@petermorwood now that you say it, there was that time a few weeks ago where I would probably had felt more secure with a blunt object in my hand...
#Road safety#PSA#Bricks#Damn fight or flight#My automatic response is freeze#But more than that damn that driver who didn't realize that a car stopping at a crosswalk despite no trafic *might* mean something#Luckily for me she was going pretty slow...

They're still there. They're in there. They're in they're body but yet they're so far gone. the infections like a parasite and yet two was trying to fight it, they were scared and they wanted gaty. Not just to protect her but to feel the person that they felt close and comfortable around, and to take them both to the couch, they could've went for anyone. But they went for GATY. they could've killed her but they didn't. There's something so strangely endearing about that. Truly. Even when they're voice is being used to lure gaty in a sense I feel two geniunely wanted to help, they're so far gone, the little details, not just with how they move but with how they SPEAK. they're practically the host for a parasite and yet. They're still there.
#osc#object shows#tpot#tpot 9#tpot 9 spoilers#two tpot#tpot gaty#something about this episode makes me so unnerved. maybe it's the voice acting. maybe its the change of tone.#or maybe ITS THAT DAMN SOUNDTRACK#it sounds so eerie. it isnt even necessarily even scary. theres nothing DIRECTLY scary about it#but you wanna know something? its so simple. its almost. too. simple#its too quiet. its far too quiet#theres so much left for our brains to just fill in the blanks#its like your own living hell. it really is one of those ost’s that sends off your flight or fight instincts#theres nothing and yet theres something there. you feel it in your bones. it sends a chill down your spine and its just .. nothing.#its nothing but you. your making it up and your brain is filling in the blanks and it's. terrifying.

had a cool dream where i was a monster hybrid and got to lose it on someone who absolutely deserved it. there's a lot more context and cool parts but I just woke up and am very late 🙈 but omg. i feel like i woke up from a mini eclipse (iykyk minus That part). do NOT hurt the abuelita ☝🏾😤😤😤💢 no one else is going to take your shit anymore put her down!!!!!!!!!! 🚶🏾♀️ we're not waiting for compliance, you don't even have time to react or run and now it's too late.
#i do love a good crunch and squelch and a cathartic release.#they'd been terrorizing everyone the whole damn time 🙄#i was like. idk kinda like a dinosaur(s)/snake hybrid with a vague sense of human thinking atp#and i was in fight or flight mode and was going to try quietly sneaking away until ms abuela started getting hurt#then it's like a flip switched and it was overwhelming‚ unstoppable and glorious#i don't remember the last time i had a dream about becoming something else 🧐 except this one where i had tentacles like an#octopus and i could feel how they move and it was so fucking strange feeling the movement of body parts you've never had#the inverse of phantom limb sensations. not that i can do it on purpose but i wish i had more monster dreams :^}#they r always interesting to experience. i love being a creature =ω=

I genuinely believed they were fucking with us again and it’d be a ‘best of oasis’ special box and now them fuckers have to annocue dates that are smack dab in the middle of my exams season 😭
#and frankly bit scared that if I buy/even get tickets they’re gonna cancel last second cause of a new fight and I’ve wasted flights#damn catfish playing in Tottenham same day as them in Wembley might be a negative ticket sale 😂

There was a moment this morning, when in the middle of building up to a one-sided rant against all of us at the breakfast table, but concentrating specifically on David, my sister cut him off when he tried to explain why his tile saw was outside and hadn't been moved in two months, and he tried explaining that it was waterproofed for construction work and she immediately cut that off by saying "OH IM SORRY IM JUST A STUPID GIRL, IM SO STUPID AND DONT KNOW ANYTHING" and dead ass that was not what the dude was saying at all; but, frustratingly, he and none of us ever like, push back on that stuff, and it all goes to placating someone into saying that no she's right everything is what she says it is, because only SHE thinks of this stuff; Only SHE is constantly thinking six steps ahead of all of us, and she is the only one who ever is thinking about taking care of two adults and three minors; Later in the same rant it was keeping all six people in the house alive. This, because there have been chores on the whiteboard for a month that they haven't done, or David hasn't done, or I would have done if I had help but there was nobody available because they're all at derby. And it breeds resentment and contempt. Just constantly simmering there, underneath the, like, tightness in my chest, like fuck you, lady. You are the ONLY one who ever thinks of anything ever, fuck you?
But we, I, just can't say that, we have to say no, you're right, no, you're not being an asshole.
#The like#Feeling that if I was a bird Id fly so far far away is so real#But honestly where to go#Its just like#We all have to sit there looking glumly at our fried rice#one or two of us clearly in fight or flight because SHE needs to be HEARD#And nobody is LISTENING and nobody CARES but she is the ONLY ONE#Im in fight or flight right now twenty minutes later#And thinking would even a walk somewhere help#I cannot live here much longer man I need to find somewhere else this year#Even if it is a god damn refrigerator box under an overpass#Like it escalates right? It just gets worse#Because why aren't these things getting done? is it maybe that like yall commit 50 HOURS A WEEK TO DERBY#Like nobody was home to DO these whiteboard tasks at all yesterday from 8 am to 5 pm?#Ugh#I dunno#I didnt mean to write so much here I just have nowhere else to put this#Amd am trying to will my chest to stop being tight and breathe#Being constantly triggered at 9 in the morning over dumbshit is so so fun#My life#Sorry#Long tags are long#Long post nobody read

