imagine peter meeting tony post-spell, and only then realizing how much tony used to love him. peter only realizes how much if Tony’s attention he got when he can’t get it anymore. he only realizes how rarely tony calls someone “kiddo” until it’s not aimed at him.
“you used to love me.” peter look into the billionaires eyes, or at least, where they much be, hidden under sunglasses. It wasn’t a question. “you used to live me, and i never noticed. i didn’t even see it. you loved me.”
Girls get made fun of for everything might as well do what you want lol

friendly reminder that you don't need any diagnosis or disorder to adapt your routine to accommodate you! sit down in the shower. brush your teeth and wash your face in the shower. bring a chair to the kitchen while you cook. use unscented products. your routine should be built for you.
Can i add? You also don't need any diagnosis or disorder to use things that will improve your life. Use a cane, install a shower chair, use a kid app for brushing your teeth if it helps to maintain your attention. You don't need permission to make your own life better.
it's always kind of funny to me when people insist that honesty is a virtue and you should always tell the truth because being good at lying is something that's been almost universally celebrated for thousands of years by pretty much all of humanity. like there are literally multiple folk tales and legends throughout history and across cultures that involve the hero tricking their adversary in order to win, and it's usually considered a disadvantage to mythical creatures such as faeries that they can't say things that aren't true.
lying to cops is an act of classical heroism
I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about all of the things that I enjoy about Heartstopper. I have reached the conclusion that it’s how Nick and Charlie don’t complicate each other’s lives. All of the difficulties that they face are not of their own making. They are not intentionally or even unintentionally torturing each other, even when one worries that they are burdening the other.
Honestly, it makes me think of a quote that Tan France said about his husband, Rob:
“He is the person that makes everything else easier. He is the constant. He is the easiest thing in my life, because he makes me so happy.”

im in the process of being diagnosed as schizoaffective bipolar & since then ive been dealing with a lot of internalized ableism & self-hatred because i feel like a subhuman freak. i only feel this way about myself, not other schizospec people. how can i get past the feelings of worthlessness & accept myself, mental illness & all? :(
I understand that feeling completely. I had the same belief when I was first diagnosed. I'm not gonna lie, accepting a schizo-spec diagnosis is a journey.
But you are no different from the other schizo-spec people that you do accept. You are part of our community. There are so many other people who know how it feels to have your symptoms, and also struggle to unlearn the stigma around it. You are not alone in this. It was helpful for me to find people online who proudly talk about their diagnosis, it helped me see that I wasn't uniquely strange, but part of a community of people who also felt that way. And even though stigma and sanism makes us all want to be silent about who we are, we are still part of the greater whole that is the schizo-spec community.
People with schizophrenia and schizoaffetive disorder are not outliers of the world, we (including you) are not the fuck ups that happen to be here. We are an important part of the world and what makes it what it is.
Acceptance will become easier with time. It's a diagnosis with a lot of stigma and judgment attached to it, so it only makes sense to feel like it makes you the awful things people claim we are. But if you can recognize that the stigma isn't true for every other schizo-spec person, then try to remind yourself that you are part of that, the stigma isn't true for you either. You aren't just the stereotype of "a schizoaffetive bipolar", you are a whole unique person with certain symptoms that fit you into a diagnosis that is only part of what makes you who you are.
There is nothing morally wrong, evil or bad about having a schizo-spec diagnosis, it's just a difference in how our brains work. It doesn't dictate who you are either, there are many schizo-spec people in the world, and we are all different. It's possible for someone with a schizo-spec diagnosis to be kind, happy, productive, creative, successful, fun and anything else, the possibilities are endless.
If you want more personal stories or want to talk through your feelings of your diagnosis as time goes on feel free to dm me if you're comfortable (I don't post those).
in your 20s you must rediscover the joys of arts and crafts to stave off spiritual decay
its hard for me to tease apart my support needs as an autistic person and my support needs from all my other disabilities... overall im probably medium-high support needs, and my autistic needs are likely medium... but at the same time, being autistic impacts my ability to fulfill my needs from other disabilities. so... medium-high support needs still.
this format is fucking horrifying

Friend affection Friend meeting :) share a chair when there’s not enough seating
there's something so compelling to me about the fact that sometimes leaving a blade or bullet inside the wound it made is the only way to prevent you from bleeding to death. something about the ironic symbolism of it. when the thing designed and intended to kill you is the only thing keeping you alive.
My favourite Da Vinky twins trans ally moments:
- When they said their pronouns are they/them because there’s 2 of them
- “It doesn’t matter what your pronouns are, because at the end of the day, it’s night”
