i told my physical therapist today about how i plan to get a xenomorph tattooed on my hip to highlight my hysterectomy scar, bc when i still had my reproductive organs i likened period cramps etc to having a live-in chestburster, then after surgery the complications that stupid lil ½" bastard scar gave me made it feel like i still had an alien parasite ravaging my innards... so the tattoo will be an homage to all it took to overcome that long painful history, as well as a way to honor my beloved monster wife.

then she shared a story about a close friend of hers who found out she had a tumor the size of a clementine that had been growing in her brain since childhood. it was safely removed & she's fine now, and she got a tattoo of a clementine slice behind her ear near where the tumor had been as a fun little inside joke with herself.

and i think about the long history of medicinal tattooing, and of people using ink to either cover or accentuate past wounds ranging from self harm to cancer to gender transition and everything in between and i just. i love how humans tell stories with our bodies. i love that we get to decorate the shapes that house our souls to reflect our experiences and celebrate our survival and carry what we find beautiful with us for life.

#ctxt #meatsuit renno #tattoos #to be clear i have some stupid ass tattoos with embarrassing stories behind them #and others where the story is just 'idk i thought it would look neat!'#but a lot of them do have something more behind them. whether it's the subject of the tattoo the time & place i got it or who i got it with #it doesn't have to mean anything. but more often than not it does. and even the 'dumb' tattoos are like #ways that i've reaffirmed my bodily autonomy & independence?#i feel more embodied in a body covered in ink. i take better care of the areas of my skin that are tattooed bc my skin is worth caring for #that's true always but it's easier sometimes when i feel like i'm curating a living museum. moisturizing artwork.#applying sunscreen to my life story made flesh #u know how it is

i just spent ages looking for the post, i swear i posted about it when i broke my beloved fish plate like a year ago, but now he's finally back together! i just have to wait a week or so for the resin to cure , and then i can go in and wipe away the excess gold. even though the process was frustrating and VERY time-consuming and i lost motivation halfway through and let it sit on the shelf unfinished for like 14 months, i'm glad i went to the trouble of learning how to actually kintsugi it with resin and gold instead of rushing it with epoxy and mica powder.

the before pics (freshly broken and after the initial gluing):

#kinda wish i'd gotten pics of him when i'd filled in the voids and done all the coats of resin on top and sanded them down #the different types of resin were different colors and after sanding it had kind of a marbled look #the process basically goes like: filing down sharp edges to create a gap for the gold to show #gluing everything back together with resin mixed with flour and water to make it strong and sticky #filling in the voids with resin mixed with fine sawdust to make it strong (this part took the longest bc you can't put the paste on thickly)#creating a uniform surface with resin mixed with (i think) fine clay powder #creating a smooth finish by alternately painting on layers of pure resin and sanding it down once cured #(the resin will wrinkle if applied too thickly or if it's too humid)#(this is also used to smooth out the rough areas that the resin/clay step couldn't fix)#and finally painting on a final layer of resin and applying gold powder and burnishing it slightly #each layer of resin takes about a week to cure #if my apartment was more humid and if i hadn't lost steam i think this would've taken me... three months #and thats assuming i could work on it every weekend #seriously it's only worth doing if it's a piece you really love #alternatively if you didn't care about looks you could just stop after sticking it together but idk how food safe it would be #ALSO. BIG word of warning.#the uncured resin could give you a really nasty painful rash if you touch it with bare skin #it is not a joke #once it's cured tho it's inert

love how the older skaters in the senior division give Yurio encouragement and that each time it pisses Yurio off. JJ is intentionally condescending so that makes sense, but with Viktor and Yuuri they're not even being condescending. Yurio's just dialed in on being a hater... and i love that for him <3

