#5. what is your favorite thing about yourself?
cats love me and if theyre scared I can make them love me <3
#but like actually its very easy and cool and nice to get cats to luv u#just blink at them real slow a couple times#then look away. then look back and blink a couple more times#dont get too close if theyre especially skittish but do it from a few feet away. or whatever their comfort level is#then you leave em alone for a little bit! just leave. and dont look at them with direct eye contact#then after a little bit depending again on how skittish they are (maybe do at least an hour away from them/without lookin at them)#you can rinse and repeat#and dont touch until you can actually get close to em! if you think you can but then they shy away then back off and start from step 1#basically just respect their boundaries :)#and give them space and let them warm up to you#the most basic step actually that i'll say: just be in the same room with them without looking at them#do this for a while and then start the blinky blinks#anon#answered

I think what I want to get into with the "Anyone can do harm." thing that I keep beating yall over the head with is that literally anyone, anyone at all can do harm it's not "in your DNA" to be an abuser or written in the stars that you'll be a predator.
Whatever image you have of an abuser in your head, drop it and replace it with your favorite person in the world and you'll probably be closer to the truth than you realize.
It's easy to address harm when it's coming from someone you already hate.
I see it happen all the time. Someone you couldn't stand for no real reason does something heinous then all of a sudden here comes the avalanche of "I always knew they were a fucked up individual."
No, you didn't.
There is no possible way you could have known, you just already didn't fuck with them before they started doing something you could use to justify your hatred of them. I'm guilty of it too! I'm petty, mean, vindictive, and yes! I'm way quicker to believe something bad about someone I hate versus someone I love because I'm human. Still, y all gotta learn to move past that initial "Well, they were always nice to me!" gut feeling and understand that nobody truly knows anyone and anyone can be capable of anything. Even victims. Even you.
#thotty speaks#thotty rants#I was thinking about that Christine chan post and its like yeah yall really don't know how bad it got for her before she did what she did#It reminded me of that thing on tiktok where people take 'cringy' cosplayers videos (most of whom are literal children) and put racist or#bigoted text over it then reupload it to call them out then the og creator gets a flood of harassment mostly from people who hated them for#the crime of being weird on the internet but now they can use 'oh but they're a bigot!' as an excuse to tear them down until they come out#and say 'hey i didn't say this someone stole my shit' and nobody takes their vids down nor apologizes because they didn't fuck with them#anyway so wash rinse repeat#idk I just wish that people had the same smoke for people they actually like#mostly cause I'm tired of being accused of 'switching up' every time I cut people off or stop fuckin with an artist#like this is what we should be doing!!!! ACG ANYBODY CAN GET IT!#It should be smoke for ANYONE who does harm every your fave people!#otherwise you create this world where taking people to task for the harm they've done is less about the harm#and more about justifying our own actions#anyway keep that same energy across the board that's all I'm saying#cause if it comes out tomorrow that somebody close to me did some fucked up shit I'm out of there period#aint no talkin bout shit and that's on me growing up as a child told that certain grown folks can't be alone with me#but they allowed in my house...#Idk about yall but i'm ending that generational curse with me

there is something sooo fucking good about early seasons ian and mickey, about watching this summer fling turn into something more, the fear that elicited from mickey but him being unable to stop, finding those little moments hidden away and taking all this meaning from small gestures and persevering in dugouts and under bleachers and barely pressed confessions in the back of a church that is soo good for my brain
like i am very glad mickey gets to shout his love for ian from the mountain tops and also beat his love for ian into his dad's face but when he was clenching his teeth shut and his love for ian was coming out regardless ohhhhh baby i was eating
#shameless us#gallavich#and also they actually gave noel something interesting to work with instead of 5 mins of nonsense in the later seasons but. what can you do#like i watch later season stuff with like equal parts 'good for them i'm happy they are happy' and 'thats not my boy'#yes my man deserves to be out and happy and a bridezilla but also he would not act like that <3 hope this helps#yes he deserves to be a diva menace no he wouldn't do it like that though <3#yes he should get to heal from his familial trauma no he should not be forced to care for and interact with that man who should be dead#gallavich truly double edged sword of biggest win for fans and also biggest fumble#like ian's supposed to be one time hook up in s1 became his HUSBAND after years of bringing him back and sending him away rinse and repeat#because the writers hated mickey but audiences loved him#so yay they're married! time to have the most uninteresting plots for them imaginable & retcon some dumb ass traits on them for plot purpos#the last 2 seasons should have centered around ian and mickey becoming the centralizing force of the house that fiona was at the start#god there are so many tags here sorry. got more passionate about this than i thought i would#mickey milkovich

lmao why does SEGA keep pushing the sonadow agenda
I mean, I'm not complaining but ???? 👁️👁️ I know what you are
#in hysterics#Tails going from a little sonadow hater to a full on supporter look at him go#and I can SEE that in a way the intent here is for them to solidify their 'dead-serious rivalry'#and they'll have them acting perfectly on point to serve that purpose but then three seconds later you hear more gay ass flirting#rinse and repeat. It gives me whiplash#is this on purpose?? are they trying and failing miserably to avoid shippy interpretations??...................... is this on purpose??????#although they're still leaning into Shadow being grumpier than necessary. But what he lacks in friendly characterization Sonic has in spade#he's carrying the whole thing at this point.... but admittedly Shadow also plays into it#the MOMENT they appear and start talking I'm like 🤨🏳🌈?#'I don't know... I think my *magnetic* personality is quite.. *attractive* 😏' SHUT UUUUUUUUUP#💀💀💀#make out already fr#sonadow#victory for Tails#it feels like SEGA is aggressively giving it their all this year#what a pain#CAN I GET A BREAK

