“stupidity” and “dumbness”

i kind of want to share a take i had on “stupidity” and “dumbness” because of a thought i had earlier…..

im really nervous to say it publicly due to how i know a number of people are going to want to openly argue or debate…some more harshly than others,,,,, but here it is:

i do not believe in “stupidity” and “dumbness”. i do not think there is such thing as someone being dumb or stupid. nobody is stupid or dumb ((debatable sentence i know,,,just try to bear with me)).

i understand someone having a misunderstanding or struggling to understand something, but i never think that they are outwardly “stupid” or “dumb” just because they don’t understand or do not know what that thing is or means. 

for example, someone can know plenty about how cats purr. if someone does not know how a cat purrs, are they dumb/stupid? no, they simply just do not have that same understanding/know as much as that person who does know about how a cat purrs.

how about an animator and a surgeon? one knows more about how to make a frame-by-frame animation, and the other knows how to operate on the human body. does that make either dumb/stupid for not knowing much in each other’s field? no, they just don’t know much about each other’s job works.

this goes for spelling/grammar too. in my mind, you aren’t stupid if you spell a word wrong/forget how it’s spelled, or how to use certain grammar.

you are not stupid nor dumb for not knowing/understanding something. everybody is at different levels of understanding/knowledge about everything, so it feels unfair to call someone “dumb” or “stupid” just because they have a lesser understanding/knowing about something than you.

i don’t think i explained too well…my apologies, i will try to be clear if anyone has questions on anything i said.

please be respectful with any opposing opinions/thoughts against anything said!! please do not be rude…! 

thank you!

Something I do for myself with unhealthy stuff is ask myself if any fictional characters I look up to would do it. Sure they’re not real, and I’ll prob never be anything like them, but the act of trying to do one thing like the character at a time does help with control and makes you feel stronger. What you do is up to you in the end, but it would be cool if you at least read this and think about it.

Link was born in the far away kingdom of Hyrule and was born the son of the King's personal guard, and was named after the heroes of legend who wielded the blade of evil's bane, either in their honor, or in hopes that the child would be the hero of this era. He grew up in Hateno Village, a humble town with his sister and grandfather, and lived a mostly normal life, if not skilled with a sword as to live up to his heritage. The boy had a lot of energy and loved exploring places no one else would go. One day, the boy heard of a rumor that a certain fortune teller prophesized the return of an ancestral evil, the Demon King, Gannon, he would venture into the Lost Woods, a maze of trees very few would ever find whatever was at the end alive, and even fewer would return to tell the tales. By some miracle, be it the writings of fate, extreme thought into the situation, or simply good fortune, the 12 year old would make it through the woods and make it to Korok Forest, the home of the Korok race, a race of wood spirits, the Great Deku Tree, guardian deity of the Koroks, and one very, VERY important element that would change his fate forever. The hero's blade, the sword that seals the darkness, the weapon forged by Goddess Hylia and her six sages, this sword had many names. The first ever hero, however, dubbed her the Master Sword. Link would approach this sword to try and pull it out, knowing that only he who bears the soul of the ever reincarnating hero could hold the blade and show it's true shine, most heroes even had to at least be 16 years of age to be powerful to hold the weapon. Against all unlikelihood, however, the 12 year old Link pulled the Master Sword in all it's glory. With his skill that dropped adults to the floor, speed that looked looked like he slowed the flow of time, and the sword that seals the darkness in his hands, the boy was praised as Hyrule's greatest warrior, and was assigned to be one of five champions assigned to fight Gannon's calamity when he returned. That would sound great to most, but the child would find himself with less energy in his face and showing less personality over time. In his mind, no one would ever see him as anything but Hyrule's hero, so if he were happy, no one would care, or if he were scared, everyone in the kingdom would lose hope. This mentality grew to the point where he would stop outwardly expressing his emotions and would rarely speak, if at all. When he was 17, Link was assigned to be the bodyguard for the King's daughter, Princess Zelda. At first Zelda hated Link, as the daughters of the royal family are said to inherit the powers of Hylia herself. But Zelda was unable to awaken the divine light of the Goddess and was expected to use them to seal away Gannon once and for all, so she saw Link, who had lived up to every expectation Hyrule had for him and then some, as everything she wasn't. After Link saved her life from an assassination attempt, however, Zelda had erased her thoughts that the champion hated her, and the two would connect more. The bond between the two chosen to do battle with the calamity had become stronger and stronger, she was one of the few people in the world Link felt comfortable expressing himself in front of, while the princess started falling for the knight. On her seventeenth birthday, however, Gannon had returned and had corrupt all of Hyrule, killing all champions but Link and Zelda. The brave knight would defend the princess' life from the guardians, machines posessed by Gannon's calamity until he didn't have enough energy to lift the Master Sword anymore, and until the blade itself was rusted and brittle, and as one last guardian was about to end his life, Zelda awakened her powers and had destroyed the dark machines with her holy light. It was, however, to late for Link to stay in this world, so Zelda brought him to a shrine that supposedly could resurect those near to death, returned the Master Sword to Korok forest in it's pedestal to repair itself, and went to Hyrule Castle to fight Gannon herself. A battle that would make the demon king lose most control over Hyrule, but he would still grow in power while Zelda would weaken. A battle that would last until the Sword, and Link were repaired and alive again. A battle that would rage on for one century. When Link had awakened from his long slumber, he had lost his memory and fighting skill, but also his mentality of keeping to yourself. He would travel Hyrule in search of who he was, but as he remembered more and more of who he was, Zelda, and all his friends and family from his past life, his goal would change to defeat Calamity Gannon. He would remaster the blade, put the spirits of the champions to rest, find successors to said champions, and reclaim the Master Sword, all in an attempt to save Zelda. The princess and her resurected knight used every tool, skill, and ability in their disposal to finally seal away the great calamity, and Link and Zelda could now meet once more after 100 years, and the knight was dubbed, "Hero of the Wild". The century old survivors would work to rebuild Hyrule, but one last remnant of calamity had survived and built itself stronger and stronger, and instead of fighting the hero, would destroy the world's foundation. Hyrule began to crumble, and could not last for much longer, so, using the last bit of her power, Zelda sent Link and whatever lives of Hyrule's people were left to another world to live there lives in a world that would live on, as Hyrule's last princess, dropped to the decaying ground, dead. Link would swear that he would find a way to restore Hyrule, no matter how many years it would take. The world Link was sent to was Nirn, a world not to different from Hyrule's Earth, but certainly many unique races, magic, and lore. He would here rumors of powerful relics called Elder Scrolls, which may have the power to bring Link back in time to destroy that last piece of Gannon's essence before the destruction of Hyrule. After 20 years of searching, an Imperial soldier would try to use his rank to "Overpower" a child on Skyrim's border, so Link killed him. The group of soldiers he was with saw the aftermath out of context and arrested Link, who fought off a good many of them before getting caught and sent to the chopping block. As we all know, however, that would only be the beginning of a new adventure for the last Hero of Hyrule. As you can tell, I'm making full use of the Zelda gear in Skyrim on switch. Also sorry I haven't been drawing as much because my drawing monitor broke. Also I'd like feedback on if you'd like to see more art like this.

