#I am very out of the loop these days...

[janebonbon]

Wondering if.... We should make a muse roleplay account..... We sort of miss our roleplay days. We used to roleplay on Deviantart! Did you know that! Deviantart had a roleplay community back in the day... Maybe it still exists, but Tumblr is my home these days.

It would probably be the most logical to have one big account with different muses or else it would get... cluttered! I think...

But it sounds like fun... I miss it, I miss it.... It's always nerve wracking doing all the setup and wondering if it's worth it! But I'd really like to interact with others as well... I will have to mull it over...

I had a single thought about how Mumbo K. Jumbo kind of reminds me of the Doctor and my brain worms said that this thought will be what my mind is solely focused on developing for the next 5-8 business days.

Anyways, Hermitcraft AU set in the Dr. Who universe with Time Lord Mumbo, human anthropologist Grian who is very confused as to how he got wrapped up in time travel shenanigans, Grian’s sister Pearl who is very concerned as to why her brother keeps disappearing for several days at a time, and the rest of the ensemble as various Whoniverse natives that live on a giant spaceship together called the Hermit Craft.

Whenever I see someone being transphobic on twt in a bridget thread i reply with three pictures of my mains: ky kiske from ac+r, ky kiske from rev 2, and ky kiske from strive.

it self selects for people who actually play the game. it’s canon that he’ll fight off transphobes with the blade. and if they actually played guilty gear they’d get the underlining messages

While it can be really funny to bully these guys back, please keep in mind that nothing you can say or do to these people will hurt them or waste as much of their time as what they say will stick with you or waste your time. It might be funny to send them a bunch of Ky pictures, but what they're doing is laughing that the only response the people they hate can give them is sending a bunch of pictures of anime boys.

The only thing that works is blocking them. They've turned being an asshole into a recreational sport and getting any sort of response in return is a victory for them.

the more i hear previously undiscovered (to me) gen alpha slang the more i morph into an old man on the inside and the more i believe as humans we all are just saying shit recreationally

Ray's After Ending is so funny because for a good chunk of it, most of the RFA members are knocked out by V's sleeping gas (Saeran is immune, Saeyoung isn't present bc he was kidnapped by his agency under his father's orders and MC wakes up in like an hour) but the game has a call feature where you can call the characters and it would be a waste if you couldn't use it bc the characters were unavailable so instead they have other people pick up the call (Jumin's driver picks up Jumin's phone, Jumin's father picks up Zen's phone, Yoosung's friends and mom pick up Yoosung's phone and Jaehee's coworkers pick up Jaehee's phone) and we do get to learn about the characters from outsider's point of view but it's so funny to me that these people are visiting their loved ones and suddenly the phone rings and they decide to just. answer it. and start talking to this stranger they've never met

the 'I feel like shit, what do I do' list

pro tip. if you're fighting the existentialist dread, the rsd 'everyone secretly hates me' spiral (my old friend), the finals week dread, whatever is bothering you: a list of things to do that probably won't fix it, because nothing is ever a one-and-done fix, but you'll be slightly less miserable.

-pet an animal. no animals nearby? soft blanket, sweater, whatever. Get some sort of comforting sensory input. Change into comfy clothes if you can. Try to minimize bad physical feelings, because that helps the mental ones. ESPECIALLY MY AUTISTIC FRIENDS WITH SENSORY ISSUES. As an autistic, it's funny how many problems can be solved by taking off the bad textures.

-watch youtube. I have a playlist of stuff to watch while crying/panicky/overall bad. Will it fix me? No, but it's hard to cry when you're watching someone play gta5 but chat controls the mods or whatever. (personal go-to, motion sickness folks may not like it). But when you're feeling better, start a playlist of things guaranteed to make you laugh or feel better. Watch a video of frogs or something.

-Look over the basics. Have you eaten real people food and not just a handful of almonds or something? Find something to eat. If you're in depression mode and cannot make food, then eat the ingredients separately. Cannot make yourself make a sandwich? Well, just eat some bread and peanut butter and a banana and you've basically eaten a deconstructed sandwich which still counts as a meal. Also, find microwave recipes. I'm partial to mac and cheese in a mug. Have you drank water? or liquid in general, no need to be perfectionist with it? Showered? Try to get that out of the way. Because, as it turns out, taking care of your physical body deeply helps your brain issues.

-if you can, then moving around or exercising allegedly helps. Chronic illness folks, disregard this one, we can keep sitting around because maybe don't add joint injuries and syncope to your issues.

-talk to a friend if you can. Try to choose someone who will uplift you, though, and not someone who will talk about their issues if you don't have the headspace for it. Which sounds cold, but sometimes your own shit is already way too much and you cannot balance other people's issues. Self care is not selfish.

-Knock something off of your to do list. One, distraction. Two, having future responsibilities weighs on you, so it can be good to try and get stuff out of the way so it's one less thing to worry about.

-turn social media off for a bit. tumblr and discord are wonderful but it's also just another thing to be keeping track of and sometimes you need to disconnect. Note that disconnecting and isolating are different things. You SHOULD disconnect for a bit and have you time. You should NOT ignore your friends and people who reach out to you to check on you. And here's a secret- if nobody checks on you? Before you go down a spiral about how nobody cares, consider this. That thing you're feeling right now? Tons of other people feel it too and chances are someone is not leaving you on read out of hatred, but rather they just have all of The Horrors to deal with and they just can't right now, but it's on their list.

-Finally, do a hobby. Draw. Write. Play an instrument. Do something. Guess what? When you're in this headspace, you're probably gonna hate whatever you end up making, and that's okay. It's not about what you made, it's about the fact that you sat down and tried to do something creative with your time. Did you make the mona lisa? no, but you made something and something is better than nothing at all.

Not me crying because I had a really bad beginning of 2023 and signed up for a program that would proceed to make the rest of my 2023 rough and I spent the whole first three months of 2023 trying to pick myself up and motivate myself like "I'm gonna make it through this year if it kills me" and well look at that I made it

Next week is high school computer deployment; Powers That Be obviously want all the high school librarians working because these are our students. We get paid extra since the days are outside of our contract.

I’ve been feeling guilty for only signing up for 3 out of the 4 days, but I’m mostly helping out the others since my kids don’t attend. (I ran the numbers and my school has something like 75 signed up versus 300 - 2,000 per other high schools.)

Anyway, the job station assignments came out in email and........

THREE ???? of the five of us are not listed anywhere ???

And the one other librarian is only listed for ONE DAY’S shift ???

What the heck is happening???

what the heck is going on in bsd oH my god i am so far behind >.<