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm fairly sure Majora's Mask Link and the Fierce Diety share the same stat block in Hyrule Warriors. He's also a two handed sword character. Now I'm sure that's to make him different to Captain Link so the DLC was ~*special*~ but my fanfic brain does want to ruminate of the implications of a child having a Punishment Tank build.
#according to the video i watched the most effective way to play him is to take damage then reprise then heal.#rinse and repeat.#he's fast...but not a dodge tank persay??? you can really have dodge tanks in mussou games but still.#so like...even as a child he just...tanked the damage and fought through it.#damn.#majora's mask#ocarina of time#hyrule warriors#lu mask#bouns links mask#young link#link#lu time#lu warriors#linked universe

my toxic trait is that i legitimately have so many little organizers/trays/drawer separators that help me keep my room clean that are literally just cut up cardboard boxes from things I bought - a 12-count clif bar box but horizontal turns into a tray for hair care stuff, and another clif bar box cut vertical for pills/painkillers, old box for period pads with the lid removed becomes my sock container in my drawer, and another for undies. cardboard panels from an amazon box now separate my pants from my shirts from my skirts-and-misc in my clothes drawer. Another clif bar box holds pens and pencils.
which would be fine except. it means that i feel like I should hold onto all my cardboard boxes forever just in case inspiration strikes and it could be a good organizer tray size, so i am forever fighting the urge to keep what is usually just actual garbage (well, recycling at least)
#tag#also tho if you're like me and your adhd clutter (or non adhd clutter) is everywhere and you buy things that come in boxes#this is your sign: grab scissors. if you have tape handy that can help but its optional. make a tray and put a handful of clutter object in#rinse repeat with whatever frequency makes sense to you#you may feel the urge to categorize things as you put them into trays: go ahead and categorize but dont get too caught up in it#it doesn't solve clutter but it makes it SO much easier to move the clutter around#and gives you strong visual blocks of 'how much room does this take up' and 'where might this tray of stuff fit'#and as any sorting task does it also makes you pick up each thing which gives you a moment to go#'wait ok do i actually want to bother keeping this?'

if they wanted me to edit these research guides in a timely manner they should have written them better
#is there a way to ignore all the awkward phrasing and shit and just focus on content?#probably???#but not if you’re me#not when content and writing become intertwined by the bad writing making the content more confusing#what are all these sentences doing in these paragraphs???#that weird kind of vacuous where they exist solely to introduce the next sentence#except the next sentence isn’t related to the point of the paragraph!#so you’ve got [information] [wait what does this mean] [wait what does this have to do with anything??]#rinse repeat#god i just tried to emulate the writing and i just fucking can’t#this is why i never get any writing done#i can’t just string words together in an approximation of meaning and call it a day#like i’m sorry my brain sees ‘if you drink water you should also eat food. for the nourishment’ and goes#‘yeah sure i guess? what are we getting at here and can we just get at it directly?’#it is actively more difficult to try and ignore that shit than have my editing brain on

Okay so I know I haven't really been around beyond lurking now and then and serial Liking posts, but I swear I'm still alive. I've just lost my soul and am tossing bird seed onto the ground to try and lure it back so I can focus.
Please look forward to it.
#Out of the Flames#I like how I come back just to apologize for not being around#then disappear again only to come back in a few days to apologize for not being around#rinse and repeat the process#Incidentally and not at all related to this but if any of you want to hang out on XIV...#-opens up trenchcoat- can I interest you in an alt. or maybe you're looking for a main character instead? I have something for everyone --

ways my emotional support cat has emotionally supported me thus far:
-got the zoomies while I was crying and distracted me by being fucking goofy
-found a bottle of Lexapro that had rolled under my bed (after he knocked it off my nightstand, but he did find it)
-crawled up on my shoulders like a parrot, preventing me from getting any work done (benefit unclear), pic related
-whined like a little baby when I wouldn't let him bite my face (???)
-REFUSES to let me piss without supervision (the bathroom door doesn't close all the way sometimes and he just bonks into it until it opens)
-forces me to get out of bed and bothers me relentlessly when I don't (this one actually is really helpful)
-does this:
#his official esa status is pending with the university but since we live in family housing and not the dorms now theyve been chill#like. they let toddlers live here they can handle a more or less well behaved cat#hes well behaved in the sense hes not destructive at least. he is kind of a little menace though#see above wrt biting me on the nose#we looked up why he does that- apparently some cats give love bites bc theyre trying to groom you like another cat#and the solution is to hiss and meow like a sad injured kitten so he thinks he bit too hard and stops doing it#but the problem with mr man over here#is that when you do that#he will lick you as an apology (insert picture ''a tiny apology'') and then bite you again but softer#rinse and repeat until he gets huffy that you dont want to be bitten#and goes and sits across the room to gaze at you scornfulky#so thats why we have to kick him out of our room at night#hes like the 5th cat ive had in my life and the only one that does this#granted of the other 4. 2 were feral rescue kittens who were middle age by the time i was even born#and the other 2 we adopted when i was like 9 so they were mostly trained by my mom#who runs a TIGHT fuckin ship#anyway hes the loviest little baby boy ever#cult classic alias booboo