#'plot twist i LOBV you' -Yuuri #'i am going to skin you alive' -Yurio #yuri on ice #sometimes he is a teenager #he's got so much fury in his tiny body. and yet he is also just an earnest lad. i find him sooo funny silly #which he would hate me for!!#I recall a meta post about Otabek being the first one to verbally recognize how hard Yurio devotes himself to skate and I really dig that #like I think Yurio's frustration is justifiably rooted in how little others take him seriously despite his life-consuming dedication #I DO think he is over the top and i enjoy this; for it is entertaining.#but i also think his feelings are genuine and he is a complex little guy.#i'm thinking of him sharing his grandpa's food with Yuuri and being emotionally vulnerable with him at the waterfall #Yurio is a hater on his opponents (and Viktor) but I think on some level he recognizes the genuine care Yuuri+Viktor show him #I think Yurio doesn't understand how they can be encouraging to him while also taking him seriously #Cuz Yurio is so wary of his elders dismissing him #so older skaters being friendly translates in his head as 'they dont think i can beat them / they dont see me as an equal'#But I think when these relationships are removed from that competitive atmosphere Yurio DOES see how they care and he appreciates it.#It would be so sweet to see an older Yurio reflect on this time and realize that Viktor + Yuuri + others DID take him seriously #and just because they were fond of him it doesnt mean they didnt appreciate his talent.#tbh being a young athlete must be such a mindfuck and idk how these bitches do it. send tweet #yuri plisetsky #yoi meta #queue #my words #AWW right after writng this i watched the part where Yurio starts yelling encouragement to Yuuri #who internally tells himself 'i got more stamina than that fuckin Yurio mf' (paraphrasing lol)#they switched love languages <3 cheerleader & hater role reversal

"Your hair is amazing how do you do it?"

Emm I wash it 😅

It's cut with a lot of short layers for volume but literally all I do is wash with shampoo, no conditioner, put salt spray in it when it's wet and let it air dry, it just looks like this naturally 😅

(Bet this is thrilling information if you're only here to see my tits 😝😂)

#sometimes ill use a defuser if i need it dry quick #i also only really brush it before i wash it #if i brush it after its a big frizzy or goes straight #i really should take better care of it but it seems healthy #my hairs natural texture is also pretty dry/wavy so that helps it look fluffy #i dont die it or use heat often so that maybe helps too #been years since i straightened it #i also cut it myself so mind yah business if it looks dodgy 😂#also ive had a fridge/bangs basically my whole life and i dont get the whole 'having bangs is such hard work'#maybe its how i sleep and not having oily skin/hair but 98% of the time I dont need to do anything to it #like some people seem to need to style/wash them daily and mine just vibe #or maybe its because i like the bed head look

wanted to make a little mock post-battle thingy

me @ emmet after years of taking care of a whole battle facility by himself after ingo went missing, and then once ingo came back finally allowed himself to break down and then heal and not put so much stress on himself:

retire and go on vacation

#submas #emmet #kudari #pokemon bw #pokemon legends arceus #pla #kind of #mention anyway #spinning him around and around in my head forever #my art #also this would be his last battle on the doubles line i think #like before he retires #and then he can go and have a different adventure!#i think its good to leave your comfort zone and explore new things especially after something traumatic #it feels like shedding a skin and freeing yourself from the things that have caused you stress and grief #<- nooo im not projecting at all what do you mean #also he's not wearing his hat because after a while i think it would make his head hurt so he takes it off a lot #I JUST THINK THAT PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED A LOT OF GRIEF AND STRESS AND ANXIETY DESERVE A LITTLE BREAK #and he's also about to cry because he realized just how much his friends family and depot agents cared about his well being #theyre sending him off with a bang and all the depot agents battled him on his subway!#and afterwards he finally retires officially and hands gear station down to them i think or something #and and and #:explodes:#if you read this entire thing IM GIVING YOU SOUP!!!

Hello praying people, I'm not doing well and would really appreciate your prayers right now <3

#long very boring and unnecessarily detailed tag monologue incoming‚ feel free to skip:#this is going to sound like a silly thing to be hitting rock bottom over #but i’m fairly certain i have a semi-rare skin condition known as sensitive skin syndrome #which is basically where skin gets progressively more sensitive #until it won’t tolerate the topical application of anything at all without getting irritated #usually it happens to people on the skin of their face and i have it there but i also specifically have it on my lips #(which apparently is extremely not normal; i found a dermatologist’s case study from like 2019 of one woman who had it on her lips #and according to this case study there were no other cases of people having it on their lips #in all the dermatological literature he had read)#i can’t follow the protocol which all the journal articles i’ve been able to find say is helpful for the rest of the face which is basicall #leave the area the heck alone for at least a year #because if i don’t apply anything to my lips for more than two or three days they will get so dry they crack and bleed #so it’s looking like one way or another i may be having to deal with dry burning irritated lips for the rest of my life #and i’m not dealing with the thought of that very well #i’ve already suffered so much anguish from extreme sensitivity on the rest of my face #and not being able to take proper care of the skin there #and this is just too much for me #i know God is allowing this for a reason but it’s filling me with so much frustration and panic and despair that i don’t know how to go on #but i must and i will #this isn’t a serious or a life-threatening condition but it’s looking like a pretty hopeless one and it’s hurting me badly #and i would appreciate prayers that it would just be healed or that i would know what to do #i think i will try going to my dermatologist but somehow i doubt she's even heard of sensitive skin syndrome #on a COMPLETELY unrelated note i'm just about to get my period and also for two days i've ''eaten'' nothing but vegetable smoothies #and those in pretty small amounts because they're disgusting #(do a detox my hormonal health doctor said)#(it'll be fun she said)#ok if you read this far you're so brave braver than any u.s. marine etc.#thanks for reading ily <3

