oh you know a song is bad when hearing it breaks you out of whatever neurodivergent bear trap has been immobilizing you since you put your headphones in and sends you scrambling to turn it off before it can start scraping its claws against the inside of your brain
Everyone @ youtube right now
Totally not gonna accidentally walk directly into their encampment, what, no, I’d never /s

i feel like tumblr would expose super heroes secret identities real fast with all its crazy ass jokes
like if you are a responsible student
reblog if you’re currently avoiding schoolwork
(sorry if this has already been done, I haven't seen it)
listen to me. thoughts do not have moral weight. a thought will never hurt anyone. the actions you take because of a thought can hurt yourself or other people, but the thought itself is powerless and there is no such thing as thought crime.
"but i have thoughts about being violent towards people! towards children! surely that makes me dangerous!" are you being violent? for real? with your actions? if not, then you are not actually hurting anyone
"but i have thoughts that are offensive and hurtful! they're bigoted, or they're horribly rude, or they're invalidating to others! i'm a horrible person." and what are you doing with those thoughts, exactly? are you taking bigoted actions, or saying those rude things, or taking steps to actually invalidate people? no? well then. no one is getting hurt. and in the meantime, if it really bothers you, doing things like helping unlearn your biases (both against minorities and just, like, against furries and theatre kids and shit) might help some of those thoughts go away, but sometimes you just get shitty thoughts.
"but i have horrific thoughts about sex!" are you hurting people. are you forcing people to do things they don't consent to. or are you just playing the upsetting possibility in your mind over and over again, and acting like that's even remotely the same thing?
thought. crime. is. not. real. OCD. is. hell. (and anything else that may cause intrusive thoughts.) but it does not define you. your thoughts will always, always come secondary to your actions. you're gonna be fine.
I hate this fucking thing so much but it's been years and I can never bring myself to get rid of it.
