seriously have been thinking about this all night long. call me autistic but the fact that 90% of workplaces the point is not to get your work done and then be done doing it but to instead perform an elaborate social dance in which you find something to do even when you're done doing everything you need to do in order to show your fellow workers that you, too, are Working . because you are at Work . disgusting why cant we all agree that if there is no work immediately to be done. we just dont do anything

#i personally like to not be doing things constantly at all times. it stresses me out #i know there are ppl who thrive on cosntant activity #but me i like to chill out.#and the problem then becomes that i only ACTIVELY remember to do work and Find More Work To Do when im stressed #at the thought that others might want to see me working #if im ever relaxed i just dont look for stuff to do #catch 22 of modern work culture which permeates even ostensibly noncapitalist structures like public libraries #for instance: will it really kill anybody if the books get shelved by me now after a very busy day?#or shelved tomorrow morning by. well probably me since i'll be the one at the desk #not in the slightest #but it was work that wasnt being immediately done by me. therefore it was incorrect behavior #that i failed to identify because my instinct is to relax when not immediately presented with a Situation #this got me labeled as 'having no initiative' by my dad from a very early age #and even as an adult i still feel like im a child with no initiative

i know it’s like years old at this point but i love that one collab mumbo and grian did with tommyinnit bc it’s like the single most concentrated example i’ve seen of mumbo’s Chaos Nullification Powers

you get to see a bit of it on hermitcraft, mostly via his interactions with grian, but until seeing that collab it didn’t really hit me just how completely mumbo can no-sell other people’s attempts to control a situation. tommyinnit is possibly the single shoutiest, most chaotic minecraft youtuber out there, and in most videos i’ve seen he pretty much overwhelms everyone else and sets the tone for interactions because of this. but mumbo just. doesn’t let him. no matter how much tommy escalates in intensity, mumbo reacts with *exactly* the same energy he always does. grian largely comes across in the whole video as annoyed and reluctant to engage with the whole thing, but mumbo’s not even affected. he just rolls with anything he finds funny and basically ignores anything he disapproves of, only seeming more and more unflappable the harder anyone tries to get a rise out of him.

AND imo, this is the key to my favorite interpretation of him as a character

see, when the people around him are being more reasonable/calm, i think mumbo often comes across as anxious and a bit easily overwhelmed. the thing is, his nervous wet cat vibes do not scale. he has one setting. his responses to the last life ‘ah-ha!’ jokes and to hermitcraft 8 starting to crumble to pieces under a falling moon are almost identical.

mumbo jumbo is inexorably and eternally Just Some Guy, but that gets stranger and stranger the weirder his surroundings become. the giggly incredulousness that makes him an easy target for goofy puns looks Very different when it’s also his reaction to the impending end of the world.

#anyway yeah i have this whole idea in my head about mumbo’s friendship with grian from a characterization standpoint #bc i agree with the somewhat? common consensus that being friends with mumbo has made grian softer and friendlier over time #but i don’t think it was in a ‘reflecting back the kindness he’s being shown’ way #i think it’s because the more harsh and chaotic you try to be towards mumbo the more you feel ineffectual and out of control #and grian can’t handle it so he slowly becomes nicer until he feels like they’re on equal footing again #like don’t get me wrong i think they genuinely are good friends #and i don’t think this is necessarily something mumbo is doing on purpose #but i think the power dynamic going on under the surface is much more bizarre and weighted in mumbo’s favor than it seems at first glance #mumbling

“When I first heard it, from a dog trainer who knew her behavioral science, it was a stunning moment. I remember where I was standing, what block of Brooklyn’s streets. It was like holding a piece of polished obsidian in the hand, feeling its weight and irreducibility. And its fathomless blackness. Punishment is reinforcing to the punisher. Of course. It fit the science, and it also fit the hidden memories stored in a deeply buried, rusty lockbox inside me. The people who walked down the street arbitrarily compressing their dogs’ tracheas, to which the poor beasts could only submit in uncomprehending misery; the parents who slapped their crying toddlers for the crime of being tired or hungry: These were not aberrantly malevolent villains. They were not doing what they did because they thought it was right, or even because it worked very well. They were simply caught in the same feedback loop in which all behavior is made. Their spasms of delivering small torments relieved their frustration and gave the impression of momentum toward a solution. Most potently, it immediately stopped the behavior. No matter that the effect probably won’t last: the reinforcer—the silence or the cessation of the annoyance—was exquisitely timed. Now. Boy does that feel good.”

— Melissa Holbrook Pierson, The Secret History of Kindness (2015)

#dog books #this chapter was very sad reading #when you become aware of punishment #and its use and its prevalence #it's hard not to despair #again this is why positive reinforcement feels like absolution #maybe now my eyes are open I can make up for what I did #what I did because it's what everyone does #because it's more acceptable to punish than to do anything else #I've been having so many thoughts about punishment and society and justice #this book was very validating #another great validating moment in my jumbled thoughts #was listening to the You're Wrong About episode on justice #with Amanda Knox #it helped to ease the despair a little

3 eyes to see. Better that then being with me.