i think the most we will get is PC release (if that) this year but that means we gotta deal with those trolls bc changing angrb0da’s skin color is such a big deal to these mfs and i still dont understand that sweet baby inc shit bcuz all the information im seeing is just bundled bullshit LMFAOOO i feel like her actual character gets overshadowed by the made up problems and no one actually talks abt HER as a character or even analyses her fr (outside of here ofc) lol sms abt to make a banger with her and atreus istg

#Truth be told i dont even wanna talk abt this anymore but this topic gets brought up pretty much every week atp #How weird is it that u would only accept her if she were white #Thats literally you admitting you like her character but her being black is a deal breaker #I feel like no matter how much they want her to be a white girl changing her skin wouldnt change their opinion abt her #Theres this one (big) acct in particular thats constantly shitting on rag and its like bro u need to just leave if ur not happy #or take a long ass break and come back at times and then leave again cuz hes just miserable as fuck and yall know exactly who im talking ab #I do see more people getting annoyed with this topic and i dont blame them #its getting super out of hand and dragged out atp #Once again i do not want ppl to like her out of PITY. she deserves a very honest group of fans and if those fans are ppl #That disliked her at first but started to like her later on thats fine as long as its out of being genuine #I cannot wait for her to gain more fans fr but i have to be careful what i wish for bcuz i dont want ppl to become too crazy lol #I might just post smth on that god forsaken reddit as an appreciation post of her or smth idk yet LMFAOOO #I for sure will have to be more brave and visible with my love for her one of these days #also very grateful for that one ragnarok vp. he loves angie for sure #Anyways #Love angie for life #Gow #god of war ragnarok #rant

self care has been so twisted into serving capitalism and the patriarchy it makes me sick actually

#like the reason everyone started talking about self care was because people were getting burnt out by their jobs and lives in general #and like. specifically women who are usually expected to be selfless in their lives #self care was a way to reframe ‘being selfish’ i.e. taking time for yourself to relax #which was NEEDED BECAUSE CAPITALISM HAS INGRAINED INTO PEOPLE THAT THEY SHOULD FEEL GUILTY IF THEY ARENT CONSTANTLY PRODUCING LABOUR #and now ads are like. buy this leg waxing kit for SELF CARE you DESERVE it. buy this $90 foundation to hide your disgusting skin for SELF CA #RE #did you know it’s SELF CARE to meditate. but only about how you can be more productive and efficient #i see that one a lot on productivity reddit which i joined several years ago trying to manage my undiagnosed adhd and now i stay because i #find the expectations people have for themselves to be Wild #anyway if someone is telling you you need to buy something or spend money to exercise self care they do not care about your wellbeing they #care about getting your money #also if you’re a girl/woman and someone is trying to tell you that something is self care consider if they would suggest the same thing to #boys/men. like if they’re trying to tell you that cosmetics or hair removal or plastic surgery is self care they are lying to you #self care should be free and accessible and gender neutral and if it isn’t then think about who is actually benefiting

My scug, Dandy! They can piggyback two slugpups and carry one in their mouth to hold babies and keep their hands free :D They'd start their campaign with one pup (that pup being Metal Pipe, the little grey/black one) and have increased pup spawn rates. She's also able to tame lantern mice, centipedes, and jetfish! And finally her spots and antennae glow in the dark, essentially giving the effect of eating a neuron fly without having to go get one. They would also be unable to ascend due to their title/role as a parent to abandoned slugpups; I like to think their campaign's ending would be similar to the slugtree ending Monk and Survivor have.

#gradient and solid patterns are interchangable. you can also mix and match ie gradient legs w solid tail or vice versa #the skin i made has the gradients but in my brain she doesnt so both are equally canon lol. you could also do a smooth gradient if you want #im not planning on making a campaign mod for them i just like thinking about my oc lol. idk where in timeline shed be or how many food pips #theyd take. id imagine not a lot of pips cause the focus would be on taking care of your pups but idk #also do yall like my scug anatomy. most scugs just have the solid color eyes like pipe's but dandy has rivulet-type eyes #zoracontent #zora arts #clovers characters #dandelion the caretaker #metal pipe #rain world #rain world oc #slugcat oc #scug oc

I really hate how my physical body looks so so so much. unfortunately there isn't much I can do about it.

