we are so fucking back baby

a thought for handling "can't tell if using personal examples to relate to somebody's situation is helping or making me look self-centered" is to bring the personal examples back to the situation of the person you're talking to. name why their thing reminded you of your thing ("it made me feel alone/scared/angry/abandoned/whatever") and then ask if you're on the mark with the parallel or not. possibly straight up tell them that you're not trying to make the conversation about yourself; you are trying to see if you are reading what they're going through right. connect the dots for them of what you were trying to accomplish by sharing your personal anecdote so they can tell you if it's helpful or not

i think one of the worst things the left wing internet ever did was push the idea that oppression is basically a virtue, and being oppressed is a sign of your morality. it has made it like…impossible for some of you to hold the idea that most people are privileged in some ways and oppressed in others. AND a lot of you seem to have it in your mind that terrible people cannot be oppressed, and that oppressed people cannot do terrible things, which is a dangerous rhetoric to hold imo.

what about a shapeshifter who’s bad at it. shapeshifter who can never quite get the nose right. shapeshifter who always makes flipped faces because they’re doing adjustments in the mirror. shapeshifter with same face syndrome. shapeshifter who always dips further into the uncanny valley than they want. shapeshifter who can mimic a single celebrity completely perfectly but struggles to recreate anyone else.

"christian characters in movies are poorly written because the writers are atheist" "atheist characters in movies are poorly written because the writers are christian" stop fighting. all human experience is poorly written in movies because the writers are californian

i've always believed the fixation on 'mean girls' specifically is because it's a violation of gender roles first and foremost--a 'mean boy' in high school is a regular high schooler. the internet isn't ready for this take yet though so be careful

i am Thinkimg . about the Character. and listening to a Song. i a m sure this will not have repercussions

so today a public health official guy came into my class to give a lecture on disaster awareness and he was talking about house fires and mentioned that the reason people most likely die during a house fire is because they refuse to leave their pet inside or they go back to get their pet. and right when he said this my friend immediately turned his head and looked at me and in that moment I had the most complete and genuine acceptance take over my body. I would 100% in front of my family and Jesus himself walk straight back into some raging inferno that was once my house to go get my fat cat. I nodded back

the best part of this post is reading all the tags from animal people who would also go back to save their pets. like no hesitation. walk backwards from heaven straight back into hell. someone even said they would go back for their fish. amazing

my weapon of choice during school yard fights 

DnD campaign but the only weapons are 90′s toys @riskpig

I’ll allow it.

Are those a weapon or piece of armor?

Perfection.
