Can Confirm This Actually Works

i think what bothers me about a lot of "girl power" narratives is that they function on the implicit idea on the idea that women can become worthy of respect. and i happen to think that really caring about women means believing they already are worthy of respect. that historical seamstresses and soccer moms and forgotten sisters and sweet polite little girls and someone's weird grandma matter just as much as the warriors and politicians, even if they, personally, never accomplish anything "cool."

If you have DID/OSDD then simply plural is a Pokédex of your brain.

to have failed is a sign you tried…. the mistakes, the relationships that didn’t make it, the job you didn’t get, the plans that fell through…. you tried, you lived, you loved.

I want a cat so bad! I keep seeing cute cat pictures and most of the time I'm just like "awe that's precious" and move on, but then there's the posts about having just adopted a cat and already it's loving on them and I waaaaant! I want a floofy and weird little buddy! Soon as I have a house amd everything settled I'm gonna look at how feasible it would be for me to have a cat too

One of the most dangerous things in the world is not being able to say no to people because you don't want to upset them or dissapoint them. This will completely ruin your life in every way possible, at work, in your private life, your sex life and your friendships. It's a way of removing your own consent in your own decisions and go against your wishes, it is always a crime against yourself. Let yourself have a say. Upsetting people is better than traumatizing yourself.
