#denormalize that shit

[all-chickens-are-trans]

STOP bragging about how much you're overworking yourself. STOP making it a competition how little sleep you get each night. STOP trying to be worse off than anyone else in the room when it comes to health, work, relationships, school, or anything like that. you're not helping yourself, you're not helping anyone.

tough love is such a bullshit concept that's a massive delusional cope for trying to reason out why your parents or partner hit you, or a massive cope of why your piece of shit child is a sociopath and is unable to love its own family that it gave birth to or is the father of

[that-one-queer-poc]

WHY HAVE WE DENORMALIZED SYNOPSES!!!!!!! BRING THAT SHIT BACK IMMEDIATELY I DONT CARE IF THERE ARE SWORDS AND GAY PEOPLE AND DRAGONS!!!!!!

[perestroika-hilton]

We need to denormalize pushing guys heads down while giving head that shit is so scary and you should absolutely have to ask first I'm saying this as someone who thinks most kink spaces are obtuse about nonverbal consent to a fault like if you get really into it and slap me I can be like down boy no harm no foul but that's not the case with a dick in my mouth ykwim

This is going to sound wild but I think that ND actually got demonized more in my lifetime and some of it was about trying to identify future school shooters etc.

It's a mess.

A lot of stuff denormalized in my own lifetime. I think lots of masking discourse is talking about a contemporary phenomenon. I got away with stuff in school (possibly because a small white girl isn't seen as a threat, admittedly) that would get the next generation of kids into much worse shit. Or even the subject of FBI interest. I got expelled, but that was that.

We weren't trying to Department of Precrime the weird white kids yet, just the other kids.

[punksrespectpronouns]

y'all ever think about how many INVASIVE questions are normalized

like telling ppl your trans and getting "what's in your pants"

or telling ppl your ace and getting invasive questions about your sex life or them making you explain asexuality to them

or telling someone your disabled or chronically i'll and people demanding you explain your disability/medical history to them??

like who are u to ask me that? are you in my inner sanctum? cause if not fuck right off. denormalize this shit

[thehighestoctave]

I genuinely believe the true crime community should not exist. People will profit and take advantage of the victims' friends and family, it desensitizes people to murder and reduces it to just entertainment, and 90 percent of the thing is middle aged booktok women that are groomed into forming disturbing parasocial relationships with murderers and rapists. Its gotta go we should denormalize this shit

These are real people youre talking about being 'graped' and 'unalived' jfc

[spitxlfields]

I need people to understand, especially those without the disorder who are trying to do their own research, that 99% of online DID spaces are total complete dog shit. Actual garbage islands. Like almost same exact mouthfeel as Victorian Spiritualism parlour tricks. It's giving Blavatsky. It's giving giving Harry Houdini an anyersym. Maybe I'm just an old man, but I've been around for a hot second and oh the things I have seen. Just be really careful about what information you get and from who.

And for folks who have the disorder or suspect that they do -- be very, very careful about the spaces you enter -- I get it, it's a super lonely and isolating condition, but don't let that need for understanding and friendship cloud your judgment from making decisions on an objective basis. It's the opinion that no one wants, but if a group puts most or all of the emphasis on alters fucking run. You need to be sprinting in the other direction. And stop openly and boldly posting your triggers for all to see. Let's denormalize that. Let's practice some basic Internet safety.

Also society needs to denormalize companies and school and shit counting ur bathroom breaks. In school teachers would act like its the end of the world if a student wants to go to the bathroom but le gasp theyre TALKING TO THEIR FRIENDS FOR 60 SECONDS?????

Like the remnants of shit like serfdom and all that are SO Present in modern day society….

[swanmay-that-got-away]

Yknow when i think about all the situations that can be abusive and the ones I've been in, it's kind of hard not to conclude that society is so designed to generate abuse that not abusing someone is a neverending battle. There's about a million ways to hold power over someone and it's so normalized and default to hold that power over someone, it takes constant active effort to not do it. If you let some of it win, if you ever get that power over someone, it also wants to snowball naturally. Your brain, by social conditioning, wants to let it snowball. And if you let it snowball, it's even harder to stop it, to let go, to relinquish that power. Which is not to excuse it, more like, fuck man. This is so much to see and deal with. Sometimes it's hard to not get doomer about shit. You just gotta do shit to make things better, give you the hope with which to cope with all the other shit. You are at war with society on a spiritual level, and you must win by sheer effort. You can make it easier over time, you can generate norms and values and habits that denormalize and undefault abusive relations, but it's always going to be in arm's reach.

[theblabarmy]

denormalize is maybe the funniest word ever like yes make that shit weird and freaky hell yeah

[souloftheintrovert]

denormalize asking for face reveals. shit's kinda creepy

[brickwindowsandbrokenwalls]

Let's denormalize not caring being cool.

Let's denormalize "fuck your feelings".

Idk but whenever I see shit like that I just think "wow, yeah you're REAL cool." Cutting oneself off from human emotion in order to pretend that no one elses matter is some serious mental gymnastics.

[lettuce-seize-the-day]

if one more fucking person talks to me about weight loss and/or how being fat is unhealthy im gonna lose my fucking mind
