you’re lying, disingenuous, and not trying to tell a story by posting a link to a search result for images of earth day….

but, pretend like you’re genuine:
trying new stuff is FUCKING GREAT.
try to glue yourself to things is FUCKING STUPID.
why harm yourself, when there’s CEO’s with houses and addresses you could….

there’s a lot of waaaay better tactics than hurting yourself to gain sympathy… it’s basically turning munchaousens syndrome into a form of protest….
or, what you are doing, is referred to as munchausen syndrome by proxy
in english, at least….

please fucking stop advocating for SELF-harm
