I'm not sure why crispy chickpeas aren't everywhere as like a top ADHD snack because they are:
Delicious (so you will actually seek them out/want to eat them)
Crispy (a good stim for texture people)
Easy to make (super hands off, they just roast for like 30 minutes while you do something else)
Healthy (it's literally just beans! Such protein!)
Versatile (you can switch up the seasonings if you get tired of one flavor; you can also put them on/in a bunch of different dishes)
Cheap AF & forgiving of your timeline (a can of chickpeas won't go bad in your pantry if you don't have the energy to make something with them this week)
So here's the resippy.
Cooked chickpeas (I usually use one can)
Olive oil
Salt
Paprika or curry powder or rosemary or your favorite spice (optional)
Steps:
Drain and rinse your chickpeas.
Dump them onto a towel or paper towel and rub them dry a bit.
Remove any loose skins. If you're feeling extra you can remove all the skins; this makes them slightly crispier. I do not find this to be worth it.
Put them on a baking sheet (lined with parchment paper if you want to save yourself some cleanup). Toss with a drizzle of olive oil, a generous pinch or two of salt, and your seasoning.
Roast in your oven. I usually do 400°F for about 25-30 minutes, but this is pretty forgiving and you can do 425 for 20 minutes or whatever you want to do
Taste a chickpea. It should have an audible crunch. If it doesn't, put it back in until it does
When done, taste for seasoning and add any additional salt or seasoning you want. Proceed to devour them.
These are best fresh, but I still like them later on (if I don't eat them all right away). Store in an airtight container for a couple days at room temp or a few days in the fridge.
Enjoy!!

you know what, one of the biggest problems rsd causes in my everyday life is that it makes me incapable of predicting how other people will respond to criticism.
like, i'm an editor. my job is writing constructive feedback. but i also have rsd, so i have an intense emotional reaction whenever i receive feedback, no matter how well-meant or carefully worded it is. which is something i've been working on! hard! in my own life! and i'm maybe a little bit better at it--those reactions dont go away (because of fucking course they don't, can nothing ever be easy) but i'm better at just fuckin. riding them out and coming back to whatever i was working on once the Devastating Shame And Sorrow has run its course. HOWEVER. there are Two Big Problems here wrt my Job, which are as follows:
I do not have an accurate internal barometer for What Will Make My Client Feel Bad in terms of criticism, because Everything Makes Me Feel Bad. it feels like i should be able to trust my instincts but my instincts are the enemy of concise feedback because they read any comment i leave on the work and go "oh no that will make him feel bad enough to disengage with the work entirely, you need to add a full paragraph of explanation in order to circumvent that. I'm working on it, i think i'm getting there, but it's something that feels like it should be automatic and it's fuckin annoying that it isnt.
There Are Other People With RSD In The World And Some Of Them Need Their Papers Edited. i know this for a fact, so i am feel even more Adrift when trying to find the right tone for my comments, because i simply Don't Know whether i should be writing for a Normal Person with a Normal Threshold For Criticism or a person more like me (but not enough like me for that to be simple, bc everyone's rsd manifests in different ways and is triggered by different things.)
and both of those things. make my life. so much harder

Tiny doodles of Pidge (my Tav) from act 1 and early act 2. Her hair changed for each act so it’s easy to tell where they are in their journey by how disheveled she looks.
Pidge is a wild magic sorcerer with an affinity for soul magic. She can see the color of others souls (I don’t consider this game breaking, but also it’s my brain baby so idc if that’s possible in the 5e rule set) there are some supplemental fan spells and materials for adding soul magic and flavor and there’s the soul knife subclass rogue which I think was a Critical Roll addition? Ugh, look at me spreading misinformation on the internet.
OC lore below the cut.
Content warning: abusive relationship discussion (parent and child), implied sexual and physical abuse.
Anyway, Pidge grew up Rapunzel like with a very controlling and narcissistic “mother knows best” mom. The only reason her mother even had a child was to be a “spare” body for when her mother succumbed to a fatal illness (and to help her mother transfer souls into soul coins and gems to be bartered in the 9 hells. Lots of devil’s work)
Pidge’s mother is controlling to the extent that Pidge was not allowed to learn anything about her wild magic and spent much of her life warded to keep her from accessing the weave. “For her own safety,” of course. The only magic she was allowed and praised for learning was soul magic, and this was to help her mother with her research into immortality and with business ventures.
