everyone give thanks to the middle eastern and north african people of over ten thousand years ago for domesticating the african wildcat and providing the entire world with some of the best pets ever 🙏🙏🙏 it was probably the best idea any human has ever had.
you can honestly tell that this is the ancestor of all domestic cats. look at it. just a lil tabby cat. with long long legs.
One thing that particularly really pisses me off about north american colonialism is people's adamant refusal to either recognize or admit that indigenous genocide is still a very real and active thing going on. And I know this stems from the fact that people only view genocide as just mass killings of people (which is also still happening its just more covert than you think) but its also a separation, assimilation, and destruction of a peoples/culture.
in the US alone we make up less than like 2% of the entire fucking population, its basically impossible to be native unless you're mixed or inbred as fuck (which is part of why blood quantums are stupid), and despite this we still make up the majority of sexual violence and abduction victims. We are STILL dying, we are STILL being murdered and erased and silenced and so many other fucking things but trust me guys everything's fine now because some shitty corporate did a recognition of the land post before violating government contracts and building another oil line through indigenous lands.
And on that note a lot of you need to learn what cultural appropriation actually is and the damage it does beyond just "white people claiming ethnic thing".

zoning out or imagining things is not dissociation. dissociation is a severe trauma response. fucking stop with this. you were not traumatized by your math homework and dissociating at your desk, you were uninterested and zoned out.
As someone with DID….dissociation is not a severe trauma response. lol. Dissociation is something that people do day to day and it is normal to an extent. That’s why there’s dissociation, and then a dissociative disorder. The most common form of dissociation is when you drive and the next thing you know you’ve missed your exit without realizing.
That’s normal. It’s not normal if the dissociation impedes on your daily life and makes things harder for you to do. That’s kinda the difference between dissociation normally and dissociation abnormally…
I get feeling upset when people misuse diagnostic words and therapy speak, believe me I am so tired of the “letting my intrusive thoughts win! 🤪” crowd…but we should also stop trying to paint words that describe normal stuff like this as something only severely disordered people can use.
Again, dissociation is a normal thing your brain does sometimes. It only becomes an issue if it greatly impedes on your daily life. “Zoning out” is a form of dissociation for fucks sake.
cant wait to play as them!!!

who cares if you don't fully "get" the weird postmodernist novel on your first read, or if the experimental arthouse film is opaque to you on your first viewing? you are not being graded. you are not being scored. there is value in the attempt. every time i've read House of Leaves or watched Blue Velvet, I've gotten something new from it. the idea that you might not "get" something and therefore shouldn't bother with it is so silly to me
