[cowboy]

I know millenials talking about "adulting" is dumb as hell and cheugy but I'm not gonna lie they were kinda spittin this shit is hard

[pecanwriter]

Me writing a new chapter: oh this one is gonna be SHORT

Me, at 3336 words: alright now we're slowly getting to the part I actually wanted to write about...........

Do you think it could be possible that Desuhiko's overcompensating on all the pervert junk cause he's actually not interested at all? Like. He's said he had self-confidence problems, maybe he's just trying to do what he thinks will make people like him? Or what he thinks is supposed to be normal? Asexual Desuhiko???

I don't personally think it's like that because he said his gloomy kid/lack of confidence was some regular growing up stuff, but ykno what??? I do like what you're saying there, it makes him a bit more interesting, tho i wouldn't put 'being a pervert' in the 'things that will make people like you' category, esp if it's just on a casual level. he did spew some "boys are like that" bs, so you could read into that and say he has some weird internalized ideas about how a guy should behave tho, and that would be an interesting aspect to analyze

and, I am always a supporter of ace headcanons so 🤝 we r shaking hands anon

Mondays are my Friday and for some reason they have been SO HARD lately like I just. Can’t get moving and feel exhausted and I wish I knew what my problem was so I could fix it.

[meow-minola]

wow I'm struggling to be a person who primarily runs a household

[lilsilly1]

Daily Luigi!

BROTHERSHIP SPOILERS!

Words can't explain how much I started sobbing during this scene

The scene:

I don't know, Maybe after more than 40hours playing, the fighting, the tension all that... and there is just this comforting scene of the bros after they jumped off Fortress Zokket, maybe thinking it's the end or that they'll be separated again, but the relief when they see and hear each other just got me like

PLUS THE FACT THAT ITS THE EXACT SAME SCENE FROM THE VERY BEGGINING OF THE GAME WHERE MARIO WAKES UP ALONE (same exact island aswell), BUT THIS TIME HIS BRO IS HERE.

Also I thought I'd finish the game yesterday, but, Nuh uh!!!! still not done.

[slackergami]

Absolutely gutted that we have been robbed of Days Gone 2 and Days Gone 3.

why's the game Days Gone so underrated m8

[beclight]

could we try to make a # for sparklecare leaks? i would like to archive as much as possible as hundreds of never-seen-before images have aired, but scrolling through the main tag is pretty tedious considering there's been 600 posts in under 40hours, most of which are longform text posts. maybe sparkleak/sparkleleak or smth of the kind? it would also be useful for people that do not want spoilers

[trashybat-dot-mp3]

Something a little different

A quick drawing whole im busy with family and revision

I love Emily sm

No one know the extent ill go for this woman

I spent 2 weeks crying over my laptop trying to retreve the 40hour game i had with her after it was gone from my playscreen

And i got it back

what’s aba

ABA stands for applied behavior analysis. It’s a super common and pervasive “treatment”/“intervention” for autistic children-- because they're showing "disruptive" distress behaviors, because their autistic traits are seen as needing to be assimilated to fit into capitalist society, because it's just seen as the thing you do with autistic kids

Basically it tries to change someone’s outward behavior using rewards or punishments. When it was first invented (by the guy also involved in creating conversion therapy!), these included slaps and electric shocks. Today, most of the methods have been made much “friendlier”, but still arguably work to make an autistic child’s behavior easier to deal with, more “normal”, more compliant.

While it often /is/ effective in changing outward behaviors, that says nothing of its potential to teach shame, masking of autistic traits, reliance upon prompts/rewards to do things, teaching that you must always obey authority figures, that your internal feelings are unimportant, the trauma of potentially aversive punishments, the fact that kids as young as 2 get recommended to spend up to 40hours a week in intensive ABA, the fact that it rarely addresses (or even worsens) the actual issues underlying distress behaviors…. and ultimately the message is that disabled people must be changed to fit into abled society, rather than abled society changing.

As that post I reblogged said, it's important to nuance to the discussion beyond "ABA=abuse", especially regarding how so many social forces shape the reality and power and experience of ABA, incl the absence of better types of care.

Maybe Jack Skellington?

I didn’t check for a plaque but if there was one I’m sure the artist will have named this piece something thoughtful but ambiguous. What it is, is what you make of it in your mind.

Identity

I believe it’s the same for people. For two decades I’ve been meeting people who are getting a divorce and a common theme is “I don’t recognize that person.” I heard it again on Thursday. “After 32 years I thought she was happy.”

In dozens of cases, I’ve heard that. I think it’s always been the man. I’ve had plenty of women unburden themselves about their situation but none of them were the surprised party.

I’d reluctantly agreed to appraise the couple’s property but only after speaking with both of them. From my end it feels like I’m interviewing couples to ensure they qualify for my services. I won’t be a part of their fight. I’m not his appraiser or hers.

I spoke with her on the phone before accepting the assignment. It was a friendly conversation but she chose not to be there for the site visit. At the end of my visit, he was thinking about the property he’d just shown me. He talked about the years it had taken to develop it; they’d built it together.

He was particularly fixated on all the hours he’d worked. He’d never worked only a 40hour week. Now he was finding out about…infidelity. “I feel like I don’t know her.” He apologized saying “Sorry, I’m telling you things you don’t need to hear.”

lol he was wearing a thin blue line flag ball cap and a 2nd Amendment t-shirt.

I never acknowledged his statement clothing or his grievances about his marriage but he reached out and shook my hand and thanked me.

He doesn’t know me…I don’t know him. He doesn’t know his wife. I believe, what he knows about himself is mostly the role he inhabits.

It’s the same for all to some extent. You can spend hours of every day in introspection and in the end, you can be sure that who you are is an attempt to be who you think you are and strive to be. You’re a character in a story you tell about yourself to yourself and others.

I think you should always doubt you are who you think you are. I think you should never doubt you don’t know who anyone else is.

I was gifted a free frozen Turkey by the theatre (long story, annual charity thanksgiving giveaway fringe benefit) anyway it being the day to do Turkey dinner here in Canada I’m preparing to cook this sucker with friends

HOWEVER

according to the package this thing needed 36-40hours to defrost. It has been defrosting for about 55hours.

It feels suspiciously unyielding and I have Grave Misgivings
