It’s not that you have issues…… it’s that you have a tendency to continue using instincts you picked up in childhood that are no longer useful to you on your journey towards achieving openness and intimacy and reliability in your personal relationships w others. It’s not that you’re defective or difficult or incapable it’s just that what you learned to do to save yourself from the experience of abandonment or rejection or ridicule or failure is not helpful here anymore and you need to start thinking creatively and collaborating on better ways to cope with that instrinsic fear that you are not correct, that you are faking, that you will be found out and left, whatever it is

the sad thing is, everyone thinks they’re so forgettable, or they don’t mean anything to anyone. but you don’t see your high school friend, smiling to themselves, when they think about your quirks or how dramatic you used to be whenever you got a crush. you don’t see the person who saw you around a lot but was always too shy to talk to you. you don’t remember the person you helped, and maybe you didn’t do much for them, but you didn’t know that they were having a shitty month and you sparked their first real smile in weeks. you don’t see the person that secretly loved you too, who never forgot the soft words that you said, or the way you smiled whenever you saw them, or how you reminded them of sunshine and flowers; and how the thought of you pops into their mind more than you will ever know and in the randomest of places. you will never know that a soft song or strawberries or a sunset will remind someone of you. they will go to the beach and think of you for some reason, until they remember that the last time they saw a color as beautiful and as profound as the ocean was when they looked in your eyes. no one knows their impact on people, or their worth. no one thinks they will be missed when they leave, but they don’t know that once you go into someone’s life, even for a fleeting moment, you stay forever, and you take up a soft place that no one else could ever replace.

I have to say this is my go to response for ppl crying reverse racism

for some reason i have this weird headcanon peter always calls tony his friend to annoy him?? like peter is late to school one day because he spent the night at the tower and he, tony, and rhodey stayed up watching star wars and didn’t go to bed until like three am, so tony has to go sign peter in and beg the school not to let may parker know her nephew missed his first two classes and when they get there the office ladies are like ?? shook ?? bc thats TONY STARK ?? so they ask peter ‘uh whos this’ and peter, who has this starbucks drink with so much whipped cream on it and is wearing either one of tony or rhodeys mit sweatshirts, he can’t remember but it’s comfortable and plays into his aesthetic, just nonchalantly goes ‘oh. this is my friend, tony. you know him?’ and tony looks up from where he’s signing the little sheet thing and glares at peter with a look that screams what did you just say?? i am your FUCKING FATHER FIGU- MENTOR I AM NOT YOUR FRIEND I WILL TAKE AWAY YOUR SUIT YOUNG MAN

That last statement about regret is so important, because so many people don’t understand what it is or what causes it. Anti-choicers exploit this by manipulating pregnant people and creating doubt, which only increases the likelihood of regret, no matter what decision the pregnant person makes. You know what is best for you, even if it takes some time to figure it out.

Willie Parker is a HERO among common people! 

Dr. Parker is one of the few things I like about Alabama and we are so fortunate to have him here.

Come on Dr Willie

And there it is

Wow

And meanwhile, assholes with no sense of irony or history refer to the naming of sexual predators as a witch hunt. 

FUCK.
