Self control isnt the same as self preservation,though some confuse the two. Self control is what keeps you from endangering yourself and the people around you. People who lack self control like to think of themselves as living dangerously or on the edge, which is not entirely off, but there's a difference between doing something risky on purpose and knowing what the risks beforehand, and wandering/stumbling your way into it and not knowing why. The same people who brag about living dangerously are the first to want credit for being cautious, they call themselves cautious every time they gain control of themselves, which is something other people are doing all the time, using self-control. It's like being honest, nobody should get credit for being honest, responsible, or using self-control and good judgment. Self preservation is doing anything it takes to survive, like a snake or a reptile, without any thought about anything else.
The girl didn't have any self control, but had plenty of self preservation.

It’s always ‘wrist reveal’ or ‘your just doing it for attention’ but never ‘are you okay, I’m here for you’ it shows how selfish people can be, if you see fresh cuts on a persons body, ask them if they’re okay. If you are dealing with self harm right now, reach out to someone you trust. You are not alone
Anonymous: ‘WRIST REVEAL’
Me: ‘HEY! That’s not funny okay’
Anonymous: ‘don’t get so pressed’
Me: ‘ignore them, how are you? I’m here for you if you want to talk, you are NOT alone’
Because self harm is nothing to joke about <3

a person without a permanent identity.
Today it is impossible to be not only a liberal or communist, but also black lesbian middle class living in Ohio - each of us has to deal with liquid self. For such a person, any repression of the language - no matter how well-intentioned it was not dictated by - it's just an obstacle in the way of rebuilding itself daily. Anyone who wants to build a unique, albeit liberal world, pose a threat to me as an unsteady being, which today can be boorish dork, tomorrow - a humanist, and after tomorrow - an ashtray with elements of BDSM.
