The more I get into the mental health field and the more my own mental health has worsened the more it astounds me how many people- who 100% believe themselves to be mental health advocates- would rather have a society in which people who are more likely to harm others as a result of untreated mental illness are tortured and/or killed instead of, yknow, treated. Some of yall are so obsessed with dispelling the stigma that mentally ill people are inherently more dangerous, you wrap back around to straight up ignoring that severe untreated mental illnesses can and sometimes do explain awful and often criminal behaviors. You don’t have to have sympathy or compassion for ANYONE who is mentally ill if they’ve done terrible things but if you’re more interested in supporting systems that punish abusers and perpetrators than systems which support the victims— who in our current society are given very minimal resources in comparison to the resources put into our punital systems— maybe you should re-evaluate what your priorities actually are. When all the evidence shows that rehabilitation, reform, and mental health treatment are most notably and consistently effective at lowering crime and re-offence rates, it genuinely baffles me how anyone could actually be against these systems while continuing to believe they’re truly on the side of bettering society and supporting mental health. I’ve seen so many people say ‘yall support mental health symptoms until they’re not palatable’ and ‘abusers deserve to suffer and die’ in the same breath, like where is the self awareness?? I totally understand such extreme emotional responses on a small, personal scale to those who have wronged you but if you’re allowing your own unhealed wounds to inform your genuine beliefs about society and capital punishment as a whole you seriously should work on that.

You'd think, given we now live in our current corpo capitalist dominant hellscape that once Adsense finally clocked I was looking for underwear it'd help me find what I'm looking for, but instead I'm being hit with an endless stream of sweaty dick bulge and their girlfriends who bought underwear for said sweaty dick bulge I am gonna go fucking feral.
Like dude all I am fucking asking for is some cotton boyshorts/bikini briefs that aren't boring as fuck 😭

jamie and nathan are besties mainly because they know how much it fucking sucks to be openly queer and nonbinary, so they're both each other's rock. so much so, that when nathan established helios, they knew that jamie was dropped by their sponsors and took them under their wing because we gotta stick together baby. they look like they don't belong as friends because their styles kind of clash - where nathan is all flash and color and glitz and glamour, jamie is not very currently fashion forward and dark and heavy and prioritizes comfort. nathan is the extrovert that has adopted the introvert that is jamie, and they know all too well what jamie's tells are when they're overstimulated, uncomfortable, in pain, and the days that jamie has to be on bed rest or doesn't want to go out, they take plenty of pictures for them and will come by to visit them with flowers :^)
and karina will do the same!! she's got her problems with jamie, for sure, mostly because their idea of perfection clashes with karina's and she can be a bit stubborn about it, and where jamie prefers to keep out of the limelight and doesn't perform anymore, karina is the opposite and wants to quit being a hero to become a performer full time. not to mention the age gap between the two means karina thinks that jamie probably sees her as being younger than she actually is (which they do), and they try not to make a fuss about her uniform but nothing gets done about it anyways. they just don't want her to be taken advantage of like they were. karina does worry about jamie pushing themself too hard, and knows when it's time to take a break for them because heaven knows that they don't want to admit that they're past their limit sometimes

hmmm I should play Pokémon Violet soon. i want to assign Pokémon teams to mdzs characters but idk the sv pokedex like at All. I’m sure I could make solid teams just picking from all the other regions but what if there’s a rlly fitting paldean Pokémon yknow .. I could just go thro all the dex entries but I’d rather meet them in game so I Don’t permanently end up thinking ab any of them as like ‘the wwx Pokémon’ or anything.
im so sure someone else has made them Pokémon teams Somewhere but there’s 1,000 Pokémon now (hey don’t cry. 1,000 different pokemon, okay?) so im sure I can bring some of my own flavors to the table anyway
