Transforming and Managing Anxiety: I. The Nature of Containment
Transforming and Managing Anxiety: I. The Nature of Containment
In a previous essay, I have identified the multiple challenges that face us in the mid-21st Century. I have also noted the nature of anxiety that is generated by these challenges and the processes engaged to transform (metabolize) this anxiety and allow members of a society to manage and often even reduce the anxiety. This is being done so that the challenges can be addressed in a successful…

would you say you are more of a twitch or grace. or are they like both hemispheres of your brain
this is such a Loaded Question are you trying to psychoanalyse me, anon
i'm kidding but in Seriousness-i think it's impossible to make an oc who doesn't have at least a little bit of you in them!! (no matter how unfortunate that is sometimes) simultaneously they are both hemispheres of my brain and also so very different from me, somehow
they both get my love of the sea. twitch gets my terrible adhd, one track mind + total inability to Not know something once the question is in my brain
grace gets my complete lack of swag & nonexistent social skills. you're welcome grace😌
#inquiries#Anonymous#this made me laugh thank you anon FHGBJHGHVG always an interesting one to think about >:3#if anything twitch is far more of a “wow i wish i was like That” oc. except maybe not really. just the confidence & gender anyway#and also not getting seasick. it'd be cool to have that#fredspeaks#ty for the ask!! always much appreciated :D

Now I'm curious, what kinds of gifts would is-ot like? Even if Fodder doesn't make much I could see them getting is-ot something small maybe and vice versa
really, anything he can use to decorate himself. he'd decorate his chassis + screens with a bunch of tacky stickers and his walls with LIVE LAUGH LOVE-style furniture. real suburbia nightmare type stuff. he thinks it's very charming. it's hideous.
also as for fodder, um. it's complicated
drones aren't employees. they're prisoners with long sentences forced into (very hazardous) labor by their government. most of their day is spent maintaining IS-OT. their greatest gift is quality time, i suppose.
#not high quality time. but quality time nonetheless. just two dudes bonding over how much they hate the people trapping them#fodder's gifted an old mp3 player by a bloodbag at one point though! the music on it sucks but they appreciate it nonetheless#they share it with IS-OT. like two middle schoolers sharing earbuds on the bus#inquiries#peppergoji#maifesting a 'GOD BLESS THIS MESS' sign in IS-OT's central processing room#tthw

hi im sending an ask again
i've been thinking about the jeff fight. yknow they won because of their stupidity. they wouldn't have won if they had known who the other was. because jeff wouldn't have been so absolutely bamboozled by this. like if they had more than one combined braincell (or yknow read the news) they wouldn't have won. you made this funny little thing plot relevant in a second way and i can't stop thinking about that
also i read the hero power thing. grian's spiderman. he's spiderman except he's a bird that got bitten by a radioactive human. he's humanbird. also. his and pearl's species. "Whatever is funny and plot relevant." cub fell out of the sky. Prime is an emo printer. i love this. i love all of it
also i haven't read the rest of the series yet but i read the summarys/tags. uh. evil xisuma (2)?? excuse me? EXCUSE ME??? (am so excited to read that)
also that one scene
oh my god i started reading the rest of the masterpost while looking for wormman to make the meme and now i have more to say.
i forgot to say how much i love jrumbot. and the shrek squad. its beautiful
the post about etho's power awakening. just. the first drawing. i dont even know what to say just look at it. its beautiful
okay i need to stop talking now
I'M SO GLAD YOU ENJOY!!! it's always an honor to see my silly small and fun details get noticed in such a profound way so i really thank you for your words!! it means a lot to me as a writer and a creator :']]]]]
#seriously i cant express how much i appreciate this#birdhouse inquiries#vdhau#vdhau talk#void duo hero au#angelonasher tag

i know that whfagt is basically crack, but all that multiverse breaking stuff with the two si-ocs lampshading comic book nonsense and pretty much hacking it kinda makes me think of superboy prime. which. ive never really read any comic of, but the few things ive heard of about him still haunt me. hes still a kryptonian baby adopted by kents, but in a universe where superman and heroes are fictional comic book characters??? he punched the universe so hard he retconned jason's death???? which then reminds me of gwenpool from marvel, which was honestly a pretty good story exploring an isekai comic book situation, the meta stuff, and the existential shit that it implies.
which then made me realize that i just assumed that korvin is an si-oc that got isekai-ed to the dc universe. got carried away bc i used to read your mdzs fic dbd. but how would i know, we're in dick's pov. maybe i'll figure it out in the korvin pov interlude, maybe not.
is whfagt crack, though? 🤔
haha of course we're just having fun! yeah!
=
it's only as serious and as deep as you'd want to read it. @rozaceous and i make no attempt to obscure how far we go to ensure consistency and logic in our writing because we're incapable of not doing that
+ my whole spiel (which again, might ruin the levity of some of my 'fun' fics) about SI and my particular approach to SI fics -> i write because there's a concept i want to examine that i consider unexplored and the SI is the specific tool for it. it's usually something that grips me, so ofc i'd take it seriously.
=
(the superboy prime thing sounds interesting...)
=
korvin is indeed an si-oc isekai'd in, that's in the summary + tags. in fact, my last three/four characters are the same si in different circumstances
(i always say si-oc bc like. y'all don't know me, not really, so what does that matter to you guys? si is so if anyone questions something that's my particular wheelhouse i can big stick "um ackshually" it. it's basically an oc that has a very extensive character building sheet spanning 20+ years, think of it like that lol)
dick's pov is the outsider observation on how fucking weird a transmirgrator would look, even if they try to blend in, especially if they can't hide behind things like zyx with southern cultural differences + cultivator nonsense, kagami playing into being an airhead genius basketball player, lwh behind gusu lan's reputation and hidden away due to her gender and place in the clan
=
look, behind every joke is a grain of truth. jokes can't be funny or poignant if they had no contrast, no grounding in reality
#as i am answering this roz and i are getting so serious and horrible in the club lmao#y'all don't even know. be grateful we don't unleash the really serious stuff#maryallenc-tries-to-write#inquiry#on tpac#writing#also: thanks for being a long-time reader! even if you fell off the dbd train now i still appreciate it

