#losing confidence
Text
Time to be sickeningly more gay then I was yesterday because I decided to drink my coffee before getting dressed and now that caffeine boost has turned into confidence and I'll get changed into something dark and flamboyantly queer, but in the next twenty minutes I'll change back into my jeans and my hoodie all because the confidence wore off and I don't feel comfortable being myself anymore.
We need an all day caffeine solution.
I don't want to die just because I drank eight cups of coffee with enough cream and sugar to kill an elephant in each one.
Let me have my things, is that so hard?

it seems like some of you don't really understand the social implications in regency england for an unpopular debutante when her good friend who also happens to be one of the most eligible bachelors of the ton declares that she's not worthy of courting in her own damn garden after being seen taking multiple liberties with her.
it has nothing to do with the fact that he doesn't return her feelings. it has everything to do with how absolutely careless he was with her. even if he didnt realise he was leading her on, that's what he did. he made things harder for a woman who already had so little by her side. he used to be one of the reasons she could stand being part of the ton, but in that moment he instantly became just like one of her bullies. and obviously that breaks her until she becomes what we saw in the sneak peek for s3.
people will see how her friends treat her and think it's fine to mock her to her face. she is the embarrassment, the laughingstock and it was fine when she thought she had the bridgertons by her side. but now she knows what colin really thinks of her. he validated all the bullies she had, when she was mocked for her looks or her shyness. that is such a painful betrayal, especially when not TWO FUCKING SECONDS ago he claimed that she was special to him!!!!!!!
is that not worthy of grovelling?????? cuz i fucking think it is.
#idc what ANYONE says#colin is going to have to fucking grovel for it#some of ya'll just really dont understand the nuance of regency england society expectations#i cant believe some of you guys think he did nothing wrong and he has nothing to apologise for#he's gonna lose his confidence this season? good#he deserves to know what he almost lost#penelope featherington#polin#bridgerton s3#bridgerton season 3

6 Knock-on’s-of missing tooth
Missing merely a single tooth may have severe consequences, both from a health and a quality lifestyle standpoint. Whether you miss out on a single tooth or a number of them, the outcomes are sometimes misinterpreted. Missing just a single tooth significantly influences your speech patterns, ability to feed, and self-esteem.
However, there are numerous ways you can drop a tooth, and there are only a few alternatives to restore absent teeth, with dental implants being the ideal – meaning the healthiest, most long-lasting choice. Losing a tooth is usually a result of gingivitis, tooth weathering, inadequate dental hygiene, genetics, or even trauma. When you lose a tooth, issues commence instantly; your teeth are part of your body and supposed to be there.
Let’s look at some of the most typical repercussions people with one or more missing teeth encounter in their daily lives. 6 such drawbacks of missing teeth on your lifestyle are:
Trouble Eating: Everyone knows that we use all of our teeth as tools to chew on & break down the food we feed on. Basically, in this way, the first step of the digestion cycle takes place in your mouth. Your incisors and canine teeth assist in cutting and chopping while our molars tear and mash our food to break it down, make it easy for us to swallow it, set out to absorb the nutrients, and aid in speedier digestion.
However, what if you’re lacking one of those teeth?
Depending on which tooth you’ve dropped, there is a high possibility that you will encounter issues or even pain eating some of your preferred foodstuffs.
Losing a molar could lead to issues eating nuts, meats, and any other hard or tough-textured food. But the scenario does not happen at all halt here; the consequences carry on when you don’t chew your food enough as it has to be. This can result in poor digestive function, and consuming poorly chewed food includes poor digestion and even a substantial effect on how your body breaks down and absorbs the nutrients from the food.
Teeth Shifting: When teeth are absent, your adjacent teeth can quickly shift to pack the gap left by your missing tooth. However, that is not the awful part of a missing tooth; whenever you shed a tooth, the alveolar bone, the amount of the jaw bone that anchors the teeth in the mouth, no more receives the mandatory stimulation and starts to break down, or even resorb.
The body virtually feels it no longer uses or “needs” the jaw bone; therefore, it deteriorates. Usually, people will miss 25% of their assisting jawbone framework within the initial year after tooth loss. Similar to how muscles are preserved through a workout, bone tissue is taken care of by us. All-natural teeth happen to be embedded in the jaw bone and stimulate the jaw bone through actions such as chewing and biting.
2.Trouble Chatting: As we have outlined above, when one or more teeth are absent, it can bring about the bone loss within the site of the missing tooth. This loss of jaw bone can turn into added issues with your appearance and overall wellness. Individuals with more than one missing tooth may encounter soreness, complications with their leftover teeth, altered facial appearance, and in the end, the inability to communicate and consume normally.
The rate of bone dips and the degree of bone loss varies significantly among individuals. Nevertheless, most loss occurs within the initial eighteen months following the removal and will carry on progressively throughout your lifestyle.
Besides altering your cosmetic appearance and leading to difficulty feeding, missing even just one tooth can interfere with how you naturally pronounce a few words. For this reason, some people with absent teeth can experience issues when chatting, like whistling, spitting, or even slurring.
3.Losing Jaw Bone: In case you haven’t figured out the most detrimental effect of missing a tooth, it’s bone loss. You are exercising your jawbone during your day-to-day activities of communicating, chewing, and eating. In the same way, muscles are taken care of through exercise; bone tissue is preserved by usage. The workout helps conserve the jaw bone and maintain its health and wellbeing.
When you drop a tooth, your jaw bone is not stimulated in that specific region, thus subsequently leading to a decrease in strength, shape, and dimension – much like when you take too much time far away from a workout.
4.Appearing Older: Recall when you were a child and could not hang on to become a teen? Then you definitely couldn’t delay getting your license, achieving your degree, and beginning your life. A person wishes to grow in age and be more mature – all of us do at that age – and then we become older. Tooth impairment is not natural and is not an age issue.
No one wishes to look older, but that’s precisely what you’ll acquire if you don’t instantly replace your absent tooth with a dental implant. Who would desire their appearance and health to degrade? That’s the natural effect of missing teeth – the jaw virtually dissolves.
Missing teeth speeds up the aging process since it all pops up to bone loss. When you’re missing out on teeth, the jaw bone contracts, and your cosmetic appearance changes along with it; as a result of related bone loss, your facial attributes will begin to crease, bringing about that “sunken in” appearance. This is how missing even a single tooth can cause a noticeable change in facial look and bite angle. Absent teeth can result in premature aging due to these effects associated with bone reduction.
5.Losing Confidence: An absent tooth isn’t a joke, mainly if it’s one of your more noticeable ones. If you lacked a tooth, would you be just as relaxed to talk without reservations or grin wide in snapshots? A missing tooth can substantially influence your self-esteem, mainly when it’s one of the front teeth. You could feel embarrassed to giggle or communicate face-to-face with people, or you unexpectedly develop a lisp due to a missing front tooth.
When you’re pearly whites & gums are in excellent shape, you have no issue smiling widely. The whole world is a better place with your smile, don’t allow a missing tooth to stop you from spreading your incredible smile.

