remind me to never ever ever share anything that brings me joy with other people

#my mother has graduated from acting bored and interrupting me while i talk about anything that interests me#to straight up shit on said thing the entire time i'm sharing with her...#decided to show her two music videos and she proceeded to find one thing she hated about the group#and voice how much she hated it throughout the entirety of both music videos...#obviously without even listening to the songs themselves...#and what makes me feel the most stupid is that I FUCKING KNEW she was gonna do something like that#i've been biting my tongue for the past week DYING to share this thing i LOVE with someone (her. the person that lives with me)#and i've been holding back because i knew she was gonna make me feel like shit about it#and today idk why i couldn't hold it anymore and asked if i could show her these videos#and i regret it so fucking much... I was right why the fuck didn't I follow my fucking gut?!#gooooodddd I feel like the stupidest person on the planet right now dkfjghdkfg#i'm stuck in a very weird emotion where I am laughing at this because I was so right#but i'm also simultaniously crying about it LOOOOL#I wanna kill myself#or just go mute and deaf and never communicate with anyone ever again#at least not about what brings me joy...#angel talks#personal

in my dream world that i live in sometimes we stop saying things like “NOBODY is gross or dirty!!!” And start saying things like “being gross or dirty isn’t a moral flaw or failing”

not brushing your teeth for months at a time is gross. It’s not a moral failing and does not make you a bad person.

being told I wasn’t gross online by posts by well meaning people when i was a very depressed young teenager for not showering for weeks did not make me feel better, because i felt gross and dirty. What would have actually helped was engaging with the reality (that it was a little gross, what i was doing/unable to do) but that it did not make me a bad person undeserving of help. “Youre not gross and (so) you deserve help!” Okay well i feel gross. This cant be aimed at me.

it also goes against your own brain- everyone thinks things are gross sometimes & to say Nothing is gross rings false. You can be gross and be loveable. Grossness is not failure. Grossness is not a flaw. Gross is not a moral thing. It’s just what it is and has no effect on personhood and i think preaching “having things about you that are dirty or gross does not make someone lesser or unworthy or failed” over “nothing is gross” will carry us a lot further

works for me, anyways. maybe it won’t for you, but it’s helped me a lot more than anything else has.

#i don't want to derail your post op that's ehy i'm writing it in the tags#but same thing with being fat#people will tell me ''you're not fat'' when what they mean is ''being fat doesn't automatically make you unattractive''#i am fat. i've been fat my whole life. i will most likely be fat for he rest of my life#being attractive or worthy of love has nothing to do with being fat or thin#someone saying i'm not fat is straight up lying to me#especially if what they mean is ''you're not fat and thus you are attractive'' cause I am fat and thus it means i'm not attractive#which would be fine but you wouldn't say that to someone unpromted lol

What's that bro? You began interacting with a media from a different country than yours and/or was made in time period different than the recent present day? Haha that's sick bro! Keep expanding your horizons bro! You're remembering to take into account that sociocultural norms, gender roles and genre expectations are different from what you are used to and meeting the story halfway, instead of forcibly superimposing your ideals into the story, right bro? Right? Right?

And, like, you're aware that being asked to understand that the story was written in a time and place with different values isn't the same as being ordered to embrace or worship those values, right? You get that you can simultaneously comprehend why those values exist within this media and think critically about how it contrasts with your own view of the world? You can hold both "I understand why this culture at this time would have acted like this was okay" and "I understand now that this isn't okay" in your mind at the same time?
