simultaneously wanting to cry out "HOW COULD YOU JUST LEAVE ME HERE" and "NEVER LEAVE ME AGAIN"

aka what happens if you combine prime!sonic (sweetest boy) and fof!tails (most traumatized boy)

bonus: HE DOESN'T KNOW

at the end of exile it's implied that sophie is going to try to teach bronte how to inflict positive emotions, so did that ever happen or . . . ?

(yes i am aware that sophie inflicts positively on bronte in everblaze but that's not actually her teaching him how to do it and him gaining the ability to do it himself because of her training or something. that's just her demonstrating to him that she can do it. which is different. in my opinion. demonstration does not equal teaching.)

It is not your responsibility:

To take on someone elses healing

To process someone's trauma for them

To monitor and manage someone else's emotions

To teach people how to love

To try and get people to appreciate you

To "keep the peace"

To spend all your energy trying to keep someone happy

To try and prevent someone from cheating

To teach people how to apologize & take accountability

To try and get others to change toxic behaviors

To accept responsibility for pain you didn't cause

To try and get them to heal pain they have caused to others

To do all the emotional labor in your relationships and friendships

To accept less than you deserve

To blame yourself when people treat you poorly

To teach them emotional intelligence

To stay quiet when you are hurting

To lie and hide things for them

To protect people who wouldn't do the same for you

To help someone else grow

To teach people how to find healthy coping mechanisms that work for them

To allow yourself to be taken for granted for the sake of "love"

To believe them when they have been caught lying before

To teach people self love

To make excuses, explanations or justifications for someone else

To allow yourself to be manipulated because you want to believe them

To control other people

To awaken them

To change their beliefs about themselves and the world around them

To convince them why they should want to better themselves

To pull them out of the hole they've dug for themselves

To try to repair relationships you didn't break

To stay where you feel you no longer belong

To make yourself small to keep other's comfortable

It IS our responsibility to heal OURSELVES, and in doing so, inspiring other's to do the same.

No matter how many people have told you that you are a "healer," it is NOT your responsibility to heal those who don't want to be healed, aren't ready for it, or arent appreciative of you.

Some may never take this path, and that is their choice to make.

Protect your energy.

As per gbpatch posts

if I see any of you whitewashing my babies (Theo and Oscar) I am gonna gently remind you that there are better ways to color poc-- aside from color picking that actual sprites/cg.. Or eyeballing it yourselves. I swear it is not that hard to use darker shades for characters! It can be so fun too!! Don't be afraid to even go darker!! Just please do not make them look pale af

And if that doesn't work and you don't listen. I'm blocking your ass. That is all.

The best part about currently being obsessed with a weird little dude that i made up is I get to throw him into different situations

Like. Especially because of the whole prince's special knight thing. I can either slap Cameron into a situation all on his own and see where that goes or put him And henrick into situations and rate them both around

If cam is out on his own, it means he doesn't have a hen to keep him balanced so he will either spiral or find someone to fill that position of endless devotion. If they are both there then hen will gently guide him into being a presentable human person rather than rhe anger and spite fuelled weapon he will be otherwise. If hen isn't there but he finds someone for counter-balance, how do they handle it? Are they good natured and patient enough to convince him of his worth as a person? Will they fail in either of those things? How would that go down? Or would they encourage him and go on a spree together?

Me glancing at steam d@wntrail reviews

robert downy jr meme: They are missing the point that this is a slow journey before destination story about trying to sincerely learn about, communicate with and work with others because we all have differing perspectives and lives that could benefit one another. That we should not jump to judgements of people we only see the basic surface of because there is always a reason for people's actions. That everyone is worth saving, yeah even that one that did unforgivable shit.

Ah someone else who has discovered the joys of Camelot (1967) a movie that I am completely normal about. Have you watched it? Because the delivery of the lines is everything and if you need someone to talk to about it I am, once again, completely normal about it. The scene where Lancelot and Arthur first meet?? A masterpiece in sharing a single braincell. And don't even get me started on the way Guenevere first treats Lancelot "have you jousted with humility lately". It's unapologetically at the top of my Arthuriana movie rank list and has gotten me to reread The Once and Future King

I have not watched the film yet!

I've been listening to the original cast recording on Spotify but, most importantly, I've read the book of the original Broadway production (1960 libretto) and I love it?? It's a delightful little read on its own, even without having watched the musical. (I want other people to read it please it's very funny I promise)

I guess the 1967 film script won't be identical to the libretto but I assume it's fairly similar.

The scene where Lancelot meets Arthur was hilarious it made me laugh out loud. Lancelot utter puzzlement ("Gone a-Maying, Your Majesty??"). Arthur's sudden self-consciousness.

And don't even get me started on the way Guenevere first treats Lancelot "have you jousted with humility lately"

I know!! Lancelot's grating self-righteousness coupled with his complete lack of self-awareness is so funny.

And I loved the gradual tone shift. It starts out so silly and the tragedy sneaks up on you — I thought Guinevere and Lancelot's affair might be played for laughs with an oblivious Arthur but no, it turns out he's fully aware of what's going on and he's forced to watch it unfold because he's powerless to stop it? and he loves them both and doesn't want any harm to come to them even as they betray him??