KAK, it’s been a good while since I’ve posted anything on tumblr.

Anyway, really loving that we actually have some official announcement on BOTW 2. You may recall I didn't make one of these in my Zelda month collection. My reasoning is because I just didn't have the time to do so since I was still in school at the time, also this may look a little rushed now, but I hope you like it. Also, one last thing, apparently the guy with long hair and the green top might actually be the Link from 10,000 years ago, which might be why this guy's face is never shown, so him looking at Hyrule Castle in this probably doesn't make sense in now with that info. (also KAK yeah metroid dread)

TW Don’t kill yourself today

Don’t kill yourself today

Because your Netflix trial still has a week left

Don’t kill yourself today

Because no one else will finish off the chicken in the fridge

Don’t kill yourself today

Because I know for a fact that Starbucks is releasing a new Frappuccino sometime next month

Yes, your mother will miss you

Yes your bully will make a sappy Facebook post about how what a a wonderful person you were

And yes

Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem

You know that

You’ve known that

Everyone and anyone has been shoving that down your throat since they first learned what the word suicide meant

So don’t kill yourself

Until you finish your shampoo and conditioner at the same time

Don’t kill yourself

Until Doctor Who is finally cancelled

Don’t kill yourself

Until you tell someone your best pasta recipe 

Don’t kill yourself 

Because I will keep coming up with reasons for you not to

And I need you

To hear all of them

Don’t kill yourself

I love you

You’re important

It’s a bad day

Not a bad life

There is more to this

The world will keep spinning on its axis without you

But

Think of all the sunrises you’d miss

I know this sounds pointless

But when you’re sitting in front of everything deadly you own

Revising your goodbyes

There will be too much darkness 

To see anything else

But this is not about seeing anything else

This is about turning off the lights

This is about finding the bed instead of the noose

This is about giving yourself one more day

Even if it takes ten thousand of those

One more morning’s

Until

“I can’t wait for tomorrow”

This is about staying alive

Because there’s gonna be a new Marvel movie

No one should miss that

This is about staying alive

Because the future is coming 

And it’s ready for you

I don’ t need you to see it

I just need you to believe you can make it 

Until then

- Hannah Dains

Love this, but reblogging it specifically for “Get rid of secret rules.” That’s one of the most amazing illustrations—and points—I’ve ever seen.

so important especially for perfectionists who procrastinate and never finish, or even start because they set such high standards for themselves.

“Kill until” and “get rid of secret rules” are, I have to say, what really did it for me.

i remember i once took a vow to never make friends again because i felt like i only hurt rather than helped my past friends. i felt like the reason why they no longer wanted to be close to me anymore was because i was a bratty and childish friend.

i sometimes don’t feel good about having broke that oath and made new friends, because i’m afraid that i will become that bratty and childish friend again, whether i mean to or not. i’m afraid that the friends i currently have don’t want to be as close to me as they are, and feel like they are obligated to have to be my friend. i’m afraid to wind up in an endless cycle of always losing friends and never having someone close because of my childish demeanor.

but i’ve learned that friends can be hard to make sometimes.
