honestly the whole β€œno one gets made fun of for nerdy interests anymore!!!” only applies to allistics without ADHD because autistic people and people with ADHD always have been and continue to be constantly made fun of for how intense their special interests/hyper fixations are and in my experience this has only been intensified when those interests were considered β€œnerdy”

at a certain point gay+trans communities here, online generally, and in real life are gonna have to recognize (and do something abt the fact that) that the way they do accountability w people means that either 1) they disproportionately target, villify, and dispose of trans women for real (or distorted) bad acts or 2) trans women just *are* in fact malevolent evil sex degenerates who need to be kept out of those spaces and possibly prevented from existing – and i’m not holding my breath that the majority of people are gonna land on option 1

actually thinking about the time turner anyone else think it’s weird that, depending on how much she used it, hermione might be a good few months older than she should be?

hermione is actually 30 by the end of prisoner of azkaban, it just wasn’t relevant to harry’s story

whats with the β€œ"you’re not really mentally ill unless you spend at least 3hr/day publically decrying yourself for the evil evil things you think aboutβ€β€œ crap like, my guy, calm the fuck down

@dromaeocore said: The best way to DEAL with intrusive thoughts like that IS to just… let them roll over you, try not to get yourself into a spiral of self-hate and self-destruction about it. ALL that does is reinforce them. /Not Giving The Thoughts Power/ is like, #1 treatment for Pure-O OCD, mine’s gotten SO much better as I’ve learned to do that. why the fuck do people encourage doing the literal exact opposite??

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy:Β β€œi can’t stop thinking about doing bad things” andΒ β€œi’m not a bad person” are compatible concepts and the best way to deal with those thoughts is to accept that you have them and then move on.

tunglr dot hell:Β you’re not mentally ill unless you hate yourself for your bad thoughts, and if you disagree then you’re anti-recovery

Seen this mindset deployed a lot in a sort of implicit-unquestioned-basis way, and have some followers who could benefit from hearing this.

Your bad thoughts aren’t you. Some of us think and imagine some fucked up shit that would be really disturbing and heinous if we did them in real life. Some of us even reflexively feel positive emotions about it sometimes.

If you already decided those things are wrong and if you’re confident you’re not going to act on them, then it literally just makes things worse if you emotionally hurt yourself over the fact that you still experience those things.
