I want to share a bit of a PSA. This is an art blog, but I think this is important enough to be spoken.
Don’t force yourself to stay in a toxic relationship. If your gut is telling you something is wrong, you should listen to it and get out- whether they’re a ‘friend’, family, or romantic partner, you as a person deserve better than being put through abusive hell.
I’ve spent the last nearly four years going in and out of a toxic environment in belief I had good things in it. In a way, I did. There’s things I loved- all these artworks are from that era. I was wholly aware of the toxicity and thought I could ignore it. News flash: you can’t. Something will always get to you. There will always be that feeling of not matching up, or gaslighting, or even feeling like you can’t speak up without being lashed out at. I felt trapped with people I thought I could love in a sense- I gave them my time and effort, thinking I could better things, and ended up burned for it.
Don’t do this. You can’t help people who don’t want to change a thing. Offer paradise all you want, if you don’t enable toxic behavior, those people will just go right back to the ones who do. Save yourself the heartbreak and frustration. Don’t put yourself in a position where you’re afraid to even move, you have a right to feel more than guilt and misery for living. Take what you have left, and get out. Nobody is worth losing your identity over.
Fuck Star signs, your favorite Clone Trooper tells me everything I need to know about you-
Oh your fave is Cody? Let me know how that eldest sibling guilt and perfectionism works out for you.
You like Fives? Does laughing off all your trauma make you feel better? Or are you just praying that if you make others laugh you’ll forget how empty you feel all the time?
Fox enjoyers? Do your good grades and first place medals keep you warm at night or do you always hear that echo of imposter syndrome when you drift off to sleep?
Wolffe fan? How does it feel knowing that you can’t control everything? How does it feel knowing that one day you’re gonna wake up and realize that shutting everyone out only leaves you in the cold?
Your favorite clone is Rex? Hello LGBTQ+ Community.
You like Echo? Does constantly feeling like second best eat you alive at night? Do you love lifting others up even though they’ll walk over you again and again?
Your fave is Hunter? Does your need for control come from that nagging feeling of helplessness that haunts all your thoughts or do you just wish you could save everyone , even if they aren’t worth it?
Heavy? How many times have people dismissed your interests? How many times have you bottled up all your love because people call you “too much”?
Oh you like an obscure clone with little to no speaking lines? How does it feel thinking you’ll always be trapped on the outside no matter how hard you try?
If you like Kix that just means you don’t know your identity beyond serving others-
Boil is your fave? Tell me, is following the rules and being the leader actually what you want? Or do you just wish to bare the burden so others don’t have to?
Waxer? Does your bleeding heart actually help others, or are you just giving away your soul because you know no other way?
Your favorite clone is an oc? Do the empty lunch tables of your past still haunt you? Do you remember all the “friends” who picked you last?
Ivy what about Chad
Oh Chad? Does having fun with your friends online help you forget how lonely you are inside? Is laughing the only way you can feel anything-
banishment is such a tragic punishment. you are not dead but you are dead to your homeland. the place that raised you recoils. it’s love turned sour and being forbidden from the very place that birthed you. the only way back is through death or through forgiveness and you are not ready for either
[id: two screenshots from “The Siege of the North: Part 2.″ The first one is Zuko standing at the mouth of a cave, facing away from the viewer and looking out into the blizzard. A speech bubble is drawn so that it looks like he is saying the post above. The second image is Aang unconscious on the floor of the cave with his arrow glowing. End id.]
tumblr friendships are hard to maintain like im sorry i know i havent talked to you in 5 months but you’re still super rad and i still consider us friends im just dumb
Steven Universe Live Action CW Reboot (circa 2036)
Steven is now a depressed 27 year old who’s addicted to drugs to cope with his traumatic childhood.
Lots of offensive and harmful portrayals of Steven’s mental illnesses.
He’s in a turbulent, on and off relationship with Connie who is demanding and bitchy towards him for some reason and is played by someone with light skin.
Pearl is a womanizer who has one night stands with random human women and then ghosts them afterwards. Garnet is portrayed as cold and careless while Amethyst gets into fights with people all the time and is overall aggressive and rude. She also sells cocaine apparently, which is how Steven gets it.
Greg is now a lazy, deadbeat dad who was never there for Steven and resents him for being the reason Rose is gone.
Speaking of Rose, it’s revealed at the end of season 1 that she was still alive this whole time.
When Steven finds out he goes on a rant filled with lines you’d find on Riverdale. “You know what? I’ve got demons. Demons all inside my mind, and you put them there!”
Peridot speaks exclusively in outdated memes and is one of those nerdy fangirl type characters who was written by someone who hates teenage girls and women.
The Diamonds are really sexy(I mean, they already are hot. But I mean the live action adult TV show kind of sexy where they’re always wearing bikinis)
Unnessessary sex scene with Steven and Connie to show the viewers look!!! They’re adults!!! See!!!!! They have sexy sex!!!!!!
Jasper is predatory butch wlw stereotype.
Ruby and Sapphire sex scene written by a straight man.
Lots of on screen shatterings because edgy.
Connie is pregnant but it turns out Steven’s not the father because she was cheating on him after they had a big fight.
Little Homeworld has become a red light district because??? Idk???
That’s all I can come up with, I can’t continue this any longer it hurts too much.
