Of course my friend! It’s my life purpose to spread the love of Jesus and get as many people to heaven as I can. When He was on Earth, He loved EVERYBODY. He acquainted Himself with the lowly and the poor, the people that the strict religious people of their times despised. Jesus told us to love everybody, whether they are a neighbor or an enemy. It is very sad to see how many so-called Christians have become so hostile. Christianity may disagree with LGBT but it by no means endorses violence or hate. Any Christian who practices such violence has forgotten their way and who they’re truly following… Jesus.
When I was a child, from the time I was about four and could understand things, my mom told me and my brother that we should have a secret word. That way, if we were ever in trouble or felt unsafe and we didn’t want the people around us to know we needed her to come get us, we could let her know. So she let us pick the word and my brother and I chose the phrase “peanut butter cups.” (I’m happy to share the phrase now since both my brother and I are adults now).
I used the phrase twice in my life. Once, I was at a friends house when I eight years old. Her dad got really drunk and was throwing things against the wall. I was really scared and I didn’t want to draw attention to myself on the phone when I called my mom to come get me because I didn’t know if he would get more violent if I asked her to come get me. So I called her and was calm and after a couple minutes I asked “Hey mommy, did you get me those peanut butter cups from the store?” And she said “I’ll be right there.” And she came and got me within minutes.
Second, I was a teenager spending the night at a friends house. Her brother and dad were drinking and they started talking about things that made me uncomfortable – ie: what they liked to do to women. My friend didn’t seem perturbed and said that was normal for them and that I shouldn’t worry. But I was worried because they were really drunk and I was 15 and the only ‘woman’ around that wasn’t related to them. I went in my friends room, told her I needed to call my mom and say goodnight. Before I hung up with her I asked “Next time we go to the store, can we get some peanut butters cups? I’ve been craving them.” And she came and got me, just like that.
Two incidents, one as a young child, one years later as a teen. Don’t discredit this stuff, it fucking works. My brother used it a few times too. Let your child pick the word and no never, ever, ever, ever get mad at them for using it no matter what it is.
I don’t mean to impose a personal favour on you guys, but I really would like to ask that everyonewho follows me reblog this.
I don’t think I made it very clear but last month I was sexually assaulted by someone who I thought was my friend (I don’t want to talk about it don’t ask), and it’s… really fucked with my head.
Had I known this a month ago I would have been able to get away.
So, essentially, I’m really pleading with you to reblog this so everyone who follows you doesn’t get stuck in the same position I was with no way out.
I mean again I don’t want the point of this to be my sob story or whatever but if you could reblog this it would seriously mean a lot
and im asking to all of my followers who see this post in your dashboard to please press play to this video, you never know when this is gonna be
useful, PLEASE DON’T IGNORE IT.
This is one of the first moves I was taught in Krav Maga, and it is one of the most effective.
It took me about a half hour to get down with practice, but once you get it, it’s an intuitive movement.
I don’t know if this has made it’s way on tumblr yet, but after searching something on here, I went back to my dashboard and a site like this was redirected to me:
Do NOT, under any circumstance,OPEN THE FILE WHEN IT WAS DOWNLOADED!
The website itself in the URL bar looks fishy enough as it is, I was lucky enough to delete the file and then check the internet to see of this was real, and multiple sites can confirm this is a virus!!!
Do NOT OPEN IT PLEASE, IT IS A VIRUS!!!
Instead, go to your downloads folder and delete it!!!! Then, until this has cleared up, PLEASE go to your Google Chrome settings, go to advanced settings, and check “Ask Where to Save Each File Before Downloading” so that this doesn’t happen again!!!
Please, please, PLEASE signal boost so no one gets a yucky virus on their computer!!!!
ok i’m seeing a lot of people still do this so i want to clear up a misconception:
both frisk and chara are non-binary and use “they” pronouns. neither of them are intended to be avatars of the player and neither of them you’re ultimately intended to project your own gender on
the game wants you to think this – it wants you to assume frisk is the character you named at the beginning of the game, and it wants you to project on frisk and then later on chara when it’s revealed chara is the human you named – but it’s to mess with you. neither of these are true.