#ive got fat genetics from both parents families going back generations and ive been trying to lose weight forever #my stupod body likes being fat i can excercise like crazy and eat barely anything and i wont lose anything #i was excercising 2+ hours a day before i got sick and it made me stronger but i.stayed fat. now that im sick im weak and still fat.#and im not the kind of fat anybody can find pretty. if i could somehow not be fat id be decent to look at my face isnt bad #my skin is bad though my skin sucks #in my eyes im disgusting #and its so messed up because i dont think other fat people are gross #but i hate how i look so much that i cant imagine anyone being okay with it #like no matter how kind and understanding and sweet i am to people its never gonna make up for the fact that my body is grossly ugly #and i cant blame anyone for not liking me i get it.#sorry #this is a problem i have #bacause i just usually pretend my body doesnt exist and i wear pretty loose fitting dresses that cover me completely so but #even though i am what i am #sometimes you happen to meet a nice person and they are polite and dont seem disgusted by your existance so then your traitorous brain t #thinks hey maybe this person would be willing to marry us someday if they got to know us. which is so silly becuz theres no way thatd ever #so it makes me sad when i should be happy that a nice person talked to me. yay good job successful friendlyness. but it has to remind me #that i had this expectation from when i was a kid that id marry somone and have at least 3 kids and love my kids and take care of them and #give them everything i needed when i was a kid. and of course that never happened. because i never dated anyone. because people dont just #magically get married out of nowhere. its stupid. so i keep trying to be okay with whatever. but i guess i never stopped wanting a family.#which we know im aroace now so. i need to stop. but my brain is always bothering me about this.#why can't i just accept that no one will ever love me. why cant i be happy that they dont?#ive got cats #someday i will have irl friends again #sorry i think everything would be so much easier if i was just #this isnt a problem with an easy solutiom #i guess im gonna try to do the useless excercises again because at least it will look like im trying even though nothing will change

thought about my warlock kierin the other day

#milk ocs #kierin #doodles #my dm never really detailed what would happen when the substance his boss put in him took over his body but he seems fine now #i think his summons would take care of him while hes transforming and figuring out how to put his skin back on again #hes doing well in his future incarnation my dm's using for a thing. hes just really tired running a stupid thing he started in his 20s #my dm mentioned he had the vibes of enki funger and i was like yknow what he does need to be more enki funger #tw body horror

The problem with starting to think about the Pack more is the fact that now I want to grab Skalamander the same way I grabbed Bobo like. My house now. I want to use your character potential.

#Generator rex #genrex #Just. Ough. OUGH.#Bobo was just a bad use of his potential but Skalamander is just a nothing use of his potential. Very little character there.#But looking at his design I just. Cannot get the question out of my head of 'Is it painful?'#Is he an EVO who lives in constant pain? We see that he can't stop drooling and is blind on one 'side' of his head.#And his tongue flops around when he has his mouth open. His skin stretches and sags in awkward places #It makes me think that he probably lives a pain-filled life and has probably got a wrecked mind bc of it. And then follows VK #Someone who looks at him and says You are not broken. I have use of you. I have salvation.#And with the disability symbolism with Genrex Skalamander also looks the most chronic pain having #Though granted most EVOs with significant body changes probably have chronic pain #I just. Head in hands. Fucked up lizard. How much of his mind is actually still there.#Do you think he has good days and bad days. Bad days where he can't move or days where his mind is more of a mess than usual.#He definitely has to struggle to eat and drink. With no other mouth.#Thinking also in context of Rex Pack AU of like. Skalamander having his bad days and having people who actually care about him #Doing the best they can to help. Bringing him food and water with specially designed straws and utensils #Sitting and talking to him on days his mind isn't fully there so at least he's not alone. Giving him space if he needs it #But making sure to keep a close eye on absolutely anything he needs.#Bc they're one big disabled family and they take care of each other

