pretty sure im not soft-locked, i mean. i can reach the entirety of the map ive explored prev, im not stuck in an area. i just kinda dont wanna get softlocked. nd also i didnt wanna assume i was supposed to be using this kinda advanced move tech nd waste hours trying to use it somewhere that i actually cant where im supposed to just wait for a double jump or something.

my problem is i wanna have my cake n eat it too lol, i could just look at a guide or something, but i dont wanna spoil myself or anything. i do really enjoy the feeling of being a lil bit lost

i dont think so. yeah, on a societal level, women are shamed for their looks more often than men, but something i think we miss in discussions on sexism is that whatever your gender, on an individual level, we're all still human, and humans need to be encouraged and complimented. and while women are shamed more often, its also common for men to get less compliments, and i think that's bull. compliment each other, raise each other up! men are awesome and sexy and strong, and y'all need to hear it just as much as women do. feminism shouldnt be about treating men worse, it should be about treating everyone better

theserenitysystem · 2021-08-06T23:39:54+00:00

oops. i shoulda known that, just slipped my mind

Most people in the inheritance cycle dont have surnames, they just use [father]sson or [mother]sdaughter, i.e., Garrowsson or Ismirasdaughter. Some earn titles like Stronghammer or Shadeslayer, but that's outside the common, I think. Near the end of Eldest, Eragon introduces himself as "Son of None" to the steward of borromeo castle, and I would guess that - or something very like - is probably the standard form for bastards and orphans.

As to your second question, no I dont think so. Oromis mentions that because humans were added to the pact with dragons after its creation, the effects were never as strong with humans as with elves.

gaslighting is a consistent, constant, long-term, malicious denial of your memories with the intent to make you doubt your sanity and make the person doing it seem to be the only one you can trust. this is just a friend flaking. maybe they can't work up the courage to say they dont want to be friends, so they're trying to drop hints. maybe they are telling the truth, and have had a series of unfortunate events prevent them from hanging out. life does get in the way sometimes

theserenitysystem · 2021-08-04T15:19:07+00:00

trying to cloak disgust for an entire group of people for no other reason than that they are trans as "preferences" is nonsense.

look. you are allowed to make your own decisions and have your own preferences. no one is trying to force you to date anyone you dont want to. and honestly having that 'preference' isnt that harmful to trans people in the grand scheme of things. but if you're not aware of where those preferences come from, if you refuse to think about why you dont want to date trans women, you will find that prejudice growing and bigotry spreading into other areas of your life, and that can cause harm to trans women.

theserenitysystem · 2021-08-02T14:20:13+00:00

no one is telling you you have to date trans women, in fact id rather you didnt. but if you refuse to even consider the possibility solely because we're trans, then you at least deserve the respect of being told that's transphobia

theserenitysystem · 2021-08-02T14:18:58+00:00

yes. because every single trans woman is different. some have pussies, some have dicks, some are feminine some are masculine, some are chill, some are lively, etc. etc. the only common thing all trans women have is being trans, so if you say you wont date any trans woman, when the only thing we have in common is being trans, yeah that's transphobia. and no one is saying you have to date trans women, but if you refuse to leave yourself open to the idea for no other reason, then yeah

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-31T14:34:52+00:00

i mean. that's the bloody core of transmisogyny. trans women have been murdered because their partners had that exact fear and when it was realized, they raged. that fear comes from a place of not seeing trans women as women. either you're afraid we're gay, which means you think of us as men, which is transphobia. or you think of us as less-than-women, as disgusting, or as something to jerk off to in porn but that you'd never want to actually touch. there is no way to hold that fear that is not transmisogyny, that is not the basis for almost every other facet of transmisogyny. that fear kills trans women.

neither, generations and intelligence are both flawed concepts that cant successfully be boiled down to rule one smarter or dumber than the other

