knowing so much about someone's personal life that you feel some sort of bond with them is really bizarre and toxic in general tbh

more people need to develop a strong set of personal values rather than a strong devotion to their politics. if you have security in your morals and basic values then your political perspective naturally grows from that later.
it’s not possible to think critically and be open minded if you use politicians, influencers and manifestos as your sole moral compass. i used to think people were just ignoring their morals and selling their souls for social media likes or that they had been fooled by misinformation until i realized that so, so many people’s identities are not based on personal core beliefs and their own innate sense of right vs wrong but rather based on having undying allegiance to a political party. terrifying to see how many people think they agree with every tenet of an ideology when that just… isn’t realistic. politics change, culture shifts, religions and ideals move like riptides but basic inner values hold steady regardless of the arena.
i’m fucking horrified that it’s become more common to parrot political pundits and to believe in whatever has the most likes this week than to have a moral compass and set of beliefs you use to analyze your choices and the world around you.
the level of cognitive dissonance, ease of spreading disinformation, rabid infighting and “chronically online” takes that this new way of approaching politics and social justice is staggering and is how sh!t like january sixth happens yet no one says anything.
this sh!t isn’t like picking sports teams or betting on horses. it’s life or death.
what do you believe in? what are the traits you find most admirable and most important? what are the top five values you hold? what are your criteria for hard decisions? what are acceptable sacrifices and what aren’t? who the fuck are you and what do you think is right or wrong or in between? why do you hate that person and love this one? what does the world need most? fuck the incessant inflow of people telling you the answers to the big questions, fuck using the approval of internet strangers as a metric for measuring your worth and your morality. what do you believe in? the answer may surprise you.

“Queer” is Heteronormative
Even if queer wasn’t a slur (it is), the term when used to describe LGB people is inherently heteronormative. Queer literally means strange. in order for homosexuality and bisexuality to be “strange”, the term queer presents heterosexuality as “normal” in contrast, the opposite of strange.
Implying heterosexuality is the “normal” sexual orientation for people to have is literally heteronormative. Calling homosexuality and bisexuality “queer” (which is just calling them strange) is also heteronormative. I don’t know how to make this any more clear.

if too much interesting but serious shit is happening and it’s stressful, sometimes you get the urge to use social media and waste time and and act unprofessional. if NO interesting stuff is currently happening in your life, and you are understimulated, sometimes you go on social media because your brain will get a fix of current events or what have you and trick you into thinking you have more of a sense of community than you really do. The trick to counteract this is to make sure you have a perfect balance of interesting events going on in your life to feed your little shriveled up zoomerlennial adrenal gland. How do we do this? Well, there’s many ways. One of the most popular ways these days that people our age stimulate their adrenal gland?
A simple, accessible, mindful diet. We call it “Nightshading.” I haven’t consciously* used social media in 9 months because of the events that befall me due to my diet. (my feed might say otherwise, but diurnal sleepwalking is another possible side effect of nightshading. I don’t remember, so I don’t feel guilty about wasting my time)
nightshaders stick to a specific diet. we eat clean, we eat as raw as we can without endangering ourself with prion disease. we eat vegetables and leaves such as spinach or carrots when the mood strikes us, but the core of our diet is simple: we only eat meat if the animal has been fed potatoes for its entire life, we eat this meat 6 days a week, and we eat this meat only when the meat has begun to sprout.

Since nightshading I’ve experienced the positive effects of a “carnist” diet without the medical drawbacks. but more to the point of this post, the side effects of corpse breath/hole pain are nothing in comparison to the bonuses i get from being CLEAN, UNTAINTED by CARBS and REFINED sugars. one of those bonuses is that my luck statistics have been altered. the sprouts you eat pull things towards you, attraction. i’ve been pulling a lot. beautiful men, beautiful women, non fatal car crashes, job opportunities. I’m keeping busy handling all of this newfound specialness to my life, my body is completely operational, i have no need for sitting with myself quietly and reflecting on my past, present and future actions, and i am not consciously aware of my urges to post or any “FOMO.”
This might not be “body positive” of me to say but there is no longer an excuse to eat unenlightened food. once you unplug your conscious mind and start sprouting i mean eating sprouted meat, you will notice the difference almost instantly. if it purified me, it can purify you.
hey okay what does that have to do with social media
I stopped my addiction to social media by cutting out meat that is not sprouted.I stopped my addiction to social media by cutting out meat that is not sprouted.
