Olive989's definitions
An asthmatic baby dragon that wheezes small puffs of fire. Just wants to make friends, but ends up accidently burning stuff down, when he forgets his inhaler. The last time was at a furniture store. His friend was really looking forward to that sofa set. It was so soft before it was crispy.
Puff the magic dragon is seriously over having asthma.
Puff the magic dragon wishes he got his name listening to Bob Marley and smoking a bowl instead. He thinks that sounds nice.

Get the Vertically Frustratedmug. A dark horse. An onion that won't make you cry. A walking contradiction in all the best ways. Shy around new people, but has a presence whenever walking into a room. She has a wonderful child like playfulness and sincerity, in spite of surviving terrible things. Incredibly creative and gifted in a variety of arts, but also able to approach subjects with the methodical objectivity of a scientist. Finds the prospect of asking out a cute guy absolutely terrifying, but can keep calm and go into "save the day" mode in life or death situations.
A Christiana is someone you want on your side when shit hits the fan.
Some people talk a big game. Christianas don't talk at all. Seeing what they do, is like watching a fictional trope of the quiet genius or secret badass, come to life. Certain things come so intuitively for them....it's like they're not even aware of what they're capable of.

Get the Christianamug. (1.) When someone tries to hold a contest on whose had it worse, as if suffering was a cereal box with a prize at the bottom.. And not in fact, a depressing reality with no winners.
(2.) Employing mental gymnastics to try and cement the message that your suffering is the only suffering that counts.
A suffering olympics can be held in either a one on one scenario (where the person directly compares their own suffering)...Or it could be a context where the person compares first world to third world problems, and individual vs. Systemic, (always as if one cancels out the other. )

People who try to turn other people's pain into the suffering olympics, usually have one of two goals:
(1.) They're purely seeking personal vindication, because they're too dumb to realize this isn't a contest anyone should want to win.
(2.) They're trying to police someone else's feelings, boundaries or expectations, after being called out for bad behavior. (I.E. I'm not that bad because I had it so much worse growing up. (Or) How dare you even suggest I modify my behavior in any way! Aren't you aware there are children in Africa dying of AIDS?!)

Get the Suffering Olympicsmug. This is a shout out to all the young eagles, hawks, falcons and vultures, (birds of prey) who are afraid of heights. And find themselves praying for the courage to push their little taloned feet off the tree and into the pretty blue sky.
You can do it!
You can do it!
I want to live up to my bird of prey potential, but right now I'm just a bird of pray.

Get the Bird of Praymug. The burden of human consciousness.
Thoughts come in a whole universe of flavors. But most of the words that categorize thought end in either"tion" or "sion".
Some tion/sion examples:
Rumination, premeditation, hesitation, deliberation, consideration, obsession, contemplation, compulsion, conception, introspection, repression, categorization, recognition, reconfiguration, Memorization,
Other: Fantasize, daydream, equating, misconstrue,

Thought can be enjoyable if you've got something to do. Other times I wish I could shut the whole process off.

Get the Thoughtmug. (1.) The pursuit we owe to ourselves and the world.
Everyone is a prisoner of something. Current physical circumstances. Past trauma. A limit of belief or imagination. An insecurity. A lie we believe. A truth we ignore. A fear of failure. A voice in our heads that dictates what we can and cannot do. Expectations of family or society. Disability. Chronic Illness. Addiction. Grief. Shame. A general world weariness or exhaustion. A locked idea that the world we've known is the only world there is, or ever could be.
We praise the P.O.W. who escapes an enemy/internment camp. We praise the addict who escapes their addiction and chooses sobriety. But in so many other contexts escape is considered juvenile, a product of weakness or immaturity. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
(2.) To imagine something better for yourself or the world in a fictional setting, until you have the courage or ability to make it real.
No P.O.W. escapes an internment camp without imagining a vision of freedom powerful enough it spits in the face of their current tortured and starved reality. Equally so, an addict who imagines a reality in which they are sober, is often imagining something they think is impossible.
Escape gives us permission to think limitlessly, even when we think everything in our life limits us. Because it doesn't ask what's likely or possible, or what the odds are. It just asks, "What would your reality look like if you had it your Way?"

Nobody who ever dared to dream the impossible, and made it real, started off thinking it could happen.
Escape is the birthplace of the things we dare to dream.
