I Feel That Whatever Part Of The Diagram I Find Myself In, My Mind Is Capable Of Spinning A Depressing

"It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was Us, then what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought on myself as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things."

Terry Pratchett in "Jingo"

Truly hate the way "did this person do something that actually harmed someone" and "do they deserve to be unpersoned for it" are considered the same question

“I believe that if, at the end of it all, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do.

To make others less happy is a crime.

To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts.

We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances.

We must try.”

​— Roger Ebert, “Go gentle into that good night.”

cruelty is so easy. youre not special for choosing it

I am appreciative that I’m learning to cry again. Over silly things or sad things. I’ve struggled for a long time to properly access, feel, and process my emotions. I do not get angry when I should, and it isn’t unusual for me to go months without crying, despite having valid reasons to do so. Without that internal monitor It makes caring for myself difficult sometimes. This may hurt, but it feels like progress.

been thinking about fantasy/scifi rule systems and free will

Golden potato I need your shining help, taking anything big or small

Sevika, Vi and Ekko, who never saw eye to eye, bonding after Jinx's death over the fact that Sevika was there for her when neither of them were.

Sevika, telling them about the softer side of the girl with the manic eyes.

The three of them getting together, to try and piece together a full picture of Powder and Jinx. Vi, who knew who she started as. Sevika, who knew who she became. And Ekko, who knew who she could have been.

I am Philosopher Under The Sea. Lord of the crepe. Bringer of Us retroactively. Fear me, for I'm just exceptionally good for you.

New tag game! I'll start:

I am Pluto. Lord of the lord. Bringer of the lord. Fear me for I am not in the same place.
