my tumblr experience drastically improved when i realised that i could reply to people recklessly and if they dont respond its no biggie i leave them alone. the vast majority of the time i instead gain another warm kind presence on my dashboard and know that even if they some day disappear into the void i'll still have those exchanges with someone far far away who made my day better for a moment

Yes, social media makes us feel closer to our people without being close to them. However, we need to make sure that we are actually checking in with them on a regular basis. Pick up the phone. Make a call. Send a quick text. Message them. Video chat. I promise you that if they really matter to you, then you won't regret doing this.

Thinking abt Jessica Cruz and the ability to overcome great fear again
#everybody including canon: omg hal is the greatest lantern kyle is the best etc. etc.#HOWEVER OKAY. my vision.....#with like 15 to 20 years of our time i could expand on stuff and give her THE character arc okay#like im just saying yellow lantern jess arc could ACTUALLY be so good bc i would do it as a way to bring her back to the corps stronger and#better and more assured#in herself because like its not about NOT being afraid is about OVERCOMING it and bravery isnt the absence of fear but action in spite of it#et cetera et cetera#like okay i was kidding when i said i think shed be more powerful than kyle or hal#because theyre both totally overpowered in their own way ofc with hal's willpower abilities at like insane levels and kyle's command of the#emotional spectrum being what it is et cetera#BUT. jess has such an interesting relationship with the ring and BEING a green lantern and its like i want to go deeper with that. like down#to the center of the earth deeper. because i feel like shes a character that would have such a great connection to being a lantern and would#especially be the one to embody the 'overcome great fear' phrase at its core#also like THE RELATIONSHIP SHE HAS TO BEING A LANTERN-#all the lanterns have interesting relationships to the corps or what it means to be a gl but for me jess's is just SOOOOOO compelling and#rich and just. being a lantern saved her life. becoming a lantern GAVE her her life BACK. on multiple levels!!!#like quite literally bc of the fact that volthoom died in her body before she got the ring but like before she became a gl she wasn’t living#a life at least not socially. even when she was power ring i still doubt HIGHLY that she even really left the watchtower when not on mission#because like. they glossed over it but the power ring doesnt come off. she was always like that and even with her control over it always a#little primed to blow and i think that's something jess was aware of even if the rest of the jl wasn't as much#bc she like was always reminded of how precarious her power over the power ring could be like it said HORRIBLE things to her all the time!!!#like on power it would be just calling her names like verbal abuse#so even while she had control over the ring it was a tenuous sort of precarious state and she was very aware of that!!!#and i feel like thats what it often comes down to for jess: control. i think its a key part of her character that she desires that sort of#control over herself and her fear due to feeling a lack of it for so long. and THATS why i think that yellow lantern jess has SO much#potential bc it has a huge chance to explore her relationship with the concept of control and harken back to her origin and early days as a#hero.#gosh i went on a tangent here but yeah. LOTS of feelings abt jess#basically a whole meta in the tags tbh#jessica cruz

Not a fully formed thought, just something that's been rattling around in my brain, but — there's something very interesting to me about the general similarities and differences between shonen and shojo isekai trends. If isekai is (nowadays) mostly fantasy-fullfillment, I think the fantasies in question say something of the audiences to which they're targeted.
A random guy who's dropped into his favourite fantasy world and immediately becomes a badass hero who can do anything versus a random girl who gets reincarnated as the antagonist of her favourite story and now has to try to avoid the fate that she knows awaits her. Something something self-insert escapism, but also the betterment of the self portrayed in two different ways — the gaining of power and status (effortlessly, most of the time) in contrast to the improvement of interpersonal relationships. Hm.