frisk’s entire character is about how they aren’t you – they’re their own independent person, who maintained their own independent personality in spite of their hardships and who ultimately lives on as their own person. that’s why the narration in the mirror says “it’s still you” and “still just you, frisk.” it’s kind of like raiden in mgs2, when him throwing the dog togs with your name on them away at the game’s ending was meant to show how he wasn’t under your control anymore
chara’s character is the same way. without getting too deep into the more complicated chara meta, you’re tricked into inputting the name you usually do in rpgs – which is probably your own name – because the entire game is about the relationship between the player and the characters you control in rpgs. chara’s behavior, for good or ill, is reflective of your actions – that is why, in no mercy, they refer to “your guidance” as being what drives them.
but chara is not you either, in any route. in no mercy, they become more powerful than you, and if you give them your soul they take control of the timeline – if they’re you, that makes no sense. in the pacifist route, they are clearly and consistently shown to be their own character with their own history and personality that’s not your own, just like frisk. and, just like frisk, characters such as asriel and the monsters refer to chara consistently with they pronouns.
in short: stop misgendering frisk and chara. it’s really not hard to refer to them with the correct pronouns, the same way as the game does, and if you’ve beaten the game i really don’t think you have an excuse to keep doing this
What? No Toby Fox himself said that the character is basically supposed to be you and you project yourself on the character? Freaking Frisk is AMBIGOUS for the PLAYER to decide. Frisk is in no way shape or form non-binary in canon, they are whoever the player wants to be! Stop gatekeeping Frisk, if this is your interpretation, GREAT! But do NOT say that people can’t use he/she pronouns because NO WHERE IS IT STATED IN CANON THAT FRISK IS NON BINARY! GIVE ME CANON EVIDENCE THAT OUT RIGHT SAYS FRISK IS NON BINARY AND CAN ONLY USE THEY/THEM PRONOUNS!
Toby fox says to use your own name for the name of the fallen child.
That is impossible because THEY HAVE NO CANON GENDER.
THEY CAN BE LITERALLY WHATEVER YOU WANT.
STOP BEING GATEKEEPING ASSHOLES.
>2000 notes and everyone is agreeing with this tripe
C’mon, kids, don’t do this. You wanna interpret Frisk/Chara as non-binary, that’s cool, knock yourself out, but don’t do this “MY HEADCANON IS TRUE AND EVERYONE ELSE IS WRONG” shit.
I feel I need to boost this to our community a bit more, if you think guardians are invincible, they are not. They have minds that are as fragile as the next, and at least understanding more than “They’re just sad all the time.” can make a big difference.
@ask-cayde-6 I must ask a favour, as you are followed by so many more than the rest of us, that you reblog this.
Rebloging for the boost and cause I had ( or maybe still have) depression and it’s really accurate. Go on people, it take some time but you will feel better someday!
If you work in a movie theater and you do this I have no respect for you.
My younger brother is Type 1 Diabetic.
When we go to a movie theater, we always get him diet soda. If he were to get regular when we asked for diet, we would not give him the insulin he would need for it. If that happens, his blood sugar level could go so high he could go into a coma, go blind, or even die.
If somebody gave him regular soda instead of diet without telling us, that person could be responsible for a nine-year-old being killed or blinded.
Just thinking about that makes me so angry. I get scared every time we take him to a movie in case the people working there saw this picture and decide to do the same thing.
Please signal boost this so people know.
This also applies to baristas
Fun story about the baristas doing this kind of shit.
I am very sensitive to lactose, not Lactose intolerant but because of stomach ulcers that are still healing. A couple years ago I went to Starbucks right after my classes with some friends and asked for a green tea latte with soy milk. The barista, for some reason out of malice and/or hate for her life so she took it out on me, gave me whole milk in my latte.
5 minutes after my first sip of latte, my stomach cramped BAD. Not the “Oh! time to poop!” kind of cramp but it felt like someone had stabbed me with a knife and twisted it. Now I’ve had this happen before so I knew the cause of it. I went up to the barista clutching my gut screaming at her that she put dairy in my latte rather than soy LIKE I REQUESTED. She denied it and called me a “pretentious white girl for wanting soy”and so my friends got the manager. I had to explain that I had stomach ulcers that were still healing and if I were to go to the hospital for this incident, they would be responsible for it.
Manager flipped his shit and the barista was terrified out of her mind. Pretty sure both thought i was gonna sue. Manager actually fired her on the spot because of the negligence. My friends managed to get me home in one piece while I stayed home for 3 days in absolute agony and missed my midterm.
So remember kiddies, if someone is asking for Diet or “Skinny” or “soy” or anything that is not regular, give them what they requested because it may not be them being healthy, but a dietary need that can possibly be life or death
