society: why are so many young ppl developing eating disorders and other mental illnesses???

also society: you will only be truly happy if you lose weight/if you're skinny! that's self-care! 😘

#the mental health tag on tumblr is filled with the same skinny white women going to the gym every single day #and btw i know the gym itself isn't the problem #exercising isn't the problem #it's how society romanticizes it for the sake of losing weight #they say it's not about 'aesthetics' but it's still definitely about body image lol #also i feel like they exclude disabled ppl who aren't able to exercise #or can't afford a gym or doesn't have access to one #it's still fucking ableist!!!! #lotus.txt #ableism tw #fatphobia tw #ranting #ranting in tags

this might sound harsh but honestly i think nate (and i guess crew-ra overall) is completely irresponsible for reinforcing the idea that abuse and bullying are okay because "they hit you because they like you". in a FUCKING KIDS SHOW. spop is teaching wrong ideas about romance and friendship to younger audiences, which is so infuriating because they still make it clear that shadow weaver is bad (which is correct) but they don't apply the same thing to catra who does similar if not worse things than SW does.

like i bet this show would've been a lot more harmful if i watched it when i was much younger. it would make me believe that abuse and bullying are okay because my abusers/bullies have tragic backstories that automatically excuse them, so i would be the one in the wrong.

#i post #spop critical #abuse tw #there are many kids in this fandom obviously #so it's disgusting to see spop romanticizing abuse like this #even though in earlier episodes they had a better approach #but nate just REALLY wanted to make his stupid otp canon #like i said in another post #WHY COULDN'T YOU MAKE ANOTHER SHOW?! #THAT ISN'T FOR KIDS #even if it still sucked at least you wouldn't teach this bullshit to KIDS #ugh. #ranting in tags #ranting

every time someone points out the fatphobia in a piece of media, there will always be that person who'll justify "but it's not actually fatphobic!!! it's actually very progressive!!!", or they'll basically say that op is exaggerating bc the piece of media in question is a beloved flawless work of god

#captain's log #fatphobia tw #ranting #this is basically what happened when i criticized yuri on ice's stupid fatphobic jokes #everyone told me that it was the intention of the writers #that yuri should learn to love himself #yeah SURE. #his actual love interest calling him a pig or fatso is certainly encouraging /sarcasm #and i'm not actually a fat person #fat ppl get even worse treatment when they point it out themselves #ranting in tags

// personal

"of course your dad loves you!" today i was feeling rlly sad and i had some terrible back pain, so much i nearly cried, and instead of asking me what was wrong, my dad just told me i could call a fucking uber, lol. and he was annoyed instead of showing any concern. just bc he was with his friends and he didn't want to deal with me.

fucking asshole.

#lotus speaks #personal #venting #just bc my dad pays my shit doesn't mean he's a good dad #this asshole makes me feel worthless #that when i'm feeling depressed or sick #i should just leave and isolate myself #instead of bothering him #or anyone #AND THEN #he fucking dares to be upset when i don't ask for his help #WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS GODDAMMIT #sorry guys i'm feeling so angry rn #venting in tags #ranting #ranting in tags

// TRIGGER WARNING - hospitalization

i know that there are many, many different disabilities that manifest in unique ways, but i think the worst sensation i had while i was in a psych ward + in the partial hospitalization program was that i felt like i was still the "crazy" one in places that were supposed to make me feel less alone.

#like there were ppl with bpd there #as well as bipolar ppl #but every time i tried to talk to someone they always silenced me and i felt like i was losing my mind #not just the patients but the staff #literal mental health professionals were the coldest and more insensitive assholes i've ever met #straight up telling me my suffering isn't real #or when the director told me it would be my fault if i jumped from the window #and not the fucking hospital for not locking the doors and windows in empty rooms #what the hell!!!! #suicide mention tw #psych ward #partial hospitalization program #hospital tw #hospitalization tw #ableism tw #actuallybpd #actuallybipolar #venting #personal #my journal #ranting #ranting in tags

wow people on deviantart really are smth. someone made a favorite collection entirely dedicated to ut comics that were apparently "dead" after not being updated for three months and beyond.

I am genuinely so worried for all the young horny dykes going into adulthood thinking there's something "problematic" / "wrong" with them for being horny because fucking tiktok lesbians think any horny dyke content is "male gaze fetishitic"

#have seen screenshot after screenshot of that video saying love lies bleeding is fetishizing lesbians and?? muscles?? #i cant take this shit anymore #text #anyway stay horny! #concerning tags y'all!! bobbi is joking! sarcasm! joking! #(for the later reblogs with the added screenshots) #y'all are killing me with these notes though this was formatted to be like. a 30 note max rant post.

wow so all of a sudden i'm seeing ppl making videos "exposing" a youtuber, and most comments are shitting on said youtuber for "romanticizing obesity" even though they were like "hey, fat ppl, you can eat what you like!"

