Hey guys no update this weekend (sorry) since y'all got the official update on Tuesday (or Monday) but I have some things to discuss about the last chapter.

There was a part that I think some people were a little divided about since I sadly got to see an argument about it; Lance nearly kissing Keith when he was asleep. Alright, so to put this in the most blunt way possible, don't kiss/touch someone without consent.

If I were to have Lance kiss Keith when he was asleep I would've actually destroyed a little lesson in the story about respecting others because Keith wouldn't be able to give any indication to Lance on whether or not he would be okay with Lance kissing him. This applies to real life; if someone kissed me without my consent I would be a very pissed off person. It is NOT okay to do that despite what TV shows/movies/literature says.

So now onto my next topic; pro eating disorder accounts.

Don't follow me on Tumblr, do not talk to me, do not even try to associate yourself with me if you're a pro eating disorder account because you disgust me. You encourage a form of self harm and that's something I cannot tolerate. Ever since I started posting this story to AO3 I've had some eating disorder accounts follow my Tumblr and I feel like it's because of Beautiful Disasters. I don't support bulimia/anorexia/binge eating disorders because they're extremely harmful to you.

This shit about to get real personal now so listen up; I nearly became bulimic when I was younger because of a personal family relationship in my household that convinced me that my body wasn't, in their eyes, perfect. Every time I spoke to the person and had to see them, I would get criticism for my looks and it made me depressed and feel like I wasn't worth anyone's time unless I "earned" the perfect body shape from practically abusing myself. I wrote about bulimia now because I was nearly one of the unlucky few that could have become bulimic because of an abusive relationship in my family.

Pro eating disorder pages promote self harm and abuse and I just absolutely love how they talk about how they don't want people to become like them but all you're doing is romanticising something uglier than you're trying to make it look like. Having bulimia or anorexia won't make you beautiful; it makes you look nearly dead.

Your skin won't be flawless and without acne, you're gonna have greyish skin from lack of nutrition and you'll have bad acne.

You won't have a beautiful body type where you've got the perfect weight, you're going to actually look like a skeleton and you're never going to accept the weight you're at even if you're at the point where you lose any more weight you'll be hospitalized.

You will never feel accomplished with what you achieve with the disorder. Trust me.

To promote such things is like buying someone a coffin and setting their funeral up for them earlier than when they really need it. So if you truly cared about other people's views on their bodies you would be promoting all body types not ones that are dangerously unhealthy. You would tell girls and boys that the true perfection they want so badly is one where they can be themselves with a real smile on their faces.

Another thing for the PSA

Never EVER invalidate other's opinions. I've been in an extremely unhealthy friendship I just ended a few days ago because they continuously invalidated my life experience by saying they've lived through worse in their life. You should never do this to someone because everyone copes with situations differently.

Sure, you've had a rough life but that doesn't mean you should put others down when they try to talk about how rough their life has been as well. You're no better than them. Never hold yourself higher than others because it makes those who have suffered just as much as you feel like they're worthless. You should also never expect people to owe you anything in life. If you go through life with this mindset, the moment you step into adulthood you're going to be eaten alive by the big fish out their because the fact is that you earn what you deserve in life.

You can be born into the most poverty stricken family and still rise up from it to become someone who has a stable job with a steady income and a loving family. Many people have come out from the worst situations by simply believing in their own talents and they've made something of themselves. Never expect life to give you free handouts because you, yourself, have to earn them through hard work.

No one, not even people who have bullied you, abused you, made you hate yourself, owes you a thing. You owe it to yourself to prove everyone wrong and prove to yourself that you do matter.

You owe it to yourself to work for the things you were deprived from at a young age.

Moral of this PSA: don't do something to another person without consent, don't promote self harm/abuse, and don't sit back and try to have other's give you free handouts because you need to work hard to give yourself the life you've always wanted.

If you have questions about the story or even this PSA please leave them in the comments. I love y'all, never forget that :))

I'll always have my DMS open if you need somewhere to go to vent, I'm a friendly smol bean. Also, if you do run pro eating accounts unfollow me because I don't appreciate your account and I strongly believe you're a dick.