Pidge was also used as “entertainment” for her mother’s important guests. Basically anything that her mother could get from Pidge, she would try to use to her benefit.
About 3-5months before the beginning of the game, Pidge escaped and crafted an amulet to protect her body and soul from being hijacked by her mother.
She is the only member of the bg3 origin crew who did not lose skills when she was infected by the tadpole. She didn’t really have skills to begin with. Much to Gale’s dismay, she learns basically on the fly and does a lot of “firebolt first, ask questions later.” To her, practical experience is much more important than book learning. Really she has adhd and can’t rote memorize for the life of her.
She identifies with Karlach early on as they both have had dealings with the hells, although Pidge is just beginning to understand the ramifications of her mother’s hellish business of soul coin forging.
Pidge is also very afraid in act 1 of Gale finding her out as she was told to keep her soul magic affinity secret by her mother. In truth the stigma for soul magic is not so bad, but it was a manipulation technique to keep Pidge from explaining to any magic practitioners what they were working on and how her mother planned to use the research to steal Pidge’s body.
Her mother is still hunting her down, so Pidge needs a permanent solution or soul barrier to keep herself from her mother “living vicariously” through her.
Bodily autonomy is stupid important to her. She rejects the Emperor the moment he tells her to “embrace her ilithid potential” for fear of losing herself. She is self conscious to the extreme and keeps notes on her newfound companions likes and dislikes so she can keep them happy. She had a legitimate panic attack when both Gale and Astarion wanted the necromancy of Thay because, according to her calculations, they would disapprove if the other was the recipient.
She fell for Astarion after rather disliking him for a good ten day or two. He won her over by being actually reliable in scrapes and being really funny. She can’t remember the last time anyone made her laugh, so she loves the feeling. They are the two smooth brained members of the group. Similar brain cell count.
This ended up being a lot longer than I thought it would be. If you made it to the end, then you will have made it to the end! *salutes in Barcus Wroot*

hi guys i gotta be autistic again, heres some random tf2 headcanons, mainly scout bc im hyperfixated on him >_<
- scout is obviously very flexible but i think when he was younger he regularly did gymnastics and such ...
- to add on scout stretches and goes on runs regularly so he can keep himself flexible and agile :)
- i think scout has restless leg syndrome and has trouble sleeping often (<- projecting)
- scout drools in his sleep and does not stay still. he kicks and moves in his sleep like a dog yk
- ive already said i hc scout is autistic and has adhd but i think he has safefoods too!! i havent decided exactly what but i think its probably one of his ma's homemade meals
- i think scout has trouble reading social cues and picking up on emotions and such. he also interprets things wrong like 24/7. you have to be very blatant and obvious with him otherwise he will NEVER pick up on tiny little cues
- scout is super clumsy and very fidgety. he has definitely fallen face first onto the ground because he tripped over his feet. when it comes to his work he obviously puts more focus into it so hes not as clumsy but you know :) i think it would be silly seeing him running super fast and then BOOM his shoe hits a rock and he tumbles forward like an idiot
- scout is the type to pretend hes not tired when he really is. you can see him falling asleep in his chair and you go "scout?" and he jumps up and is like "huh?" and if you say he was falling asleep he'll insist he wasnt. he usually drinks a bunch of bonk when he realizes hes getting sleepy anyway
- sniper has a cookbook from his mother that he kept, and he makes some of the recipies every so often when hes in a bad mood to cheer himself up
- sniper bites his nails but they grow back really fast, and they always are a little sharp (like claws)
- in contrast, scout lets his grow out and paints them. he literally doesnt care if anyone says its girly he'll tell you to fuck off
- scout may or may not have painted medics nails and they match, but only scout knows because he always has his gloves on (i love mediscout!!!)
- medic is a bit awkward about pda but scout LOVES pda. he literally doesnt care
- scout is terrified of letting medic do experiments on him so medic makes sure not to even like. mention it.
- scout is actually pretty good with medics doves, but hes clumsy (as mentioned) so sometimes he scares them really bad or accidentally pulls out a feather and he always feels horrible when it happens
i have more... if anyone is curious... blehhh

MAGNETAR'S CHICKEN SOUP
I'm home sick today so fuck it. Chicken soup recipie. If you are a professional chef, look away now. If you have ADHD and only intermittently have enough brain-juice to cook, like me, this recipe is for you. This makes a fuck-ton of soup that can be individually frozen for later, which is really handy because it makes many filling tasty meals with minimal effort.