#i don't even bother watching the videos themselves #lotus.txt #i fucking hope the youtuber isn't being harassed SOLELY for this #but even then that is fucked up #i hate seeing fat ppl agreeing with this fatphobic mentality so others can use it as an excuse to be fatphobic #ugh #i hate the internet so fucking much #fatphobia tw #ranting #ranting in tags

tumblr shows me thumbnails of the spop related tags and... my god. it's either c//a being sexualized or CATRA on her own being sexualized. you guys know they are teenagers and one of them is supposedly a woman of color being treated like an animal, RIGHT?

#i post #anti stans #i am not showing the thumbnails bc they're disgusting imo #imagine you're a little kid and you want to see spop content #and then you see this shit #lmao ppl forget there are literal kids in this fandom #also i'm not like. against furries or anything #but like i always say #catra is a teenager #and latina women are soooo objectified and animalized it's crazy #and yet stans will call you racist for not liking catra or for disagreeing that she's latina #istg #ranting #ranting in tags #ask to tag

i'm gonna lose my fucking mind

#he speaks #i'm frustrated with google #ranting in tags #why is it that when i use double quotation marks in the search bar #it doesn't work #i've been trying to look for a specific word #which is the whole fucking point of using quotations marks if i'm not mistaken #but it doesn't even work #and of course when i add 'reddit' to the search bar #magically i find the exact question i've had #and funnily enough #i found this EXACT fucking scenario #and the post is from 9 years ago #god help us all

fatphobia under the guise of "concern" for one's health is still shitty, regardless of "good" intentions.

#captain's log #fatphobia tw #can't believe this is a hot take #but bigotry is bigotry #and if anything this kind of fatphobia is more frustrating #i'm not fat but i gained weight bc of medications and shit #and my dad keeps wanting to limit my consumption of sugar and fat #and he uses science as proof #but it's bullshit #science is bigoted as hell towards fat ppl #worst part is everyone is like this #fatphobia is not always gross out humor making fun of fat ppl #it's the ppl that disguise it as 'concern' and 'care' #when they're just being complicit and feeding the mentality #that gaining weight is bad #and you will be horribly punished for it (like developing diabetes type 2) #ok sorry for the long rant i just got pissed #long tags #ranting in tags #personal #(the diabetes thing btw is fake. you won't be diabetic for eating too much sugar) #(it's blatant misinfo)

man, i just can’t get into (mcu) stony. steve treats tony like garbage from the very first day they met - and it gets worse with each film -, and tony literally states his resentment of steve because his father wouldn’t shut up about him. this relationship never worked even as a friendship, i doubt they would work as boyfriends.

#lotus speaks #anti steve rogers #anti stony #- no i did not tag the ship please block me and block the anti tag #big brain yet: the avengers never cared about tony and they were never a family #they belittled tony and invalidated him #worse yet they thought the maximoff twins - especially wanda who brainwashed the poor guy #was better than tony who tried his best to keep the team together #who actually listened to team cap and changed his mind to help steve and bucky #but it all backfired on him #and it's revolting!!! #anti team cap #- in the tags #ranting in tags #long tags #tony stark defense squad

I know it's not really black and white, but I don't like the "two sides" approach to abusive parental-child relationships.

Y'know, pretty much the argument "you need to understand their side too!" And buddy, I am more than aware of my parents' crappy childhoods. I'm also aware that it very much affected how my parents raised me and my brother. That having a kid was tough for them, that they only know how to show love like that, that they don't know what they're doing, etc. etc. etc.

But WHY do I, their mentally ill, traumatized child, need to understand THEIR side? Why am I expected to validate their trauma and not mine? Why am I not allowed to be ANGRY at my parents? I'm the VICTIM in question, the one who got the worst of the situation, and yet what seems to matter more here is how my poor mommy and daddy suffered so much, they couldn't raise their kids properly :(

This isn't a fucking "two sides" situation. Abuse is not balanced. Abuse is not a mutually toxic dynamic. Abuse hurts, in many different ways, someone (or people) vulnerable and unable to fight back. This is especially the case for a parent - a GROWN FUCKING ADULT - abusing their child. "Two sides" here is useless.

And yet the abusive parents are the ones who get the most compassion and support out there. As for their kids, forever scarred with trauma and mental illness? Nah. Who cares?
