I want young girls to know that sexualizing themselves for adult approval is destructive. I want young boys to know that they deserve better than grown ass women getting away with leering at and touching them. I want youth of the next generation to not be sexually broken the way I was due to hyper sexuality in our perverted culture. I just want kids to be kids and to have adults get properly dragged for abusing their responsibilities to kids to satisfy their lust.

Isn’t it weird how you can actually feel the pain in your chest and stomach when something really hurts your feelings

This is actually because it activates your vagus nerve! Basically your body goes “we are so upset! We must be injured! Where???? On the inside guts! Those are confusing and hard to differentiate!!! Confusing guts are hurt!”

Great! How do I uninstall it?

“great! how do i uninstall it?” carries the same vibe as “thanks! i hate it” but more ACTIONABLE bc we gettin our shit together in 2k18

I wish more people got this because some ‘low-empathy’ people are the most compassionate and sympathetic in the universe, and I hate it when that’s taken to mean ‘unfeeling and probably hostile’ when nothing could be further from the truth

Or, as my dad put it,

Sympathy: I know how you feel
Empathy: I feel how you feel
Compassion: is there anything I can do to help?

Sympathy: that sucks bro
empathy: I feel that
compassion: want me to send you some puppy and kitten pictures to make you feel better?