In a free fall. No where to go but I see it all.

Not with me. Losing yourself as the leaves fall.

Nothing left. Keeping them open is my downfall.

Chasing a dream. There's nothing and I see it all.

Here to now. Change one thing, change it all.

Built a wall. To stop the free fall. Didnt stop at all

Eyes that see. See one thing, I've seen it all

Can't stop now. See it one time go watch it all.

Seen it play out. Nothing can stop where we are

In a free fall. Close my eyes. I'm still in free fall.

The air is heavy. I run, I make no progress at all.

Nowhere to go. Air is heavy now. I'm heavier.

Can't breathe. Lungs in a stall. No air at all.

Can't catch up. Up is down, still in a free fall.

I hit a wall. Try flying up, endless free fall.

Somebody so small. Where you came from.

Nobody not even you. I can't see it at all.

Something different. Something to recall.

Who I was. Somebody so tall, I had it all.

Brain like candy. Sweetness like aphrodisiac.

Taste it all. Living for experience. You will fall.

Mouse trap. In front of you. Go get it all.

Wind like a knife. Gone fast. Nothing to hold.

Wind like a whip. Gone fast, nothing to recall.

Take it back. Too much to recall. I'd rather fall.

VHS tapes. Saw it before. Replayed it all .

Recorded. Watch it again. Cuts deeper each fall.

Should've known. Saw it coming. Still in free fall

No change. Tried to avoid it. Didn't at all.

Nowhere land. Try to grab air. Too heavy to stall.

Nothing in sight. Nothing to grab. Mind blank.

Loss of oxygen. Mind is empty. Your face I recall

Blind rats. What I'd rather be. Someone you call.

Gone where. Change in the view. Still seen it all.

Go forward. Still floating. Past the free fall.

Eyes that see. Looking back. I'd skip it all.

Needed it. Bigger picture. Skip it then a free fall.

Ride it out. Seeing repetitions. Another free fall.

Change yourself. Something different ends it all.

Tomorrow is. Where I'll be. You won't recall.

The future. Where I'll be. Your 2 eyes are small.

Eagles & falcons. Fly with your people. Be tall.

Fly together. With you people. Fly highest of all.

Air so light. Wind beneath. Look up, sky and all.

Anywhere but here. No where to go. I'll see it all.

Open road. Go where I please. I used to do it All.

Again again. Get it back. The you that is all.

Shining crown. Be who you are. The best of all.

More. Meditate don't procrastinate. Find it all .

Cherish it. Envelop knowledge. Become it all.

3rd eye squall. Eyes closed. Open to it all.

Hurt baby. Squint at the sun. Fresh eyes to ball.

Tear through. Pain comes goes like falll

Victory speech. Don't stop ever. Best it all.

Fly higher. To the sun I fall. No fire burns at all.

Reality is. Illusions of perception . I see it all.

Reality isn't. Here before. But now I am tall.

Translucent log. Pay attention. See through it all

Stone houses. Solid ground. Foundations to call.

Butterfly suplex. Graceful nosedive. Hit with all.

Pushing through. Firmament shater. Reality fall.

Become more. Always was. Nothing you recall.

Eyes to see. Something bigger. Bigger then tall.

Given gifts. Always saw before I fall. Saw it all.

Gifts received. Eyes to see. Even to see the fall.

Opportunities given. Become something of all.

Opportunities received. Open eyed. 3 as 1 in all.

Ravens laugh. Nothing to stop. Not even the fall.

Flying through. It was all here. I see you in all.

Minds gift. Creating a vision. One I can recall.

Stealing yourself. Stopping time just to fall.

Past lives. Changing back. Losing it all.

Future is. Receiving vision. How to see it all.

Time to go. Fall colors. Nothing for me in fall.

Future is. Become the thing. Deepest of all.

Brightest lights. Fire fears you. Scariest of all.

Metamorphosis thesis. Change mostly. Not all.

Eagle eye. Understand sight. See more than all.

See through. Don't see it all. Future free fall.

Past ghosts. Future forward. Not back at to wall.

See past. Future done. Creation doesn't wait.

Future reflections. Be there. See them above all.

Something more. Future achieved. Got it in all.

It is what it is…until someone stepped in to change it.

Nothing remains as it is.

Simply acknowledging the way something is or alway it appears is the beginning of change.

#YOU are the beginning of change 💯

But you have a #choice in fact there’s always a choice.

Your choice is, do you accept whatever you are as “it is what it is” 𝙤𝙧 do you have the #courage to make it suit you and go with the reality of your design?

#Challengeyourself 👣 #perspective #mindset

#Challenger #stepup to the #challenge It’s #gotime 😎

#worthit #believeit #trustyourgut #trustyourself #takechances #riskit #becomemore #dreambig then? #dreambigger AND FOLLOW THROUGH ON THOSE DREAMS!

