Okay I need to write something abt Ivy's brain overheating n starting to cook her head bc it overworks and there's no way there's enough space in her super computer brain for an efficient cooling system combined with Tim involuntarily salivating and feeling hungry when he smells burning flesh as a hold over from eating corpses during the Moon War. This is no longer a want it is a need.
#Been thinking about this for DAYS but every time I open a word doc I get so frozen with emotions abt them so I end up writing nothing#ivy alexandria#gunpowder tim#the mechanisms#I can't stop thinking about it#picturing something like Tim just chilling in Ivy's library/archives. like he's got a bad migraine and wants to take refuge in the quiet#but he's leafing through a random shelf- not really looking at the titles- as an excuse to be there.#when he smells it#a harsh scent undercuttng the stale and dusty atmosphere and rising until it is as loud and pounding as his thundering heart#logically he knows it isn't actually that strong. but it's been long since they were planetside and even longer since he had to smell that#it's all consuming. and for a long moment he stands frozen.#Stomach sunk in his chest only for Tim to be filled with horror when he realizes he's salivating.#and then all he feels filled with is disgust.#he stumbles through the shelves. Fully aware that it could only be coming from Ivy.#He's not quite sure if it's the scent that draws him or a bastardized version of concern.#Either way she's researching in the exact same spot she was when he came in. He wants to leave but she's right by the door and his own brai#is screaming at him to check for a pulse and bring her back to the microwave victim pile for harvest.#Nevermind he knows they cannot die and knows they have food and even (logically) knows he's no longer in thise lunar tunnels#nvgtdtfhvhdgchvjcv ahhhhh no thoughts head empty just this scenario

Hey y'all! Weird question time, but let me preface it by saying these are not symptoms I am currently experiencing and also I have talked to doctors about this, I just didn't think to put the two things together For all the migraine havers out there, do you have tachycardia when you have migraines? Either like during the whole migraine, or only with migraines bad enough to cause stomach issues?
#the person behind the yarn#I had just assumed the migraine tachycardia was another case of like#my body will take any excuse to make my heart go fast it's not necessarily super related to what happens#like the asthma! I think wheezing causes an increase in heart rate for most people#but I don't think most people with asthma reach the 'hit the floor' point of heartrate waaaaaay#before they reach that point because of the asthma itself#seriously my asthma would be SO MINOR if my heart would just behave I've never tested at lower than 96 percent oxygen#my migraines are also not that bad as far as migraines go#except! if I get past the initial high blood pressure low heart rate stage of a migraine#I tip over into the stomach issues stage where my resting heart rate shoots up into the 160s#and also I am pretty sure my blood sugar crashes fairly hard?#I haven't been able to test that because since I figured out that might be the issue#if I reach the stomach issues stage of a migraine I stop drinking water and drink only things with sugar in them#which works well for me! also per the blood sugar thing#I have been tested for blood sugar issues and I officially clinically do not have any#I am apparently 'just a little bit sensitive to insulin' so my blood sugar (on non migraine days)#doesn't actually get hypoglycemic it just drops from being on the high end of normal so fast#that I get symptoms as like. whiplash. so that's something I guess

buffy update: I am unfortunately not immune to spike
#he sucks. i like him a lot#watched the episode where we get a lot of his flashbacks and i was eating that shit UP !#the bit when he was crying in the alley with the money buffy threw at him. my god.#i know the term is overused. but. pathetic little meow meow for real.#dude who is the worst but is pathetic and entertaining about it#i like how often he shows up intending to watch buffy get her ass kicked#and then he ends up helping her#like his presence in that whole last bit with tara's family#spike being like i can prove she's human :) [punches her in the face and gives himself a migraine]#it's great#anyway im having a good time with this show#it's still corny as hell#but the proportion of bad writing to good writing is definitely getting better#the last couple episodes i watched have been really good#currently dealing with buffy's mom's illness... :(#also i really like glory. thank you unhinged women who are violently insane <3

