a lot of you didn't use tumblr so you don't know this but I really recommend not using your profile info and pinned post to advertise a list of reasons to bully you. seriously, putting a bunch of personal info on your pinned posts won't actually do anything useful for people who respect you, and will only be picked through by people looking for victims who will react or be strongly affected by bullying. especially if you're in the habit of making funny posts that get shared a lot. Cohost is not exempt from containing insecure weirdos who want to pick on easy targets. wait until after getting to know someone before deciding whether you can trust them with your whole story. You don't owe anyone a description of your mental illnesses or traumas or anything. stay safe stay mysterious

21, disabled catgirl deeply in love with the worst fictional addict you've ever seen. Too filthy to live, too spiteful to die.
in reply to @chirasul's post:
This is sound advice for the vast majority of scenarios, however you can also be so specifically weird that nobody knows what to do with you. No one has ever bullied me for my opinions on farting
my life got a lot easier once i realized that bullies dont actually seek out any specific demographics or personalities; weird or normal, gay or straight, girl or boy, anything in-between. they only seek out people who will be strongly affected or who will have a big reaction to bullying. people who react. cuz they're looking for a reaction! the only way to fend them off is to deny them what they want. i, however, will be more than happy to bully you about your opinions on farting.
as if my persona would stand up to scrutiny if I weren't mysterious
see that works even better. real ones will LOVE what they find after the mystery is gone, and phonies who want to bully you will fight past the mystery and then find nothing of interest to them and get disenchanted with their whole bullying ethos
Much like a video game boss fight it is in my nature to show off my massive glowing weak spot prominently and leave it undefended but only after my attack pattern is finished.
you gotta be like an elden ring boss and only show your weak spot after someone has beat the shit out of you with a hammer
What if I do like a Monster Hunter boss fight and get more aggressive and hit for more damage after somebody chops off my tail?