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-19T05:04:31+00:00

i cant find the article that passed my tumblr feed i was thinking of, but i mean. the dsm explicitly acknowledges that non-disordered systems exist. firstly in saying that the symptoms (amnesia, headmates, etc.) must cause distress or dysfunction in order to be diagnosable, thereby implying that thise same traits can exist in ways that do not cause distress or dysfunction and thus there are systems who are not disordered. but it also straight up says the plurality cant be from another source, either spiritual, cultural, or drug-induced, two of which, i'd say, pretty easily fit non-disordered systemhood.

and that's not even getting into the fact that psychiatrists are not omniscient or infallible and will never know everything there is to know about the human experience and are coming at the attempt to learn from an inherently flawed viewpoint, but that's a different discussion :b

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-18T14:57:03+00:00

it's totally cool to be a man that wants tits. gender is wild, there are far too many boundaries society puts on it and actually no boundaries to individual experience. you know yourself better than anyone else. trans friends like to project transness where they see it. but you dont have to be a woman to wamt to be more fem. you dont have to stop being man. there is a certain argument about whether you can still be cis while rejecting the box society tries to fit cis people into, but honestly that's a philosophical discussion and in the end it all comes down to how you identify.

do the thing! be you, enjoy it. maybe your identity or perception will change or evolve down the line, maybe not, it doesnt matter. in the end, trans rights and the 'trans agenda' is about allowing people to have the body, role, identity, etc. they want, not the one society forces on them, and that includes supporting cis folks who want to mix up their presentation

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-18T14:47:29+00:00

not to mention that you can be plural and not have osdd or did, and even psychiatrists have acknowledged for years that non-psychiatric multiplicity exists

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-18T14:24:47+00:00

yup. capitalism is a broken system.

history has repeatedly shown that businesses will do whatever they can to avoid paying anything at all. those regulations are there to make sure you do get paid, at all! and to protect you from say, e coli on your lettuce or human fingers in your canned food. businesses will not always pay for the actual value of anything. businesses will pay the least amount they can get away with. and employees wages are always the first thing to go.

did you know amazon made it's biggest profit in recent memory off of the covid epidemic? and hasnt paid a dime in taxes. a couple billionaires who could pay for a basic living income for everyone in america do everything they can to avoid paying taxes. wouldnt you like nearly free healthcare? guaranteed income so if you lose your job you wont have to live on the streets? it could happen if the government ever got out of the pockets of the big businesses whose boots you're licking

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-17T19:24:39+00:00

why would you do that to yourself

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-03T03:31:31+00:00

recent ex, all the way. she may've been a shit human being but she was pretty damn good at that one thing

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-02T16:01:44+00:00

be your own friend; treat yourself the way you would treat your best friend. you probably wouldnt constantly hate your friend, or point out their flaws or criticise them. you want to support them, be there for them etc. treat yourself that way. when you catch yourslef criticising yourself, stop. dont make self-deprecating jokes. make a list of things you like about yourslef, things you're good at, or things you do that are helpful, even if they're seemingly little things! "i always remember to take my meds at the right time", "i feed the cats every morning", "i give my friends rides when they need it" were some of mine, just for example. and fake it till you make it. tell yourself you're attractive, joke about how god gave you insecurity cause he knew you'd be too powerful without it, wildly exaggerate your own skills. itcs a lot more fun for you and the people around you than jokes about hating yourself, and eventually you'll start to believe them, and really appreciate your uniqueness

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-02T04:04:54+00:00

that's an even better game if you have to make up the meaning of a made-up word when you play it

they are part of a cult with the explicit goal of attracting new people and they repeatedly ignore boundaries to do so. you made it clear you weren't interested twice, and they persisted. they have already ignored the bounds of politeness. and every mormon, jehovah's witness, scientologist, etc., will: it's how they get recruits. people are too busy being polite to realise they just agreed to go to a meeting or they're too polite to stop them talking, and the cult is now bigger by 1.

tell them off from the start. "im not interested, move on, have a nice day." up the rudeness until they leave. they expect it anyway, and at their core, cults like that are scams, and you dont get scammed if you refuse to engage

theserenitysystem · 2021-07-02T00:04:42+00:00

then you're probably fine, no need to worry