Hi! Hi. Guess who's in. Love y'all.
#so i guess i am allowed to post about the plurality without Gail deleting it now#i wish that was a good thing#anyhow; we've been carouseling!#Gail can't keep a grip on the front for the life of him#usual state of affairs is that he fronts most of the time#and me and Fenn cofront with him periodically#sometimes we front without him for a bit but not for as long as he can go without us#frankly Gail's blessed existence is the only reason why we got HoR as polished and published as it is#i don't think SP is going out on time gang; let's aim for May 2026 should our world not collapse by then#current state of affairs is that I'M in charge mostly and fuck damn i don't want it#i want the guy who gets stuff done in or at least the guy who likes to be here#Fenn is not able to make firm grabby hands for the front either which is not usual he's the second most common guy in#and ALABASTER has been showing up#which happens once in a very blue moon#she's a sweet kid nowadays but how do i address this delicately#i don't want her to have to deal with this because her traditional answer to stress is “what if we stopped existing”#and i want to say that i'm not tempted by her old default solution but FUCK#don't worry#we will be fine#i just needed to bitch about it a little bit#i'll make it fine#please help me i'm the “fight or flight” part of us leaning mostly on “fight”#i don't have the necessary skills to outpace slow tigers#don't haul me out until an actual apocalypse happens

Sometimes I think about how, back when the roster was much bigger, me and my old friend group all picked out WTL characters that we thought the others were the most like, and almost universally people thought Druid was the most like me. That probably should've been my first clue that none of them knew a single thing about me, but hindsight is 20/20
I also often think about how, after several days of going through things that had happened to me over the last four or so years, I was told 'You seem like a person who wants to be understood', and it hit me that until then, I had never met someone who ever really got me. Now that I have, I could never settle for less.
#for the record Sven is like two steps away from being my kinsona#like it's almost embarrassing lmao#i think between him and Leo (with his edits over the years) you can find 70-ish percent of what makes up me as a person#idk man I just. People think Im so aggressive and obtuse#and like. yeah when im backed into a corner im not the nicest#but i dont think anyone would be if they're in fight or flight mode and it feels dishonest to judge someone at their most vulnerable#but when im just like.... There and Alive and being my usual nerdy self#which is 99 percent of the time#i am just a Guy in a Room#and people assume the worst of me for it#like damn what about me is so evil and intimidating. please i want to be seen as soft and kind and genuine for once in my life#i wanna be able to express myself without it being seen as an attack or rude or aggressive#it wasnt until recently where i really started noticing this and by extension getting peeved about it#but i've been so mild-mannered and people-pleasing all my life because i was unknowingly compensating for how people view me#and even with all that bending over backwards it never worked anyway because I was still the weirdo at best and the aggressor at worst#And Im *tired* of that. I'm so tired of it.#I cannot in good faith keep trying to be this un-intimidating flower when people are only gonna see thorns regardless#nugget rambles#text.txt#vent tag#I'll go back to regularly scheduled shitposting soon#Also like clarity on Druid: I project some fears and traumas of mine onto him and he means a lot to me#but in terms of personality he is far nicer and resilient than I would ever be under such circumstances#Druid isn't me but he's someone I wish I had in my life when I needed it. He's someone I wish I could be

Jesus fucking Christ .
#you know when i heard henriette was appearing in lumera's fbs i was really intrigued.#esp w all the character development she's been getting/playing a much more active role#and like. esp A convo she had good lines/insights about why fallen lumera is like that#but jesus christ. f!lumera actually triggers my fight or flight response SO FUCKING BAD. INCREDIBLY fucking tense the Whole Time#crazy fucking fb. lumera is actively freaking me out and when henriette tries talking her down#saying 'i'm a mother too i understand what it's like to want to protect your children'. i don't believe a damn word she's saying.#not even in a character analysis way though i always had trouble placing if henriette is trustworthy#i just. have some sort of skill issue.#anyways uhhh. happy upcoming mothers day. every year it rolls around i'm always either really stressed or really guilty.#i am a normal man. with no problems.