Am I really having a migraine, or am I just imagining the horrific nausea, the vertigo, the sensitivity to light, sound, and smells, the throbbing pain on one side of my head and kinda my neck, the tingling in my arms and hands and face and legs and feet, the stiffness in my neck, the pain in my scalp, the blurry vision on the pain side, the—
#i spent yeeeears thinking i was really not having migraines#because my family has one person who gets a couple each year#and because THEY throw up sometimes with their migraines#i was told (by my family) that i COULDN'T POSSIBLY really have migraines#i have been diagnosed. by a doctor. I've had multiple medical professionals confirm i get migraine with aura#the first was my pediatrician#but my family believed all of my chronic pain issues were made up#because THEY struggled with certain things and therefore i didn't know what Real Pain™️ was#and i only THOUGHT i was in pain#so i ended up almost dying in my 20s because i didn't believe i was in at much pain as i thought i was experiencing#and i almost didn't go to the er in time 🙃#i struggle with believing in my own symptoms because i was told for my entire childhood that i wasn't really experiencing what i said i was#and i STILL doubt that I'm having migraines unless the pain gets so intense i genuinely think I'm about to die#because for years i was told that's how i would be reacting if i had real migraines#(because my family seems to believe migraines are actually ''just'' really painful headaches and not. ya know. a neurological disorder)

ok fine, I'll be the defender of The Drums Thing if no one else will. Like no, it shouldn't be the sole retroactive explanation for their whole deal, but it works just fine as An element of their backstory. They had a form of chronic pain slash psychosis that their whole society gaslit and belittled them about from childhood on. That experience helped feed their desperation to never be seen as weak, but it also made them lean all-in on their reputation as mad/"cuckoo bananas," as a way of controlling their own narrative & preempting other people's ableism. It alienated them from time lord society, while making them all the more desperate to be the "ultimate" time lord and make up for their "defect," instead of questioning the whole value system. Even the Doctor bought into the framing, in ways that the Master has both resented and exploited (you wouldn't hit your friend who's Fragile and Mentally Unwell, would you? 🥺). Juicy stuff tbqh
#doctor who#the master#getting into hc territory now but i prefer to think of it in terms of 'flare ups' and 'episodes'#saxon master was having a particularly bad flare up (perhaps brought on by the whole 'woke up & all my people are dead' thing)#oldwho master was in a comparatively better place & more able to mask/push through it/ignore it#(though that contributed to the later burnout)#post end of time theyve finally gotten the other time lords to admit that it's real & give them some kind of actual treatment for it#but not like. a perfect instacure. they still have occasional migraine-style episodes

I hate this fucking house so much, why the fuck do you think publicly shaming people is okay
#for context this is about dishes#one of my housemates sent a text in the group chat this morning saying it was ‘appalling’ that people could leave their dishes in the sink#and that we needed to ‘grow up’ and ‘not leave your messes for other people to clean up’#and then sent a picture of a pan that I had used yesterday and said it had been in the sink for days#I’m so sorry you’re a little inconvenienced by my one whole pan that doesn’t even have like food in it#but I had a migraine yesterday and could barely even get up to make myself food so of course I didn’t clean the fucking pan right away#and I was going to do it today but now I feel like I can’t because of the fucking public shaming around dishes that’s happened multiple#times now#like we’re all busy college students dishes might not get done right away and I can acknowledge how that’s annoying but it’s not the end of#the fucking world calm the fuck down#these housemates also suck for other reasons which is great#I don’t want to live here#j rambles

I had a migraine and had to use instacart. Yeah this is why I don’t. And why I try to always get a female shopper if possible bc the male incompetence I am always subjected to. And I try not to make generalizations but this sounds like it’s an across the board experience . How are you telling me a store doesn’t have any tomatoes or almonds?
#i usually try really hard to not do instacart bc it’s expensive and they never get it right#but I needed food and cant go anywhere with a migraine#or when they take a pic and what they say us not there is literally right there#man really tried to say the store doesn’t have tomatoes or almonds#the male shoppers are incompetent as fuck#when I was in res treatment we used instacart a lot and it was a joke what they might mess up#I do no replacements but then I end up paying delivery for like 3 things#I had them replace too many things that aren’t even close#they literally replaced yogurt with pears#and another guy thought pudding cups were yogurt

