reblogging for the “bullies don’t bully you because they like you”

The number of times I’ve heard it is crazy and I just don’t get it. There’s a difference between banter and being an ass guys. If the person makes you feel shitty, that’s probably what theyre trying to do-- make you feel shitty

Facts that adults don’t tell you about bullying

- Communication doesn’t work on bullies. Telling a bully they’re making you feel bad is the wrong way to go. They want to make you feel bad. That’s the point.

- being kind to a bully doesn’t always mean they’ll stop. Sometimes it means they’ll just use your kindness to manipulate you while still continuing to bully you.

- not every bully has a sympathetically tragic home life. Sometimes people are just mean. Sometimes people just get off on hurting others.

- on that note, a tough home life is a reason, not an excuse. You don’t have to put up with bullying because somebody’s life sucks, just like you don’t have to let someone mug you because they’re broke.

- in order to forgive someone, they have to apologize first. If your bully has not apologized to you, you do not owe them anything.

- getting bullied as a kid can still mess you up in adult life. Maybe kids grow out of being bullies, but the marks they left often don’t go away.

- there are ways to get people to stop bullying you, but they almost all involve being mean back.

- as long as parents keep raising shitty bullying kids, there will be bullies. No amount of assemblies and hand-drawn posters will fix the problem. It’s the parents’ fault.

hey! dark academia tips for a beginner?

Hey, thanks for sending! Here are my best tips for amateur dark academics:

1. Indulge intellectually stimulating activities. Dark academics are always looking to learn more, do more, and be more. Do things that better your brain, such as researching. Find a topic that interests you— one that cannot be easily answered by a simple Google search and collect as much information as you can about it. And despite popular belief, that topic doesn’t have to be literature-based; it can be abnormal psychology, French history, hell— anything your heart desires and your brain would benefit from knowing.

2. Improve your penmanship. Dark academics are always taking notes, annotating, and scribbling things down in their journals. Said notes are usually in cursive or at the least—legible. And what’s worse than distasteful penmanship? Not only will this help you channel your inner dark academic, the people who have to read what you write won’t have to squint and sigh when reading it.

3. Drink more herbal teas and rich coffees. Tea and coffee are probably the two most consumed beverages by dark academics. Tea is relaxing, nice to sip after a laborious day at work or school and coffee is stimulating, a nice early morning wake-up beverage for a majority of the human population.

4. Learn about the classics. This is not exclusive to books and authors. If you’re more of a movie person, like myself, don’t hesitate to go back in time and learn what you can about the most iconic screenwriters of say… the 1940s. If you’re into vintage music, learn what you wish about the most influential musicians of the time. You can never go wrong with vintage! Well… except the racism, homophobia, sexism, slavery, classism, and poor tastes in eyebrow makeup, but that’s a discussion for later.

5. Purchase clothing of darker and earthier tones. This isn’t an absolute must, but many correlate the clothing with the aesthetic, so it would be a helpful identifier if you want the world to know that you’re a dark academic. By “dark and earthier tones”, I mean shades of brown, dark greens— including forest green and sage, greys and of course, blacks. Stay away from the ostentatious neons and pastels, as this is more common in the cottagecore aesthetics. Plaid and tweed are also treasured amongst the dark academia community, but they certainly don’t look good on everyone, so find what works for you. Dark academics also LOVE button-down blouses—especially ones with unique sleeves and Victorian-Era designs.

You don’t have to spend an arm and a leg curating your wardrobe, either. I personally purchase most of my clothing from thrift stores and online resell sites, such as Depop and Poshmark because they’re so much cheaper than buying them new.

6. Opt for darker makeup. This is pretty self-explanatory— wear darker lipstick shades and darker eyeshadow, if you wish. Also, you don’t have to conceal your eyebags, as they give an enigmatic depth to most people’s eyes.

That’s all I have right now, I hope this was helpful!

yeah the realism is just a bone-us

Really convincing decorations.

Atsushi: Wow, great work on the Halloween decorations. Where did you get the Fake skeletons?

Akutagawa: Fake?

rotating hamlet in your head when you're NOT mentally unwell is actually a wonderful experience. because now you can see outside the barbed walls of pain. beyond the balcony rails that look like prison bars. you can see the glimmers of gertrude's undeniable love for hamlet, even when she did it all wrong. you can see the defiance in ophelia's yes my lords, a sort of kindredness to the women you grew up with who knew how to pick battles and hide a smirk. you can see the banter between horatio and hamlet, like boys playing in a creek before one moves away for good. you can watch hamlet mouth the plays the thing, wherein ill catch the conscience of the king and have your heart break for the scared son who's clinging to a reason to live through narrative. and oh, how you notice the narrative. how it encircles. how it continues, despite laertes trying to fling himself to be with ophelia, despite horatio's lips almost kissing the cup. now, you can hold the characters gently, with the distance and closeness of a gravedigger. now, you can hold yourself gently: act five is over now. close the curtains, strike the props, hug the other ones who made it out covered in fake blood and real sweat. the play's the thing, and you might have to do it again. the story lives, on and on and on, in a hundred adaptations in a hundred formats. in a hundred broken peoples heads, and sometimes, those people heal long enough to say denmark was a prison, let me tell you about it.