probably going to rework my human bellum design again

#surprise surprise im still not satisfied with it but i think i have the base down #might just rework his clothing a liiiiitle and maybe like. give him at least slightly darker skin #he still comes off as edgy or some shit to me. i still want to stick with the violent delinquent sorta angle #i just feel like its a bit much or whatever. he just seems too unremarkable but also too detailed #or something. with the scars all over. maybe its bc i cant picture him v well in the game artstyle? but ive never cared much abt that #tho looking at the comms ive gotten of him. he seems fine. the x on the eyepatch might be a bit much #maybe he can customize it when he materializes it idk and the x is a default. its made of sand when you inspect it #it might also help to write him more. force myself to think abt him in situations #in other news im thinking abt damien possible post ph healing magic. i like the idea i have #i really need to fiure out more defined post ph arcs it does bother me how aimless it is #i know vague stuff but very little specifics. it needs a fucking plot #i do want to keep bellums human form making him look closely related to link. i like that #its funny if nothing else #salty talks #damiens fine hes just a guy he doesnt need anything too fancy. if i think abt it too long my certainty dissolves #wow i love being insecure ablut my ideas. i love rsd. ohhhhhhhhh boyyy #now its a minor vent. w/e. at rhis rate im. gonna start talking abt how my job scheduled me on a shift #with the literal bare minimum number of scheduled workers so if its slightly busy its going to be a living hell #at least i get paid for closing so when closing inevitably takes over an hour bc i have to do it alone im getting paid more #if i wasnt motivated by money itd be so fucking over for me in the workforce

Wtf, even just browsing job sites / listings / descriptions is enough to make me nauseous with anxiety and depression. When, why, and how did I ever become such a useless and pathetic mess?

#not trek #personal log #unemployment #unemployed #my therapist wanted me simply to Look and see what's out there but omg i've spent 90 minutes and want to tear all the skin off my bones #i can't handle anything that involves phone/video calls‚ customer service‚ relocating‚ teaching‚ or early mornings #trying to look for remote work because she said there's lots available now and yet everything i've seen still seems beyond my capacity #eventually my parents will die. and while i doubt my brother will want their house (so i'll inherit it) i won't last long without an income #i can't take care of myself and it horrifies me #and i know i'll never have a spouse to help me or depend on so once my folks are gone i will be completely on my own #but i don't know how to do the most basic damn things i can't cook can't work a standard 9-5 can't even make phone calls #how the fuck am i ever going to make it?#(i know. i won't‚ that's how.)#i'm in literal all-over physical pain over this‚ headache nausea sore joints sobbing just waiting to see how long i can go without c*tting #prayers appreciated‚ i genuinely don't know what i'm supposed to do #depression #anxiety #depressive episode #my life is an exercise in absurdity shame futility and more shame #self loathing #self pity #pantophobia #spiralling #if you're reading this i am so sorry in so many ways 😣#forever alone #heartsick #soul sick #jtkchu's brain #stfu jtkchu #early morning thoughts

Today was the last DND session for a three-year campaign and I am big sad :(

One of the players brought whiskey for a last toast, which was very kind of them. I had never had whiskey before. Turns out I do not like whiskey. Unsurprising.

It tastes like slightly nicer hand sanitizer.

#blue chatter #it was a flavored whiskey as well #everyone else who had it said it was rly smooth and sweet #so I don’t think I super wanna know what regular whiskey tastes like #it was supposed to be like vanilla caramel flavored or smth #I was told it was like cream soda and that was a LIE it was like disinfectant #with a vanilla aftertaste #the campaign went rly rly well though #I’m seriously going to miss it #the final boss battle was just pure catharsis we absolutely whaled on that dark abberant goddess #she got Destroyed #an entire section of the continent restructured bc of the removal of her corruption #I rly like that my character got to be disabled at the tail end of this campaign #they wielded experimental magic that wasn’t supposed to work and resurrected someone who the Keeper very intentionally kept dead #it worked because they partially fused with Arawai the goddess of life and became her aspect on earth #but becoming partially divine in a mortal body takes a toll #they had more and more limited mobility and the more they cast magic to compensate the more of a toll it takes #functionally that meant my movement speed was reduced #and I lost more abilities after each combat as the consequences of overextending myself caught up to me #I wish I’d gotten to play this longer to see how this ended mechanically but it was a lot of fun to get a character who is both #very magically competent and still disabled and that still affects their ability and they still get the dignity of risk #to choose whether to continue casting or not knowing the consequences of doing so #it is very much a fantastical disability which I flavored heavily off of chronic fatigue and a mobility disorder #in-game their skin became hard and brassy around their joints which make them difficult and painful to bend #they lose a lot of sensation and fine motor control #thankfully they have a lot of money from their adventuring so they can commission an accessible house and mobility aids #and their friends help take care of them
