| The delusion of being one step closer.
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Being one step closer signifies the proximity of achieving something, whether that might be an academic goal, a personal task, or anything. Being one step closer means you are almost there. You are almost at the end of the rainbow, ready to dig up that pot of gold. But in some cases, you may find yourself in a loop, a never-ending staircase. Take reality shifting, for example, you are one step closer to your desired reality. You are just 1cm away from reaching your burning desire to experience a new life. Perhaps that 'one more step' is what you take comfort in, it gives you that validation because you feel like you are doing something. One step closer implies separation.
In manifestation, separation is an illusion. It creates that unwanted barrier between you and your desired state. There is nowhere to GO to, there is nowhere to GET to, as this implies that you are divided from the state in which you desire to be in. Everything you experience in the outer world is a direct projection from assumptions and is as real as imagination. There is no 'fake'; if you can experience it in imagination, it exists and is ready to be projected into the outer world as soon as you feel that state. This is the law.
So, stop at the step you are at right now. That 'one more step' does not exist and is purely just a delusion. If you can occupy that desired state in your imagination then stay loyal and recognise that you are that state right now. Say 'no' to that bitter validation of being 'almost' there because you are there. There is no Uber in the world that will take you to your desired state of consciousness. Deny the evidence of the senses, because you walk in faith, not by sight.