(He continues talking, looking from one to the other, feverishly — painfully) — Excuse me??

and King Pellinore is hilarious, he enters the scene wearing a monocle followed by a little mongrel named Horrid and talking like a character from a P. G. Wodehouse's novel. Extremely validating because when I read that chapter in Le Morte d'Arthur in which King Pellinore first makes an appearance my first question was "is he meant to be this funny?" and the answer from this script is a resounding YES.

I think I might perhaps watch the 1968 stage production first, merely because it's available for free on Youtube (at least in the UK).

I might try hunting for a free streaming link to the 1967 film, though I don't mind renting it if I can't find it.

One thing we have to get out of the habit of doing as godly people…

Is thinking that we can tell people what they can and cannot do, or tell them what they should and shouldn’t do.

One thing the Bible states clearly is that we are not to force the Gospel on anyone. We can teach it through our own attesting (or testimony) but we are not to suggest that “what I do is what you must do”. We are a beacon of God but we do not command others, GOD DOES.

We walk the walk of Yahusha (Jesus) to be an example of how to be… not necessarily to make people conform to how we carry ourselves.

For example:

I wear the veil, and I do it for God YAHUAH and Messiah Yahusha (Jesus Christ).

I believe it’s called for by God and I do preach the practice but I encourage others to join me in that walk by saying:

“Hello 👋🏾 I am Paris, and I practice modesty and veil. I do this for God and Yahusha because I have been called to by God and I have a strong conviction to follow His commands, here is what God taught me about it and here is what I gain from it. If you ever want to do the same, know that it’s okay and it’s beautiful, and you won’t regret it, although there will be challenges. And I’ll be here with you to help you along your way. ”

BUT NEVER DO I SAY

“Hey, God said to veil and practice modesty and I think you should be doing it too and you shouldn’t ever take it off. And you wrong right now for not doing it. Period”

That’s not the way of God. That’s judging your peers.

It’s not our place to tell people what they should and shouldn’t do. God gives the commands and everyone has a choice whether or not to follow it AND EVEN have the choice and opportunity to decide or discuss it with God for themselves and if He says they are fine with Him just as they are with all they are doing already then that’s that. And it’s no one else’s business what their individualistic relationship with God is like or about. All we are to do is be an example of what God has taught us. And we teach it to others with love, grace, and leniency. Because God is the alpha and omega, He is the enforcer. Not us.

We are simply meant to teach the laws and commands of God, but we are not the ones meant to enforce them. Only God is.

Don’t mistake or mix up, advisement and judgement. When people mistake their judgement of others as themselves advising others, they often use the excuse of “I’d rather be advised by someone than be condemned by God if no one told me”… BUT they are confused for thinking this because there’s a difference between me informing someone of what God said & me telling them that they SHOULD do what He said or else they are less than they should be…

Teaching the word of God does not require for you to tell people what they should and shouldn’t do and it does not require belittling who someone already is in order to teach them.

If you pay attention Yahusha (Jesus) never said “you all should listen to me” or “you MUST do as I say”…. What He did say while teaching was “IF you choose to listen to the words I speak about God, you will gain THIS from it” and he said “IF you were to submit to God in this way, He will move mountains for you”… Yahusha (Jesus) didn’t truly speak in a commanding way, He just commanded the people with His examples of how to be and His energy alone. He led by example long before He ever judged anyone for not being a certain way or doing a certain thing. He gave them the knowledge of God and then let them do with it whatever they pleased.

Advisement is me telling you what God said and the positive things it can do for you if you heed it, but judgement is me trying to tell you that you must do it or else. That’s not my place to say such a thing. Because only God is the one that can say that to anyone. We cannot tell anyone what they must do. And we cannot foreshadow punishment if they do not do it. We can only tell them what we do for God and how we came to be that and why & the consequences we have witnessed for not doing or not being that…the rest is for God to say and do.

Godly people, seriously, we cannot tell people what they can and cannot do. Or what they should and shouldn’t do.

“You shouldn’t wear that”

“You shouldn’t ever take your veil off”

“Don’t take it off”

“Put it on”

“A woman shouldn’t be…”

Those statements are all COMMANDS.

Of which we are NOT at liberty to give.

Only God Himself gives the commands. We can tell people what He commanded but not under any circumstances are we the ones meant to enforce those commands. Not at all, we are not…

In conclusion, give one another grace and respect, and know that teaching the Gospel requires a balanced being, and an unbiased approach that gives knowledge with lovingkindness and gracefulness. It is to be taught in a way that emphasizes Gods gift of free will, and knowing full well that people have the CHOICE to do or not to do, or to be or not to be.

The idea is to advise to be better without belittling the person for who they already are.

It is not easy to do but it’s doable. Try harder godly people. Try harder. I noticed that many people do not actually know what it means to not judge others, and some know what it means but seriously do not know how to “not judge”. They just don’t know how to do it. They can’t help it. They don’t know how to not judge others. They don’t know how to be nonjudgmental…They really do not understand what it is fully and how to do it fully. It’s not their fault, because mankind has normalized the judgement of others so much that people have no concept of how to completely eliminate it. But we must try. Jesus was nonjudgmental and if you want to be like Him in spirit, you have to learn this too.
