Heal Up

shout out to the people who still stick by my side even after I was mean for a while. plus points when they patiently point out when I’m in the wrong, but also extra plus points when they allow me to be a little hater because they understand I just need to vent for a bit and that I’ll be back to normal once I’ve calmed down

Interpreted this initially not as shelves, but as your cat having erected defensive fortifications

If I keep practicing I might even be a person soon

Trolling my biologist D&D player by sending the party on a quest to prevent the destruction of a mystical seal, and when they finally get there it quickly becomes clear that I'm actually describing a walrus.

being an adult is just dragging urself kicking and screaming to things that you will enjoy and that will be good for you

clenching my teeth and muttering under my breath "you'll be happy you did it you'll be happy you did it you'll be happy you did it" as I physically force myself out the door to go Do Things

being very firm with myself every time I think about bailing and saying "no. you committed to this. it will improve your quality of life. you will enjoy it. now put on your big boy pants and go."

hey if you’re stuck being in church this sunday here’s a reminder that it’s completely free to think about gay sex and no one can tell. the government doesn’t want you to know this but jesus thinks it’s totally cool

I like when a fantasy game puts soldiers or cops in front of you as roughly equivalent to any other monster like cool now that youre done decimating the local forests endangered big cat population your next goal is slaughtering the local police force so you can disassemble their guns for scrap to reinforce your sword

many of you just. genuinely don’t believe that people can grow and change.

this is about the death penalty and its also about call out posts about people who have already apologized for things they did a long time ago and it’s also about using ‘toxic’ or ‘abuser’ as if its an immutable class of person, and its also about any other circumstance with permanent consequences or wherein you assume someone is still the same person they were.

It's hilarious to me that Al Capone was an amazing tipper. I get why it took so long to catch him.

not to be all "these two words will change your life" or whatever, but I promise you, programming in "good catch!" as your response to people correcting you/pointing out errors or whatever removes so much friction from interactions, and comes with a delightful happy meal toy of "not hating yourself so much for making mistakes"

I use "I stand corrected" a lot. The mild silliness of the outdated language makes it work for me.
