Warning - contains too many things about Shameless(US), Gallavich, Britin, Jonnor & Robron. I'm also trash to a another lot of shows. This is a secondary blog; I follow and message by the name of 'super-star-editing-501'.
this post is making a very good and important point- that teenagers who are having bad experiences in high school are not crazy or overreacting or imagining it- and I’m not reblogging so as not to derail it. that said also think it’s worth mentioning, in case any of my younger followers see it and are freaked out by it, that entering high school is not a guarantee that you are about to be subject to years worth of constant psychological degradation. some people have very awful experiences and, as this post says, these people are completely in the right to recognize that horror- but a lot of people also just keep to themselves, have a couple friends, and have an OK time. i can personally say, as someone who was severely bullied in junior high, high school was 100 times better for me and I mostly just went to class and did theatre kid stuff. high school doesn’t automatically guarantee you will suffer horribly during it, if that’s something you’re scared of.
Something that never clicked for me until I read Planka.nu is that driving puts you in a completely different psychological mindset than using public transit. “Road rage” exists because when everyone is in their own car trying to get somewhere, they are competing with all of the other cars for space- the more cars there are on the road, the harder it is for you to get where you’re going. But when you’re riding a bus or a train, you’re going the same direction as all of the other passengers in a single vehicle, which creates a fundamentally cooperative frame of mind- you’re all in the same situation. Cars turn people against each other