You ever so starved for platonic content of your newest babygirl you take the matter into your own hands and write something for the first time in almost a year?
Betaed by my loveliest partner in crime @feroluce!
#this is exactly what it says on the tin#by which i mean in the tags#i thought my latest fic was peak niche but this comes very close to being a contender#but then again i only feel motivated to write something to completion when i really have to cook my own food#so here's kaveh and aether having a good time for once in their life#especially in kaveh's case#genshin impact#genshin#kaveh#aether#paimon is there too because we love and appreciate her#another fic joins the 'i wrote this for me but you can read it too' gang#my first gen fic on the aconyte account but i'm pretty sure aconyte is just my main account now#i don't feel like going back to the other one#whatever my brain yeets out is going there from now on#stay tuned from the next one in six to ten business months probably#which will be for a fandom and feature characters#i do not control the speed at which my brain decides to put out fics#at this point it's like. writes one fic for a fandom. uploads it. disappears immediately. rinse and repeat.#i am the writing cryptid#ray's babbles

quietly getting more & more annoyed at my housemate & her bf as the evening goes on. thought they were at his house this weekend but they showed up unexpectedly to have loud sex here, left for a little bit, came back in the middle of a fight, and are now watching tv really loudly in between continuing to totally-not-fight-everything's-FINE.
#ctxt#shit chat#they're both rly nice people who genuinely love each other a lot & have been together like 7 years#but in the time i've known them they just keep playing out the same maladaptive patterns together and it's painful to watch#one of them will be irritable for some reason and snap at the other; other responds by airing a deep-seated grievance they've been sittin on#and instead of just. having a conflict about it to its conclusion to resolve the issue they just both fall over themselves apologizing#and spend several hours being really touchy & reactive to little things but overwhelmingly gentle/reassuring/affectionate#person A: *snaps* im sorry baby i didn't mean it i'm just stressed i love you so much can i do anything for you?#person B: no no my love you're fine i'm not mad i understand can i do anything for YOU you're so special i care about you so much#*make out in the kitchen about it a bit. swap roles rinse & repeat*#like i know turning towards a loved one after conflict instead of giving them the cold shoulder is a sign of emotional maturity#and is generally a healthy communication habit#but like. you gotta actually HAVE the conflict first instead of glossing over it the minute difficult emotions come up???#and when they get in these loops i really think they should just. agree on a mutual time out to do their own thing for a day#calm down sort themselves out and then come back together to mend things#instead of just reflexively drawing closer together immediately to try and smother discontent#which just results in them still being upset and now tripping over each other bumping elbows exacerbating things#while being obnoxiously saccharine to cover it up#i mean. 7 yrs is nothing to sneeze at but imo this is. not a sustainable way of relating & building a life together#and it sucks to watch it play out. reminds me of my parents who were blissfully incompatible in a similar way for like 30 years#before it finally blew up spectacularly with a lot of collateral damage earlier this year.

*screams into my pillow bc my parents set me up for failure bc of the way they educated me*
#don’t homeschool your kids unless you’re confident you can teach them#probably don’t be a doomsday prepper either#or a conservative politician#or deeply queerphobic#also dont make your fourteen year old apply to a chemical engineering program#especially after you have not had them take a single test in their life#and then when that child ultimately fails#don’t be shocked#and then rinse wash and repeat for your other three kids#who tf is gonna accept a law school applicant from someone who switched majors four times and then took 5 years to graduate#who couldn’t make it through regular college bc again your parents didn’t educate you#so you had to go from homeschooling to community college to an online college#and you still are barely making it through things#anyways#I am kinning Tara west over so hard rn

well I can’t say I was incorrect about how my night was gonna be
#I’ve maybe been having the worst sleep of my life? Try to go to bed at like midnight and can’t sleep#finally do but then wake up at like 2 (maybe with a fever? Idk. I wasn’t getting chills but I was nauseous and having weird fever dreams)#I take some gravol in the hopes that the nausea will stop#It doesn’t. I wake up again about half an hour later still nauseous#go get a bowl in case I vomit#try to go back to sleep and wake up again about half an hour later#rinse and repeat for like three hours and then I wake up and realize I have to vomit for real#and now here we are. I’m pretty sure I haven’t gotten more than 2 hours of sleep tonight and I don’t feel like I’m gonna get much more#which sucks. Big time#I also still have a rockin sinus headache and throwing up made my throat hurt real bad#anyway. In hell rn but what can you do
