Maybe our soul/essence/core is the choices we make whilst having these thoughts, feelings, and bodies we didn't ask for forced upon us. And if that's the case, maybe realizing we're not responsible for or defined by the three can help our choices be more genuine to who we really are.

A technique some people use to cope with mental health issues is to "re-raise their inner child" in their head. The idea is to give the inner child support and love and comfort so they can grow up secure and confident--basically, re-write your traumatic childhood.

I've tried it, and I think it's a good technique, but personally? In my case, it kinda ends up being the inner child raising me instead of the other way around.

I 100% recommend challenging yourself to stop using ableist words if you haven't already. Some people dismiss it as "a step too far" and say "words have to mean something", but it isn't just the words: it's the way of thinking that goes with them.

It's meeee~! 100% furry edition!

Hi, I'm Lexi! I'm a geeky nerd who's tired of the birdsite and its hate. Sorry for being a social media immigrant~

More about me:

🔹 I like cartoons and comic books. Also anime and manga, but I don't dispute that they're the same thing.
🔹 I like fantasy and science fiction. Star Wars is okay, but I prefer Star Trek.
🔹 Video games are neat, but I sorta grew out of them. Still like retro games!
🔹 Very pro-free speech, but even more pro-anti-harassment.

Right wing gamer nonsense

I need to put myself first more often. I'm terrible at taking my own advice. Sometimes I forget and start to feel like it's selfish of me, but being there for others is impossible if we don't take care of ourselves as well.

A lot of anti-Trumpers so strongly believe that Trump has made America a joke in the eyes of the world. It's true that he certainly hasn't helped, but uhh...it's a little frustrating to me that they don't realize that the world has feared/hated/laughed at/pitied America for longer than I've been alive.

Trump is the most obvious example of the problems, but he's also a result of them. They've always been there. That's why getting him out is only the start.

Silly fingrers

Wow I seriously misspelled demeaning in that CW.

I don't think I can keep watching this if it's going to be this sort of show. Like, I know something like Kino's Journey is just about visiting different countries and passing through, not necessarily solving any of their deep routed problems...but a) Kino isn't a talented witch, and b) Elaina literally didn't even tell them how fucked up this situation was. She came, she saw, she left.

Fuck.

...End of episode?? So just...fuck that girl then, I guess?? Not Elaina's problem that she has to do whatever the son with a crush on her wants or that the father clearly has a temper and loses his shit when she drops a jug of water. Witches follow the starfleet prime directive I guess?
