Or taking a massive shit
3 am is such a powerful time. there are people sleeping. there are people partying. there are people having a movie marathon. there are people crying. there are people loving. there are people dying. there are people living. toegther at 3 am.
I'm currently studying to become a teachers assistent so i have to learn about every ilness, or study disability and basicly everything children from the age of 0 till 20 can go through. I go to every class, do all my homework and i ace all my tests. But it takes like 100000x more effort than my classmates. I have days where i cant get anything done so i have to work even harder on other days so i can finish the 5 assignments i have due. I also never read the books, i never read the books. I memorise everything from class and look up the bits im missing at most.
So i get high scores and im pretty much on top of my class, but its exhausting. I just keep living from assignment to assignment. I have to take all my energy and strength to make it to the next break where i collapse and need to regather all my energy.
But dont get me started on math, i dropped math in highschool. That was actualy a idea from my teacher becouse she saw it.just coused me stress and frustration. But now i have math again and its realy getting in my way of getting the study points i need. I can do the basics, i know 1+1 is 2 becouse i memorised most things but as soon as it gets a bit more advanced my brain stops working. I keep trying to tell my teacher i just cant do it and she keeps telling me to practise so every math class and every test is absolute hell. I open my book to do my homework and sometimes actualy start crying becouse i feel dumb.
Becouse of this post i realised its a common thing and i will be doing more research.
For everyone who DOESN’T have ADHD, congrats, the last 24 hours have showed you exactly what it is like. For everyone else who DOES have ADHD and has spent the day on an ADHDx2 speedrun like I have, I don’t know how we haven’t short-circuited either.
Okay, we really do need to address the anti blackness in our own community, so why dont we start with Mahatma Gandhi?
The man was a racist. He actually supported racial segregation when he was hurt when people discriminated against him based on his race. How hypocritical do you have to be?
I'm going to attach a bunch of screenshots here from an article I read about Gandhi being a racist, which is a must read because HOW HYPOCRITICAL WAS GANDHI THIS MAN SHOULD NOT BE PUT ON A PEDESTAL
The point of the story here, is antiblackness is rampant in indian culture, and we shouldn't be ignoring it or turning away from it. I am majorly sorry for what I said there, and everyone who called me out was right:- we should speak up about the discrimination we face, but in no way should we compare ourselves to any other race, or undermine black people in any way. Black lives matter. Black lives are important. Black lives are loved. Yall are doing absolutely amazing, and we support you. We're sorry for our actions.

romanticizing mental illness is dangerous and misleading
Me: *gives my 6y/o brother a vew euro's for helping me out all day*
Other people: you dont have to give him so much he is just a child.
Me: *gives him more*
Like bro idc he is 6, he helped me a lot today so he deserves to get some actual money.
If you pay children a vew cents for hard work becouse "they dont need money"
Fuck you
unfriendly reminder: this is a sex worker positive space. I will not tolerate the disrespect of sex workers here, and if you cant agree with that without a doubt then you're not welcome here.
Reminder that the ‘Gandhi’ who you idolise and celebrate every year:
1. Urged Jewish people to commit mass suicide
2. Forced little girls to sleep with him
3. Was extremely racist towards black people
4. Supported caste + poverty
5. Stole the credit of freedom fighters who died as martyrs for independence
6. Viewed women as ‘objects’ for men’s pleasure or pride
7. Cared for cows but not Sikh lives.
8. Constantly belittled and insulted his wife.
He was basically misogynistic, racist and a pedophile, why do we still celebrate his birthday and honour him as if he did the greatest things for our country?
Just an experiment. Reblog if you actually give a fuck about male victims of domestic violence and rape.
Of fucking course
What sick bastard doesn’t
HUGE NEWS!! THE SUPREME COURT JUST HAD A MASSIVELY IMPORTANT RULING THAT RESULTED IN NEARLY HALF OF OKLAHOMA BEING RETURNED TO THE NATIVES!
HERES AN ARTICLE ABOUT IT
Couple more thoughts about the Depp libel case before I shut up:
1. Thankfully, this was not a Depp vs. Heard trial. This was Depp vs. NGN. What this ruling practically means is that The Sun will not suffer consequences for calling Johnny a wife-beater. It is not the final ruling of Amber walking free. There’s another trial coming up with Johnny’s defamation case, which will be going to court next May in Virginia. That one is purely Depp vs. Heard.
2. The silver lining here is the outrage. Social media this morning has been nothing but people angry and confused about this verdict. In fact, I haven’t seen a single Amber supporter so far today, but hundreds of people asking for justice and horrified of the results of this trial. We all know it doesn’t take a court verdict to bring someone down when the public opinion is this loud and clear.
Support victims of abuse, including the men, and support them loudly, because the justice system does not.
Johnny Depp lost the trial against the Sun and I can't even begin to describe how shocked and angry I am.
Everyone saw the evidence. We all heard Amber Heard admitting to the abuse on tape. And they still ruled in her favour.
Justice for Johnny Depp
I just have a daydream which i continue for 8 days straight and then it gets boring and i go and watch another character being tortured
Tony, lying in bed about to go to sleep: shall I turn off the light?

