today my anthro professor said something kind of really beautiful:
“you all have a little bit of ‘I want to save the world’ in you, that’s why you’re here, in college. I want you to know that it’s okay if you only save one person, and it’s okay if that person is you”

You don’t have to be more attractive. You don’t have to be attractive at all. You don’t have to attract anyone or anything. You are not a magnet, damn it. You can make anyone love you (trust me) but you don’t need to make anyone love you. You should be you for you and only you. And yes I am talking about you and you and you.
NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT A GOD DAMN RELATIONSHIP AND LOSING WEIGHT AND BEING BEAUTIFUL FOR GODS SAKE GO OUTSIDE AND ROB A STORE AND FEEL ALIVE AS YOU RUN AWAY FROM SECURITY

- general consensus among mental health professionals about otherkin identities: whether they're present as a spiritual or religious belief, a way of coping or grounding oneself when suffering from mental illness or trauma, or just a different way of elaborating on one's feelings for the sake of fun, kin identities are in no way detrimental to the mental health of anybody and the people i'm trying to help have much bigger issues then identifying strongly or spiritually with animals or fictional characters and to linger on the non-issue of it would be a waste of everyone's time and energy
- anti-kin: OMG OTHERKIN ARE SOOOO CRAZY JESUS CHRIST GET MENTAL HEALTH PLEASE YOU ARE LITERALLY DAMAGING YOURSELF YOU DELUSIONAL ~SPESHUL SNOWLFAKES~
people who randomly compliment you on something you are insecure about are the nicest kind of people