YOU WILL NEED:
1 entire pre-cooked chicken from the rack at the grocery store. The whole thing. Don't eat it while it's on the counter. 1-2 entire white onions. Depends how much of an onion fan you are. I am a huge onion fan.
3-4 carrots.
3-4 celery sticks.
3-4 stalks of green onions
A box of ditali pasta and half a box of spaghetti
Spices: Salt, OREGANO, Basil, rosemary, mustard seeds. Optional, or if you're out of mustard seed: coriander.
you'll also need two large pots, and a sieve.
The instructions are long, so they're under the cut.
Chop all vegetables and put them aside on the counter.
Fill the big pot with water and put it on the stove. put the second pot aside.
Cut up the cooked chicken and cut out all the bones. put the bones, skin, and carcass in the pot and start boiling it. Bare minimum you want to boil it for like two hours, but you should really boil it for way longer- you're making stock out of the bones, so the longer you boil, the better. Generally speaking, when the water goes cloudy, you're on the right track.
chop up all the meat and put it aside.
fuck off to go play minecraft/skyrim/actually get some work done/write fic/ whatever while the stock simmers.
Whenever you get bored of waiting, or after enough time has passed, strain the bones out of the stock into the second pot, and KEEP THE WATER. KEEP. THE. WATER. DO NOT DRAIN THE WATER OUT YOU NEED THAT THAT'S LITERALLY YOUR SOUP.
okay, pour that back into your main pot after you have all the bones out. Now toss in all the veg and meat. Salt the water here- you'll need to taste it. When the soup tastes rich and rounded, that's enough. Don't over-salt or you'll wreck it.
okay now toss in all your spices.
If the water level is low, add another glass of water.
Fuck off for another 10-20 minutes, set a timer on your phone while it all cooks. When the onions go clear, you're done.
Toss in the pasta.
Cook for another 10 minutes.
Once the pasta is soft, you're done.
And that's it. That's my soup. I am not a great cook, but I hope this is helpful to...someone.
Enjoy!

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💗
Occupational Hazards has taken up my writing brain for so long that I barely remember what else I’ve written 🥲
Wait, new problem. I’m looking at my ao3 and most of my fics are old and I don’t even like them that much anymore 😭 looking back on old work is always tough but it’s because I’ve improved, right? I hope that’s why.
Occupational Hazards
(7k, Ironstrange, h/c, comedy)
I worked HARD on this one and I’m proud of it. It’s my longest fic at 7k and it’s got 69 kudos right now. My favorite tag on it is “Petplay mention (approved by management)”. It’s a gift fic and the recipient okayed my petplay joke.
2. When you’re drunk, every idea is a good idea
(1k, Tony and Scott, crack-ish)
I had so much fun writing this one but it hasn’t gotten much attention. Uncommon pairing I guess. It’s just Tony and Scott getting drunk and doing dumb shit. It’s fun. Favorite tag: “non-sexual whipped cream”.
3. Is Garlic Bread A Concern?
(3k, Ironstrange, h/c mostly?)
This one’s two years old but it gets extra points for being a vampire fic. For all my obsession with vampire Stephen, I’ve only written one vampire fic. Favorite tags: “Blood, obviously”.
4. Pain’s an old friend
(2k, Ironstrange, h/c)
One of the old ones but I don’t hate it. I mean, two years isn’t really that old but it feels old to me. That’s when I started posting things. This was like, my fourth fic. This one has one of my favorite comments, “I think I found the single most depressing Stephen Strange line ever...”.
5. Ulterior Motives
300, Ironstrange, smut that serves as comedy and is not sexy at all
Did you know that 50% of men over 50 have an enlarged prostate? Do you want to read what I wrote after learning that? Favorite tag: “I want you to remember this when I inevitably climb on my bottom Stephen soapbox”.
You know, when I started posting I thought I’d write a lot of h/c since that’s my favorite thing to read. But I’ve written so many silly little fun things. I have a million h/c wips, so I think it’s because I’m more likely to finish something exciting and funny. Curse my adhd! I can finish fun, quick, entertaining stories much easier, I guess. I get a shiny new crack idea and it takes over my mind. If you catch me writing a long fic it’s safe to assume I’ve been possessed.
Thanks for the ask!! Sorry I’ve been gone lately, I don’t even have a good reason.

