when people are getting all their needs met they tend to be positive

alicehoffmans:

i’m just going to say the unpopular thing which is that the whole thing abt negativity has swung WAY too far to the other side on here, like…suddenly the onus is on me to not post anything negative so as to not upset you personally??

look, people can be as negative as they want on their own goddamn blogs, the onus is actually on YOU to unfollow them if their posts are upsetting you.

also the whole ‘oh well they’re just being negative because they think it’s EDGY’ like…sometimes?? but not very often; honestly usually when i talk to someone with a negative mindset or having negative thoughts they have good reason to be that way.

usually when someone’s being negative it’s because…the negatives in their life outweigh the positives.
