    Thanks for tagging me in this! That’s something I needed to hear right now. Rumination has been a huge issue for me throughout the years, but is something I’m getting better at.

    For a long time now I have made the decision to stop “imposing” myself, that is, I stopped choosing and started letting others choose, I also stopped confronting people for being ableist or lgbtphobic (Mao would be sad at me), I already struggled with this confrontation a lot, but the negative interactions I got made me basically stop altogether. And the worst part is that no matter if I did this, or if I did the opposite, I always felt regret, either because I was led to believe I’m wrong or because I felt like shit for not doing it.

    But I’m done with this. Just today I called out two friends for this type of thing. I don’t care anymore if I’m pointed as being in the wrong, I know I’m not and it’s the bare minimum for me to grow and for them to behave.

    Fuck conforming, fuck regret, we should listen to ourselves.
