the seemingly impossible. That’s in no way to say that it makes their actions any less despicable and disgusting in any way, shape or form. Their actions are still wicked and nothing like what your average next door neighbor could even think of doing. However, when we stop putting people on a pedestal and see them at our level (or better yet below that- down in hell for one), it’s an even better step forward to conquering the problem and staying hopeful.

I thought it was fairly normal to feel empathy for bad people.

I thought it was common, even.

But after my Elon/Grimes post... now I'm wondering if I was mistaken about that.

I wrote a post about Trump being traumatized after his assassination attempt and a post about his poor adaptation to aging. I expressed sympathy for him in both cases. But I still maintain my white hot hatred of him and wish for him to face consequences.

Elon was abused by his father. Some of the stories are incredibly tragic. Hearing those stories triggers an involuntary response in my emotional systems that I can't stop no matter how much I despise present-day Elon. I also wonder if that abuse never occurred maybe we wouldn't be dealing with this current clusterfuck.

I have never held so much anger towards a single person as I do my brother. But I also see him as a victim of abuse. I know he was once a really good person and he was slowly corrupted. I feel sorry for him. I mourn the amazing person he used to be. And I still love him.

But that doesn't make me any less angry.

Fascinating is one of the cuntiest words.

Responding to hatemail? A poorly envisioned and understood argument? Someone who is "cooking" but with gunpowder on a propane grill?

It's "fascinating." Followed by a deft "surely" to drive the knife home.

Fascinated by the implications of this conclusion you've drawn. Surely this hasn't been destructive to specifically your cause in the past... [cites 12 discrete instances with sources attached where is has been destructive specifically to that cause]

Ohhhhhh that sucks so hard for you, don't it? Makes you clench your teeth and draw a shallow breath through them for a limply worded retort borne on sour emotion and chagrin.

Oof. God. That's not a good look, but it's absolutely fascinating.

I'm not usually one for schadenfreude, but hitting them with that "fascinating" gets me wet like a slip'n'slide.

homosexuality doesn’t feel like getting hit by a fucking train, not really. but if it was, i’d let it steamroll me over and over and over again. the lengths i’m willing to go for my love are unimaginable. if god can do it, why can’t i?

The thing about this website is that you can NOT predict what posts will do numbers. If you sit down and craft something and think 'this is the most insightful thing I've ever written' it will get one pity like from a ten-year mutual. If you flop over to the computer at 3am to drowsily type some bullshit like 'bones are perpetually unborn teeth' before passing out over your keyboard it'll destroy your notifications for weeks.

brooo i haven’t even watched this and i’m already fangirling, that’s too adorable goddamnit

Ed starting to fall in love with Stede before they've had a single conversation.

"they must have been on drugs when they made this!" = dismissive assumption

"they must have been eating rotisserie chicken when they made this!" = insightful deduction

i wanted to also pose a question. i particularly love using the phrase “i’m just a girl” in response to men when asked about behaviors, especially when they’re questioning me for doing fundamentally normal things and they’re just being misogynistic or bigoted. in my mind i’m using the same “boys will be boys” logic, which usually frustrates the men i’m talking to. i CAN however see how using it can still make it harmful and just a bad rhetoric to use, and can make particularly ignorant men see me (and other women by proxy) as being ditsy, unserious, etc. just wanted to know what exactly people’s takes were on this?

Every time a woman makes a pink job or girl math or girl dinner or I'm just a girl joke I unfortunately have to kill a random man on the streets. And you may think this is cruel or unjust but in reality that's just the way the cookie crumbles

okay so i finished checking if we were friends in every universe and, uh, it turns out we're only friends in 6 of them. but look, i need you to understand these universes vary like crazy, okay? like 6 is actually insanely high, like way higher than most. and one of those is the universe where i accidentally killed the actor who played Dipsy from Teletubbies when i was 7 and my life went completely differently as a result. and we still ended up friends! also you were a girl in that universe for some reason. what? oh, uh, yeah, you were cute as hell. like really cute. did you just fucking giggle

THEY ARE ADORABLE. I LOVE THEM. 🩷
