it’s so weird that i never heard anybody talk about this, but… one of the things you will notice when you start recovering is that your old coping mechanisms will stop working. they might even start hurting. which is absolutely scary, and you might even find yourself being nostalgic for worse times when you could still give into those impulses and feel the pain ease off for a while. but they stop working because you are healing. take a deep breath. see how far you’ve come. you’ll go much further yet. be proud of yourself.

Confirmed.

Eldest sisters r the most oppressed

hey yall dumb fucks reblogging this and yapping about how, ur life is actually super hard as a younger sibling…

the ‘eldest sisters are oppressed’ thing is based on the fact that the oldest girls in many families are, a lot of the time, drafted into watching her younger siblings to the point that shes more of a young third parent than a kid anymore. shes expected to be incredibly responsible while her younger siblings get to make mistakes. she get to do more housework than her father because apparently men shouldn’t have to watch laundry.

op is obviously referring to the ways in which older sisters ( nope not brothers) are forced into maternal roles by both society and their parents for a number of reasons, not limited to society’s insistence that they must learn to become mothers early. theres also the fact that many families both need and cant afford childcare. this idea that an oldest sister is free childcare is bullshit.

There’s a book called “The Eldest Daughter Effect” that goes into detail about this. And it applies to the oldest daughter so even if the oldest child is a boy and the second child is a daughter, she is the one who ends up getting all that extra pressure and responsibilities for younger siblings.

First Person Narritive in Fanfiction.

Good reason to not read: because it makes me feel as if I am that character in the story and that isn’t the reading experience Im looking for.

Bad reason not to read: assuming that a first person narrative is bad writing or silly

Good reaction when coming across one: Minding my damn business if i dont like it because the story was free for me and other to enjoy. So if i dont like it I can quietly fuck off.

Bad reaction: leaving disappointed or rude comments about it being first person instead of third.

While a first person narrative isn’t the type of reading experience I like in fanfiction that doesn’t make it bad writing. The people who write these stories put just as much work and feeling into it as other authors so if you cant appreciate that they do this for free then you can leave.

We support our fellow authors in this house with compliments and PROPER criticism, and only if they ask.

people are allowed to leave you.
people are allowed to break up with you.
people are allowed to love you but not want to be with you.
people are allowed to not want to talk to you.
people are allowed to put their happiness before yours and do what makes them happy even if it does not include you.
people are allowed to move on from you.
people are allowed to fall in love with someone else.
people are allowed to not want you in their life.
people are allowed to do whatever they want to better themselves and become the version of themselves they are trying so hard to love.
don’t be bitter towards someone who is only trying to be happy.

I feel like this POV does not get enough voice.
