#ifirstknewIwasLGBTQ at like... 8-10, when it turned out that Shiek was Zelda all along... And then when I couldn't place why I loved Shiek/Zelda so much (turns out the idea of sliding between genders was, you know, a big thing!)
I didn't have the word for nonbinary back then, but I always, ALWAYS knew I wasn't happy being a girl. There was always a huge fascination with people like Mana, for example, who played fluidly with gender presentation
I knew I wanted more than I had. I knew I resented some of my features and I wanted change. There's a reason I was FASCINATED with female hyenas as much as I was.
And there was always a deep interest in gynandromorphs and hermaphroditic animals... And it turns out hoping to discover you were actually intersex was uhhh not a Very Cis Thing!

Triggers are anything that causes a reaction/induces a state. That's it. That's literally all it means.
A trigger can be anything that;
Sets off an allergic reaction
Starts a migraine
Induces panic, depression, or rage
Sets off a disordered state of being
A trigger can be something that causes a seizure, too.
It isn't always "scared/traumatized of/by x/y/z!" If someone asks for something to be tagged, it is not an invitation to mock them! It is DEFINITELY not an invitation to coyly shove that thing in their face! It's not funny!
You are fucking around with someone's health, either physical, mental, or emotional. It's not a joke.
my brain: hey you DEFINITELY shouldn't focus on the fact that you should be in Philadelphia having breakfast with one of your best friends getting ready for a once in a lifetime concert. Don't focus on it. Don't even think about how you should be screaming your lungs out tonight.
Just don't think about all that! Don't think about the fact that you just signed a lease for another year at a place you don't want to stay for even another day, either. Don't think about how earlier this year you wrote in to take this week off and thought "I probably won't even
still BE here, what's the point asking off?" with a grin. just don't think about all that. nope, no point thinking about it! none at all. don't focus about all that. dont think about how you should've been in a better place!
prob my favorite online game interaction was when I was playing L4D2 with a friend and 2 random people. we were doing the Hard Rain campaign and my friend and I convinced the other people to walk to the safehouse instead of run bc it's a safety hazard