everyone is strange, and being passionate is attractive. donβt be afraid to be who you are and enjoy life the way you want to
that comment about how you should not borrow grief from the future has saved me multiple times from spiraling into an inescapable state of anxiety. like every time i find myself thinking about how something in the future could go wrong i remember that comment and i think to myself: well i never know, it might get better. it might not even happen the way i think it will and if it does happen and it is sad and bad ill be sad about it then, when it happens. and itβs somehow soo freeing
gonna start being like luna lovegood in mindset. she believed in things that majority found absolutely outrageous and when laughed at and confronted with skepticism she was so genuinely confused and almost concerned for her BULLIES well-being cause?? ofc nargles are real and you should know this silly! and then just went on with her day. she is truly unshakeable in her belief and we could all take a page out of her book.
Hold up y'all know that blockages and limiting beliefs are not a thing right???? That nothing is holding you back right???? That they're just made up and not actually real right????
RIGHT??????
What do y'all think of my next enamel pin design π
first headcanons fic posted who cheered :P
more to come because i have a lot of ideas !!!
bakugou x reader platonic/best friend headcanons !!
Λβ§βΊΛ³ΰΌ Bakugou x reader; platonic/best friends edition !! Λβ§βΊΛ³ΰΌ
my personal headcanons on what it would be like to be best friends with him (this is also inspired by us in my MHA DR, based on backstory and how i imagine it'll go!)
content tidbits: strictly platonic bond (aroace bakugou and aroace reader implied) 2-A era, following the plot but not the full on war, swearing, gender neutral reader but some possible fem leaning attributes mentioned at a point (makeup), fairly headstrong but also introverted reader, physical affection, maybe ooc bkg?, brief mention of death/injury, sliver of angst?, lots of fluff and comfort and attentive katsuki. also not rly proofread.
word count: 1.2k :p
A/N: I LOVE HIMMM :((( shifting to be his best friend is going to be so lovely. he's so angel.
how your bond started and grew !
so lets say y'all met at the start of your UA years, were seated next to each other. he was being his pissy lil 15 year old self, sitting on the table, yelling, average cunt attitude. you sat next to him, and eventually told him to stfu. naturally, that both irked and surprised him because nobody had really ever done so. but it somehow drew him in.
over the next few months, a 'tolerance', in his words, formed. but it was in fact friendship, he just didn't want to admit so (emotionally constipated ass)
he'd pick you first in sparring, knowing your strength and agility would work into his (because let's face it, at this point he still would have a complex of not wanting to be around anyone 'weak').
more time goes on, and there's a bit more opening up between the two of you. more on your side, but he tries. you see sides of each other you didnβt know were there, but it only elevates reason for your mutual admiration and respect.
moving into the dorms was a big plus for you both. you had more time to talk, hang out, and train. yes, people suspected smth more was going on, which was fucking annoying. but you both knew there was no romance in things. you just genuinely like each other's company
the actual headcanons lolol:
it took a while to get to it, but physical affection doesnβt go left out in your friendship. this is one of the main reasons people think you're together, but you both see it with the fact that intimacy doesnβt need to be more than just general feelings of closeness. yes, he complains when you use him as a human heater or pillow. but you don't miss how he buries his face into you, at last letting himself relax. he feels safe with you, and probably only you to do so. you might cuddle in your dorms after a long school day, rest on each other on the bus, hold hands when anxious. anything small or specifically by preference.
you are not of exception to is bullshit and remarks, i'd like to preface. but he does make an effort to remember any boundaries or triggers you have. your friendship holds a lot of value to him, and he would not want to cause any dents. and if he does, he waits, gives space, then it's talked out.
taking down villains is one of y'all's favourite hobbies LMAOOO. if you're his friend, you can match his energy and speed. the shit eating grins you both share when admiring your handy work (beat to shit villain) don't go unnoticed by classmates or teachers.
he teaches you to cook better! you maybe already could, but his teaching also comes from a place of care. cooking and eating good keeps you going, in his eyes at least. but you also both go out for food a lot. and don't think he hasn't forcefully built your spice tolerance.
you either bond over fandoms or get each other into them. which is dangerous if you are also a collector. maximalism fears you two. but it also helps with conversation. he was izuku's childhood bsf, TRUST the bitch knows how to ramble.
he is not only loyal, but extremely fucking observant. to the point he can read you cover to cover. whether it's your mood, a habit/stim/tic you have, what makes you laugh, what your favourite song is at the moment- he knows you in a way that signs his devotion to you and the dedication he has to your friendship.
he has a specific level of trust in you, especially after opening himself up to you in terms of who he is behind his crass and crude demeanour, and his thoughts/experiences. he wants you both to feel like you never have to fear expressing yourselves when it's only you two.
y'alls most common hang outs would be: cooking, watching shitty reality shows and mocking the people in them, movie nights, training/sparring, cooking, studying, going on walks/hikes, and concerts.
he just picks you up for some reason? off the ground?? zero explanation?? sometimes just walks around holding u like a bag????
if you ever bicker, it goes on for so. fucking. long. everyone in the class A dorms is TIRED. but you both can't help but crack grins during it, because you actually enjoy seeing how creative you can get.
DEEP !! CONVERSATIONS!!! we've seen him go to bed at 8pm in the series, but i donβt actually think he sleeps then. you've shared many times where either of u couldnβt sleep and texted each other to come over to one of your dorms, and didn't get to sleep til 3 because of your yap session. it could start as just gossiping or ranting, but then it could get to what you think comes after death or some shit π§ or your fears, and why they're fears to begin with. but you both soon drift off, and scramble to get ready the next day LOLL
he very begrudgingly let you do his makeup one day, and from there decided to start wearing eyeliner! he wanted to for a while (emo) but only started when seeing himself with it boosted his confidence :))
at some point, you get matching piercings and/or tattoos. he made fun of you for being nervous but almost shat himself when he got his tongue pierced. as for tattoos, i see you both getting an explosion, and also something related to your quirk as well. small but easy to spot, like a badge of pride.
he is clingy. he ain't ever gonna admit it, but he is in fact a koala at points. but it's for the reason he finally found a person who's company and presence doesnβt require him to be on guard of snap. you have a level of patience with him, and that means more than he can show or say.
speaking of showing and saying, he's often gifting you small trinkets or things related to things you like :) also making you meals when you're down, even if it's that 'shitty unhealthy crap you always want'. seeing you smile is important to him. so is knowing you're okay.
would probably freak if you got injured badly. he finally found someone who gets him, and who's his number 1 when things get hard, and the thought of you being in pain or losing you makes his stomach hurt. but if it's not severe, he'll be there to attend to you if you don't go to Recovery Girl.
you will have either a shared agency or agencies close in location/affiliation when you become pro's. no matter rankings or ratings, you will cheer each other on and offer support whenever you can. not even climbing to the top will separate you from each other. also if it's your choices, you go on a LOT of missions together.
he genuinely loves you sm it's so sweet :( <333 he wonβt say it often, but showing it though quality time, a gift, or acts of service, is a common occurrence. it's a mutual love language to look out for each other and always be there for each other if it's accessible. you're his platonic soulmate, even though he'd rather drink piss than say so. he might not want to spend his life with someone tied down, but you're a placement he's willing to maintain.
cringe culture is dead to me, i wanna start writing MHA fanfics/headcanons again (the hyperfixation has driven me to this point)
ideas i have are (a lot of these are inspired by my DRs too) - erasermic x adopted child reader - venom quirk reader - autistic reader - shigaraki/dabi (individual) x reader - Class A members reacting to bioluminescence quirk user - slice of life scenarios - platonic character x reader - 'fangirl' reader - multiple passions reader - bakugou x aroace reader BUT they end up falling for him and have trouble navigating it (this is a harsh self projection) (edit: or they're both arioace bsfs mistaken for a couple)
y'all can use this as inspo but pls don't directly steal some of these π
Break the Cycle: From Darkness to Light
Hatred breeds hatred. But hope can change everything.
The Power of Stories
Throughout history, stories have shaped our world. Hagiographies, tales of saints and their virtues, have inspired countless individuals to pursue lives of goodness. These stories show us that cycles of hatred, anger, and violence can be broken. They remind us that compassion and cooperation are not just ideals but achievable realities.
Evidence of Change
Research shows that positive actions lead to positive outcomes. Studies in psychology reveal that kindness and empathy can reduce stress and improve mental health. Communities that embrace cooperation over conflict see lower crime rates and higher levels of happiness. The evidence is clear: cycles of hope and joy are not just possible; they are powerful.
Addressing the Critics
Some argue that cynicism is realistic. They say that the world is too harsh for hope to thrive. But history tells a different story. Movements for civil rights, environmental protection, and social justice have all started with a spark of hope. They began with individuals who believed in the power of change. Cynicism may be loud, but hope is stronger.
Take Action Today
You can be part of this change. Start small. Smile at a stranger. Volunteer in your community. Listen to someone with a different perspective. These actions may seem minor, but they create ripples of positivity. Encourage others to join you. Together, we can build a cycle of compassion and cooperation.
Conclusion: A Brighter Future
Breaking toxic cycles is not just a dream; it is a necessity. By choosing hope, joy, and compassion, we can transform our world. Let the stories of the past guide us, and let our actions today pave the way for a brighter tomorrow. The power to change is in our hands. Letβs use it wisely.
Your brain is fucked
You are stuck in a loop, you know? You will probably read this and say "oh, yeah, you're right" and keep scrolling. You've been in this damn loop for months,
Wake up.
Damn your reality.
Spend your day on tumblr.
Get motivated for 5 minutes.
Go back to being depressed.
When the night comes back, sleep instead of the void state
Wake up again.
YOU NEED TO FINISH THIS. FINISH IT. STOP SCROLLING. TONIGHT YOU WILL SWITCH INTO THE REALITY YOU WANT.
βwhat if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?β good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesnβt make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know itβs okay if what you think about yourself changes.
Also picking up new books youβve never heard of before because the premise sounds neat or the cover is pretty or itβs on a themed library display or youβre just trying to read your libraryβs entire catalogue of 90s cyberpunk is just fun. Sometimes itβs not your thing but you get to mull over new ideas or the diversity of people and opinions and thoughts in the world. Sometimes you discover your new favorite book of all time