I believe in not only corrupting eggs to transition to men but to light fires under the asses of men who transition but stop taking it seriously for whatever reason. With enough repeated failure and desires left unsatisfied, even these big shot, loud and angry, rowdy tboys start to have that soft boy fetishized weakness rigomoroll shit catch up with them. They start to familiarize and hide behind their own percieved inferiority, these hot young soldiers with all this potential losing steam and left to reminisce while they're still half-baked, a bunch of poor bastards. Steam powered, roided inertia slows to a vapid convention and stops at a stale, repetitive restriction of depleted self esteem. The raw abrasion of transition wears off and the bullshit we deal with as men wears on us, makes us minimize ourselves, keeps us bound to the same old same old, always for the best.
Doesn't have to be the case. In an age of mediocrity and the demonization of queer masculinity, be that man. If you feel unhappy and discontent and you don't know how, take your transition a little more seriously. You don't just do it once, you come out and take the steroids, heehee hoohoo i'm pinocchio and the blue fairy made me a real boy and you're done forever happily ever after. Masculinity is about constantly challenging yourself, and if you're being challenged as a man constantly it can be a sign of a good thing. You will grow in the face of, in spite of, and because of adversity. Shoot things. Hit things. Fucking stand up for yourself and stop letting people walk all over you. Step outside of your comfort zone. Make yourself dangerous. Make others dangerous. Walk the streets with no fear knowing if somebody gives you shit you've broken yourself in so many times you're equipped to deal with it. Don't slow down and remember who the fuck you are.
#forcemasc#autoandrophilia#forced masculinization#cause i see all these men who just lose confidence and choose to shelter themselves as much as they can. anxiety takes over they surrender#breaks my heart.#if you cant transition and its not safe to do so? microdose on transitioning. be that safe person that people can come to.#stand up and call bullshit out when you see it. don't let anyone push you around.#and honestly the most masculine fucking thing you can do is endure it i mean fucking live through it#work and live to see better days because i believe in u champ and i know u can do it#take it one day at a time. work with what you got.

