Basic Fucking Kindness

body, minorities "this is the first time i've seen color tattoos on dark skin that actually look vibrant and pigmented [...] dark skin accepts greens, yellows, and white beautifully"

relationships, boundaries, socialization "your partner is allowed to have meaningful relationships with other people your partner is allowed to get things from those relationships they dont get from you demanding you being the only source of pleasure and support in their life is possesive and toxic"

invisible problems "so grief is like this there is a box with a ball in it, and a pain button in the beggining, the ball is huge. you cant move the box without the ball hitting the pain button. it rattles around on its own and in there and hits the button over and over. you cant control it - it just keeps hurting. sometimes it seems unrelenting over time, the ball gets smaller. it hits the button less and less but when it does, it hurts just as much. its better because you can function day to day more easily. but the downside is that the ball randomly hits that button when you least expect it for most people, the ball never really goes away. it might hit less and less and you have more time to recover between hits, unlike when the ball was still giant"

mental illness, society, socialization, discrimination, neurodivergendy, schizophrenia "dont armchair diagnose mass shooters and other killers. the misconception that all violent people must be mentally ill (and the following conclusion that all mentally ill people must be dangerous) has horrible real life consequences for visibly mentally ill people [...] please consider the real life consequences of reinforcing the association between mental illness and violence"

society, discrimination, minorities, socialization, mental health "wow living as a person with a yellow head sure is cool kill yourself' you're yellow since i am human, my mental state worsens due to abuse 5 months later see, this study says that people with yellow heads are more likely to be depressed. that means its inherent to them being yellow. we should bleach their heads even if it meant death for them i've never seen a person with a yellow head so i will agree"

lgbt, binding, body, invisible problems, chronic illness, socialization "no offense but can ya'll like also normalize trans guys that DONT bind. like there's guys who dont want to, choose not to because of the risks, and guys who CANT because of medical reasons. not every trans dude is wearing a binder 24/7 and some dont ever"

body, chronic illness, invisible problems "abled people: can you do the thing?? disabled people: ...technically yes BUT"

invisible problems, socialization, animals "it costs you literally nothing to leave service dogs the fuck alone"

self compassion, socialization "its easy to always want to show up for eveyone else but its really important to show up for yourself as well"

boundaries, socialization, trauma "agreeing to things just to keep the peace is actually a trauma response. when you do this you're disrespecting your boundaries. no more making yourself uncomfortable for others comfortability. you have control now. you run your life. take up space and use your voice"
