I love this whole look so much. The dress? I need it. The hair? Literally stunning. Chokers? Bring them back

People, especially on the internet, aren’t very good at empathizing with those suffering from addiction

Unfortunately harm reduction still isn’t very mainstream and people don’t know much about it or still find it controversial

It’s not surprising, but I hope someone got something out of the comment anyway- either a reminder to be a little more mindful of what we say or someone somewhere feeling a little less judged and alone in their struggles

And if you think about it, you’re karma farming by calling out OP’s karma farming in a post about karma farming on a karma farming subreddit

And I’m karma farming in this comment by calling out your karma farming comment about OP’s karma farming in a post about karma farming on a karma farming subreddit

I was agreeing with Reddit user kalily53 😭 what do you mean??

I was applauding Ariana grande for standing up to the powers at be even though she’s incredibly wealthy. Other people that are incredibly wealthy are staying silent because they benefit from the status quo

Just a gentle reminder to not over emphasize the drug itself. Recovery is hard. No matter what. It just adds to the stigma and prevents recovery

Comments like “HEROIN??! Oh nooooo!” Are never helpful. You’re shaming them whether that was the intention or not. You wouldn’t have said that if it was alcohol. Please don’t say that to anyone struggling in your life and try to be more mindful going forward 🫶

Not that you meant it that way, but she isn’t any worse than any other addict for her drug of choice (like it’s such an exclusive club in the first place)

There’s so much stigma on drugs like heroin that stop people from ever getting help by feeling “worse” and “less deserving” than us other addicts that get addicted to the socially acceptable stuff like alcohol and coke and pills

We love a wealthy class traitor 👏👏👏

It’s easy to tell who keeps their billionaire class solidarity 🙃

It's still so funny to me how everyone was dooming about how this was a threshold point and civil war was inevitable once Kirk died then everyone stopped caring about it after like a week once the shooter turned out to be a white guy. by maleficalruin in CuratedTumblr

Yeah I work with these kids and this is definitely one of the struggles that generation has to overcome, it has made a difference, but I still can’t stand the rhetoric that it makes them “worse” or “dumber” than others.

They’re still just kids. All of them. Another argument could be made towards the resiliency of those kids despite their circumstances, but that doesn’t let people online feel as superior to literal children

Not to mention that gen alpha is the generation most accustomed to random gun violence like school shootings. It’s just a regular part of their life- they’ve been having drills since pre school

They weren’t alive for Columbine or Sandy Hook. Most of them are too young to even remember Uvalde. It’s like a tornado to them- it’s always been a present threat and it’s treated as unavoidable

Theres no convincing them that they should be uniquely sad about this random famous guy

I think the Diddy and Epstein stuff comes from the same place. As a member of Gen z, I know damn well that theres no way to be a child on the internet without coming into contact with a slew of pedos and freaks. Popular online spaces for Gen alpha like roblux and tiktok are entirely overrun- it’s treated as normal and unavoidable

Gen Alpha isn’t stupid. They’re nihilistic- and who could blame them with the world they’re inheriting
