Emotional Policing

When someone seems intent on telling you to stop feeling a specific emotion. Usually negativity because you're "bringing everyone's mood down" or something similar. Even when you hide your emotions in public and say one offhand comment about how you really feel,there will most likely be someone there to enact Emotional Policing. You're expected to change yourself despite how you truly feel,despite how many facts you have to back up your emotions (which you shouldn't need because that notion seeks to invalidate emotional response). Emotional Policing is everywhere.

Example one:
Todd: "Yeah,Project 2025 is going to hurt a lot of marginalized people and minorities. I'm worried my friends will die."
Bill: "Oh my god,stop being such a fucking doomer Todd! Just relax,everything will be okay."
Todd: "Oh yeah,I should totally 'just relax' when the people I know are going to be hurt or killed. Fuck you and your Emotional Policing,Bill."

Example two:
Jerry: *Expresses even one negative emotion.*
Tom: "SHUT UP YOU DOOMER PESSIMIST NEGATIVE NANCY DOOMER DOOMER DOOMER! BE HAPPY GODDAMNIT DON'T DRAG DOWN THE MOOD OF EVERYONE AROUND YOU STOP IT"
Jerry: "Fuckin' Emotional Policing.."

Emotional support insomnia

Enjoying the late night instead of sleeping. Staying up much later than is smart or practical in order to claw back a sense of self and autonomy. Anti capitalist insomnia.

My emotional support insomnia kept me up until 4am reading fanfic. I’m so tired but it was totally worth it.

Emotional Hard Drive

When something or someone is encrypted in your soul. They are a part of you, for better or worse, ON your Emotional Hard Drive.

Damon: Bro, could you stop deleting our group chats, it is really annoying and makes me feel unimportant.

Brett: Group chat messages are temporary, you are on my Emotional Hard Drive.

Damon: Thanks man, still annoying tho.

emotional ejaculation

The art of spewing your feelings, with no particular point of interest. Typically, this performance occurs prior to utter inebriation.

Usually, Bob is a pretty quiet guy. After a few too many shots last night though, Suzy became the target of his emotional ejaculation.

Emotion

That's one of the most common one.

Hym "It's either emotion or I'm a robot. It's always one of the two with you people. But you know it's neither. You know exactly how much money other people are making off of this and you don't care who it is as long as it isn't me. You're stealing from me to try and prove a point that you will never make. And you don't care as long as I have everything stole from me. It isn't my shortcomings. You want me to have to think differently to suceed and I'm not going to. It's using theft to be the thought police. What you need to do is kill yourself because not a single person is benefiting from this with you being like this and ME BEING LIKE THIS IS BENEFITING EVERYONE. Except for me. I don't need to change for that to change. You might want that. But only because YOU KNOW I WON'T. And if it doesn't change, I will pick a random person out of the crowd and I will change their lives forever."