someone in my dream literally told me βif youβre already in your dr, why are you trying to shift at night? if youβre already there, youβre just proving to yourself that youβre not there by doing these things to get you there, when youβre already there. just go to sleep because youβre already there.β oh!
OK BUT WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THAT MY AWARENESS SHIFTS THEN MY SENSES FOLLOW THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING ABOUT SHIFTING, I JUST SAW A POST SAYING THIS-
LIKE WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHEN I AM INTENDING TO SHIFT OR WTV THAT I SHOULDNT WORRY IF IT STILL FEELS LIKE MY CR

i'm not the best at singing. but i'm gonna sing anyway dude. i'm not the best at painting. but i'm still going to paint. my dancing will never see a stage. but it's perfect for early mornings in my bedroom and late nights with people i love. so what does this mean? it means that people are designed to do. not to be the best. just to do. if you're doing what you enjoy, then you don't have to be the best. you just have to enjoy it. you have to live.
they're here. fucking fuck they're here and there's already misinformation being spread. we need to hide.

welcome, shifttokers! we're glad you could join us, and we're happy to teach you anything you want to know! however, the community over here is a bit (vastly) different than it is on tiktok. so a few rules: 1: if you don't like it, scroll past it. if you notice this person on your dash a few times and you still don't like them, block them. there won't be hard feelings. you just don't like them. it's that simple; we're mature enough to handle it. 2: no one's d/r is 'wrong'. you can script anything at all into any universe at all. if you believe that someone can imagine a whole reality, build a d/r or w/r from scratch, but you don't believe they can script 'unnatural' stuff, like a loved one being alive or a pet living forever, then you need to reevaluate your opinions. 3: we listen and we don't judge. sometimes, you'll see people 'judging' each other, but that tends to be between friends (i.e. me and @shiftingwithmars about anything with ethan or me and @zipper-is-ranting anytime i mention the person i like in this reality). yes, some of us have hooker or sugar baby d/rs. some of us have severely traumatic d/rs. and it's not your place to tell another shifter what they can or can't do in their d/r. it's their d/r. you don't have to go. 4: learn about loa. please, please dedicate a little time to learning about the law of assumption, it's so so helpful when you're shifting.
having said all that, i really do hope that you can enjoy your time on shiftblr! it's a lovely community, and i really do think you'll enjoy yourselves here.
ππ ππππ , ππππ ππππ, πππ πππππ ππππππππ!
So I left shifttok a while ago bc of how depressing it started to feel, but now that TikTok was banned in the US (mind you Iβm Australian) and majority of shifttok is moving here, Iβm getting back into the community :)
My TikTok is sophjun3 if youβre interested in fangirl/aesthetic content, but here is where Iβll focus on shifting! Iβll make an introduction post sooon π©Ά

things a writer hears;
"you like writing? oh, you must be so smart!"
you have no idea what you are talking about, irene. today, I found out the difference between "orchid" and "orchard". do not attempt to assume i have any intellectual prowess. i am a god at faking it. tell me how it feels to wear the chains of loyalty to a pyre built upon deceit.
It's the simple things in life. I want to live.
