I really admire your ability to just do shit. To make art, to try things. I don't want to impose, but how does one get this skill? How do you break away from the idea that you need permission?

I just don't think I've ever had it? I love creating and always have. I love watching my hands use objects to bring thoughts into reality. I started drawing before I could walk. If there is such a thing as a purpose, or a destiny, or a calling, I think mine is that.

I suppose my best advice is to forget the idea of permission at all

wild-giggle

We often get taught from the very beginning that children are supposed to obey and do as they're told. You spend the majority of the most impactful learning period of your life with nearly every moment controlled; even when creativity is vocally encouraged, every situation from schooling to lack of children's rights engineers it so that everything else teaches you otherwise. Don't think outside the box, follow the instructions. Sit here, go there. Do as I say, because I said so.

Questioning authority is an automatic no.

Some people learn to rebel, some people learn to do as they're told, some people land somewhere in the middle. Everyone responds to it differently, and of course despite the systems at play, everyone grows up in slightly different environments that enforce different things. But all of us who become adults eventually have to learn how to be independent in a world where we've been raised to not think for ourselves.

The workforce, of course often tries to teach otherwise, but barring a job, your life is yours to live. Not anyone else's. As teaboot said: forget the idea of permission at all. The greatest gift of adulthood is, most often, the freedom to do as you please. Obviously everyone has different capabilities with their time and money and physical/emotional state, but the best gift you can give yourself as you grow older is to teach yourself to not need permission.

It might take time and it might take practice. Start with the little stuff if you need to. But learn to listen to your own body and your own mind, and your own needs, over what society tells you is right or what you think is expected of you, and there you will find the greatest joys.

this is going to sound like such a little sibling ass take but i genuinely believe that being a little bit annoying is actually a greater sign of maturity and self awareness than being universally likeable and on good terms with everyone

valtsv

if some people find me annoying and can't stand me because of how i think and act then that means i'm a fully realized human being with my own personality and opinions and free will and not just a reflective surface for other people's desires, which is in fact a good thing despite what people who want you to just be a reflection of their own opinions and desires will tell you, and why being considered "cringe" or whatever doesn't bother me at all

valtsv

also it's really funny when you're confident enough in yourself to know that people not liking you isn't always a sign that you're the problem. like there's something undeniably hilarious about being aware your mere existence has the power to piss someone off and ruin their day and i recommend embracing it.

Oh fucking thissss

listen to me. this is my final message to you. when you are at your lowest a fictional guy will come to you and when that happens you must start putting them in situations. this is the meaning of life.

here's a secret: whatever you're doing, you have to root for your peers with all your heart because it forces you to root for yourself too. I've seen people in various spheres of my life (workplaces, education, art, activism) fall into the trap of envy and resentment when they see others succeed while they struggle, and it always always goes hand in hand with them pulling back and giving up and stagnating.

when you let yourself get sour grapes about shit, you tacitly give up on yourself. when you sit around hoping other people will flop and fail so you can catch up to them, you stop trying. it's a fantasy of mediocrity, the vain wish that other people would walk so you could take the gold medal at a jog. wouldn't you rather come last place at 27mph?

#hell fucking yeah #ROOT FOR YOUR PEERS

In my heart, I've finally begun to understand that reading The Goblin Emperor just puts you in a constant state of "Should I reread this book??" even if you read it two weeks ago

my fav relationship ship dynamic is where it doesn't matter if you call it platonic or romantic or queerplatonic because they always act the same in every type of relationship. and the way they act? fucking weird.
