At first it was just one of those conversations, mentioned a topic of trauma and I replied back amicably with my own experience because... that's just how it went. And she kept trying to ONE UP me in trauma! I just kinda shut up because I was honestly stunned, walked away with the excuse of having to get back to work, and I sat there wondering how people could actually want to have that conversation. No one knows what the other went through, trauma is insane and unfortunate and a lot of people don't want to talk about it. I had another woman I had to convince that it was okay to still grieve her deceased husband... after only 6 months. She kept saying "I should be over it," and I could tell that that's what other people told her. I am also a widower and I have been told "Should you have gotten over that by now?" and other variations. I had to convince this poor poor woman that no one can tell you how long to grieve or that you have to let go.

I genuinely used to have trauma imposter syndrome. I have PTSD from an incident where my doctor made a terrible mistake and I almost died from massive blood loss after he completely severed my brachial artery during shoulder surgery. I then nearly died again from the massive infection they sent me home with because my surgeon wouldn't listen to me about how I was feeling and discharged me even though I knew something was wrong. However, I went to a ptsd support group while waiting a year (!) for specialised trauma therapy. After hearing what some of the others had gone through, I felt pathetic for the flashbacks and panic attacks I was having, as what I'd experienced seemed so much less horrible compared to them. The trauma therapy helped me see past this mindset, but some of us with mental health issues already try to downplay our trauma and feel guilty that we couldn't cope with what we went through. We don't need help from other people to minimise our trauma, thanks. Trauma is not a competition. No one wins.

[@dedflatboi77]

Damn, that must of been extremely scary for you, at least you got therapy for that This is a bit of a side rant, but this is one of the biggest problems with the internet: how mental health is taken on the internet There are people who just decide to turn mental health into a joke (e.g. the PTSD contest) I hate people like this, all mental health NEEDS to be taken seriously There are people who fake mental health for views (like that one person who faked Tourette's.) This is simply an insult to people who have been medically diagnosed with mental health issues. Finally, there's the assholes who harass people with mental health issues, treating it likes it's no big deal, telling them to "get over it," etc. It seriously angers me to know someone like that exists (Apologies if this sounds like a main character rant or smth like that, it's just I value mental health with pretty much the highest value I can give)

[@SakkaraKirax]

@@dedflatboi77 Don't worry about the rant. I feel really strongly about how mental health is sometimes portrayed, discussed, minimised or mocked on the Internet too. I do believe there are some people on apps like Tik Tok and KZbin who want to create open discussions and encourage support for one another. There is just so much mental health content out there, though, that it can be hard to wade through. For some people it might be hard to differentiate between the informative, supportive content and the ones giving either intentionally false or genuinely misguided information. Being able to connect with others on the Internet and not feel alone in your mental health struggles can be really powerful. But, sadly, it's also a minefield that can be difficult to navigate safely. Particularly when someone is at their most vulnerable.

What people call "trauma" is not all the same. There is a difference between trauma, ptsd, cptsd , and what some people call "a traumatic expierence". Like, some people (esp online) call every small bad thing traumatic. A small haircare or make-up mistake is not trauma. If you forgot the next day that it happened, and never expirience any long lastig problems from it, and you need zero psychologicial help for it, it is not trauma. But I agree that actual trauma is not a competition, and it can show up in many forms, and it there for all kinds of reasons.

By that logic you could never be happy because others have it better. Trauma is trauma and you should work through it in your own way at your own pace". The only person who can decide your feelings is you. Sometimes people put others down or play the trauma Olympics because they feel inadequate or invalidated, I've been there myself before I matured and learnt that I don't have to be the only person in the world suffering and I'm not special for having PTSD. Just know that you're not alone. I hope you find someone you can trust to talk to about it. I've also been traumatised by media and have gotten phobias from it, so you're not invalid ❤

I don't think it's quite that clear cut. People who actually *do* falsely claim to have a mental illness can cause a lot of problems for those who really have them. They spread dangerous misinformation and disregard the hardships that people go through. I've seen people claim that self-diagnosis is more valid than a doctor's diagnosis. That's just not true. If you think you might have an illness, the proper thing to do is to see a doctor, and telling someone otherwise would be actively harming them. It's not something you can just decide on for yourself, but that's something people encourage by falsely claiming to have a disease. If I just looked at the DSM and diagnosed myself with whatever I feel fits, I'd have dozens of mental illnesses, some of which would literally be mutually exclusive with each other. Now, that's not to say we should go on witch-hunts. Targeting everyone you *think* is lying is likely to catch people who are genuinely suffering, and there's also people who really do have a mental illness, but not the one(s) they think. However, we should push back by encouraging people to seek professional help, and not listening to random people on TikTok and other social media.

