Meeting my future nieces and nephew knowing that eventually I'll lose them to toxic masculinity and closed minded ideals bc of who my brother, his future wife, and family in general is as people bc i live too far away to try and be a consistent source of reason and kindness is especially infuriating.
#'theyre so badly behaved!!' well maybe if everyone around them wasnt constantly yelling and cussing and showed them basic decency#i saw 3 lonely kids whos mother isnt interested in being a parent to them#and whos future stepfather dove into fatherhood headfirst yet isnt emotionally mature or grounded enough to parent#no matter how hard hes trying#i see 3 mixed children thrust into a family of white racists who constantly hear the N word and callous disregard for anyone different#whos white mother and father have no idea how to take care of their hair or mental health as black kids#the former of which doesnt even care to try to learn if the last 10 years have been any indication#a little boy whos told hes not supposed to cry and who loves to learn but no one sits with him to foster that inquisitive mind#a 10 year old girl whos constantly told how big she is and told she eats too much and now hides and lies about her snacking#when shes literally just tall and starting to go through puberty which is NOT the right time to start making her feel bad about her looks#'we never tell her shes fat' okay but saying shes 'huge' within earshot of her is disgusting and devastating to hear as a chubby young girl#then you have a literal 7 year old whom my mom describes as 'sneaky' and a 'bitch' despite her being a literal child#the little boy acts out and my mom tells him she refuses to see him grow up into a 'hoodlum'#i will never move back to texas but i wont lie when i say ive never wished i was closer to home than i did when i met those kids#and realized how badly theyre going to need at least one adult in their life who is consistently kind to them and is the voice of reason#showing them that its okay to love themselves no matter who they turn out to be#that its okay to cry if you want to and that it isnt bad or wrong to be different#teach them all the things i wish i would have learned while growing up with the same family#all i can hope for is to make sure they know that im available to talk to and that i can and will be their safe space to talk about whatever#i could talk about this forever but im tired ugh#personal

sometimes my cat will suddenly go very fast. But don't let this fool you. It does not reflect an urgent change in circumstances

Dear, sweet, Littlefoot, do you remember the way to the Great Valley? I guess so. But why do I have to know if you’re going to be with me? I’ll be with you. Even if you can’t see me. What do you mean I can’t see you? I can always see you.
The Land Before Time(1988) dir. Don Bluth

being self aware suuuucks like yeah this thought pattern/behavior is stupid and pointless and a symptom. i know this. [does it anyways
#therapy is so difficult for me for this reason#i KNOW why i do or feel most of the things i do or feel and KNOW its irrational and illogical but can i stop it? no#so its just an hour of me going 'i had this reaction and i know WHY and what led to it but idk how to stop!!!'#and my therapist goint 'yeah....thats hard'#like idk if its a incompatible therapist relationship or if im just too self aware and normal talk therapy isnt what i need
