whats that kink called that you get from reading too much fantasy lit as a child that makes you want to be tortured in front of someone who loves you so you can see the pleading desperation in their eyes and hear how much they love you in between the cracks of their voice and really truly believe they would do anything to save you. also you get to look so cool and brave and covered in blood and soooo able to withstand pain haha no just me? ok

The thing with being friends with people from the global north is that deep down they don't see you as their equal. They hide their disdain very well. This is especially true for friends you made from tumblr.

whenever someone pops off about how crystals and astrology and woowoo shit are so inherently girlboss feminism male tears smash the patriarchy I remember the time a couple years ago when one of my friends bought like a magic blind bag from a new age shop and it contained, I shit you not, a recommendation to write a note to the police thanking them for all of their hard work

Fun fact: China, India, and the USA all have government agencies committed to promoting medical psuedoscience.
Technically China's agency is meant to regulate "Traditional Chinese Medicine" quackery and the USA's agency is meant to study "Alternative Medicine" quackery, but both engage in practices that ultimately lend undue legitimacy to fake healthcare rather than exposing or limiting it. India's Ministry of Ayush is a lot worse because it purposefully promotes fake healthcare, including both globally popular quackery (homeopathy) and India's own homegrown quackery (ayurveda)
#rearchived#hey so like idk how much this input counts#but when i was in middle school my parents got recommended an ayurvedic hospital to help w treatment for my eyes#(there wasn't an issue regarding it per say aside from the fact that i had thick glasses (still do) and they wanted my eyes to get better)#so they took me there#said ayu place put me on a once in six mnths treatment#where they'd pour boiling ghee and milk in my eyes to help “restore my eyesight”#this would go on for a week straight for about 2 hours everyday#and during this one week i cldnt look at devices eat spicy or oily or food w chilli in it#or read books#or even wear my glasses#i stopped going during covid and eventually never went back; at first due to lack of time and second because i got old enough to start usin#-serious threats to avoid going back#and guess what that treatment did! nothing! literally fuck all!#all it did was lowkey make it feel like i was being tortured and be extremely painful#i wld cry during the sessions and they'd tell me to just get over it!#ppl laugh at my aversion to ghee today but idk man#anyway. all this to say.#please please please keep in mind that ayurveda (and ayush in general) is highly unscientific and their focus on spirituality is literally#nothing but a fad#sorry for dumping all that but i genuinely hate ayurveda

scars in real life: so I was trying to open macaroni sauce with a paring knife
