I feel like I just saw a meta about how Steve may or may not be unable to take baths as a result of his history of, y'know, crsshing a plane straight into arctic waters, but I can't find it now--and now I'm thinking about how his PTSD probably does interweave with water and bathing but maybe it's, on good days, at least, attached specifically to cold water.

So, he can have a nice, steaming hot bath after a mission to relax his muscles, but if he accidentally falls asleep in the tub and wakes up a few hours later with the water gone cold? Then, all bets are off and he's waking up with a surge, hyperventilating until he's dizzy while his memories of what it was like to first wake up after being thawed overlaid by his existencial nightmares of being frozen entirely in ice, unable to move, unable to scream, unable to do anything but feel ice-cold down to his bones, crushed by the weight of frozen water and by the loneliness of being imprisoned in an unmarked grave.

Oh, Steve.

TES fest day 6: abandoned

In the grief of supposedly losing her brother, Lilanwe certainly made some choices. She joined the Worm Cult, becoming a much more cold and cynical person. Granted, it wasn't entirely Auredil's fault for what happened to him, but I don't know that she'll ever really forgive him for leaving her behind.

Why does it feel like I never have enough time to do anything? I’m constantly plagued with decision paralysis and I’m certain it’s because I have so many things I want to focus on but which fucking one?!

Then I do none of them.

You know what the worst feeling I've been having lately is? Wanting more than anything to get back into Actual Art again but finding a sudden anxiety that stops me. Even if I'm still as capable as I was, it's the mental block. It's why I've all but kept commissions closed for this whole time: this overwhelming fear of letting people down. Especially in times as troubled as these, where money is tight, and patience is thin. I've always been blessed with such patient and considerate commissioners, but I would hate to test people because of my malfunctioning brat of a brain.

I just wish it came to me as easily as it did before the massive burnout/medication. But it's up to me to come up with my own motivation. And it's ME.

Anyway. Thanks as always for sticking around despite... all of this. I'll get back on the horse soon.

yknow whatever happens it's still crazy that despite how incredibly rigged the elections were, despite fidesz scheming and making their own candidate drop out to make extra sure karigeri loses, despite fidesz LITERALLY shipping illegal voters in, despite the insane amount of lying and fraud and corruption in the vote count. karigeri still won. like literally despite all of that. and the only way they can make him lose is to very publicly commit fraud because they know we can't do anything about it. like it all already took so many tricks that now they literally had to abandon all pretense of legitimacy and fully just come out and say yeah, this was fraudulent from the start but somehow you motherfuckers won anyway so we're gonna have to take extra measures. there's something reassuring about just how much this fuckass government has to do to keep people down;;

I really try to not compare myself to other authors but sometimes it’s really fucking hard.

I can’t articulate it, but it gets to me that, outside of Spock and I think Tuvok, being logical and regulating emotions isn’t something that Vulcans are shown to just endure, the same way they endure lower temperatures for other species, or higher oxygen for other species, or anything else that has to be incredibly uncomfortable at best to painful at worst that they just endure

The vibe I get from it is that a majority of Vulcans enjoy it, they like being logical, maybe they didn’t get a choice in being logical as kids, but unlike the select few like Sybok, they don’t seem to be resentful that they were raised like that at all

This isn’t just something they’re all forced to do now to prevent their emotions from causing their species’ end, dedicating themselves to logic brought them inner peace

You know it’s rough out here when you see people make the most illogical lucrative decisions business wise

i found this lore entry recently and have not stopped thinking about it since. it is HYSTERICALLY funny to me that fandaniel's villain origin story was just being a fuckin boomer

One of few great minds in a land that had seen the slow, yet steady numbing of its people's intelligence, Amon long lamented the sorry state of Allag , concentrating his early scientific efforts on developing medicines to increase mental capacity . He soon realized that it was not knowledge that the Allagans lacked. If anything, they had too much. What his people lacked was a leader. With a renewed sense of focus, Amon shifted his studies to the field of vivimancy, and soon was conducting experiments on his own flesh in order to attain his final goal - the resurrection of Xande the First.

I've had enough character development for this year. Can we skip to the beach filler episode?

my biggest fear is coming to life with every passing day (turning into my mother)

[llycaons]

also it is EVIL EVIL that you have to provide references and have a credit score of like 650 to literally have a place to live. this is what happens when necessities are treated like businesses...'oh it's their property they have to protect their investment' BITCH!! people need places to live no matter what! I hate this country