So there’s a bit of misinformation going around claiming that Taylor Swift is suing a college student for tracking her jet. This is not the whole story. While I’m the first to admit that Taylor Swift deserves to be criticized for multiple things (including her carbon emissions) this isn't necessarily one of them. Here’s what’s actually happening:
Meet Jack Sweeney. He's not a poor, young college student, which is what many media outlets would have you believe. He's an adult, with an estimated net worth of .5-3 billion, and made the 2024 Forbes 30 under 30 - Consumer Technology list. Notice how all headlines say that "Taylor Swift is suing this college student" to make it seem much worse than it is? It just simply fits their narrative better.
He was not (only) trying to make people aware of her carbon emissions, he was posting her real life location to his 80k followers on twitter. Technically, his twitter does say that his trackings have a 24 hour delay. But still, considering Taylor's many instances of stalking, this is understandably scary. Also, this is not only happening to Taylor herself, but to the people around her as well. Like what happened at Jack Antonoff's rehearsal dinner last year. (Not saying that this is Sweeney's fault, just explaining why Taylor's team would want to protect her and her friends from all kinds of stalking.)
It wasn't a lawsuit, it was a cease and desist. You can read the whole thing here. Yes, a cease and desist is typically followed by a lawsuit if ignored by the recipient, but it is still "just" a warning of potential future legal action.
Also, there has to be ways to track her carbon emissions without posting her location to thousands of people. I know that private jet flights are public information, but it is not easily accessible public information, and him posting her flights to his twitter does put her in a lot of extra danger.
Again, I'm not saying that she doesn't deserve criticism, or that her safety is the only motivation her team has for pursuing this. I'm sure they care about her image as well and don't really want the general public to know just how much carbon emissions she is responsible for. I just wish people would use their media literacy skills before spreading rumors.
(sidenote: I'm sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes or if anything I said didn't make sense. I also know that I don't have all the details (feel free to add any information you have). It's late, I've been at work all day, and I have a headache that's killing me, but my stupid adhd brain won't let me focus on anything other than this so I just have to get it out of my system)

Lost and Found
By Lydia
All of the following items have been brought to The Overseer office for safekeeping until they are claimed. If you recognize one of these items as yours, please visit us to receive your items, or contact us at [email protected]. Lost items will be sent to Twinkly Trash if not picked up after two weeks. Thank you! *Not a real email address.
Item 1: A picture frame This picture frame is made with a gold border with intricate leaf designs, appropriate for the fall season. It was found near Gem’s Elven Village and hums when placed in direct sunlight. Anything placed inside has been mysteriously disintegrated within the next five minutes. The staff has used this as an opportunity to rid their office of all citations given to them from the Office of Unofficial Documentation for being a general public nuisance over the past several months.
Item 2: A bottle of bird medication A bottle of Psittamune APV was found among Grian’s large rocks with a small syringe for administering to presumably very small birds such as parakeets. The bottle has never been opened and sits with the syringe in a plastic bag.
Item 3: A sympathy card This sympathy card has an unknown intended recipient, but the official printed message inside expresses condolences for the passing of one’s grandmother. Inside, several people have signed the card expressing further condolences, with the exception of one person who did not sign their name, who wrote, “Happy Birthday!” instead, in thick letters.
Item 4: A letter from a professor of animation This letter, addressed to a group of college students taking an unknown class, is written by a professor unknown to the staff, signed, “Prof. Lansbury” and delves into the subject of re-animating corpses, rather than focusing on the medium of artistic cartoon animation. The letter expresses caution towards the practice and implores the students to mind their steps carefully. It also asks the students to precede the rituals with the following sentence: “Will a re-animated corpse enjoy the artistic work I have to offer?”
Item 5: A copy of Scattered Minds by Gabor Mate, M.D. This book, centering on the origins and treatment of ADHD, written by Gabor Mate, who himself has ADHD, was found in a Shulker box in Pearl’s alien forest. It is suspected to be an unsuccessful delivery, as delivery instructions are attached, but the name and address label has fallen off. The delivery instructions state, “Please take buttercream pie at the doorstep after dropping off our package. Enjoy!” Though its contents are unharmed, the shulker box was found splattered with alien viscera and human blood.
Item 6: Sixteen birthday candles that do not light These candles do not light despite the staff’s best efforts. They are in assorted colors and appear to have been taken from the local arcade. While there is no record of the server hosting parties for small children, it is nonetheless seemingly evident that a children’s birthday party was held near Joe’s pinball arcade, judging by the party hats and smatterings of children’s toys in the area.