I’m gonna be honest, I’ve been preparing myself for byler endgame. However, I have not been preparing myself for fans’ reaction to the downfall of milkvan. Like just thinking about it makes me sick. It is going to be absolute chaos.
#byler#the confidence slowly but surely depleting#and then one day boop#all hope gone#no I don’t want to think about it#like in theory you’d think it would be like vindicating or something#and sure in some cases it will be#but like the complete confidence shifting to doubt and it spanning months 😭#it’s already starting#and the worst part is seeing fans lose hope and be hyped up by delulu milkvans#like that person was so close to seeing the light from basic common sense#and then there they go being looped back into a scam 😭

thinking about how as Aemond’s wife you are the model of perfection.
Your back is straight as you curtsy when you first meet him and hair neatly braided with fine jewels. Your voice is even and never waivers as you speak to him of your family and how grateful they are for this union.
You are intelligent and beautiful, the perfect wife.
It’s why Aemond hardly ever spends time with you.
He bears no ill will toward you, of course. There is no resentment or hatred to his lady wife, but there are no fond feelings either.
He knows of courting and romance, his mother taught him everything from a young age. The poor woman would hold her son’s hands tight and explain that a man must not only respect his wife, but truly cherish her. Love her in the eyes of gods and men. As he grew older he noticed the way his father would wave off her constant advice and concerns until the dreaded night where she was the only one defending him after he lost his eye.
But practice was one thing. When you were nothing but a concept. A figment of Aemond’s imagination when he was ten and marriage was only spoken of during his lessons. Before he lost his eye. Before he heard the ladies of the court whispering about his mutilation and before he watched a whore flinch at the sight of his scarring when Aegon dragged him to a brothel on his thirteenth name day.
He learned then that no matter how much he would love and worship his wife, it would not be returned.
Rather than attempt to force it (he was no brute and had no intentions of doing something so cruel) he simply let you be by yourself.
Yes you were married. You sat by one another at every meal and formal event and on the rare occasion he would even ask for your hand in a dance. But Aemond’s affections toward you were few and far to find.
But there were moments.
Where his icy facade would weaken and you found yourself able to slip through the cracks.
Alicent had told you of his “moments” when the engagement had been announced. The queen herself taking you by the hand as you walked through the garden and explaining gently of Aemond’s condition.
“There are times where he feels a great deal of pain because of the-” She paused, chewing on her cheek while trying to find the most inoffensive way to describe the tragedy that befell her son. “-incident he had as a child.”
You knew enough of it. Many rumors flew through court the day Aemond targaryen walked in with a patch on his eye after Laenor Velaryan’s funeral at driftmark. Some day it was from a sparring incident, others say it was a mark he bore from the first time he mounted the mighty vhaegar. Others say that the Rouge Prince Daemon Targaryen himself gave it to his younger cousin after crude words were exchanged behind closed doors.
You didn’t know what was the truth. Aside from the day the princeling got his scar, was the same he got his dragon.
A fair trade, some would say.
But they didn’t live with the attacks he did.
Nerve damage, is what the maester’s called it when you asked them for more information. His wound may have healed years prior but the prince would continue to live his life with constant bouts of mind-numbing pain brought on by the slightest touch or too sharp of a wind to his cheek.
“Senseless fits.” Aegon called it. When he heard about your curiosity about his brother’s condition he had all but cornered you late at night in the hall. “Anything will set him off and send him throwing a tantrum like a belligerent child. It’s quite entertaining.”
But there’s a moment where the elder brother frowns and you see a shred of concern in his eyes.
“He doesn’t like to be touched during those moments. It makes the pain worse. So if you’re trying to find some way to comfort him I’d recommend you do something else.”
What was ‘something else’ you learned, was simply being there.
Sitting by his side when he curled into himself, trembling fingers reaching out to grab yours and not complaining when his nails dig into the palm of your hand as he cries out in pain. When his breath evens out and the pain subsides, he crawls to you and presses his face to the crook of your neck. He’s far too tired to cover the gnarled scar covering the side of his face but you show no fear or disgust at the sight of it. Your fingers run through his hair, gently combing back the silver tresses and ignoring the tears that stain the shoulder of your gown.
The next morning your husband would wake in your arms and takes a moment to watch your peaceful expression and the way the morning sun kisses your skin.
That day Alicent notices her son sits closer to you at breakfast, speaking softly to you of something she cannot understand. But when she sees his hand reach out and grasp yours, she smiles.
#aemond targaryen x reader#aemond targaryen x you#reminded me of the post about aemond most likely having some sort of nerve damage from losing his eye so- here she be#idk something about composed wives who are just as strong and dangerous if not more than there husband just gets me man#not edited or beta read i just wanted to do a writing exercise to try and clear my mind cause its very blurry atm#this is very wonky wobbly but im trying to keep myself writing even if its silly little things so i dont lose practice yknow!!#for the aemond girlies *passes out*#anyways part two in the 'aemond isnt good at affection' vault because im confident in it#man just assumes you arent attracted to him so he steers clear of you#but is also incredibly protective and a lil jealous

