Emotional regulation is a very important & necessary skill to practice for growth, handling difficult situations/ people/ interactions, and better protecting your own peace. It’s often hard to stop & assess your feelings before acting, especially when you’ve endured certain traumas or spent too much time on the internet where it’s easy to get upset over basic misunderstandings, but once you make the effort & remain consistent, you’ll see how fast your life & approach to future encounters improves for the better.

Hiiiiii! As a trusted sci-fi enjoyer, what are your thoughts on enders game? I’ve never read it, but I see a lot of people put it on their essentials lists. I know the author is very mormon, so I’m just if it’s still worth a read or not.
oh goodness. it's been probably a decade since i read ender's game! my friend was obsessed with the series at the time and so before the movie came out i read it and honestly hm. i remember being SHOCKED by the twist like. SHOOK to my CORE, the intergalactic implications the ramifications the DRAMA. the story itself was mostly "meh" but this was before i started to really Love scifi (didn't happen til i was around 15-ish?) and hated reading scifi novels, so i can't say if my view is the most reflective of the quality! i had no idea he was a mormon though omg? odds are theres shit i missed at the time. im pretty sure that it and its successive novels are pretty staunchly anti-war and anti-genocide (like not even subtly) which is why i was initially confused as to why the marines sometimes have their recruits read it ? cant think of what message *they* get out of it considering it ends with a child being traumatized after being manipulated and used by the military (like???). but anyways! this is all to say that conceptually i fucks with it and upon reflection what i can remember was very cool and fascinating, but i cant in good conscience say either way because i dont have a solid view :pensive emoji:

A date with the truth
Hi. I did not want to come. I mean I want to come if you know what I mean ;)
Sorry, lately my humour has been quite juvenile and I don’t have a handle on it. I do not know if it’s because I am finally letting myself not be so serious all the time or because I am horny all the time. I think, it might just be a 70:30.
But, yes, I did not want to show up, I was going to stand you up. Yet again. But you don’t waver, do you? Even though I blew you off at least 360 out of 365 days last year. You stand your ground and you do not care for validation or visitors or me.
I am trying — but saying this is not enough anymore. I know. So, what else do I do? I am spending $$ on therapy and signing up for what is going to be a long and difficult process of working on understanding myself and my behaviour and my thought patterns. I thought writing would have helped with that — with self awareness but it seems like the only thing writing has helped with is solidifying my delusional narratives and making me seem attractive to people but mostly men.
Okay, fine. I’ll stop being a shit and blaming writing. Writing has been good for me. Writing has been the only thing that lets me be. Not going to romanticize it further. But I know this too. Without writing, I am a volcano that dies of unreleased pressure. Is that a thing? Can volcanoes have an internal, unreleased explosion and just die? I should have paid more attention in Geography classes in middle school — maybe I would have known what to tell my friend when an earthquake tremor is felt instead of being so absolutely useless. Why am I so useless when it comes to functional, real life, logistical things?
Ugh, okay. No, that’s not true, either. I am the one who is essentially my family’s accountant and assistant and tech person — taking care of all banking work, booking flights, and fixing phone issues. So, I am good at logistics, actually. In the areas I have been exposed to. But if you ask me for directions or to change a tire or to tell you how the name of the tree in the lane in my home I will be clueless. Is that okay?
The truth. The truth. The truth.
How do I give it to you?
How do I give it to myself?
The truth is...I don’t know. can we do a second date? give me some time? there are so many things on my mind. I’ll pay for the coffee both times. Will you see me again? In a civil way? I do not want you to slap me in the most tragic of ways at the most unexpected of times. can you be a little patient with me? Just a little more? Yes? Thank you!

Well damn
Still not sure I know how best to use this site, especially considering the heat death of Twitter, the oxygen deprivation of Instagram, and the lack of personal direction I have with art and design. I'm trying to do to many things at once, like always, but I'm hoping I can figure it out soon.
