8 November 2024 - Friday Field Notes

Got our first snow of the season this week.

Normally, I don't go off trail with this much accumulation, but one of my coworkers got to see three Coyotes take down a Pronghorn. We went to check out the carnage but were thwarted by the water in the creek.

This creek has been dry for the past two months, but it only took two days worth of precipitation to fill back up.

It was a lovely walk nonetheless. Don't have pictures but spotted a Great Blue Heron perched on a Cottonwood. Also got a stopover from a flock of Canada Geese.

I spent most of Tuesday planting seeds in the native plant garden at work. It was a gorgeous day and with the forecasted snow this weekend, it was the perfect time to do fall sowing. Mostly seeded species that were already established in the garden, included a couple extras too though. The freeze thaw cycles over winter help break seed dormancy for many native plants, and are required to help them germinate in spring. Because the climate is so temperamental where I'm at, seed dormancy is a survival mechanism and prevents plants from germinating at times that aren't optimal.

Hopefully, the stuff that was still green does okay. Not sure how much die back they experience with the fluctuating temperatures, some plants stay surprisingly green through the winter given enough precipitation. This Prairie Coneflower didn't quite get the memo. Gotta flower while the flowering is good, I suppose.

The plantings in the garden are rather sparse rn, so I'm hoping to fill out the garden so it looks more like a chunk of native prairie which will help deter herbivory.

The Rabbits and Pronghorn are awfully cute but they keep trying to eat everything lol. And I'm not installing a fence on principle, so more plants it is.

Coyote tracks and legs for days.

I am beyond proud of this. I've been working away on this for what I realized was actually a week now. Caretaker has been an OC that I've had since middle school, actually, only starting to develop her into an Overwatch OC back in July 2019.

I dreamed of her one day being a real character in Overwatch, but I will settle for this, of course. I'm overjoyed and teary-eyed that this is real. That Caretaker is real.

I'm five centimeters taller than my housewarden, and yet he fills me with terror.

He's adorable when he's not about to use "Off with your head" on me, though.

Thank you for your confession!

Im like 6 inches taller than him and I’m still scared of him 😨

@wheeboo still can't believe we're moots. anyway, i literally just clicked on this one solely for the captions, but i guess i just gravitated to seungkwan naturally. we're all shocked by capitalism, but ate rani would be the most shocked by it. (she'd hate gas prices here in the ph)

@weird-bookworm these are all gonna be gose pictures, huh? /j this was literally her with me earlier this afternoon. like i was all "should i let the intrusive thoughts win", she came into the replies, then on discord HAHAHAHAH im so sorry you have to deal with my nonsense, but i am stuck with you like oxygen to blood cells.

@kyeomyun she's the homie frfr actually. jadaders would tbh go "that's unfortunate" with the biggest smile on her face if there's any minor inconvenience that happens to either you or her. it's either in a way where girlie is fr amused by your misfortune, or this is a call for help. she's going thru it @ school so hopefully she gets a break soon ^^

@i-luvsang just for you, i'm getting an atz meme (and also bc its their 5th debut anniv <3). feel like marimoon would get the nearest stuffed animal in a shop, call for me, and do this with the blankest face they can manage. i'd lose my mind ofc i laugh at everything but especially shit like this. it's deadpan humor, i swear

[img text's rough tr: i know you're getting nervous about tomorrow, sis] we'd probably be the type of homies who'd spam e/o on discord about a project we're grouped up in. or an exam. or a performance, one or the other. but we end up doing great anyway B))) we're cool like that

Guys! Guys! I finally got inspired to make money lololol

I'm still going to see if my idea works out. If it does, then I'll start the project which is making some "things" for the new year celebration (Nowrouz) so it'll be a one month job until Nowrouz is over.

Hopefully I can sell them and make some monayyyyy

Your girl is going to be working for the first time. If the stores don't get convinced to buy my stuff, then I'll have to take them to the street and yell "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LOOK OVER HERE, I HAVE FRESH (item) MADE WITH LOVE! COME BUY COME BUY I'LL GIVE YOU A DISCOUNT!" 🤣😭 it'll be an experience, tho xD

Wish me luckkkkk :3

How I expect to live after the project is over: 💸💸💸

Btw, since it apparently needs to be said, here some tips on how to actually support someone dealing with a delusion/psychosis. This is from my personal experience as well as advice found online, so might not be perfect, but it should hopefully serve as a decent guideline.

CW: Brief examples of delusions that may trigger unreality.

Do NOT insist that said person is delusional/psychotic if they are not open to the idea. A small “do you think this could be a delusion?” may be okay. What is not okay is being pushy about it if they’ve rejected the idea. This will only make them trust you less.

DO be sympathetic. For example if someone were to say “I know I’m being watched.” You should say something along the lines of “I’m sorry you’re going through that, that sounds really scary. Is there anything I can do to help?” You have to understand that in the moment their delusion is reality to them, whether they recognize it’s a delusion or not. Treat it with as much sympathy and kindness as you would for something thats real to you.

DO avoid indulging in the delusion. Although you typically shouldn’t outright deny the delusion, feeding into it usually isn’t helpful either. Here’s an example: someone says “I know the world is going to end soon.” You SHOULDN’T say “Thats terrible! Is there a way we can stop it, or is there anything you wanna do before it ends?” You SHOULD say “That’s terrible! I can’t imagine how stressful it must be carrying that weight. Is there anything fun you wanna do to distract yourself?”

DO use distraction techniques. Changing the subject of conversation and finding fun things to do with this person is a great help in taking their mind off the delusion. My psychosis is most manageable when I’m with my friends or engaging with something entertaining like a show or game. You can find a lot of distraction techniques online or by talking to a psychologist!

Okay lastly, this is not universal. Everyone is different and therefore will have different needs and experiences. If you have a loved one with psychosis the best thing you can do is ask them what they need from you when they’re struggling with a delusion. If any changes need to made please lemme know as I want this to be helpful!

All the love to everyone with psychosis, all the systems, and especially all the psychotic systems out there!!

I am so beyond grateful to these two lovely individuals for helping me with this. Before I eventually revamped Caretaker's story, I had a comic about this moment dating back to April 2020. I've had this key point of her story more or less figured out for over four years, and to finally have it completed and showcased here means so much.

I will have a separate reblog breaking this down and talking about why certain things were done and why, generally just being nerdy about my OC Caretaker.
