oh wait this is literally just... the majority is Right and True and anyone who deviates from it is Wrong and Unwell. okay. okay. i've experienced this and observed this many times before but this one in particular blindsided me a little because I often forget how much people hate insects because the subject does not come up very often in my physical life

#i do not bring up the fact that i have isopods as pets bc it gets upsetting to hear ppl rant abt how they squish all bugs they see #okay. well. that is my beloved pet actually. who has stopped me from killing myself countless times. so uhm. thanks for that i guess.#i just live in a basement where i come across centipedes and beetles and spiders and earwigs #and i deal with them. catch and release as often as i can #and my mother scoffs at me but she is one person. she is not representative of The Majority of Society #as i often have to remind myself!#my sister is good about it and my dad is good about it so it balances out my mother irt to this specifically #so i forget that like... moooost people are the same as my mother. would laugh at me for doing catch-and-release w insects #would be disturbed or amused by me verbally apologizing to a bug when i have to kill it #anyways this is making it make sense in my head so at least thats smth i guess. it is just another instance of this whole thing #i think i didnt even consider this bc it doesnt feel that serious in my brain. its not like a diagnosis or Obvious Symptom or smth.#but then it makes the counselor laugh at me and tell me that i have to go against my values essentially so . it suddenly Becomes serious #pippen needs 2nd breakfast
