never realised how much media demonised aro-but-not-ace people till i saw it in myself

Post about Mask of My Own Face by Lemon Demon cause I’m bored

(shtty theory!! Also my view on it, just randomly on a sunday decided to do this 😭)

Huow I see it is someone not feeling comfortable enough about themselves that they need to pretend to be a different person, but everyone associates his face with this personality. ORRR of course it might be masking.

“And I’d dance with all the belles.”

He thinks he’s not good enough to dance with him as his true self.

“None of them would know that I was secretly myself”

They think of “himself” as a different person than he thinks of himself as.

“I’d rob my own apartment and I wouldn’t give a damn.”

He would self-sabotage? I’m not sure about this one.

“I’d blame it on the person nobody knows I am.”

How could they hate someone who ‘doesn’t exist’? Also ties back to self sabotaging?

“I look into my eyeholes, what do I see? A handsome motherf*cker motherf*cking looking right at me.”

Phrased as though it’s a different person. And looking into the eyeholes of the mask; eyes are the gateway to the soul. Saying “handsome” shows it’s not a quality of personality, it’s a physical quality that he thinks will make him a better person. Gods this is a shitty theory I’m sorry 💀

“A mask of my own face, I’d wear that.”

He doesn’t have the same idea of his face as people do of this mask. Or: he wears a mask that isn’t his face, and wants to be himself but is scared of being open.

“I'd wear it on Thanksgiving and I'd laugh in the parade

At all the people hissing, knowing I'm the one they hate.”

“I’m the one they hate”: is he thinking he is that person now? Has he used that persona so much it’s becoming reality?

“And at the big finale I would tear my face away

And smile as they grip their own and try to do the same”

He would tear off his mask, he wouldn’t be that person anymore if nothing mattered. Hypothetical language is used implying that he would do that if he didn’t care.

And everyone else wishes rhey could be themselves but it’s melded into them?? Or they wish it was a persona maybe?

Yeah I’m sorry this was really shitty 💀 open to criticism 😭😭

will drink my water now. thank you, fish

I would like for you to drink 1 water today, you can drink half a water now and the other half later if that's easier, take care of yourself please

i don’t know exactly what this post is for but oh well

like not in a way that would break it

just chewing on it

is this a symptom of depression or smth lmaoo

Irishmen and women, Constance Markievicz didn’t fight for nothing. But yeah, i agree with the overall thing. HOW DO THEY NOT CARE? We’re fighting over here in the Sé Chondae (six counties)!!

she's a hero. she should dump her west brit "friends" and become friends with me instead

since gay has become synonymous with queer what if we call gay men m&ms (men and men)

it also plays into the “skittles” joke

I want to see an un-anglicised version of Irish.

No English influence or anything. It would be interesting.

Ba mhaith liom féiceal Gaeilge gan aon béarlachas.

Gan aon tionchar ón Bhéarla. Bheadh sé suimiúil.

NOOOOO NOT DARE 😭😭😭

drinking hasn’t been in my family for a generation but i feel the weight of the “curse”, as my great-grandmother apparently called it.

i’m starting to believe her

trauma really does damage to families, doesn’t it?

(not going to pretend i have it bad/worse than others, i’m fine, just food for thought.)

pet peeve?

when someone sees a hijabi and immediately assumes anything.