I am friendless.
Friendlessness has crept into my life so steadily, so relentlessly, that even writing the word feels like a strange admission—something I'd never have imagined a decade ago. Back then, I had friends. I was lit with ambition, starting a career that seemed like the start of a long climb. I had drive, independence, and an undeniable sense of direction. But somewhere along the way, things blurred, and that clarity eroded. So now, I'm here, sorting through the years, trying to map out where it all went wrong.
In high school, I was already an outsider. I didn’t belong, not really, and I didn’t try hard to change that. They had their worlds, and I had mine, so I stayed distant, watching their conversations from the outside, feeling the sting of being separate. When I tried to blend in, it felt forced. It felt like I was wearing a fragile mask. Still, a part of me felt compelled to keep trying, to at least pretend. I laughed along, sat at the edge of their circles, joined the conversations, though they left me feeling hollow.
College was my reset. I made a conscious choice to try, to change, to be “one of them” for once. I mimicked the ways of people I admired, those who seemed confident, well-liked. I learned the laughs, the glances, the postures that could make someone more approachable. And it worked, at least on the surface. My life started filling with the color and noise I had longed for—stories shared late into the night, plans made with people I found inspiring, infectious, even.
But the mask had its price. Some connections were real, but others, I realize now, were as flimsy as my attempts to keep up. I spent myself on people who were self-centered, toxic, and exhausting, but that high of being “liked,” of being wanted in a group, kept me going. There was a thrill in it, a strange power. For once, I felt polished, put together. I had a purpose, a path that felt justified.
Then, somewhere along the way, something in me snapped, took a complete 180. I withdrew, cutting people off with a coldness I didn’t fully understand. I convinced myself I didn’t need them, that with graduation looming, it didn’t matter. Maybe it was the books I read, maybe it was a new urge to explore solitude, independence, some untapped “artist” identity I thought I needed to embrace. The experiment was over. Or so I thought.
Looking back, I see how I convinced myself of a lie. While I still love solitude, crave it even, I know that this version of myself is incomplete. There’s a part of me that longs for connection just as deeply as it longs to be left alone. It’s hard to reconcile these two sides: the part of me that wants isolation and the part that wants to be noticed, understood, maybe even loved. I want to sit alone with my books, my thoughts, my creations, and yet I want to be out in the world, laughing, connecting, sharing stories until morning.
It’s taken me years to see how I let myself fall into this trap, believing I was fine on my own, that needing people was a weakness. I became a “lone wolf,” I told myself, someone strong enough to walk away from connections. But I went too far, let it solidify until it became who I was—or thought I was.
Now I’m here, trying to piece it all together, feeling like I’ve forgotten how to reach out, how to reconnect with those I once held close. After years of solitude, resentment, and stubbornness, I’ve grown so jaded that even being around others feels foreign. There’s a bitterness I carry, an aura of failure, and I know it seeps into every interaction, whether I intend it to or not.
So, this is my work now, my cocoon phase, where I rebuild. I need to unravel the knots of isolation and pride, and to face the parts of me that I buried along the way. To grow, I need to start small: forgiving myself, for one. For the mistakes, the years I lost to stubborn independence, the damage done. I need to learn that connection is not weakness, that reaching out is not defeat. Vulnerability is strength, the courage to bridge the gaps I let form.
This means accepting invitations even when the discomfort feels sharp. It means reaching out, sometimes awkwardly, to people I once shut out, not with grand gestures but simple words. I’ve missed you. How have you been? I’ll relearn the art of conversation, of shared interests, of showing up without pretending. And I need to balance it all with boundaries to stay authentic, to resist slipping back into the masks of before.
There’s no undoing the past, but I can commit to growth from here. With each connection I rebuild, with each moment of vulnerability, I can reclaim pieces of myself I thought I’d lost. And maybe, if I’m lucky, I’ll find that this time, the connections I build will be rooted in something real.

