on the use of mental illness for horror
so for THE longest time, people have had a fascination with mental illness! because its not completely understood, it can be scary. the bad part of this is people completely misunderstanding what an illness involves and portraying the illness as something scary or violent
specifically a target of this is psychosis and psychotic disorders
ive been diagnosed with schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder and as a result of dealing with these illnesses, ive dealt with major issues throughout my life. ive been taken advantage of, abused, ignored, and mocked for my illnesses. the last thing i am is a prop made for something to be more edgy or inter
I finally realized that my traumatic past has been catching up to me. My unresolved fears and pain of abandonment as a child by my parents has seeped into my adult life. It triggers extreme reactions in me that drives people close to me away.
I like to pretend to be strong. That whatever comes at me in life, I'll just pull myself up again and get over it. I'd like to believe that what doesn't kill me makes me stronger. I'd like to pretend that if I somehow draw out pain, and put it on canvas, that the pain will be contained on canvas, and not deep inside me. But that's not true.

Happy Holidays everyone! ~supertighthugplz (https://www.deviantart.com/supertighthugplz)
I took my dog to see Santa.
It looks like he's happy but they Photoshopped my arm out because he was fighting Santa and I had to hold him lol
Look deep into Santa's eyes and see how frazzled he is with my little angel...
So..
I moved here from Japan awhile ago now. Like, 4 years now. And in Japan I didn't have Facebook. I had a social media thing called Mixi instead. But when I got here, everyone asked; "Whats yer Facebook??
GIMME YER FACEBOOK!!11".
So I made one ( a private one that I try to keep small). Ignored it for awhile. But of course, I ended up meeting some great friends, and it certainly is convenient to organize events and what not with this.
But then I was invited to things. Dinner parties, etc etc., and at these events you meet friends of friends.. and they ask;
" Whats yer Facebook? Gimme yer FACEBOOK!!111 "
To be polite, I did. I am st
Wanna kill yourself? Imagine this.
You come home from school one day. You've had yet another horrible day. You're just ready to give up. So you go to your room, close the door, and take out that suicide note you've written and rewritten over and over and over You take out those razor blades, and cut for the very last time. You grab that bottle of pills and take them all. Laying down, holding the letter to your chest, you close your eyes for the very last time.
A few hours later, your little brother knocks on your door to come tell you dinners ready. You don't answer, so he walks in. All he sees is you laying on your bed, so he thinks you're
Hiya
So I was linked ( yet Again), to a piece of artwork where someone had used one of my pieces, cut the character off the background, and slapped it onto another background ( that they also didn't draw), and uploaded it as their own.
Fun fact: There are people out there, that take art off google, or Pixiv, Or DA, etc etc- cut out the characters, and call them "Renders".

No mentioned of the original artists of course ( lol hell no).
Then they always write "You may not use this work without my permission" under it...
And these things are everywhere on DA now that they no longer accept third party reports.

'I never wanted children' says Scary Mommy
https://www.scarymommy.com/articles/i-never-wanted-children?section=confessions&u=0c3Npyh2G8
Folks, we have seen this confession many many times and I've even created a game out of how many times I've seen this.
But now, now we have a mom who's writing an article about how she never wanted children and she doesn't finish with "but I love my kids." I'm gonna go through it just to show you.
I'm a mom who never wanted the job.
Did you know there are others like us? There are fellow moms in the world who are wiping noses and crunching Cheerios with their bare feet who never envisioned their life turning out this way. We are the moms who strug
I am refusing to use the rebranded name because, I'm annoyed about the rebrand. I'm annoyed about your direction, your lack of focus in key areas and your lack of communication. I said I'd never be a bitter former staff member, but it seems that I am.
Last year you spent a lot of money on a rebrand, this year you've cut 50% of your work force, entire departments have been decimated and peoples lives have been thrown upside down without notice. But you never really communicated to anyone why. You still don't, you're not telling the community what's happening and that's only going to hurt you. People will see that helpdesk tickets take longer
