animentality:

Sometimes people being overly optimistic all the time is really fucking annoying. Annoying at best, disrespectful at worst.

People who never get upset and who are always being positive or whatever, you’re thinking, oh they’re the best people, but I call bullshit about that.

I genuinely wonder if they care about anything.

Like do you hear yourself?

Human beings need to be upset sometimes, you smiling fuckfaced goon.

Stop trivializing other people’s emotions with your condescending “it’s ok, everything’s fine.”

It’s NOT fine.

And the fact that it isn’t fine is important.

We can change our circumstances if we accept that things aren’t fine.

You blathering in my ear about how a gun pointed at my face is just peachy because at least you’re not being shot (yet) is the least productive-

Listen positivity in dark times is fine. It’s great sometimes, in fact.

But there’s a fine line between someone recognizing there’s a problem and not letting themselves be overwhelmed by it.

And refusing to see a problem because of some ignorant moral superiority complex because you can let someone else just deal with the “real” problems.