My personal favorite dragon to show up in different artworks comes from the Ishtar gate in Babylon approximately 500 BC if you look it up, you can see a dragon type creature painted on the gate.

The mental health thing you talked about reminded me of something I had to explain to my husband when he was feeling overwhelmed but not wanting to come to me about it. The way I see it, everyone has a cup. Some people have big cups some people have little cups, everyone has one. As such some cups can hold more liquid than others, but if you keep filling your cup it doesn't matter if you have a big one or a little one, it WILL overflow. It's okay if it over flows. That's why it's important to find someone who is willing to share their cup with you, so they can help keep you from overflowing. I remember me explaining this to him and him immediately dragging me into a hug and sobbing. He told me anything and everything on his mind while I held him. Since then he has never held back opening up to me. I would give the world to that man if I could.

About mental health: i still remember one year my bicycle flat tired 5 times in two months, last time both tires at the same time. All my energy just fell out the window and I almost cried. And I felt so bad for feeling so sad, when I literally have a brother-in-law who grew up during pol pot regime in Cambodia, where two of his brothers died in child labour camp ... Oh. And he and his family experienced starvation as well. Not to mention people who are raped, victims of human trafficking, mental or physical abuse, robberies, war, traumatizing accidents... But it helped a lot when my brother said that of course I'm allowed to feel sad for something like a flat tire. I can only really compare with my own experiences, and for me that was a bad day.

Even as someone who has had worse days than having a flat bike tire, something comparatively smaller can still be just as upsetting sometimes, depending on what it is. Like, if I go to a restaurant with people and there's only one thing I like there, and they don't have it, I'm ruined. On the other side of the coin, finding out my doctor didn't send the referrals for the tests I needed to get in to see a spinal surgeon to get several years of debilitating and painful back problems fixed has also broken me. Even as someone with bigger problems, "smaller" things can still make you really upset, especially if they manage to tip over the carefully stacked life issues and ruin your Jenga tower.

Actual, that episode of the Proud Family came out before Velma. I haven’t seen it, but I did seen videos about how good it is to talk about that kind of stuff on a kids show way before Velma came out. The Proud Family has always been mostly aimed at middle and high school kids, so the creators have always used it as a platform to introduce kids to difficult subject they may/will face in school and shows them how to go about solving the issue. I remember watching the original series as a kid and loving how not only the child characters, but also the adult ones learn something important by the end of the episode. So I actually like that they had an episode where they brought up Twitter rage bait topics. Because Penny’s right, that boy has a right to like and date whoever he finds attractive and her colored friends are being ridiculous thinking the people should only date people of the same color. They’re also being cruel to their friend just because she’s white. She’s the typical nerdy girl that often does have a lot of self esteem. Yet her own friends are reducing her relationship (which she doesn’t get a lot of, if I remember right) to the color of her skin and the color of her boyfriend’s skin. They’re wrong and the episode is about showing WHY they’re wrong rather than agreeing with them. A lot of the problems in the show seem cringe because they’re being seen from the eyes of high schoolers, which… the only thing cringier than a high schooler… is a middle schooler…

28:15 i use to do this to myself with the "others have it worse" thought process, and met a therapist said that comparing trauma diminishes what you're going through and even though someone else might have it worse you're still struggling with your problem, and what are you gonna do to fix people who have it worses problems? might as well make the head you're stuck in better for yourself Unfortunately everyone handles things differently. And when a person deals with a lot of bullshit, your tolerance for how much you can handle goes up and you will tolerate so much more before you're affected. But even if it's for a divorce someone could handle that with the same emotions as losing both parents if they don't have a comparison.

[@penguinpinata]

" men cant endure trauma or be hurt or feel emotions " i am livid . my friend told me for years it was told to stifle when it was in pain . told it was being dramatic , and felt ostracized from spaces outside of masculinity for safety reasons , but it also felt distant from its friends who were raised and socialized as men and wanted to connect with other people bc its friends didnt know how to be vulnerable or how to fucking interact half the time . if you want people to be better human beings : if you want people to emotionally aware and able to healthily regulate their emotions : dont teach them theyre not allowed to feel emotions , if you want ppl to self examine and be able to make judgements on whats kind and what can impact people : dont teach them they can never be vulnerable or be impacted because what theyre going through isnt bad enough - how abuse works is that theres a good chance that given that frame of reference : not ok things they do will probably feel normal and okay bc they havent been able to unlearn anything . youre fueling the thing you hate which is cycles of abuse , trauma , and oppressive gender norms - not the * living beings * who are systematically brainwashed into specific worldviews , beliefs , maladaptive unhealthy ways of coping , and taught they have to exist in a specific way because heaven forbid if people dont color within the lines : people start trying to hurt us .

