i think the beautiful thing about pluribus to me is that in a way the dystopian world we see should be better. there is no war because they are of one mind, no poverty because resources are equally distributed and labour shared, and though they face the usual ails of the human body they have immediate access to the forefront of medical knowledge. they are probably taking better care of the planet with whatever their diet is, turning off power grids, and prioritising the heating of one shared space instead of many. though we don't directly see it, species that are under daily threat from poachers or hunters are not being persecuted anymore. this should be the perfect world we all dream of. and yet, it is not, it is deeply deeply terrifying because creativity, imagination, and individuality are entirely lost. cultures and traditions entirely cease to exist, community and family means nothing because they are all one. and it is our individuality which makes us human. this show is a literal representation of why you should always be, well, you, because it's exactly that which makes the world worth living in.

thinking about buying unnecessary stuff to boost my spirits

fuck i forgot to partake in handmade crafts and whimsy

i feel much more like a sex pervert thinking about how i want to be kissed by someone i am in reciprocated love with than about any actual sex pervert stuff. my disgusting true love fetish </3

i have never met an unpsychotic person who knows what it actually means to “not encourage the delusion” …not a single one

I don’t mean to trivialize psychosis by making a weird comparison, but this guide also serves as a handy checklist for helping someone through a bad drug trip. In both cases your number one priority is to get the person through whatever they’re dealing with unharmed.

i don’t think it’s trivializing at all, nor a weird comparison—as a psychotic person who has had psychotic episodes inadvertently triggered by drug use and/or worsened while trying to self-medicate with drugs, i think this is an important addition.

This is also very similar to what you should do when people with Alzheimer’s have paranoia episodes

Just because some of y’all won’t listen to this excellent advice without it, I am adding my therapist cosign.

sex is so boring and passe but things that are metaphorically sex but weirder will never go out of style

too many girls who like snoopy and poetry and healing. personally I never heal and all I think about is the flaming skull

Being pretentious and arrogant is literally all we have #myvanity

men are out here microdosing on being gay by being actors on television shows

Do you think protein wants to be in all these things ?
