all fanfiction is funnier and sexier and vastly better-written when you read it at three in the morning, in the dark, lying on your side, tucked into bed, with screen rotate turned off. that’s just how it works. that’s just facts.

ok, but what’s the mood for the month of august?

I don’t have a train of thought I have seven trains on 4 tracks that narrowly avoid each other when the paths cross and all the conductors are screaming

there is so much hurt and sadness inside of me and i have no idea how to control it anymore

if that isn’t the contrast between me and my Slytherin boyfriend i don’t know what is 

slytherin and the 4 elements : water 

water bending is all about taking defense moves and being able to use them as offense as well, taking what you know and using it to your advantage ; slytherins are often known for their resourcefulness ; a trait shared

Growing up religious means having random bursts of intense atheism then random bursts of intense religionism then random bursts of intense existentialism it’s like a more chaotic philosophical version of being genderfluid tbh

I’m actually envious of people who can have a conversation with their parents and can open up to them about their feelings. Like howww? How nice must your parents be for you to do thattt? Teach me your ways.

My parents are going away for two weeks

So my parents are going to Saudi Arabia for two weeks on a religious pilgrimage. Not hajj but umrah. What am I gonna do while they’re gone? Throw a party? Get drunk? No. I’m gonna sleep when I want, listen to music loudly, leave my phone on charge if I need to leave the room instead of taking it with me, I’m gonna turn notifications back on for my social media. There are so many little things I’m gonna be able to do that I can’t normally do. They’re small but they make a big difference. It’s a small taste of a freedom I can’t wait to have once I leave home.

Authoritarian parenting doesnt work

Your kids will still find out what sex is

Your kids will find out what drugs are

Your kids will read things you dont want them to and talk to people you didnt permit them to

When youre an authoritian parent, what you do is teach your kids how to keep secrets, and at worst give them horrible mental trauma from being so isolated or unfortunately uneducated

So when choosing whether to be overly controlling and authoritarian or not youre choosing whether your kid will grow up and learn about these things from their peers and you will never know, or whether your kid will grow up and learn about these things from a person with experience and being properly taught about them (if not already by the internet) and you will know so they can be safe and knowledgable.

Having an authoritarian parent never stopped me from smoking weed

Or drinking

Or having sex and dating

All it ever left was mental scars and at best did nothing

My mom better thank the internet

Want your child to lose 100% trust in you? go through their text messages, put spyware on their computer, and invade all of their personal privacy. because I promise nothing will fuck them up more than the idea of them not expressing their thoughts and feelings to their friends without someone who they’re supposed to trust invading that personal space. Unless your child is behaving in a suspicious way, there is no reason to do it. None. All it teaches is ways to hide it better and how to not trust you or anyone in their lives. In fact, here’s an idea: start treating your children like people, not property. Because, you know, that’s what they are.

my house my rules = I know you have nowhere else to go, so forfeit all your human rights and give all control to me if you want to keep living, having a house now gives me the right to treat you like my property