may we all be blessed with the same amount of confidence possessed by the moving company employee who drove the truck for my interstate move 9 months ago, and who texted me today to ask me out for cocktails and pool while he is in town on a job
#just to clarify#I have not spoken to him since the move#he lives in the state I moved FROM not the state I moved TO#maybe when you are an interstate mover you are like an ancient mariner#a woman in every port and so forth#and when I say 'in town'#I mean 'in a town an hour and a half away but technically in the same state as me'#his audacity was so profound I wasn't even mad#just impressed and mildly baffled#I told him I am going camping three states away and am unavailable#(I have noticed in the past two or three years men are becoming more direct#possibly this is because we are all starting to realize as we age that being coy is merely a waste of time#I appreciate it#a direct inquiry permits a direct response)

I'm not that anon, but if you could tag pre-op trans or trans characters still in the body they had at birth (such as afab)? I'm a pre-op trans guy and it really triggered my dysphoria bad to see the last post you made. Maybe just tag it as AFAB?
I had an inkling this was what it was about. Do you walk outside and see someone in an afab body and get dysphoric? I feel as though that is an issue that you should work on for your own sake as opposed to telling a non-op afab artist that work celebrating his own body type is triggering to you.
I’m very sorry if this is rude, but I am afraid your dysphoria is not my responsibility, and confident loving non-op trans bodies in my work is a specific statement against these ways of thinking.
I am not comfortable tagging the female body due to this. I hope that makes sense, and my apologies, again. I hope you are able to find recovery from your problems.
#Inquiry#I’m sorry if this is a really rude answer: I have worked past dysphoria for years and come out with an appreciation for my body —#and I hope other people can do the same.#If you do not like my work I suggest you scroll past it….

How Engaging Emergence Can Drive Business Growth
Engaging with emergence isn’t just a fascinating concept – it’s a strategic business move. It’s about understanding that individual parts have properties, but they create something different, often greater when they come together. https://business901.com/blog1/how-engaging-emergence-can-drive-business-growth/

for the writer asks
1. What is a piece of symbolism in your fic?
(Ask game is here!)
Man I had trouble narrowing down my selection for this ask. I don't necessarily have a lot of "symbols", per se, but I do have a TON of running motifs.
I'll elaborate a little on the one I've already mentioned in an individual post- the fixing of broken mechanisms.
Because, yeah, the first layer of the symbolism is pretty on-the-nose. Unit MS-1 is a mechanism, and it's broken, both literally due to the glitching in its processor, and metaphorically as a character. Unit MS-1 fixing other mechanisms is a symbol for the journey it's on the fix itself.
But this mechanical prowess is also a symbol for personhood in that, well, it's a hobby! It's the first thing that Unit MS-1 ever does that wasn't a demand from someone else and wasn't reaction to desperate circumstance. The repair of another object is the first thing that Unit MS-1 has ever done purely for its own satisfaction. This repair is a significant moment within the story, a sign that Unit MS-1 is not just going to sit back and allow life to throw it around anymore. It's going to rebuild its narrative, so to speak.
In the future, Unit MS-1 is going to repair a doorway, as a symbol of repairing a connection with someone whom it upsets. That'll be fun.
#complex inquiries#thank you for this ask!!! I appreciate it#I've got boatloads of repeating motifs in this fic. feel free to send more asks about it if you'd like

For Chenford week, for day one can it be like a missing scene from an episode of s5? I have a one shot of Tim and Lucy talking about him finding her when she was trapped in that old building
I don't see why not! Day one is really just season five focused so as long as it's s5-based & canon compliant then it fits the prompt.
#that-fandom-writer#ask#q&a#event help#chenfordweek23#also i appreciate your inquiry but please be patient with us for questions! especially if asked late at night lol#no need to send stuff multiple times :) we'll get to it during the day!