aouuugh my uterus......
#long long day at work codeine wasnt helping with cramps and my meds are less effective on my period :(#ive been doing okay most of the day tho just starting feeling kind of miserable omw home bc such a long wait at the bus stop in pain#and im kind of lonely at the moment but wont be able to climb tomorrow bc of cramps so thats my main social source gone :(#and it always feels worse at home bc if im having a hard time like in physical pain or feeling down my roommate cant rly handle it#like she cant rly be in the room with me the headphones go straight on. which is ok im realising its just how her type of autism works#so im trying not to get as upset at her abt it. with varying degrees of success but it just takes time#i mean i dont get upset AT her like ik its not her fault and i dont want her feeling like it is. I keep it internal + cry once im alone#just different social needs n boundaries innit. we're a bit incompatible is all#but its still hard. I'd like support from other ppl when I'm struggling i mean i think thats a fairly normal thing to want#but of the friends I would be comfortable talking to abt how i feel none of them have that kind of emotional availability#which again is ok like its not on them. and im very capable of dealing w my shit myself one way or another so its not a Need#but idk. it would just be nice. I feel like I've had to be so independent most of my teenage and adult life and I wish I could take a#break from that sometimes. even just a hug would be nice man#sorry i always come on here and talk abt the same problems... well youll see me do it again no doubt abt that 🫠#ughh and i feel so guilty for wanting things ppl cant give even though i know its not really my fault either and im allowed to want things#and i dont cross boundaries or make them feel bad abt it. i really hope i dont anyway. but still ahhh...#its so hard for me to feel connected to anyone if they cant rly engage w me emotionally at all like its a non negotiable#factor into closeness and trust for me and i get so frustrated bc i feel so distant and alienated from the ppl i care abt most#and ik i overreact bc of my rsd so maybe its just that its probably not even a real issue. but its real to me bc im the one who gets upset#man. anyway its okay just a really really long day. im gonna wash my dishes and then shower#and finish my book. maybe i should play some dead cells i miss it. i dont really want to think abt how i feel anymore#maybe ill see if anyones free to hang out tmr evening so i dont have to feel as lonely even if i cant leave the house after work#all good nice to have a plan anyway. done sniffling. my hot water bottle is helping thr cramps a littlr i think#.diaries#oh i dont think its helping actually ow. i took more codeine an hour ago why doesnt it do anything. not fairrr 😭

Faith It Forward
October is National Substance Abuse Prevention Month, and a story from the Fall 2024 Alcade alumni magazine, from the University of Texas, my alma mater, resonated with me. It’s the story of Jas Sethi, who turned his grief into a meaningful mission. After losing his sister, his only sibling, Simran, to suicide at the age of 19 in 2022, the 25-year-old lawyer has the ability to transform “tragedy…

#why would you say something so controversial and yet so brave#he needs someone who makes him feel ok with doing sex badly!!!#once he realizes he doesn’t have to be perfect and starts having fun he’ll get better!#but until then…#someone save him#911 ABC#mister cow eyes#I guess the question is also what we’re defining as ‘good in bed’#I think he’s good at what he’s expected to be good at#because a good grade in sex is normal to want and possible to achieve#but I don’t think he blows anyone’s mind. least of all his own#my read on his girlfriends (minus Shannon - she’s always the exception) staying with him despite his emotional distance#and Marisol especially centering it on their sex life#is that he is out of this world pretty and charming#he has giant muscles and a cute son he adores and SAVES people#and is very very good at wearing the good boyfriend face#that’s the image he puts out and that’s what they cling to#and when they’re in bed he doesn’t have to worry about keeping up the social part of the image#I don’t think he’s chatty with his partners (at least Ana and Marisol) during sex#and afterwards he can sink into the afterglow#‘see how connected we are?’#without actually revealing much of himself (he thinks)#and Ana and Marisol want to keep the Eddie they’ve all constructed in their heads#and if he seems happiest to be with them when they’re fucking and not talking?#good in bed could be mind blowing orgasms; it could be assuring his partners that he wants them under his skin

