like IMAGINE just writing in a caption casually that maybe the pillars of CREATION are already destroyed we just can’t see it yet.. the light of the day that creation is destroyed has not yet dawned on earth what the helllll
Going on a deep dive into Japanese writing systems is fun cause I’ve ended up learning about completely incidental things like historical spellings, Brahmic scripts, why statiōnem became stazione in Italian, and how it’s actually really normal that British people say “Chewsday”

I briefly forgot there were normal humans named Elijah and wondered why this person thought they were getting messages from Actual Prophet and Messiah-Herald Elijah the Tishbite.
….yeah me too.
Me three.
Imagine getting visions of someone else’s holy prophet and having to text your friends like “….what am I supposed to do with that?”

This seems to be the consensus of psychoanalysts as far back as Freud and Jung; the traumatized self creates, out of necessity, a system of self-care that is keen to avoid repeat trauma. This makes change difficult; it makes people who’ve had part of their psyches destroyed by unmanageable emotions push people and emotions away, create obstacles, generate unnecessary drama.”
I dug through my entire archive to find this quote, scrolling back a few years, because this phrase stuck with me as I find myself doing “weird shit”. I needed to read this essay.
