upset that hotties won’t answer your dms? ask your doctor if fucking paying them is right for you ✨

Core signs you’re chronically dysregulated: 1. You can’t engage in conflict without lashing out or completely shutting down 2. You’re consistently feeling tired but wired (want to sleep but can’t) 3. You’re impatient and feel agitated at your baseline

when someone respectfully informs us that something we’ve said or done was hurtful, this shows that: a) they trust us enough with their feelings to talk about it b) they’re identifying behaviour that is a potential threat to the connection and value it enough to want to repair

@flaargen Bruh

the animal sanctuary account i follow just made a post about how one of their elephants had a “i didn’t know i was pregnant” type delivery that was so shocking that when the baby just dropped out onto the ground the other elephants ran away screaming

‘Easy money’ sir do you know how much cake and doritos and pasta have gone uneaten for this body

@somelexbian That's a fucking mood bro

I promise you you are not ready for what this fucking thing does 30 seconds in

Sometimes, having to start a task can be the hardest and most frustrating thing in the world to me. I often force myself to sit down and start working but I only get irritated until I cry. This is so hard to explain. Part 1 of 4 explaining why this happens + coping tools

@TheHorrorOf97 I am so sorry. I remember coming home to see everything I own thrown into plastic garbage bags. No one deserves to go through this.

I’m a foster system survivor and I’m currently homeless with my stuff in boxes going to be shoved into my in laws living room. It’s all my ptsd triggers. No home. Being perceived. Taking up space. Parents. Boxes and bags. Lack of future. Lack of control. Lack of mental health

Many people have a consistent fawn trauma response. Fawning is: people pleasing, appeasing, or just going along with people to avoid conflict. HERE’S WHY WE DO IT AND HOW TO HEAL FROM IT: 🧵

@TheHorrorOf97 @pot8um I am a captioner, we are told not to translate if it is a different language. I am not bilingual nor am I paid enough to be.

@pot8um Yesssss this is an issue I’ve read us users bring up. Not showing swears and sometimes they even refuse to translate non English speakers in scenes. Like it will just say “speaking Chinese” or something 😐😐😐

I have a small beef Why do some subtitles / captions censor what the speaker says? If they say fuck and we hear the word fuck, the captions shouldn’t read (___) or **** or f**k. It’s fuck. I feel like folks who rely on CC aren’t getting the same content as those who don’t.

@slugisland @jershaw01 @pot8um So much this. I'm a captioner cuz that's the only work I can find as a disabled person. In order to do a job CORRECTLY I get paid less than five dollars an hour.

@pot8um I do captioning myself and if the speaker says something -- even a cuss word -- we are to write it. I am not bilingual though, nor are we paid enough to be so if it is a different language that is all I write.

one time i broke up with this guy via voicemail and his band recorded a guitar riff over it and used it as a song intro

last night my gf's dad asked me who i was voting for in the midterms and i told him i will be voting for the party who is not trying to overthrow the government and does not have the full support of the Nazi's & the entire room got quiet and looked at me so i said it again