(If you don’t mind from an OC’s perspective… this is from @tales-from-the-neath btw, Tumblr doesn’t allow asks from sideblogs yet)
A letter arrives on your doorstep, written in an elegant script.
———————————
Good day, newly descended!
You may not know me yet, but I hope over time that might change!
My name is Nyx Darkhelm, and I like to serve as a kind of guide for newer people. Er… I hope you don’t mind my… unconventional look. Being in the Neath turned me into a fox. But that’s not important!
Perhaps you could send a Calling Card if you would like to get in touch later! Or, I could do so myself, if you so choose.
Anyways, I’d best be brief… it’s d__manly hard to focus when there are two other people sharing your home, one a “detective,” the other a former Navy Captain.
I hope to see you soon!
Cheers,
- Nyx Darkhelm
give him a minute he's got a lot to process (but when he's recovered, a conversation would be very much appreciated (especially with a navy captain))
( @tales-from-the-neath )
#sorry this is very silly#also hello! :D calling cards would always be welcomed#thank u for being so welcoming i really appreciate it ♥#fred draws#inquiries#tales-from-the-neath#grace#also i dont mind asks from ocs at all theyre very fun :D

[DRAGON CHARMS] good luck and strength — two qualities he'll openly admit alhaitham has never been lacking in. nonetheless it's caught his eye, and so the transaction is swiftly made. kaveh slips the charm into his pocket and hurries off before a certain roommate spots him by the stand.
hours later and kaveh's running late to dinner. though arriving breathless, he offers no explanation and plops himself onto the chair (surely the other is used to it at this point). the night unfolds as it normally does — good food and drinks, analyses of the day's findings, an argument or two peppered in for good measure. and of course, a meal is never complete without having to sit through some sort of insufferable commentary.
( "every single wish, no matter how small, is worth seeing to fruition" are the words spoken at lantern rite. "what are yours for this year?" he wonders, though the question goes unspoken).
alas. as they stand to leave, kaveh slides something across the table. again, no explanation is offered. the architect trusts that his roommate has read up on the customs & beliefs of the celebration — surely he can do his own deducing. archons help them both if alhaitham can't manage even that. "that's for you, by the way." kaveh says as he turns to leave, waving a hand dismissively. "you don't have to open it here. actually, it's better if you don't. now hurry up or else we'll miss the fireworks."
Received: Modified Dragon Charm
What was once a traditional charm from Liyue has been carefully hammered into a surprisingly lightweight metal bookmark. Somehow, the original carving remains intact. The piece has been masterfully fitted into a silver frame, topped off with a matching chain and tassel. Though beautifully intricate in its design, every inch remains practical for the user's convenience. On the side of the bookmark, one may find a small lid that flips open to store a thin pen for annotations. Should the reader ever find himself in a pinch, he may press the discreet button fitted at the top to reveal a portable light for emergency late-night reading.
No matter how much he aggravates me sometimes, Kaveh has never failed to impress me with his creativity and ingenuity. In that aspect, I believe, we have always been alike: when we can't find a solution, we make one. Before, it had inspired in me the kind of respect a junior would offer his senior, directing me to choose him as my research partner. It still reminds me every now and then that for all his faults, Kaveh does possess the wisdom that we so value and pursue, for why else would he receive a Dendro Vision?
First the new year, then my birthday, now Lantern Rite. Either he's in a particularly good mood, or he's gotten a very good commission lately, or both, because this is downright spoiling. I'm not usually the object of Kaveh's generosity, haven't been for some time, and it's like looking in a dusty mirror, being showered with sentiment after so long. (He would deny it, no doubt, but with how his personal language towards me has shifted, it can't be interpreted as anything else.) So for lack of anything else to do, I shrug and slip the small parcel inside my pouch. "Suit yourself. If fireworks are more interesting than my reaction, then so be it." Thank the Archons for my earpieces and their noise-cancelling setting, otherwise I'd be in for an evening of auditory pain.
It isn't until I return to my hotel room that I remember the unopened gift, and I sit down on my bed to unwrap the little package. At first glance, it appears to be a bookmark version of the draconic charms purveyed on the harbor streetsーoh. Oh. Is this why he was late to dinner?
It's times like these that I remember just how well we know each other, and that we were best friends, once.
(Were? Are? Do I tolerate him the way someone would a reliable old mirror, do I keep him near because I rely on him to understand and reflect me?)
The bookmark wastes no space nor function: a slender lid reveals a compartment for a thin stylus, and a small button activates a reading light. It is form and function fitted perfectly together like two puzzle pieces, gifted in the spirit of the festival. The engraved visage of the dragon proves a delight to my fingertips, and I trace the design while noting the craftsmanship. This will get tremendous usage, but then, Kaveh has always given me things I will use.
(... He better not have spent his red envelope on this.)
#🌿 inquiry form received (asks).#🌿 spiral ascent (events).#ghlanternrite2024#🌿 altruistic architect (kaveh).#aesthetecomplex#//kaveh stop giving him nice things challenge level: impossible!#//fr tho he always gives such good gifts and haitham appreciates every single one!!
