glittergothdad:

i wish more people understood that my facial movements do not always refect what i’m feeling or thinking. sometimes i make the wrong face for an emotion, sometimes i make no face, sometimes my face moves a lot and it doesnt always reflect whats happening in my brain.

my facial expressions are not a reliable indicator of my thoughts or feelings.

Be vigilant, people. 2020 is closer than you think, and I’ve already been seeing suspicious “joke” posts, anti-Democrat “memes,” and interview quotes and screenshots purposely taken out of context. We cannot have a repeat of 2016. We just cannot.

If you see someone on here or on Twitter saying things like “both sides are the same” or “Democrats and Republicans both have issues regarding ______,” assume it’s from a planted Russian troll or a blatant MAGA member.

Once I said something to the effect of “he’s more impressed with himself when he calls you beautiful than he is with you” as some sort of statement towards the self-serving nature of compliments from men. This is especially true when you are not conventionally beautiful, in whatever way that means to you. The exchange then becomes “I can see beauty in you” carrying the implication that other men cannot, and you are supposed to thank him for completing such a strenuous task.

vampireapologist:

imagine trying out a super risky outfit ur not sure is gonna land well and on your way to the party you fall into a bog and become a bog body and in like 3,000 years they pull you out in like a pink mesh bathing suit with an applique that says “barbie girl” on the front tucked in as a body suit to a pair of track shorts that say “your card was declined” on the ass and a pair of elevated 90s gel sandals with a hitclips clipped to the strap with one cartridge (60 seconds of an nsync song) and they reconstruct you in a museum and tell the public that’s how people dressed

do you ever see a picture of someone with a body like yours and you’re momentarily comforted like they look pretty good…i probably look good too

which is why fat representation is so so important

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

lightheartedsuggestion:

You don’t need them to be proud of you. Let go of that. You can do this on your own. Their approval is only holding you back.

recognizing a coping method as damaging is important but it’s also important to forgive yourself and not think poorly of yourself for using that method in the first place. you were in situations that no one should ever be in and there was no one to tell you how to handle it so you figured it out as best you could. it’s easy to look back on things you’ve done and become frustrated with yourself but you survived and there weren’t a lot of options for that survival.
