People think being self aware cancels out mental illness. That when you realise your thoughts or behaviours are irrational you just stop having/doing them
Instead what happens if you're extremely self aware and mentally ill is that you just think in a resigned kind of way "I'm being really fucking crazy right now" while being very loudly mentally ill
Sometimes you are able to tell the people around you "oh, you can ignore me rn. I'm just being extremely mentally ill rn. It will eventually pass" and then continue your erratic behaviour. But mostly it's just privately thinking: "well this is embarrassing but I can't turn it off so just gotta deal with it I guess."
I think its very funny when polls on here get genuinely statistically appropriate results. Why yes, 10% of humanity lives on the southern hemisphere, and 12% of humanity are left handed. Every bell curve shaped result. "are you smarter than the median person" being split 50/50. I really enjoy every mostly bell curve shaped height result with a slower tape off on the tall end. Its perfect
Do you ever forget that you have a gender to most people….. meaning that random people at the grocery store see me as a woman and not just a little internet guy
It's funny, people talk about Peace Walker being the most japanese game in the series wrt the music and the anime school girl, but i haven't seen anyone mention the japan specific "I'm not a fascist but" that Kaz pulls in his introduction. It seems to have gone over a lot of people's heads!
Kaz is a yukio mishima fan. This explains literally everything about him. He suddenly makes sense. hes a yukio mishima fan
the trick to Fire Emblem Three Houses is that you think Faerghus is a Kingdom (Heroic fantasy where the One True King is going to return to the throne and bring peace to the land) when in fact Faerghus is a Kingdom (Autocracy with impassible class barriers and structural misogyny)
Thinking about that one guy i found on 2007 livejournal who got a whole bunch of hate for saying he wished there was more snake/otacon fic where snake bottomed.