Some of my Duncney headcanons because you said you'd like to be spammed :)
- whenever they have lucky charms duncan always eats all of the marshmallows out of the box and leaves courtney with the plain cereal
-courtney doesn't like the crust on her sandwiches so duncan will eat it for her
-courtney is always the first to wake up in the morning, but sometimes duncan will turn off her alarm a day in advance just so he can spend more time with her
-in a world where total drama doesnt exist they always meet through mutual friends i dont know why but thats a rule
-He'll purposefully hide behind corners to scare her and it works 98% of the time but she grows used to it at some point
-they adopt a big threatening looking dog and name it princess and give it a pink collar or something
-when theyre teenagers shes at his house 99% of the time because it just feels so homey compared to hers
-they both wear glasses when theyre alone at home, dont ask why i just think its cute
-When they're not even that far into their relationship, he gets a tattoo of her name in cursive right above his collarbone or something because hes impulsive and she thinks its so thoughtful but also so incredibly stupid of him
-I headcanon that duncan has adhd and maybe a little bit of dyslexia so if he can't read something too well she'll read it to him
-She listens to him ramble and even if the topic changes 5 times she'll be there to add on and nod her head
-They go to the gym together and are SOOO competitive but are each other's biggest supporters at the same time
-She lets him give her a piercing at least once because he never shuts up about it
-She'll help him dye his hair
-Duncan's nose whistles while he sleeps because he has a crooked septum and Courtney complains about it at first but at some point it actually becomes really soothing and she'll wait for him to fall asleep first every night because the whistling helps her sleep
-Courtney cant cook for the life of her and she's jealous of him because he's one of the best cooks she's ever met. She'll follow a recipie to a T and it'll still turn out terrible, meanwhile he measures everything with his heart and it always turns out SO good.
-Duncan can sleep anywhere and everywhere meanwhile she'll be kept up by the littlest things. He knows this and will go to extreme measures just to make sure she's comfortable.
-Say they go to a restaurant and they get her order wrong. His first instinct is to tell off the waiter himself, but he knows she'll be pissed because she can fight her own battles, so he'll just support her in the background like "you heard the lady."
-He sleeps with socks on and it makes her SO mad
-Although he's hard to read, she can always tell when he's nervous because he twists around one of the studs in his ear.
-they both love cartoons
-They both get jealous so easily and it's a turn on for both of them when the other is jealous
-He listens to her work drama and gets soo invested. He'll say stuff like "You know I never liked that bitch" or "No I literally would've done the same thing If i were you-"
-He always thinks he's paying the bill at restaurants but she'll say she's going to the bathroom only to give them her card instead. He never finds out and takes so much pride in it.
-Duncan literally owns spiders but is terrified of something harmless like a moth or a ladybug. He instantly yells and forces Courtney to kill them instead.
-Before he leaves for work she'll kiss him and her lipstick will leave a mark on his face and she purposefully wont tell him
-He always takes pictures of her when she's not looking and sends them to their friends because he thinks she looks most beautiful when she doesn't even know it
-She tries to teach him spanish and he only picks up on the swears
-They both have terrible road rage. Like they should not be allowed to drive
-She gets addicted to something like candy crush or Hayday and he has to take her phone from her for her own safety
-Their playlists are so different but hand either one of them the aux and they always sing every word together
That's all I can think of right now 😂 but i hope atleast some of these sound in character for them
I loved every single one of these!
- tbh… I think Courtney would like that Duncan takes all the marshmallows from lucky charms. Idk they seem kinda gross and unnecessary… don’t hate me 👀
- Okay the crust one is so cute if it were Dramarama Duncney! Imagine her at lunch time and just pouting so much until Duncan asks her what’s wrong? Then he makes fun of her for “being a baby” and eats it for her. Then she vows to never let that happen again so she starts trying all the food things she hates.
- Duncan shuts Courtney’s alarm off ONE TIME and all hell breaks loose. She’s scrambling, cursing, and Duncan is just sitting there like “It’s Saturday.”
- Ah, the KB5 never fails us at setting up a Duncney meet up. Valid.
- The one where Duncan is trying to scare her constantly is so funny because I can just imagine her getting so used to it that doesn’t even phase her anymore. Like one day she’s going through the mail and he pops out and she completely ignored him and shoves a bill in his face 😅
- Oh they absolutely adopted a dog and name her princess! She’s a meany to the world but to her parents? Oh, she’s the biggest baby!
