“I remember the first time I knew I had seen Taylor Alison Swift break free from the trap of stardom. I wasn’t sitting in a crowded stadium in the pouring rain or cuddled up in a movie theater with a bag of popcorn. I was watching a grainy, crackling livestream of the Eras Tour, captured on a fan’s phone.
It’s late at night, the beginning of her acoustic set of surprise songs, this time performed in a yellow dress. She begins playing “Hits Different.” It’s a new song, full of puns, double entendres and wordplay, that toys with the glittering identities in which Ms. Swift indulges.
She’s rushing, as if stopping, even for a second, will cause her to lose her nerve. She stumbles at the bridge, pauses and starts again; the queen of bridges will not mess this up, not tonight.
There it is, at the bridge’s end: “Bet I could still melt your world; argumentative, antithetical dream girl.” An undeniable declaration of love to a woman. As soon as those words leave her lips, she lets out a whoop, pacing around the stage with a grin that cannot be contained.
For a moment, Ms. Swift was out of the woods she had created for herself as a teenager, floating above the trees. The future was within reach; she would, and will, soon take back the rest of her words, her reputation, her name. Maybe the world would see her, maybe it wouldn’t.
But on that stage, she found herself. I was there. Through a fuzzy fancam, I saw it.
And somehow, that was everything.”

I just had the most wonderful dream about my and my "just a crush."
We were at school together doing a group project and we kept having nice moments. (I don't remember what exactly) At one point I took a video of him and a picture with him for some reason??
Then my friends joked about how I totally liiiikkee him. And they are not wrong. I don't remember all of it, but it was so nice.

Sean and Baby Colin Robinson was something I never knew I needed but I did. From Baby Colin thinking Laszlo doesn't like him to Sean making sure he knows that he not only likes him but LOVES him to Baby Colin admitting his love for creating chaos with hammers. Ending with Sean subtly making sure his gun was out of reach before questioning Colin on whether he would become a homicidal hammer wielding maniac... my heart 🥺

GRACIE LOOK
https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSR1SAJN6/?k=1
this have me thinking... what if five and his s/o have a proper wedding with his siblings invited (five didn't really think about having another one since he's busy thinking the apocalypse. idk who's the mastermind- i guess klaus)?
five and his fellow grooms, waiting for the bride and doesn't matter that they got soaked by the rain... THEN THEN WHEN HIS S/O BEGIN TO WALK TOWARDS THE ISLE- seeing them drenched and she put down her umbrella to join the fun.
the boys begin to sob.. "stop crying you idiot.", "these are tears of joy!" klaus said.
some said, a rain on your wedding day is good luck because it signifies that your marriage will last."
watch the link to take a good look. NOT A REQUEST BUT BUT A BRAINROT--
SHUT UP IM CRYING ON THE FLOOR OH MY GOD 😭😭
definitely klaus planned the whole thing (you can’t convince me five’s fav isn’t klaus) and klaus ugly cried the entire night
like y’all saw him at luther’s wedding imagine him marrying off his “little” brother
he’s sobbing and diego is like silent tears and luther definitely claps and cries 😭 viktor is a hot mess of oh my gOD and allison is just 🥹 dabbing at her tears
not to mention his s/o is probably crying bc they never got a wedding and it’s all so sweet and then five starts crying bc his s/o and siblings are crying
but everyone says “it’s raining these aren’t tears”
but everyone knows

Shout-out to the ER nurse who thought I was blowing him a kiss when really I was signing "thank you" across the hall so he blew me a kiss back.

Today my therapist introduced me to a concept surrounding disability that she called "hLep".
Which is when you - in this case, you are a disabled person - ask someone for help ("I can't drink almond milk so can you get me some whole milk?", or "Please call Donna and ask her to pick up the car for me."), and they say yes, and then they do something that is not what you asked for but is what they think you should have asked for ("I know you said you wanted whole, but I got you skim milk because it's better for you!", "I didn't want to ruin Donna's day by asking her that, so I spent your money on an expensive towing service!") And then if you get annoyed at them for ignoring what you actually asked for - and often it has already happened repeatedly - they get angry because they "were just helping you! You should be grateful!!"
And my therapist pointed out that this is not "help", it's "hLep".
Sure, it looks like help; it kind of sounds like help too; and if it was adjusted just a little bit, it could be help. But it's not help. It's hLep.
At its best, it is patronizing and makes a person feel unvalued and un-listened-to. Always, it reinforces the false idea that disabled people can't be trusted with our own care. And at its worst, it results in disabled people losing our freedom and control over our lives, and also being unable to actually access what we need to survive.
So please, when a disabled person asks you for help on something, don't be a hLeper, be a helper! In other words: they know better than you what they need, and the best way you can honor the trust they've put in you is to believe that!
Also, I want to be very clear that the "getting angry at a disabled person's attempts to point out harmful behavior" part of this makes the whole thing WAY worse. Like it'd be one thing if my roommate bought me some passive-aggressive skim milk, but then they heard what I had to say, and they apologized and did better in the future - our relationship could bounce back from that. But it is very much another thing to have a crying shouting match with someone who is furious at you for saying something they did was ableist. Like, Christ, Jessica, remind me to never ask for your support ever again! You make me feel like if I asked you to call 911, you'd order a pizza because you know I'll feel better once I eat something!!
Edit: crediting my therapist by name with her permission - this term was coined by Nahime Aguirre Mtanous!
Edit again: I made an optional follow-up to this post after seeing the responses. Might help somebody. CW for me frankly talking about how dangerous hLep really is.
#hlep#original#mental health#my sympathies and empathies to anyone who has to rely on this kind of hlep to get what they need.#the people in my life who most need to see this post are my family but even if they did I sincerely doubt they would internalize it#i've tried to break thru to them so many times it makes my head hurt. so i am focusing on boundaries and on finding other forms of support#and this thing i learned today helps me validate those boundaries. the example with the milk was from my therapist.#the example with the towing company was a real thing that happened with my parents a few months ago while I was age 28. 28!#a full adult age! it is so infantilizing as a disabled adult to seek assistance and support from ableist parents.#they were real mad i was mad tho. and the spoons i spent trying to explain it were only the latest in a long line of#huge family-related spoon expenditures. distance and the ability to enforce boundaries helps. haven't talked to sisters for literally the#longest period of my whole life. people really believe that if they love you and try to help you they can do no wrong.#and those people are NOT great allies to the chronically sick folks in their lives.#you can adore someone and still fuck up and hurt them so bad. will your pride refuse to accept what you've done and lash out instead?#or will you have courage and be kind? will you learn and grow? all of us have prejudices and practices we are not yet aware of.#no one is pure. but will you be kind? will you be a good friend? will you grow? i hope i grow. i hope i always make the choice to grow.#i hope with every year i age i get better and better at making people feel the opposite of how my family's ableism has made me feel#i will see them seen and hear them heard and smile at their smiles. make them feel smart and held and strong.#just like i do now but even better! i am always learning better ways to be kind so i don't see why i would stop