The Music Fan "Attractor Factor": Building a Loyal Fan Base
Introduction
In today's competitive music industry, attracting and retaining a loyal fan base requires more than just great music. It's about creating a connection with your audience on multiple levels. This comprehensive guide explores the "Attractor Factor"—key elements that draw music fans to their favorite artists. Whether you're an emerging artist or a seasoned performer, these strategies will help you build a devoted following.
1. Emotional Connection
Music has an unparalleled ability to evoke emotions, and fans often form deep connections with songs that resonate with their personal experiences and feelings.
Lyrics and Themes: Relatable and meaningful lyrics can create a powerful bond between the artist and the listener. Fans are drawn to songs that speak to their hearts and reflect their own stories.
Mood and Atmosphere: The overall mood of the music—be it uplifting, melancholic, or energetic—attracts fans seeking specific emotional experiences. Crafting songs that evoke the desired emotion can significantly enhance fan engagement.
2. Authenticity and Relatability
In an age where authenticity is highly valued, fans are attracted to artists who come across as genuine and relatable.
Personal Stories: Sharing personal anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stories makes artists more relatable. Whether through interviews, social media posts, or lyrics, opening up about your journey helps fans connect on a deeper level.
Engagement: Direct interaction with fans through social media, live streams, and other platforms fosters a sense of authenticity. Responding to comments, participating in Q&A sessions, and showing appreciation for fan support can go a long way in building loyalty.
3. Image and Branding
A distinctive and appealing image or brand identity is crucial for attracting and retaining fans.
Visual Aesthetics: Album art, music videos, and stage design contribute to an artist’s visual identity. A unique and consistent visual style helps in making a memorable impression.
Consistency: A consistent brand message across all platforms, from social media profiles to merchandise, ensures that fans recognize and remember your brand. Consistency builds trust and familiarity, encouraging fans to stay engaged.
4. Community and Belonging
Fans often seek a sense of community and belonging, which can be fostered through various means.
Fan Clubs and Groups: Organized fan clubs or online communities where fans can connect and share their passion are powerful tools for building loyalty. These communities provide a space for fans to interact with each other and feel part of something bigger.
Live Events: Concerts, meet-and-greets, and other live events offer opportunities for fans to connect with the artist and fellow fans in person. These experiences can create lasting memories and deepen the emotional bond with the artist.
5. Innovation and Uniqueness
Fans are attracted to artists who offer something unique and innovative.
Unique Sound: A distinctive musical style or sound that sets the artist apart from others is a key attractor. Experimenting with different genres and sounds can help in developing a unique identity.
Creative Projects: Innovative approaches to music production, such as concept albums or multimedia projects, can captivate fans and keep them engaged. Pushing creative boundaries often leads to increased interest and admiration from fans.
6. Consistent Quality
Maintaining a high standard of quality in music production and performance is essential for keeping fans loyal.
Quality Releases: Consistently releasing high-quality music, whether singles, albums, or EPs, ensures that fans have something to look forward to. High production values and well-crafted songs contribute to an artist’s credibility and reputation.
Live Performances: Delivering exceptional live performances that meet or exceed fans’ expectations can create a lasting impression. Great live shows not only attract new fans but also strengthen the loyalty of existing ones.
7. Social and Cultural Influence
Artists who reflect or influence social and cultural trends can attract a dedicated fan base.
Social Commentary: Music that addresses social issues or reflects cultural movements can resonate deeply with fans. Songs with meaningful messages often become anthems for causes and communities, attracting passionate supporters.
Trendsetting: Being at the forefront of musical trends or fashion can make an artist more attractive to fans. Embracing and setting trends shows that the artist is dynamic and relevant, which is appealing to fans looking for the next big thing.
8. Collaborations and Features
Collaborations with other popular artists can attract new fans and keep existing fans engaged.
Cross-genre Collaborations: Working with artists from different genres can help reach a broader audience. These collaborations introduce your music to fans of the other artist, potentially converting them into your own fans.
Guest Appearances: Featuring popular artists on tracks or as part of live performances can draw in their fan bases. These collaborations add variety and excitement, keeping fans engaged and interested.
Conclusion
Building a loyal fan base requires a multifaceted approach, focusing on emotional connections, authenticity, strong branding, and consistent quality. By leveraging these key elements of the Attractor Factor, artists can cultivate a dedicated following that supports their career for years to come. Start implementing these strategies today to enhance your connection with your fans and grow your music career.
