Today was a great day for my chronically online ass, Smosh dropped their Shourtney lore SmoshCast episode and Spilling the Milk reacted to Prince of Egypt on stream let’s fucking go
I think some people don't realize some of us HAVE to be chronically online unfortunately, especially if we are bedridden or housebound due to illness. Obviously this isn't great for many reasons, and I've definitely fallen into the habit of rotting my brain with 7 second reels or ending up in really petty online arguments because i have nothing else to do. Just try to take care of yourselves, maybe you have to be chronically online, but maybe you can look out a window for a few minutes, or actively not read comments you know will upset you, or maybe make an effort to take a break from watching reels or tiktoks every few hours. Its incredibly difficult to have an occupied life when you're stuck in bed or at home. Personally I've found eating or being on my phone while also outside helps, writing/journaling in the notes on your phone, rewatching a loved tv show instead of interacting on online discourse or watching mind numbing dopamine hit reels over and over. Anyways, i know its difficult and you aren't bad for being chronically online especially when you really don't have much of a choice, just try to be gentle with how you treat yourself and consume media these days. I frequently take breaks from Instagram and tiktok, i think i haven't used them in about 2 weeks right now. Its also helpful to find safe spaces online. I consider tumblr a much more tame and healthier media for myself to consume because there isn't much fighting and just more wholesome random info everywhere. It also helps to text/call friends, reconnect with them online, ect. I hope my fellow chronically online people have a nice internet day.
i think a lot of people miss the part where zutara is not enemies to lovers
its an enemies to friends to lovers, which is just such a better trope, and it highlights their friendship while not denying the fact that they definitely had some romantic feelings for eachother
Sometimes you see an awful community online and fear it's widespread, but it's not widespread, it's just that everyone in that community never logs off
I get that sometimes activism requires you to inconvenience yourself and make sacrifices but we really need to stop telling mentally ill and financially unstable 15-25 year olds that they're a bad ally if they haven't cut off their bigoted family members or don't have the energy to start a fight about LGBTQ+ rights with 14 conservative boomers at the Christmas dinner
I was looking for Society of the Snow on here and. Can people be normal and less chronically online please because there is no fucking way I just saw someone ask what the ship name for Nando Parrado and Roberto Canessa is. These are real people. Sdln/Sots specifically is NOT a movie to make a fandom out of. It's a movie you watch to understand what happened to these people and maybe even fall for the actors. But the REAL ACTUAL PEOPLE? WHO WENT THROUGH ALL OF THAT? Is fucking wild. Get a grip. Read a book.
