This post’s title is a lyric line from the song Killing in the Name (KITM) by Rage Against The Machine. Though it was originally inspired by police brutality; in 2009, this song became a symbolism for a new meaning in the UK. It was clever rebellion by DJ Jon Morter, who refused to allow Simon … More F**K YOU, I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME
This is what I like to call indirect Karma: Karma sometimes skips a generation. Watch how you treat people. And though I hate the idea of an innocent being punished for actions of a guilty a***ole; sometimes it’s the only way a***oles learn. A little like Principle Walker in Promising Young Woman (2020): SPOILER: She … More THE TALE OF 2 SISTERS TO A NARC BROTHER
CONTENT WARNING: This post contains topics of sexual abuse that some readers may find triggering or disturbing. Reader discretion is advised. One of my favourite comedies to watch on-repeat is White Chicks (2004). I loved the hilarious defence line from Karen, when her casual lover was insulted. Karen: Tori, you need to cut Heath a … More PAST TRAUMA IS NOT AN EXCUSE
Love bombing is a toxic trait. But it actually sounds pleasant, as if it could be a Valentine Day’s themed funfair ride. If only….. But come to think of it, perhaps the pretty title actually symbolises the very act itself – a technique used by manipulators to shower their victims with romantic gestures, in order … More THE L-BOMB
Despite resiliently not wanting to dive into the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s defamation court trial, here I am. I stayed out of it as much as I could; but what forced me to observe the case was: how it spiralled into a toxic spectacle. I have to say early on that this is not … More DEPP/HEARD 2022 TRIAL (I know, I know!)
So the word narcissist originated from a mythology story of Narcissus, who drowned because he fell in love with his own reflection. I’m sure many will chuckle to themselves; thinking something like that couldn’t happen to even the vainest of them all. But I could certainly name a modern-day narcissist (narc), who would get very … More DO I LOOK LIKE A NARCISSIST IN THIS?
I loved actress Meryl Streep’s speech at the 2017 Golden Globes awards. Not only because she bravely went after Donald Trump on his disgusting behaviour; but she requoted lovely advice, which is this post’s title. Very good motto from someone who verbalised this while suffering from a strained voice! ✊ A good recommendation after experiencing … More TAKE YOUR BROKEN HEART AND MAKE IT ART
This post is more of a clear warning; so I’m going to get straight to the point by saying: please DON’T repeat the mistakes I did. Twice. By thinking I was able to wing it with serious distressed emotions. If you experience a group of these symptoms all at once, daily, or more frequently compared … More PANIC DOESN’T JUST HAPPEN AT THE DISCO
Were you like me as a kid and had confusion over how people cried when they’re happy? Crying at the time, seemed like it was meant to be for sadness only. I didn’t feel alone in this puzzlement when a TV show’s alien character was also baffled at this concept 😁 Nowadays, there are categories … More TEARS FOR FEARS
Following on from my About section; throughout this blog, majority of what I’m about to write is from my personal experience, courtesy of 2 former toxic scums in my life. I didn’t want to disrespect anyone through an alias name for them, so I will be naming them: Gaslighting Evildoer (GE) and Victim-play Culprit (VC). … More BACKSTORY
