honestly i think the counterpush against the toxic notions of “love will fix you” and “i can love them better” have swung too far and now people are saying things like “you can’t love someone else until you love yourself” and “it’s unhealthy to seek comfort from your partner when you’re mentally ill”

like let’s be fr here. the number one most effective intervention for mental illness is social support. i honestly think the devaluation of friendships and other non-romantic sources of emotional support has contributed to this issue — the common unhealthy extremes being “your romantic partner will heal you with love” and “you need to heal yourself on your own.” expecting a mentally ill person to recover entirely alone is not only cruel, it’s unrealistic and infeasible without social support. thus, it’s normal and healthy to rely on your romantic partner for comfort and support. it’s just that it BECOMES unhealthy if they are the only or the main source of comfort and support in a mentally ill person’s life.

so no, dating someone who loves you won’t fix your mental illness. but not having to cope with it alone damn well helps.

It’s all fun and games until someone brings up the fact that the scene where Percy tells Nico about Bianca is paralleled to Apollo telling him about Jason. The fact that Nico knew what happened in both situations, but still asked just in case it was all a bad dream. Just in case he had a ‘normal’ mortal dream rather than a factual dream. Oh, and then he runs away in both scenes, leaving a literal trail of death behind (ironic)

Redraw of this post.

Rick made Nico skip the 80s cause they’d be too powerful of a duo

when they’ve both lost an older sibling who acted as their parent while their mother was dead and their dad absent. Then later lost their best friend, but not before running away, killing someone, etc… i need a drink

safety risks for discord servers with NSFW content

with the ongoing enshittification of social media platforms like tumblr, the app formerly known as twitter, and reddit, many fandoms are opting for discord servers as a way to stay connected and creating. this is a great alternative, but due to the more personal interface of chat servers like discord, there can be some safety risks since discord allows NSFW. I think it's important to talk about them, because I don't think everyone understands them. (I'm censoring words so that this post doesn't get flagged by tumblr as violating community guidelines).

Discord does not regulate how NSFW is shared in servers, and this can be a great thing. However, this also means that server mods are mainly in charge of NSFW content regulation, which is a huge responsibility. when making a fandom discord server, it is absolutely critical that your server does not allow adults and minors into NSFW spaces together. Your discord server can be open to all ages, or it can have NSFW channels, but not both. The reason for this is that providing a space for adults and minors to talk about explicit s*x carries a massive safety risk for minors (i.e. s*xual gr00ming and exploitation), and a legal risk for adults, including server mods (i.e. being labeled a s*x offender, even if the adult has no intention of preying on minors, depending on the regional laws regarding s*xual exploitation of minors). This is different and riskier than a minor accessing NSFW content on their own online, because on discord it is specifically a direct exchange between adults and minors. It is extremely dangerous to allow adults to talk about explicit s*x with kids. I cannot emphasize this enough.

Enforcing this can seem tricky -- after all, minors lie about their age to get access to NSFW content all the time. But it's easy to identify content that is NSFW. Therefore, it is more enforceable to ban NSFW than it is to ban members depending on their age. The only safe option is to ban NSFW in a public, all-ages fandom server. NSFW should be reserved for servers that are private or invite-only, where you can invite only people that you know and trust to be the age that they say they are.

please stay safe and do your part to protect the most vulnerable members of your fandom community.

#^^^ this #especially “not both” bc I see a lot of ppl try to compromise and you just can't be doing that #internet safety
