#another rant

i dislike tiktok . it's weird and i think any platform with short form content is bound to piss people off

however, i personally would like to say a few things !!!!! no that u have to hear me out lol

ALSO PSA THIS IS MOSTLY ABOUT YOUNGER THERIANS (like under 16)

anyway plsss keep in mind :

therians on tiktok are 80% children (from like 8-14) (have you ever seen a child talk about something important to them? they scramble their words and make it very self centric!! they do not quite understand social media, information gathering, communities and safe spaces like us older people do) (my foster sister is 11 year old is a therian and she's still figuring out how to work with it) (also their whole lives have been spent living as human, unlike some of us older creatures who have had therianthropy under our belt for years)

i've also deleted tiktok! but instead, i literally watch those silly therian tiktok compilation videos on youtube. they're usually hand picked and recent! avoid the drama and watch fun little videos online !!!

also please remember some therians can be more connected to their humanity than you could be ! sure, they shouldn't claim every therian "is human", but if they're a child, children seem to apply "if this is my experience, then it's everyone's experience duhhh". if they're older with a bunch of experience in the community then go ahead n sick'em i condone that LOL

OKAY RANT OVER

sorry no one is gonna read this lol

On your journey back to yourself, whether through manifesting or shifting, you will come across a lot of voices. Whether your "own" or outside of you, you will have to face opinions and points of views that differ from what you know.

You will hear a lot of things. Things that will make you feel uncomfortable, things that will feel like a stab to the heart. Words that seem as if they were formed especially to break you. You will notice a lot of "experts" sharing their words with the conviction of a pope standing on his high pedestal, as if they have access to knowledge that is simply out of your reach. They will preach to you from their high horses, accusing you of all manners of awful things because you chose to do things differently. Those people claim to have gone through what you have yet to experience, so naturally they are the authority on everything spiritual. You will internalise those words, adopting them as your own views when you still don't know any better. You will hear their voices change into yours, going through your mind in an endless loop, getting harsher and more cruel as time goes by.

Awareness doesn't judge.

That voice in your head telling you what you're doing is wrong is not your awareness. That cacophony screaming at you that manifesting an SP is wrong or that shifting to a reality in which you are younger/older or of a different race/ethnicity is not your awareness. That chorus of voices telling you it's not real or you'll never get there or that you're wasting your time is not your awareness.

Your awareness doesn't have a voice. It doesn't speak, it doesn't think, it doesn't judge.

It simply observes.

It is your awareness that shifts realities, not your inner thoughts and feelings. It is your consciousness that travels the multiverse, not your vessel or your age. It is limitless, ageless, formless, tethered to nothing and no one.

Your current reality self, this body you inhibt at the moment, those thoughts and lessons and mannerisms you have adopted, they are simply a stop along the way. They are not your beginning, they are not your true form. They are not the standard, the motherboard, the original. They are simply a version of you, in an endless queue of other versions, something you chose to be aware of in this Now moment.

Set yourself free. Remove the shackles you have put on yourself and stop beating yourself up. You are not a horrible person for choosing to be happy. You are not a terrible person for seeking out different experiences in different lives in different bodies with different people. You are not the antichrist for choosing a different reality, a better life, a new chance to experience what you didn't have the chance to live here.

You are human, for now. Enjoy it. It won't last forever. Not the way it is now, not this version.

Be you, whatever that looks like, whatever it feels like.

for ada, i feel like a lot of people demonise her for simply doing her job. people focus on re2 specifically, because she lied about being fbi and threatened to shoot leon for the sample. it’s obvious she didn’t want to go to such extremes, but she had to. she wasn’t going to put her job on the line for a man she met that night and would most likely face severe reproductions if she didnt. we don’t know much about adas job, but it’s best to assume it’s shady and dangerous. it wasn’t like she left leon to fend for himself, she survived the fall and still made sure he got the rocket launcher to defeat the tyrant when she could’ve just left for her own safety. I don’t think most people have seen this resident evil nemesis ada epilogue (link sends you straight to pinterest!) either. it paints ada in a vulnerable light we’ve never seen her in, almost like ada is a role she has to play to get the hard objectives of her job done. throughout of the rest of the games/cgi films, ada has been on her own mission and had her own objectives but still helps leon in his and finds the time to do so. if she didn’t care, she wouldn’t of helped him. she doesn’t fit the ‘kind heroine’ stereotype, so people are quick to judge her.

for claire, i don’t think people see her as a character outside of leon. they simply just see her as someone for him romantically, instead as her own person. she’s had her own missions and has many achievements, yet she isn’t recognised for any of them. she is more than just a potential love interest. shes apart of a human rights agency, providing aid to people who are caught between bioterrorism attacks, she likes motorcycles and is literally an expert of lock picking (like jill but not quite the master hehe)!! she’s loves her brother, and also protected sherry with her life in re2!! also the redfield bloodline jokes are so so so gross…
