"muting # thistag was the best thing i've ever done on mastodon"

ok but why'd you have to then go make this post in the tag. the tag where people go to see and enjoy things relating to the content you don't want to see. are you just passive-aggressively bragging that you don't like other people enjoying things in a weird guilt trip or what. why was there any need to actually tag that post, you fucken boorish galooph

we choose the devil we know over the angel we don't because change is terrifying. but also don't be surprised when these things make you worse and worse and sicker and sicker.

and be mindful that sometimes these communities, memes, and jokes can go beyond gallows humor and become cages for people, dooming them to get worse and worse as they are trapped in those thoughts.

be mindful of how you hurt yourself, and how you hurt others, with this.

constantly running those thoughts through your mind, even in small ways, is going to make those mental ruts deeper and deeper. it is going to make it even more difficult if not impossible to truly get better, to cope effectively, and to actually survive.

i understand having the occasional bad day. but when everything you do and everything you are online is pointed to the one purpose of making your mental illness worse... well... you're in for a bad time.

i understand the pain of needing a cri de coeur, but you know what's a good way to make your mental illness worse?

constantly posting about how you wish you were dead, how you hate being alive, etc., and making that an integral part of your identity down to your username so that it is always going to be part of your content.

you cannot dig your way out of that hole, folks. it's not going to work.

that's a roommate! not someone you signed up to co-parent with! this 8 year old harassing you while you try to do laundry is not something you need to go read books about in order to parent him! AS YOU AIN'T HIS PARENT! tag his actual parent the fuck in on this!

WHY WAS THAT NOT THE FIRST RESPONSE. why did the response OR letter not mention this child's actual parents AT ALL.

tbh it stinks of "nearest woman assumes all childcare duties" bullshit

i realize that reading advice columns is mostly for the fun of pointing out when they're wrong, but

"dear slate.com parenting column, i, a single woman uninterested in having kids, recently moved in to share a house where one of my roommates has an 8 year old boy. he constantly follows me around critiquing my every move. is this a normal phase? what strategies should i use to teach him?"

me: listen it takes a village and all that but your strategy should be HEY ROOMIE, ABOUT YOUR SON...

i wonder how many of the area 51 memes are from or promoted by russian trolls, who are glad to have the idea of direct action against government facilities (to free innocents, even) made into a wholly ridiculous concept while trump keeps kids in cages

"well, thancred, any ideas?"

not really a shadowbringers spoiler but it's a screenshot from shadowbringers that i have done terrible things to, in order to make a stupid lewd joke. enjoy, #ffxiv tag

i'm writing on my list of things to draw "my WoL, bashing Thancred in the head with this book" #ffxiv

OOF OW OUCH THAT FEELINGS HURTING JUICE.

lyra's voice actress is so good. the writing is SO GOOD.

places programming meme into a bowl, shakes it around a bit, carefully puts it down on the porch before going inside and turning off the outside lights, satisfied that i have made a proper offering to the powerful programmer spirits to thank them for their protection

me: maybe i can scrape together spoons enough for a shower... please.... i'm so gross... let me just detangle my hair and -

my shoulder: LOL YOU MOVED YOUR ARM SLIGHTLY TIME TO JUST TAKE THOSE SPOONS BACK

i'm guessing that last post is going to be what gets me a call-out on here with signed complaints from every hispanic and latinx person available but also enchilada casserole good