One of the many Wolf 359 script directions that is Important To Me is this bit from Ep15 What's Up, Doc?, which comes after Hilbert has been threatening to tell Minkowski how Eiffel ended up on the Hephaestus:
#Wolf 359#w359#I do think script directions like this are perfectly reflected in the actors' performances#and also think they are very worth reading#He says he just needs her to drop it *right now*#which gives an opening to bring it up again another time#but we don't have any evidence that she ever tried to ask him again#In my opinion 'I didn't murder anyone' is not a very reassuring defence#because if that's the only defence he can give#it arguably implies that what he did is just a level of awfulness below that#But Minkowski accepts that defence as all she needs to know#She has full confidence in him#a blank cheque of trust#No wonder he didn't want to tell her#(He didn't want to lose that trust)#No wonder it was so devastating for Minkowski to find out the truth#(The idea that her trust might have been misplaced terrifies her)#Also Eiffel is surprised that Minkowski doesn't push it#He's taken aback by how easily she trusts him#He doesn't expect people to trust him#and just take his word for it that they don't need to discuss his past#He's expecting to need to argue#He's preparing to try to justify his secrecy further#But he doesn't need to#She just trusts him immediately#Eiffel & Minkowski#the empty man posteth#Doug Eiffel#Renée Minkowski#w359 spoilers

As someone who heavily relates to Quinni and is a little bit in love with Harper and her fucked-up bad-bitch mystique, I think they should have an incredibly intense and fucked up gay relationship that leaves them both irreversibly wrecked as people. They could make each other worse and better in equal measure and I want it sooo bad
#and that is my contribution to the fandom thank u for your time#never underestimate an autistic girl’s ability to see through the tough-girl’s bullshit#and never underestimate the tough-girl’s ability to inspire confidence in her friends!#Harper would teach Quinni how to win the idgaf war and Quinni would teach Harper how to lose the idgaf war#do you see the vision????#Harper would be like: omg fuck everybody do what you want!! go crazy go stupid!!!#and Quinni would be like: …you know you don’t have to pretend like you’re okay all the time right?#if nothing else I need their friendship to be more fleshed out!!!#heartbreak high#quinni gallagher jones#harper mclean#cass actually talks!#omg they’re also the goth + pastel (ish) stereotype!!!#it just gets better guys like get on my level kdbdjdk

something that absolutely changed the way i approach goals was realising that it's never the thing that you want, but rather the feelings that you believe it will give you. without striving for those feelings, the thing is not going to make you happy.
for example, until i was eighteen i would daydream about having a Real Best Friend. like i wanted my disney channel bff you know?? and getting older felt a lot like 'okay it'll happen when i get to secondary school' 'okay it'll happen when i get to sixth form' 'okay it'll happen in fandom' and it just. never did. i kept getting sucked into friendships that made me feel shit about myself while all the people that seemed to want to be close to me would, for some reason, make me feel uncomfortable. but it was at the point where i was like, okay. what do i really want from a friend? is it the actual object of A Friend or is it what i feel like A Friend would allow me to do? so instead of looking for that Real Best Friend, i started allowing myself to feel like i deserved a Real Best Friend. i stopped deleting my messages even if i thought they were embarrassing, and i stopped worrying that people would think im annoying if i messaged them first, and i stopped being scared of being 'too much' whenever i shared my interests.
and you know what? within two months i GOT that Real Best Friend. within a few more i had Multiple of those Real Best Friends. it's been three years since that shift in my life and it's like All my friends are like my disney channel bff friends -- they genuinely care about me, they genuinely like me as a person, they invite me to their houses, they cook for me, they buy me random things when they think of me, and most of all they make me love myself more, when for my entire life the trade off for a friendship always felt like i had to hate myself a little.
idk. i just think it's worth remembering that the feeling of something is the most important thing to strive for. a thing without feeling is nothing
#this is... also VERY relevant to weight loss/diets#not gonna get into it too deeply but just like. if youre trying to lose weight#id really suggest you focus mostly on all the emotional/mental benefits you think being at your gw will give you#(e.g. confidence in a certain dress or not having to over think your snacks)#because trust me when i say if you hate yourself into getting to your goal weight you're still going to hate yourself at that weight#your mental state and your thought processes are like stained glass and they will colour whatever reality is in front of you#♡alizeh talks♡
