mental health

"every person is different.
therefore, our burnouts are different, too

some need fresh air to recover
others need to be indoors

some need others
while others like to be alone

some seek professional options
while others confer within themselves

your burnout is unique
so your solution will be, too

take time to understand yourself and soon you'll find your way

burnout is a real thing, so please take care of your mental health"

due to unfortunate health circumstances, this channel will be paused, as admin is having a hard enough time surviving now, and will keep like that for an unknown amount of time

the health circumstance is physical in nature and is not something concerning, just very very inconvenient. it will pass, and this channel will go back to posting, but it is yet unknown when that will be

as of now, there is only one more scheduled post for this channel: tomorrow's post. after that, the hiatus will begin

be well, and take care of yourself

a link to a good resource amidst the lack of posts

regular posting in this channel will return before this month ends
activism, fascism, minorities

"im pretty ok with white nationalists never knowing a moment of peace.

"but what if that happened to you?"
that would be bad, because im not a white nationalist

"thats a double standard!"
it is, nazis should be treated worse than normal people


if you're fascist and antifascists come for you, you have a choice. you can give it up. you can go renounce what you said. you could just go on with the rest of your life and stop turning up at fascist rallies. antifascists probably arent going to buy you a pint and be your best friend but they'll move on. but if you're a person of color, if you're trans, or a person with a disability or gay or jewish, and fascists come for you, there is nothing you can do to make them happy except stop existing. if you're a political enemy of antifa, you can become a friend. if you're a political enemy of fascism, either they lose or you die"

unscheduled post:

thanks to all who in this two weeks of channel inactivity left messages akin to "take care and get better". there are too many messages to reply individually to all of them, but every single one is deeply appreciated.

thank you c:

may your night be restful and your day plentiful today, drink water, take your meds, and be well

socialization

"when you argue that fascists should be defeated trough debate what you're actually suggesting is that vulnerable minorities should have to endlessly argue for their right to exist and that at no point should the debate be considered over and won"

from the comments of the last post, link to donate to Ukraine's army, now that a rough winter approaches

unscheduled post
since the link in the last post is apparently a conflicting matter for some, a morally easier alternative will be provided: here is a link to an animal shelter in Ukraine that is dealing with refugee cats rescued from the war, which is also in need of help (optimally, providing a home for the cats, but if that is not doable, then economic resources for cat food and similar matters will also be welcome). they got over 60 new cats this week and are currently overloaded.

impostor syndrome

self compassion, mental health, invisible problems, depression, suicide

"it is completely acceptable to stay alive for tiny reasons. because you want to hear your favourite song one more time. because your dog will miss you if you leave. because the moon is just too pretty to never see again. because you have not seen the next season of a really good tv show. because you want to see the christmas lights this year. if you are alive, you are doing enough. if you are surviving, i am proud of you"