- Oh man, the one with Courtney being at Duncan’s house 24/7? YES. It makes me sad tbh, but I completely agree. Her household is just so strict that if you even sleep in past a normal waking hour her parents are hounding her for it. So going to Duncan’s is so refreshing and his family absolutely adores her so they don’t even mind. Heck, sometimes Duncan gets home and Courtney’s just chilling with his mom.
- Duncney in glasses is so CUTE. I need fanart of it asap! Courtney’s always worn them but has her contacts in almost constantly. Duncan refuses to acknowledge he needs them until the very last minute because he HATES being compared to his dad on any level. And it’s canon that his dad has glasses lmao
- Imagine Duncan sneaking into Courtney’s room like, “Sup, Babe. Check it out.” and just pulls his shirt off to show her. Meanwhile Courtney’s just sitting in her bed like how the fuck did you get into my room and why the fuck is my name on you?! Then she’s like “Awe, that’s so cute.” and Duncan’s all “I’m not cute.”
- Omfg yes! Imagine Duncan reading Courtney’s published book?! Imagine him wanting her to read whatever little mini story she has written for herself? I HC her as always writing away whenever she’s super stressed and sometimes they turn into cute little stories with an actual plot.
- Courtney loves when Duncan talks about his passions. There’s never just one, he has like a billion ideas and dreams and he never forgets to add the “And I want you along side me through it all.” She absolutely gushes about it on the inside!
- I fucking love gym Duncney! They have their own workouts but always ALWAYS scan the floor to check on each other. Whenever Courtney finds him checking her out he winks and she blushes no matter how long they’ve been together. And of course they are popping up whenever anyone comes up to the other trying to flirt. Hell no, they shut that shit down 😂
- Courtney’s had her ears pierced since she was three months old (Latinos say I) so whenever Duncan suggests more piercings she’s always like, “I already have my ears done.” So he suggests her bellybutton so much that she eventually lets him and it’s the scariest thing to hide from her parents until she moves out.
- Courtney has a little green tint to her fingertips because she’s ditched using gloves a long time ago. Duncan insists they only get in the way 🙄 So when people joke around with the, “Oh, looks like someone has a green thumb!” She looks down and is like, “Nope, just my boyfriends hair dye.”
- Courtney’s the type of person who needs complete and total silence and darkness to fall asleep. At first she’s constantly waking Duncan up or turning him the other way so she can at least fall asleep. Eventually she realizes it’s comforting because she knows he’s with her and whenever he’s at work or something she literally cannot sleep until he’s home. It’s a problem lmao
- No because the cooking one hit a little too close to home LMAO. Honestly, WHY are guys so good at cooking out of nowhere? Not fair. Anyway, yes. Courtney knows a few dishes but they never compare to her Abuela’s/Mom’s cooking. But Duncan? Oh, his Nonna practically dragged him into the kitchen to help her at such a young age that he’s a natural. That’s the one person in his life that he truly can say loves him unconditionally (besides Courtney of course).
- It literally pisses Courtney off so much at how quickly Duncan can fall asleep.
- Going to a restaurant is scary for the both of them. Not only do they have to dodge paparazzi, but there is almost always a problem. It can be the food, the people, or just something plain like the restaurant being out of the one thing both of them wanted. They’d much rather stay at home to avoid a scene lol
- Courtney WILL wait until Duncan’s knocked out to take those damn socks off.
- Goodness, YES. Duncan will never show emotion, he’s constantly with his poker face but Courtney just knows when something is up. She can tell by the tone of his voice and his body language. Then the little stud twist? Done deal. She is getting him the hell out of there and trying to calm him down.
- Duncan loves watching cartoons like family guy, American dad, etc. while Courtney just enjoys the childhood reruns like Kim Possible lmao. Sometimes Duncan will come home and catch her binge watching something cute like that.
- Before Duncney are in their mature stage of their relationship they are definitely pulling strings on each other. They get in a fight? Bet. Watch me go flirt with this girl or guy just to piss you off enough to snap. It’s toxic af but it works for them in some weird kinda way.
- Duncan absolutely hates listening and LIKING the work gossip Courtney talks about. At first he’s so annoyed and tries to change the subject but one time when Bridgette is over Courtney is telling a story and he’ll catch himself either correcting her or being like, “Don’t forget she did this too.”