Was midway through typing out a defense of Jon's decisions in light of how everyone (including Jonny) seems to think he could've done much better, but then I remembered he walked up to Jude Perry's front door and knocked and yknow what post cancelled actually. For that alone this man is an idiot (affectionate)
#jon jarchivist#I'm not using any serious tags I don't want the incomplete real thought behind this post to get traction dhshs#but real talk though.#the majority of Jon's ''mistakes'' come either from acting on a lack of information where waiting could have been much worse#or just the bare fact that for the majority of people in a helpless situation; doing Something feels better than laying down and giving up#even if that something has a high chance of making things worse#season 3-4 Jon thought he was stopping the end of the world or at least delaying it#and yeah; he knew he was probably aiding an Eye ritual; but he didn't know how Soon that would be an issue and what are you supposed to do?#by the time he got to the point of actually knowing the shape of what was going on he was so trapped#being certain there was no way out for him personally but not yet quite certain enough that the world was in as much trouble as it was#of course that's going to push him to wait and learn more instead of doing something drastic#short of taking himself out there was really not a lot to be done by then#and well. The man did die#and it didn't work#he could've tried to kill Elias but at that point evil or not he was still seeming like the one person#who was handing Jon enough power and info to deal with anything else effectively#I just feel like most people underestimate both the obviousness of hindsight#and the fear and confusion of a person who is in this sort of situation with no ability to put the phone down and step back#no genre awareness#if TMA was a dnd actualplay or some other similar adventure thing then for example breaking the table in season 2 would've worked#making a bold move would work#but it's horror. you don't generally assume your life follows the rules of horror#idk. post for later maybe#....but point still stands: seeking out Jude was REALLY stupid kdkfhs#boy that should have killed you. any of the avatars you hunted down in s3 should've lit you up#the Amount of background intimidation work Elias probably had to do to keep that from happening#migraine for weeks I'm sure lmao

I always forget that sometimes it's so much easier to let someone think they're helping to get them to stop constantly asking how they can help. like sure, I need a loaf of bread. will you please stop telling me how I need to get out of the house more.
#ESPECIALLY WHEN I'VE BEEN LEAVING THE HOUSE FAIRLY OFTEN. YOU JUST DON'T SEE IT >:(#also like how and why should i explain to my catholic stoner neighbour that i don't go out often#because i am unable to breathe once pollen hits.#or get migraines because of the sun.#or end up in immense pain from walking. and sometimes can't walk the next day.#like it's noooonnnnnnnneeee of his business i'm sorry#i know we've beenneighborus for a year and a half. BUT I DONT WANT TO SHARE THIS STUFFFFFFF

i want to go get Chinese noodles but my mom said she's "disappointed" in how much "junk food" I've been eating lately and I don't want her to judge me more than she already is
#the struggles of being a 22y/o still living at home#she also says she doesn't like how I “go off and do your own thing all the time” and I'm like#Well I can't focus on my homework when I'm at home what do you want me to do#(she was chiefly complaining about how I'm never home to help her out with things)#(I then stayed home and ended up getting a migrain and having to lay down in the time it took her to eat lunch before#she actually got to things she wanted me to help her with)

having glasses is fun because it lets me be even more dramatic than I already am. for example:
- character does something that causes so much secondhand embarrassment I must pause the show and take my glasses off to go walk around for a minute
- someone does something so stupid I must remove my glasses to pinch the bridge of my nose and sigh
- something so surprising or stupid happens that I must lift my glasses and stare for a minute
- I want to end a conversation so I put on my glasses and start doing Work
#i'm a dramatic little shit lol#helps that i dont need glasses All The Time#just to read and craft and close-up stuff without getting migraines#i cant wear them and see the other end of a room lol

i went ahead and marked in my migraine diary that i had a migraine today. i think i probably should mark the past three days too, since the headache hasn't actually abated for more than a few hours at a time for the last, um. Eight days. there have been times when it's been mild and i haven't had a ton of the other secondary stuff (mostly the days when i was in bed the majority of the time, so i think being in bed was why i felt better)
i need to keep a more detailed diary i think. i might start over with something else. something digital might be more easy to update. i could always make a tag on here but i wouldnt want to direct a neurologist to this shitshow so maybe just like a. google docs.
#i mostly think it should be more detailed in terms of symptoms#i've never noticed my diet having any sort of impact on the migraines so i doubt its that? MAYBE caffeine admittedly.#but it doesn't seem to like. trigger them. like i do the same stuff all the time#and sometimes i get raging long attacks like this and sometimes i'll be fine for a couple weeks#not. quite like this actually. since last time i got an 8 day migraine i did go to the ER on day 8#and still...ended up having a headache for another couple of days...#sobbing emoji
