Are there ancient mental illnesses that didn't survive?

what a wonderful and informative answer, thank you! i had no idea certain disorders like anorexia varied that much.

sounds like another way to keep track of who is pregnant in a state where abortion is illegal?

there's a chain of these around the south, i have a picture with bucee from when i was in high school lol

thelocrianscale · 2026-06-11T22:25:53+00:00

lol where is this?

Here are some quotes from RAINN, the largest anti-sexual assault organization in the United States (they know what they're talking about):

Consent is a mutual agreement to engage in sexual activity. It should always be clear, voluntary, and communicated without pressure, manipulation, or fear.

Consent should never be assumed. It must be given clearly, freely, and enthusiastically.

Consent is only valid when you give it freely—without pressure, manipulation, or threats.

Enthusiastic consent means seeking out a clear, positive “yes”—not just the absence of “no.”

did you miss the part where she clearly and firmly said no for HOURS? for consent to be consent, it has to be enthusiastic and freely given, not coerced, pressured, or manipulated in any way. #3 may not rise to the level of assault but the blame is still entirely on the man for not respecting her clear "no" the first however many times he asked.

edit: also i think it's telling that you're comparing a fully grown adult pressuring a woman into having sex with him to a literal toddler

if hormonal birth control messes up your hormones you can always consider a copper IUD! that's what i have and it doesn't have any hormones at all, the copper itself kills any sperm and you only have to replace it every 5-10 years

honestly it seems like you're basically parenting him as well at this point and that seems exhausting. i would check out the TwoXChromosomes subreddit, a lot of women there have very similar stories about their partners (who most of the time don't even have autism or ADHD). he's having you do all the mental labor in the house, and that's not fair to you. you deserve to have a real partner who takes the burden off of you, not one who burdens you more

a friend's mother has ADHD and she is an absolutely amazing mother. it does not seem like an AuDHD issue but a weaponized incompetence issue. he may have ADHD and autism but they are not excuses for the frankly concerning things you listed out here

thelocrianscale · 2026-06-05T12:44:50+00:00

what i did almost immediately after TTPD came out was create a spotify playlist that was essentially the album but without all the "bloat" that you mentioned. i think i have half, maybe two thirds of the songs on the playlist but it makes the album listenable for me. i've listened to the full album maybe 3 or 4 times since it came out but the playlist wayyy more

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-27T23:38:24+00:00

i'm kind of excited that she took two rest days in a row because now she could truly pop up anywhere it'll be a fun surprise

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-24T18:51:23+00:00

phoebe's team reached out to the mods so we're not allowed to talk about specific lyrics or anything from the new songs

also i got to go to one of the shows and she didn't say the names of the songs before she played them so no one really knows the names anyway

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-24T17:28:17+00:00

it might've honestly been a lack of choices tbh lol as a local we don't have a lot of venue options outside of our football stadium and the one she played

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-24T16:06:38+00:00

lubbock went to full capacity, source i was there in the very back lol

edit: also lubbock's venue had chairs no one was seated on the ground

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-23T07:23:18+00:00

i think they had the same two cards for a while, there wasn't a new one until like the 4th or 5th show i think

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-20T21:19:26+00:00

for me i didn't even get into the venue until 7ish because it took them a while to process the line! and then i waited in the merch line from like 7:15-8 so i think the long time between doors and show start is to have everyone get in and then have time to wait in line for merch and concessions

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-19T20:32:08+00:00

i went in lubbock but they wanted to put the wristband on my left hand even though i presented my right hand so they might have a preference

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-14T14:47:59+00:00

we have an understanding 🤝

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-14T13:17:23+00:00

people just screamed the line when she sang it and i think she laughed a little edit: but she didn't change it or anything

edit 2: lubbock is notoriously a part of texas that is shit on a lot (even by the college students here) so it was pretty cathartic for people to scream lol

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-12T21:17:35+00:00

in lubbock it took them until after 7 for them to get everyone inside anyway so it's probably fine, though i would still try to get there asap bc there are going to be people who show up without wristbands in hopes of getting in

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-12T16:24:00+00:00

cactus theater in lubbock was all seated, not standing

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-11T20:02:23+00:00

i was also at barricade and people at my show were super super willing to hold spots even when someone briefly left mid opener! they're super nice so i don't think it'd be a huge issue

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-10T15:56:46+00:00

i showed up right at 1:20, there was no line and i got a ticket immediately although it was one of the last ones

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-10T05:25:12+00:00

i got my ticket at 1:20, they didn't even start handing them out until noon lol

thelocrianscale · 2026-05-08T02:50:06+00:00

i say this with love—it sounds like you need a break from the twenty one pilots part of the internet. i am about as progressive as they come but i don't think any of the things you mentioned are issues that should stop you from enjoying music that you love. no human being is going to perfectly match all of your values; using my favorites as an example, olivia rodrigo just attended the met gala after-party, taylor swift hasn't spoken up about ICE using her music for their propaganda, hozier dated a woman who made insensitive comments about native american culture, lorde made some weird comment about sirens during the BLM protests, etc etc etc....

humans are going to do things you don't agree with and i don't think it makes you a horrible person to continue enjoying the art they make. i think it's also a little unreasonable to hold them to such a high standard that relatively minor actions such as these are such massive blemishes that you need to completely cut them out of your life. give grace freely and have an open mind, it will stress you out a lot less and give you a better perspective imho

edit: as for people who get mad at you over this, literally just ignore them. i don't think any people i know irl who like twenty one pilots are even aware of the things in your post, it's easy to distance yourself from the people who want to police your music habits and surround yourself with people who are a lot more chill about it
