I don’t hate the concept of ebooks per se but what bothers me is how our society is shifting from actually owning entertainment in tangible forms like books and CDs and DVDs and game discs, to having to download everything so basically we’ll get to the point where everything is intangible and all of our property can be taken away by a website crash.

Fear is not the same as power.
Okay. You made someone scared of you. Cool. Now what?
Do you think that makes you powerful? Do you think it put you above them in some way?
Do you think that you can harm them with fear alone?
Fear can't harm you.
And once you know that, it's a lot easier not to be afraid.

hey shout out to plurals with "frustrating" or "socially bad" traits.
plurals who seem indecisive, "hot and cold", disloyal, dishonest, etc. to others due to subtle switches, passive influence, being median, amnesia barriers, etc. between headmates with very different opinions, wants, and moods
plurals who have headmates with "scary" attributes/symptoms, like hallucinations, delusions, anger issues, hypersexuality, low/no empathy, selfishness, need for attention, etc. especially those afraid they're perpetuating the "evil alter" stereotype
plurals who never know who's fronting. especially those with memory barriers, those who struggle with feeling any sense(s) of personhood, and/or those who struggle to keep close bonds with people due to this
plurals who struggle with meltdowns, tantrums, outbursts, pathological demand avoidance, poor sense of social norms, and other tendencies/issues that make being social or just existing in public difficult
plurals with fluctuating sexualities and/or triggers that make it difficult to remain with a partner/partners (or to date in the first place)
plurals who infight in-system and have trouble making decisions without intense internal backlash
plurals who have trouble keeping self care (and may go out of the house dirty/disheveled) due to other mental illness or due to frequent fronters being unmotivated, forgetful, or having sensory issues or triggers that interfere with self care tasks
plurals whose "self defense" relies on people pleasing, avoiding stressors, getting overly defensive, or getting angrier than "reasonable"
i write a lot of this cause i need to hear it, and i figure others do too. you are loved, you are appreciated, you deserve to be a part of society, you deserve to be happy, you deserve to be understood and given patience... you deserve to be able to create, love, heal, be respected, be treated like your own age, to lead, to have a voice, to feel safe.
sometimes disability accommodations arent what you think. sometimes its letting the weird people, well, be weird. letting them carry stuffed animals around, wear things you dont normally see, be loud/quiet, speak in odd manners, spell things wrong, all of it without backlash or harrassment.
and thats okay. its not just the big, important things that a lot of us NEED to function, like interpreters or ramps. sometimes the small things can make a difference too, no matter how “strange” or “distracting” they are.
if its not harming you or someone else its not a problem. its making someones life easier or less miserable.
