We’d like to take a moment to ask ALL MDers, on every platform, to take this brief poll. Awareness efforts have been scattered, with everyone doing their own thing. We’d like the community, as a whole, to decide when is the best time for a Maladaptive Daydreaming Awareness ‘observance’ of some kind. Every single vote matters.
If you are bi-lingual: Below there are links to this survey in various languages. Please, take them, carry them to any community or Maladaptive Daydreamer you know of in these languages.
Here is the survey in:

Taken from Loving: A Photographic History of Men in Love 1850s–1950s
the wretched abomination known as the minotaur has discovered some chalk

Kurt Cobain in “Montage of Heck” (2015)
this is the most heartbreaking scene in this chapter for me. sangwoo can’t accept the reality that bum truly loves him. Cuz He lived with a mother who acted like a loving person to him and kept repeating “I love you” to him with a kind smile when all she felt about him was an absolute hatred
i love you closeted queer people, i love you queer people who are afraid to "look queer", i love you queer people who hate getting told things like "you ping my gaydar" because that's scary, i love you queer people who are terrified of being outed, i love you queer people who don't fit the narrow tiktok/tumblr idea of what queer looks like (ESPECIALLY if you're disabled and/or a poc and that's part of why you don't), i love you queer people who rely on queerphobic family to survive, i love you queer people who find it hard to joke about their sexuality/gender, i love you queer people with a complicated relationship to being queer
Beautiful in every angle