*tony* kid, what the hell happened over there?

new favourite thing: peter parker getting kidnapped as an SI intern and going against all expectations
kidnapper: i know you're scared. this'll all be over soon, and we'll let you go unharmed ...if you give us what we want
peter: oh, no, please. keep me. i've got school and i'm really just not feeling it today, you know?
kidnapper: give us information on tony stark, we know you work for him
peter: okay, first of all, i'd say i more work with him? second of all, i don't know, man. he likes blueberries-
peter: i just think it's a little rude that you're holding me captive and not even being professional about it. you kidnapped iron man's intern, seriously. where's the passion? it's honestly depressing in here. oh my god, is that what's driving you? because i know a good therapist. i mean, i haven't seen them for myself yet, but mr. stark recommends them and he usually has good ideas-
kidnapper: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SOMEBODY SHUT HIM UP

(TLDR available at the bottom of this post)
look we got really fuckin screwed with the cursed child thing and then fantastic beasts imo, like I do like the fantastic beasts series but we have been waiting for more marauders content for decades now. so I’ve decided that fuck it, there’s no reason we can’t create it ourselves. we’ve been doing a hell of a job so far on fanfics and headcanons and fanart and every other form of media; why not the full seven book series we deserve?
at this point, it might be a fair judgement that the fandom has done more to build upon the world of the marauders and their relationships than the original series laid the grounds for. more canon content has been produced by rowling since then, but I believe a lot of our imaginings have been shaped by the many ideas that we as a community have come up with. that’s why I’d like to involve the entire hp community in creating this series (essentially crowdsourcing creativity/ideas). seven books for the marauders prequel story is a lot of ground to cover, and while I have a few ideas, I want the final product to truly reflect all the love and originality we’ve been pouring into this series for years.

Here is your friendly reminder to not comment on someones selfharm scars.
Please.
Dont.
Its none of your buisness, untill they come to you.
And please stop telling people with scars you'll beat them up if they ever do it again. You might feel like you are helping or whatever goes through your head when you think its actualy okay to say stuff like that.
When you say something like that you only help the person to feel more guilthy and horrible when they do have a relapse.
Also please dont touch other peoples scars, i have had many times where people rabdomly grabbed my arms to look at them. Its weird and very unnecesary.
And if you realy cant help the urge to comment on them, do NOT say that they are ugly or that they ruined their body.
Thank you.
As we enter Autism Acceptance month, I’m going to sincerely ask you to please, please read this article. Even if you’re not autistic and don’t know anyone who is, someday you might have autistic child, or know someone who does, and you need to hear the truth of ABA therapy from actual autistics.
I’m incredibly fortunate to be a self-diagnosed adult who never had to face ABA therapy, because just watching the videos in this article and reading the guidelines has me in actual tears and sick with rage. Maybe you can’t see it if you’re not autistic, but they treat these children in a way I would never even treat a dog. They treat them like things, like inconvenient problems to be solved, not human beings.
Why do they do that? Because the founder of ABA therapy said, “One way to look at the job of helping autistic kids is you have to construct a person. You have the raw materials but you have to build the person.“
ABA therapy is founded on the belief that autistics are not human beings. That our needs and our feelings don’t matter, the only thing that matters is forcing us into the shape of a “real” person, no matter what kind of damage or trauma it causes.
Please understand that autistic people behave the way we do for a reason. Because we’re overwhelmed, or upset, or in pain, or tired, or confused. Forcing the behavior to change doesn’t change the feelings, it just teaches a child that their feelings don’t matter and they have to suppress them in order to be good. Please value an autistic person’s needs over the appearance of normalcy. Please treat autistic children like human beings.
Oh, and if you needed any more incentive? The founder of ABA, O. Ivar Lovaas, was also instrumental in creating gay conversion therapy.
Please share this article with others.