- Ah Duncan. The king of never checking his monthly billing statements that would so clearly indicate he has in fact NOT paid for a date for months.
- Hm, I think duncan would lie and say he “can’t kill a lady bug because it’s so pure to the world.” or something along those lines. In reality he’s terrified.
- Hell yeah, Courtney! Tell everyone that’s YOUR man. I’m cheering her on with this one. 💅🏼
- Courtney has the GC on dnd because Geoff is always blowing it up in the middle of the night. So when she randomly checks it after a long day she’s just scrolling through like 20 pictures of herself drinking coffee or fixing her hair. Then DJ, the supportive king is always like, “Awe, those are nice.”
- Courtney teaching Duncan Spanish 🤝🏼 Duncan teaching Courtney Italian
- We all watched celebrity manhunt. Those two need their licenses suspended immediately.
- Imagine Courtney playing candy crush LMAO. She’s one of those people who are always like, “I could never get so consumed by a game like that.” Then downloads it during covid and is up ALL NIGHT and Duncan’s just like concerned 💀
- OMFG YES YES YES! Duncney’s playlist are so so different but they know each others taste and everything. If Duncan blasts some punk rock Courtney knows the chorus and even does a little air guitar when it’s time. And Duncan will never ever in a million years admit it but whenever Courtney plays her music? If he’s belting out those babies with her. And the ballads?!? Oh, it’s beautiful.

While I mostly remember this trope from the moomins, I've probably seen it in other things too, but you ever notice when some show offhandedly mentions some "great-grandma's secret recipie/trick" etc of how to solve some household problem with a miraculously efficient way, it's always someone's great-grandma, an older adult's grandmother, who has (hopefully peacefully) passed away long before the story started, but whose name lives on as a legendary domestic mishap-fixing superhero? It's never someone's living grandmother, or someone that the protagonists would have ever met.
As this probably also happens in real life in some families, I get this feeling that the trope only ever illustrates passed relatives because they were not known as the neat and tidy, shiningly efficient domestic goddesses in their time. The woman who figured out the "who knew you could solve this whole thing by adding hot sauce?"-solution probably also discovered 10 000 things that could not be improved by adding hot sauce, and simply never wrote them down. And also very likely caused the extremely improbable problem in the first place.
And as my newest completely random headcanon that I'll never use for anything, moominmamma's grandmother had ADHD.

I am this pale thing that flushes red so quickly and tends to bruise like a peach.
My thighs, my arms and my breasts are always the major recipients of the knobby little knees and elbows that come with full-body tackle hugs and adhd-speed-cuddles.
We’ve been ill the last two weeks, so the bruises that came from his hand are long gone.
I am this pale thing that flushes red so quickly and tends to bruise like a peach… yet I have none 😔

blog rules!
Hello! Thank you for checking out my rules. The mun is 25+ and my birthday is November 6. My name is Brittany, or you can call me Britt, and my pronouns are she/her. I live in Canada (EST).
I use small text for basically everything, I use icons (80x80) for all muses, I use italics and bold as needed for emphasis in my writing.
This is a roleplay blog, a multimuse that contains all original characters. All muses are always available, but I do have a main muse; the favorite.
NOTE: some of my muses are able to speak different languages. I do not, I only speak English. So if this ever comes up, I will be using google translator, so please be forgiving of errors.
Below the cut are my rules and how I run my blog. I apologize for it's length.
Tumblr media
First, a little bit about me! I am autistic and have adhd. Forgive me if I occasionally have trouble understanding something or if I'm socially awkward. I don't intentionally want to upset anyone. I can only offer my best. I am a huge animal lover and I may post pictures of my service dog here and there.
I don't mind NON-roleplay blogs following me. Feel free to reblog memes, quotes, images, gifs, I prefer that you reblog from me. DO NOT reblog my roleplays unless you're the recipient, my headcanons, answered asks about myself or my characters.
Hub blogs; more than happy to write with you! But preferably I would follow just the main blog as a "this is me saying I'll write with any of your muses but I'm not following all the blogs." I just prefer not to follow a bunch of sideblogs all connected to one main.
Don't follow if you have no patience. I'm here to have fun, I'm not a writing-machine. Do not pester for replies.
Take your time. You are worth waiting for, don't apologize for it. I'm always available out of character to chat, and I have a discord that I will give out on request. I will never rush you, please don't rush me.
