Random Thought I've Been Having Since Yesterday-- It's Wild How Much People Say "but" When They Really

Random thought I've been having since yesterday-- it's wild how much people say "but" when they really mean "and." Like, they know two things are not mutually exclusive, but they use "but" anyway. In a lot of cases I think both work and it's vibe based, so it's usually in emotionally charged or positive conversations that I really notice. "And" feels a lot more open and welcoming, but it still feels wrong even when neither phrase at all contradicts the other.

Going through anti-endo tags to block sysmeds and my gods the amount of "anti fakeclaiming" posts from people that literally fakeclaim other systems daily is staggering, it's gotta take conscious effort to be that dense

Anyway all systems are valid, gatekeeping helps literally no one and this is a very interesting first day back on tumblr. Not sure if anyone's gonna sign off yet.

On the struggles of being a system...

I saw a post which talked about how seeing other systems be happy and stuff felt like a mockery to them, or saying that being a system isn't inherently a bad thing is a mockery. I have some particular feelings about this. I don't like it.

Having a disorder is debilitating, there's a lot of struggle. Some days it's easier and I enjoy talking with my alters and sharing experiences with other systems, other times the repressed emotions and urges suddenly coming to attack me... Not remembering why things feel so wrong or some days I feel more me than before, or don't even feel like the concept of me is real.

Yet, it's not something I hate. Even if i were a singlet, I think I'd still struggle one way or another, it's inevitable in this world we live in. Not being a system wouldn't automatically fix all my problems. I think I'd have different problems that are just as much of a hassle as being a system.

Sure, it would be nice to not struggle with the trauma that caused this. It would be nice to simply not have wounds that are festering but are hidden, and you aren't ready to fix them.

But others enjoying the other stuff that came with the trauma being a mockery? Making the most of what they have, being a mockery? You're simply projecting your insecurities onto those who seem to be in a "better state" than you. It is not a bad thing for people to happy despite it all. They are not mocking you or anyone for that matter.

Or even someone experiencing something you have but without the struggles that come along with it... It isn't a mockery. I'd like to say it demonstrates that it isn't inherently suffering.

Please don't say that the joy of others are mockeries of your pain. I think it hurts everyone, including you.

I support 'problematic' alters.

That;

Cause problems constantly

Get people angry

Get banned and blacklisted in servers

Are hated by their system members

Don't regret any of it

Are not allowed to front due to all the above and more

You are good enough, you are allowed to be upset and angry. You can be yourself. You are not less for being 'problematic'.

Overriding anon's opinion by saying GET THAT BAG PUKI

God just open an ebay account or something, I didn't follow you to be advertised to

A. I never requested you to follow me, so I don't OWE you any fucking funny post quota. You do not own me, you little content-gobbling imp.

2. Everything I do is free, so if I wanna try selling something, you are free to not feel as if you're owed more content from me.

3

I need money, and we're all hobbyists, I wanna trade with other hobbyists. Ebay is informal and slow, and I have a big audience here that I can offer good mutual deals on - and have done just that many times in the past.

D. Once these lenses sell u don't need to worry about puki market any time soon.

If you’re struggling to stay alive, please don’t feel pressured to keep up with the news or current events.

You’re allowed to prioritize your own health and safety. You’re allowed to step back from social media or news sources in order to keep yourself from spiraling. You’re allowed to avoid certain topics which may trigger you or make you feel worse.

You’re not wrong or bad for doing this. You’re a person, and you’re allowed to do whatever it takes to keep yourself safe. Please don’t let others judge you for your decision to look after your own mental health. We promise, you’re doing nothing wrong by avoiding the news while you’re suffering.

Its entirely okay to be happy with being a system and we will never understand why that's so controversial

Why would we hate eachother when we know each of us is the reason we're still alive? We saved eachother! Ofcourse we're going to be pretty proud of that!
