Reassuring Your Nervous System: A Comedic Guide to Calm Your Inner Prey

Hey there, fellow humans! So, you've found yourself in a bit of a pickle—your nervous system is in full-on "Fight or Flight" mode, convinced that a pack of saber-toothed tigers is prowling outside your door. Spoiler alert: it’s just your neighbor's overly enthusiastic dog. But how do we calm that wild nervous system down and let it know you’re not on the menu? Let’s dive into some hilariously factual strategies to give your body the memo it so desperately needs.

Step 1: Talk It Out—Seriously

First things first, communication is key! Sit down in a comfortable space (preferably not a corner with suspicious shadows) and have a heart-to-heart with your nervous system. Say something like, “Hey there, buddy! I know you’re feeling jumpy, but I assure you, no one is hunting me for sport. They only want to play fetch. Talk about a misunderstanding!”

Step 2: Breathing Techniques—Because Hyperventilating Isn’t Cool

Did you know that deep breathing can signal your brain that it’s safe to chill out? Instead of taking short, panicky breaths that make you feel like you’re about to faint, try the "5-7-8" technique: Inhale for 5 seconds, hold for 7, and exhale for 8. This technique is so effective, you might even convince your nervous system that the worst case scenario involves your laundry piling up instead of being chased by ancient predators.

Step 3: Visualization—The Power of Imagination

Next, let’s engage your imagination. Picture yourself lounging on a beach, sipping on a coconut drink, while seagulls serenade you with soft melodies. If you can’t handle the pressure of seagulls, imagine a room full of puppies playing with yarn. Your nervous system might perk up and think, “Wow, this doesn’t feel like a predator’s den at all!”

Step 4: Get Moving—But Not from Danger!

Exercise is another great way to tell your nervous system, “Chill out; we’re not being hunted!” Engage in some physical activity, whether it's a brisk walk or an impromptu dance party in your living room. Remember, running away from your problems is not the goal here. Instead, think of it as giving your nervous system a metaphorical high-five, saying, “Look, I’m alive and well!”

Step 5: Laughter—The Best Medicine (And Distraction)

Finally, laughter! Nothing calms a jittery nervous system like a good dose of humor. Watch a funny movie, read a hilarious blog (wink, wink), or listen to a stand-up comedy routine. Your nervous system will be so busy laughing, it won’t even remember that it thought you were a target for a friendly game of “Survival of the Fittest.”

Bonus Tip: Consult the Experts

If your nervous system remains convinced you’re still being hunted (maybe it’s just a paranoid nervous system), consider consulting a professional. Therapists can help you untangle those anxious thoughts, and they promise they’re not trying to hunt you either!

Conclusion: It's All in Your Head (Literally)

At the end of the day, remember that your nervous system is just doing its job, albeit a bit too well. By employing communication, deep breathing, visualization, movement, and laughter, you can reassure your body that you’re safe and sound. So go ahead, take a deep breath, and remind your nervous system that there are no hunters here—just you, a comfy couch, and a good old-fashioned Netflix binge. Happy calming!

So there you have it, folks! Your guide to telling your nervous system to take a well-deserved break. Now go out there, stay calm, and remember: the only thing you’re hunting for is your next snack! 🥨🍿

You know I was just thinking about how women tend to describe their partners as "sun" and men tend to describe their partners as "moon" - and I think, it's because women always underestimate themselves and are criticized for everything and most of the times they have to downplay their achievements to make their partners feel better, so when they are in love with the right person who supports them and wants them to have their moment, they bloom like a flower, under the sun - someone who makes their eyes shine, someone who makes them happy. Their sunshine.

On the other hand men tend to suppress their emotions, ("Why are you crying - just go to the gym and work it out of your body like a man") most of them are depressed because of how little they get to express themselves and who do we go to when we have no one?? THE MOON. the moon is every depressed person's friend and that's why men see their partners as the moon, someone they can be vulnerable with, someone who sees the dark side and still stays -

(It's probably all bullshit but this explanation just makes me feel better )

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.

rolling over, half asleep, in the middle of the night and when you stretch your arm out you end up smacking ghost in the face, and you can’t help but fling yourself back with a loud gasp before realizing it’s just your man, who yet again, snuck inside and cozied up to you without stirring you (bc he hates waking up his baby) bc he was able to come home early and chose to surprise you. and after you relax and begin apologizing for hitting him you hear his low, growly chuckle as he sits up to pull you into his chest, kissing your forehead before mumbling into your sweet smelling hair “it’s all right lovie, di’n’t mean to scare you.”

Prompt:

After Red Hood stopped killing and someone leaked footage hinting that he's the second Robin, he expected to fight for every morsel of territory, for everybody to desert him and the murder attempts to triple.

And, well. It's not like he doesn't find himself in a rigged warehouse on Monday, walking off that one explosion with singes on his back. It's not like on Wednesday, a bullet pierces through a hole in his armour and he's losing half his blood in an alley. And sure, someone takes advantage of him throwing his helmet away on Friday (he was out of grenades and needed a bigger bomb) to fear gass him, but it's fine, he can function normally under fear gass nowadays.

Except. Except nobody deserts him. By Monday, the attempts have completely stopped. He walks into a meeting with his men and sees his goons' hands won't stop shaking, and even his lieutenant won't look him in the eyes.

Jason is confused, and so are the other bats, but soon the rumours reach their ears: you can't go after the Red Hood, because no matter what you do, once you've targeted him it's over, like a dog with a bone, he'll get you eventually- no matter how you shoot or how many explosives you use. It doesn't matter that the Red Hood doesn't kill, because the Red Hood doesn't die.

God, I love giving blowjobs. I love giving someone pleasure like that. Licking, kissing and sucking their cock to find out which spots draw out the best sounds. Stroking them up and down with my mouth and hands. Letting them push my head down so they can feel the back of my throat on their dick. Gagging and hearing them groan at how good it feels. Licking their balls while I stroke their cock. Feeling them tighten up just before they fill my mouth with cum. Holy fuck, it gets me so turned on to have my mouth put to use like that.

I think that Daniel should get a little cat that he names something cute. like typo. and it should be the silliest dumbest creature in the world, and Armand should be so jealous of that cat that it still somehow makes him look stupid in comparison.

he's just like. you, feline companion to my beloved. most loathsome of creatures. i see through your foul ruse. my daniel may be taken in by your charms, but i will not be played for the fool. you seek to replace me in his esteems, and you may yet distract him for a time. but he will see the truth of you soon enough. your cruelty. batting him in the face with your dreadful claws while he is trying to rest. begging for your meals at the wicked hours of the morning and night! you will visit no more of these horrors upon him. know this, 'typo.' if you did not bring my daniel such joy i would see you removed from this home and cast out into street like a beggar. i suggest you watch your back.
