    Please remember that almost everyone around you is traumatized. I didn’t understand this when I was younger. I wondered why people acted so strangely and irrationally. Maybe all children wonder this. The author Robert Anton Wilson said (paraphrasing), “We have never seen a completely sane adult human.” No one makes it out of this life alive. It’s not their fault. Mercy, kindness, forgiving — these are what makes one human. They are other names for love. People break in the strangest of ways.

    “Under the present brutal and primitive conditions on this planet, every person you meet should be regarded as one of the walking wounded. we have never seen a man or woman not slightly deranged by either anxiety or grief. we have never seen a totally sane human being." — Robert Anton Wilson

    [ID: a screenshot of a tweet from @sokkasecho reading “may i willingly introduce you to a renewed adult aang?” The accompanying photos show a version of adult Aang with brown eyes, slightly darker skin, a wider mouth, thicker lips, and a less angular jaw. The first photo is him from the shoulders up, and the second image is him from the stomach up as he’s talking to Korra. End ID]

    Guys. This is what absentee ballots are being mailed in.

    Pay attention to your mail. If you see Trump on it, as disgusting as this is, don't throw it out. Check it first. This is absolutely appalling.

    Check your mail. Make sure you don't throw out your vote on accident because it's got Trump's cheating, lying, racist face on it.

    No, this is NOT a ballot and this is not how ballots arrive. This is a ballot REQUEST form being mailed by the Arizona Republican party so Republican voters can send in REQUESTS to get an absentee ballot sent to them - you can see that on the form itself. I have gotten two such forms already from the Democratic party in my area. The parties send them out so people can easily REQUEST their ballots. This is NOT a ballot. You can get these from anyone’s website without the branding.

    That said- make sure you know your ballot times, and rules - like secrecy envelopes - so you can vote correctly when you do send in your ballot.

    There’s nothing wrong with being pansexual and there’s nothing wrong with being bisexual, and no matter the similarities or differences that may or may not be between them, both identities are valid and deserve love, respect, and representation.

    Edit: please credit me if you respost this to another platform

    [id: There are four images.

    The first one has a light pink background and says in white text “Pansexuality is not transphobic”.

    The second one had a light blue background and says “Bisexuality is not enbyphobic”.

    The third one is light purple and says “Neither bisexuality nor pansexuality is superior or inferior to the other”.

    The last one has a light yellow background and says “Bi and pan are both valid LGBTQ identities”.]

    My psychiatry professor says individuals with a higher IQ when children must be stimulated to develop it further or else they are more susceptible to develop anxiety and depression and also “falling off the curve”. And since as a child you can’t control the circumstances of your development, I’m sad to inform that your family and society have failed you.

  • colbycub

    This explains…..so much

  • ariel-s-awesome

    Your family and society failed you but not because they weren’t “intellectually stimulating” enough.

    It’s because everyone thought you were mature because you were book smart and thought you needed less teaching and care.

    And let you build an identity on being a “smart kid” without helping you build your own inherent self worth, or skills you need to be a functionally, emotionally stable adult.

    Now you’re not a kid anymore, or feeling particularly smart after burnout when your peak was in elementary school.

    The solution isn’t to throw kids in harder classes and give them more stress and expectations to live up to, it’s to work on them as a person instead of as a set of skills needed to find a job.

    Also keep in mind that psychiatry professors, psychologists, behavioral scientists and the like aren’t the true experts. Their knowledge is second-hand. No amount of studying can teach them more than what mentally ill people know when their lived experiences.

    Signed, a former “gifted kid” with anxiety, depression, and dissociation

    PS: IQ is fake and meaningless pseudoscience.