My blog is strictly 18+ due to the themes that will be present here. Not limited to: violence, blood, death, gore, horror, weaponry (guns, knives), drugs, alcohol, harm to people and animals, hunting for food, profanity, ghosts, werewolf and other beast-like creatures, dogs, wild canids, cats, dragons, taxidermy (thylacines). If these topics make you uncomfortable, you follow at your own risk.
Please tell me if you need a trigger warning. I rarely use trigger warnings, especially given that my blog is dedicated to dark themes and characters. So it can be difficult for me to really understand what needs one. I personally have no triggers.
I am always accepting memes and questions! Answers vary in length. I will not always answer everything sent, please don't take this the wrong way. Sometimes I just don't know how to respond.
You do not need to specify my muse when sending memes. Please specify your muse if you're a multimuse. Feel free to send memes or questions with "your choice," but don't be disappointed or ask me to change it if I respond with a muse you "didn't want." If you want a certain muse or range of muses, specify the name(s).
I love continuing asks! Even if it's short, it can still be fun and it gives us both extra bits and pieces of depth into our muses. Sometimes a meme can spark an idea for a great thread. I LOVE multiple threads! I am greedy. Give me all the threads!
I continue asks from the ask itself. The trim reblog system allows the ask to be trimmed away. If you want to continue an ask with me, reblog my answered ask.
I will no longer be posting chain-asks, and I likely won't be sending any either anymore. Though I deeply appreciate that you thought of me, the chain-asks get to be too much. If I want to spread love to a blog, I will do so with my own words.
I am embarrassingly bad at plotting. Please don't come to me thinking I am going to have all these awesome ideas... It's extremely unlikely that I will. I don't hate plotting, I'm bad at it. I will try to plot if you want to, but this is a fair warning that I struggle with the concept of plotting. Please don't get mad at me if I can't provide ideas.
The best way to start a thread with me is: Sending and continuing asks. Starter calls and responding to open starters. Tagging me in random starters.
Open starters are always open. It doesn't matter if it was posted today or five years ago, or if it's been responded to. Open starters are always open!
HATE FREE BLOG. I don't give haters attention, look for the attention you want elsewhere. My muses are not a reflection of me. I'm a mess who requires peace.
Do not tell me you know nothing about my muse(s). The information is right there in my pinned post and blog description; a link to my muses where each muse has their details linked. If you need help accessing the links, let me know.
I am semi-selective and open to writing with non-mutuals. I try to give everyone a chance, but sometimes things don't work out and that is okay. If you followed me first, give me a couple days. If I haven't followed back by then, I likely won't.
Please soft block to break mutuals with me. If I fail to notice you've unfollowed, I may still continue to interact with you. Mutual checker does not work on sideblogs. I soft block to break mutuals. I do not like hard blocking people unless they've made me uncomfortable.
Feel free to drop a thread if you're no longer feeling it. You don't have to tell me; I'll assume anything not responded to is dropped, or I may ask. Want to continue it again down the road? Sure! There's no pressure here. Just have fun!
I am open to shipping my muses romantically, I love shipping, but I do admit I don't have a lot of experience writing romance. I am open to all relationships; friends, familial, enemies, etc. I am multi-ship. Each thread is separate, each romance is separate.
Pre-established ships, unplanned feelings that lead to a ship, easing into a ship. My/your muse has feelings but your/my muse doesn't. All is good. What matters is the mun not forcing a ship.
I am not comfortable writing smut and will not participate in that sort of writing. I will utilize a fade-to-black.
I have certain muses that are non-shippable, these muses are: Bailey (a child), Alpha, Delta, Miso, Rex and Vesper (animals).
No power playing. Moving along a small scene is okay, but don't control my muses' actions, words and don't assume that my muse is unable to dodge a move by yours.
I don't want to write with a "mary-sue." This means a muse that is deemed "perfect" with zero flaws; everybody loves them, they never make mistakes, they know everything there is, can do everything, etc. It's just not fun.
Quality over quantity! Replies don't need to be long to be good and fun. I only ask that you try not sending me one line if I write a large paragraph.
I only roleplay on tumblr. No exceptions, sorry, I will never write on discord or any other text messaging platform.
I do not send "passwords" or anything of the sort. I don't follow without reading rules. If I followed you, I have looked over your rules and muse(s). But do understand that on top of my memory problems, I read a lot of rules and muse bios. Things will be forgotten. I do often re-read prior to writing, but mistakes happen.
THESE RULES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AS NEEDED!
