Maybe love stays. Maybe love can’t. Maybe love shouldn’t. Love arrives exactly when love is supposed to. And love leaves exactly when love must. When love arrives, say, ‘Welcome. Make yourself comfortable.’ If love leaves, ask her to leave the door open behind her. Turn off the music, listen to the quiet. Whisper, ‘Thank you for stopping by.’

Instead, I said “it’s okay,” which was the opposite of what I meant.
I meant, “it’s not okay.”
I meant, “why?”
I meant, “please don’t leave me.”
I meant, “I have loved you for five years.”Sarah Kay, Table Games(via halcyonweather)

13 Reasons Why
Don’t watch it. Do not watch this fucked up mess of a show. Listen, I’ve been working in suicide prevention for almost six years, and I grew up in an area that had epidemics of teen suicides. The area is actually so well known that the show-writers and producers met with leading experts in the area on the ways that the media contributes to youth suicides - and then did almost everything they were warned not to do, even going so far as to actually show the suicide on-screen. Many of the experts that they’ve spoken with are expressing grave disappointment with how the show proceeded despite their advice.
If you’re suicidal, if you’re depressed, if you self-harm, and/or if you have any trauma associated with that, please do not watch this show. It was incredibly irresponsibly handled and puts people in very real danger.
reblogging this again because it is insanely triggering and i want you all to be safe
that book was the most suicide-glorifying thing i ever laid hands on and i cannot believe it got as popular as it did because it really tries to drop the message of “hey if you die, everyone will realize what a beautiful, tragic figure you are and also that you were RIGHT ALL ALONG and they will regret everything they did to you”
and it’s just an awful, dangerous message to send ESPECIALLY to anyone who might be having harmful thought
so yes, seconding this messageSo from what Ive read this show can be good but only for people who dont understand abuse or suicide because they havent experienced it. Its hard to believe but a lot of people think those who kill themselves are cowards so for them or for people who dont have empathy this show could be good, but not for those who already know this very well.

i want to be careful in my criticism because i know this book meant a lot to people but i personally find the entire enterprise to be completely irresponsible
I want everyone to recognize the truth in this article https://theestablishment.co/13-reasons-scared-the-shit-out-of-me-and-it-should-scare-you-too-5d3fd4e8d300 and the tv show took liberties with the book to make it more graphic. I can see this TV show as being very dangeroud.

If you look at the vote totals in Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio, which are the three states that Donald Trump had to win, and those are three states he won, you’ll see Donald Trump got a margin of 129,000 votes in Florida. Jill Stein’s vote in Florida was 63,000. You could give Hillary Clinton 100 percent of Jill Stein’s votes in Florida, and she still would have lost Florida.
In Pennsylvania (the numbers are still in flux) there was a spread of 68,000 votes. In Pennsylvania Jill Stein got 49,000 votes. Donald Trump still would have won Pennsylvania.
Ohio. There was different - this was a thrashing, a demolishing, this was devastating - Donald Trump won by a margin of 456,000 votes and Jill Stein only got 44,000 votes period, in Ohio. There’s no way in hell you can blame Jill Stein for Hillary Clinton losing.
So let’s go one step further. I did this electoral map, right? This is what Hillary Clinton could have gotten if Jill Stein was not in the race. If Jill Stein was not in the race you see that Wisconsin would have gone blue, and Michigan would have gone blue. Right now Michigan is leaning red and it looks like it’s going to go to Donald Trump.
But if Jill Stein had not come into the race at all, Hillary Clinton would have won Wisconsin and Michigan, and everything else plays out like it played: Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania still would have gone to Donald Trump. Donald Trump still would have gotten 276 electoral votes, and Donald Trump still would have beaten Hillary Clinton if you take Jill Stein 100 percent out of the equation.
You have people saying, “Yeah but if you take out Jill Stein AND you take out Gary Johnson, then Hillary Clinton would have won.” To which I say, “Well hell, if we take out Donald Trump, then Hillary Clinton would have won. If all the people who did not vote for Hillary Clinton voted for Hillary Clinton, then she could be President of the world.” BUT IT DOESN’T WORK LIKE THAT.
There is no realistic scenario on earth where 100 percent of Jill Stein’s supporters vote for Hillary Clinton. That’s like saying there is no such thing as the Green Party. That’s like saying that all Green Party voters should absolutely be forced to vote for the Democratic Party. Fuck democracy, right? There’s no scenario in the world where even if Jill Stein wasn’t in the race, then 100 percent of her voters would have gone to Hillary Clinton.
Let’s say at best, 75 percent. 75 percent of Stein’s voters and Hillary still loses.
And there’s no way in the world that 50 percent of Libertarians - people who hated this entire election enough so that they voted for Libertarians - there’s no way that 50 percent of them would have broken towards the Democratic Nominee.
Do you even know what Libertarians stand for? Their economic policies are further to the right than Republicans. They essentially want to do away with all income taxes and replace it with a consumption tax. And people are suggesting that, “Oh, well if they just voted for the Democratic Party…” As if there’s no difference between someone who wants to raise taxes like Hillary Clinton, and someone who wants to abolish taxes, like Gary Johnson.
As if their voters are totally the same.BENJAMIN DIXON calls out false narratives: Whenever Democrats lose an election, instead of critiquing their candidate and honestly accessing their Party’s performance, the Democratic establishment deploys a false narrative that blames Third Party opposition.
Real talk: Nationally, the Green Party got slightly less than 1 percent of all votes, and Libertarians are basically Republicans who routinely do not vote for Democrats. So you can legitimately blame voter suppression, or voter apathy, or the Electoral College system, or you can just say that you wish there were two and only two candidates on the ballot, but realistically what you cannot do is blame third party voters for Clinton’s loss.
