Anyways the way Tumblr treats the Perks Of Being A Wallflower like it’s cringe and bad just because of the hipster craze over it in 2012 and ignoring the fact that it’s one of the few books/movies that shows the ugly side of teen mental illness and discusses sexual trauma in young boys (something only portrayed in shows like SVU) is in fact, bullshit, and I’ll never forgive y'all for taking the line “we accept the love we think we deserve” (a reference to toxic abusive relationships) and turning it into cringe culture. This is a book about a struggling depressed kid who I saw myself in as a teen, and yeah he and his friends could be annoying and pretentious but are you going to say you weren’t as a kid?

Honestly, I read the book back in the early 2009 when I was getting ready to start college, and the above line, “we accept the love we think we deserve”, was so utterly profound in helping me to realize I was in an abusive relationship and why I kept going back to him.
It gave me the power to reject the idea that this was all I was worth, and made me hold myself to a higher standard of self love and worth, and to ensure I never let anyone treat me like that again.
Words matter. Even popular ones.
Fuck, even those “live laugh love” signs are important to somebody. And if looking at those signs every day keeps someone going and reminds them of important things in their life, just fucking let them be and mind your own business.
We’re all just trying to get by in our own way. There’s no need to make it any harder.
“Okay, so we went to so much trouble to break up Eddie Brock from his symbiote, what do we do with him now?”
“Kill him.”
*after what I can only imagine was a fan outcry of epic proportions, followed by a quiet retcon of Eddie surviving later*
“Okay, so killing Eddie Brock is off the table. It’s out of the kitchen, even. We taken it, thrown it into the garbage disposal. It’s in shreds. So, what do we do with him instead?”
“… give him another symbiote. Make it white, so it’s clearly different from Venom. Call him… Not-Venom (Well, maybe not, but we can workshop the name later!). And don’t let the new symbiote have a personality! That way it can’t fall in love with him like the last one did.”
“… brilliant.”
*later, after the Anti-Venom comics have come out*
“… I think all we’ve done is establish what an absolute disaster Eddie Brock is, Venom or no Venom.”

I would love to have both this level of core muscle strength and this level of cats.