1:15 It has been a thing on android phones for a few years now! I use it quite often to steal some charge from other peoples phones

[@marink7332]

29:59 radfems who think like this are disgusting... they say shitlike this on the internet, but im sure if they met a young boy who had been abused in real life they wouldnt say "its okay bc you cant feel anything" to their face. i mean, from their point of view, they might as well, bc men cant feel pain from those words anyways, right? absolutely horrible... they think that by making men into innately evil monsters theyre going to fix anything, when in reality it just takes the responsibility off of men who DO act horribly. "its in their nature," "they couldnt help it", etc. its just making gender roles and stereotypes again but in a different way

[@nodderdude5495]

20:29 I had someone say that to me. it was funny to call them out and say "femboy is short for feminine boy"

[@massylia2911]

I think that some people do genuinely use the term femboy as a way to discriminate against trans women, but if someone uses it to refer to people who identify as male, I do not think it has the same meaning at all😅

[@rasmachris94]

The wireless phone charging thing is actually a thing. I cant remember what brand did it, but there was a feature i remember seeing a generation or two ago where you could remotely charge someone elses phone via wireless charging.

[@pixlheart2369]

Its possible on Samsung Smartphones, its called wireless power share, dont know bout other brands though

[@icetea2790]

Yea you can make samsung kiss and they're sharing power !!!

[@bellablue5285]

It's not really remote, I mean I have to remove both cases and have the phones one on top of the other to get the wireless charging to work, but I've been able to charge one phone with the other (yes I have two cells, one which ended up being co-opted for work, one personal)

[@thesmallestfaerie]

You can do it om iPhones now too but it takes a little more effort, but yeah samsung phones can power share easily 🤭 I thought everyone knew this too

[@cmagee14]

Ugh that mother made me nauseated...i had my son as a teenager so i was always younger than the other moms and he told me his friend called me "the hot mom" but it was probably just because i was clearly younger...that did NOT make me want to put on tight and revealing clothes and try to decide which of my sons friends was "hot"...so gross

[@Midorikonokami]

"there is no bad weather only bad clothes" I agree. A good pair of galoches, a rain hat and coat and you're golden. With heat, on the other hand... Linen. Yards of linen.

I would like to introduce that one person who posted about bloopers in movies to Stanley Kubrick. A director who was known for taking multiple takes in a movie even when like take 2 was perfect. Also, saying that bloopers are a modern thing is ignoring multiple movies that were around in the 1970s and 80s that showed them in the end credits, and that's just the ones that were shown. So many movies have multiple takes and not just because the actor made a mistake. Changes to the weather, an effect not working right or just not looking right, something happening in the background, equipment failure, etc. Basically, making a movie is hard work and saying that an actor should not receive pay because they messed up is nonsense. Good luck to them to find anyone who is willing to act in their movies after learning that they won't pay them if they have to redo a scene

[@albertthompson5808]

In my opinion, anyone who says any child can't experience THAT abuse is just looking for a way to excuse their own repulsive desires.

8:25 Where I live we have a saying "People aren't made of sugar" which basically means a little rain won't hurt you. I don't know what rain did to this person, but I doubt they are made of sugar either since what they are saying is not sweet at all.

I thought Click couldn't get more based, but that casual fact he slipped in there that he was sending Mango plushies to a furcon to be auctioned off for charity? BASED LET'S GO!! I'm not a furry anymore & I've only been to one con, but I know that they regularly raise thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars for small but important charities at their conventions. Some of these charities have even publicly thanked the community because of how massive & useful their contribution was. The con I went to raised money for retired police dogs to ensure that their owners could afford to give them all the care they needed. Those Mango plushies will raise a lot of money for a good cause, I'm sure.

as a trans woman myself i have a message for the person who said femboy is a slur against us sorry bestie but you're wrong. i have been referred to as a femboy by a transphobe but that doesnt make femboy a slur against trans women