Wonders await your ❤️

#MIRACLES AND #HAPPINESS ARE #HOMEMADE

#fearLESS to #live and #be #free

hadn't seen anyone post the full comic about laios + falin's family on tumblr yet so. here you go source is from the reddit

#in general i haven't seen as many translations of the new content get posted here which is like fine #but it was annoying me that the pages shared here and on twitter were missing sections. lore is serious business #the less lore the average tumblr user knows about the more nonsensical takes i'm forced to read. so im taking direct action #this is the last time im posting manga pages here i don't want to become a manga pages blog #beepbeep.txt #dungeon meshi #dungeon meshi spoilers

First art of the new year is all about re-structuring your internal monologue.

In my early 20s I was working full time in London with many social commitments and a variety of hustles and side projects.

In my later mid 20s I cater to many sensory and social drain needs I have and indulge in special interests while respecting my lower energy reserves and celebrating my different way of processing the world.

Did I get more autistic? Nah. I got less fake.

-

[Art description: Three panels showing figures on a black background. Long descriptions follow.

1. A drawing of OP as a person with hip-length hair and a dress standing sadly with her hands clapsed together in front of her. She is coloured a muted rainbow gradient. Behind her, two pairs of nondescript figures chat while smiling. White text says, ‘I’m getting more and more autistic the older I get.’ 2. OP’s colours are brighter, and her expression looks happier. Crayon-like scribbles have crossed out the text from the previous panel. 3. OP’s colours are vibrant, and she balances on one leg and throws her arms out as she dances. The text above has changed to say, ‘I’m becoming more and more myself the older I get.’ \End descriptions]

#urchin art #autism #autistic #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #actually autistic #autistic things #autistic adult #autistic artist #autistic community #listen- the process of unmasking every fiber of your fabricated being is difficult #figuring out who you are behind the mask is scary #but continuing to act in a play where only you got no script is officially cringe #(this is me waxing poetic I am very aware of the safety needs of masking but that's not the point)#the point is ask yourself #are you getting MORE xyz?#Or are you becoming MORE of you?

you know i think it would be absolutely hilarious if after some time Percy would get so fed up by Mr. D never calling him by his actual name so Percy would just decide to do the exact same thing to him and start calling him anything but Mr. D/Dionysus

like mr. D would be like "Hey Peter Johnson" and Percy would turn around and with a straight face be like " yes, Dave?" and everyone else is just watching horrified like wtf Percy? do you want to be turned into a cockroach????

or Percy would be talking with someone and be like " Derek told me-"

" who..?"

"you know our camp director? god of wine and all that?"

"......you mean mr. D./Dionysus "

"yeah Dylan...so anyways he told me-"

and then it would become this thing between Percy and Mr. D where they would always try to come up with the most stupid and outrageous wrong names to annoy each other as much as they possibly can

everyone is horrified at Percy and just waiting for Dionysus to smite him but Percy and Mr. D are secretely having a fucking blast

#i meant to post this months ago but i forgot 👍🏻#anyways if you saw someone else already talk about this idea no i'm not copying because i didn't see anyone talk about it #if you did please be my friend cause we both have a galaxy brain <3 #percy jackson #mr. d #pjo dionysus #pjo #hoo #percy jackson and the olympians #i'm enjoying the fandom for the last time before the show comes out #and the fandom becomes even more frustrating and toxic than it already is

You know what, fuck it. Let’s show some love for the “unpleasant” autistics.

For the autistics who are always accused of being angry or moody when all they’re doing is sitting there.

For the autistics who take everything literally and respond sincerely.

For the autistics who come across as “blunt” or “rude” for being honest.

For the autistics who are called “control freaks” for needing a sense of order and routine.

For the autistics who get told to shut up for infodumping about uncomfortable topics.

For the autistics who find it too exhausting to mask and pretend to be sunny and friendly.

“Unpleasant” autistics, I love you.

#It becomes more and more apparent to me that everyone’s an ally until an autistic person displays these symptoms #And I’ve fucking had enough #I also need a bit of self love here too tbh lol #autism #autistic #actually autistic #autism positivity #ableism #neurodivergence #neurodiversity #neurodivergent #neurodiverse #disabled #disability

I just found my new favorite Kickstarter scam. It becomes more efficient by switching to the triangle.

"The Alternating Current (AC) produced in the generator is being rectified into Direct Current (DC) through the PCB. There, it becomes more efficient by switching to the Triangle*."

IT BECOMES MORE EFFICIENT BY SWITCHING TO THE TRIANGLE

It's good and cool to give your characters a single simple, straightforward, non-urgent, super-achievable goal that shouldn't really cost anything or hurt anyone, make that the driving factor for most of their decisions, and then have the Plot do everything in its power to stop them.

#writing #the two variations are:#character wants to do the thing but to do that they need this guys approval so they have to do him a favor and for the favor they have to g #(cue chain of deals)#(by the end of it youre overthrowing governments and inheriting wizard magic and marrying dragons or whatever)#(you just wanted to fix your niece's teddy bear)#and #youre trying to do this thing but on the way you ran into a person who needs help and it wont take that long #its not like your thing is urgent youll just do this one thing and move on #(this happens 87 more times)#(you also end up overthrowing the government and becoming a wizard)
