Personal Post (and apologies)
I'm going to post some personal feelings and thoughts here, so if you're not interested in that, then please skip.
First off, I want to apologise to anyone I've offended. Now, you might be wondering why I'm starting off with that statement of apology. The truth is that I've had a very bad couple of years mentally, and I'm not using this as an excuse for any bad/negative behaviour, but more for you to maybe understand my thought patterns. I know that I've come off as toxic to some people; I stand up and admit to that. I have. My behaviour has no doubt been hard to deal with, and because of this, I've lost friends. And it's mainly to those people I wish to apologise. Whether they'll actually see this post or not, I don't know, but I hope they will. And that goes for anyone else that I may have upset without realising. This post is calling myself out.
A lot of my negative behaviour has come from very destructive thought patterns, which revolve around never feeling good enough and not fitting in. I play the comparison game constantly, and to the point that I sometimes dread coming online to Tumblr. Because I know my mind will begin to churn and tell me that I'm not a good enough person, I'm not funny enough, talented enough...just not good enough in any way at all. And it's because of this that I've pushed people away from me because of the fear of rejection through my own comparisons to other people. These thoughts have even affected the way I see myself with my family, so it's not just online friends. It's in almost everything I do.
I wouldn't normally post anything this personal on Facebook, but on Tumblr I feel that my anonymity helps me to remain a bit more shadowed from criticism and harsh words. I can only think of a couple of people from Tumblr who I've met in person.
So this post is me apologising to anyone I've ever hurt, been cold with, been standoffish with, been snappy with. Again, I know that this isn't an excuse for negative behaviour and toxicity, but I'm trying to change my ways. Whenever I feel that wave of anxiety rip through me because the negative comments in my brain are becoming so loud, I now take a step back to recalibrate. I'm consciously giving my rational mind more room to step in and take control. I'll admit that it's fucking hard, but I am trying with every last ounce of my being to become a better person.
For a while I considered leaving Tumblr, but that would mean stepping away from doing the very thing I love, which is writing and sharing with you. But the need for external validation to feed my ego and turn down the deafening volume of the negative voice was getting too much. My rational mind has had to take the reins again and fight to be heard over all the commotion of self doubt. For some time I've even developed people-pleasing ways which has later led to resentment, and again, negative outbursts.
I know I need to work on this cripplingly low self-esteem, build myself up and also be completely authentic and not people please. Don't get me wrong, I do try and be as generous and kind as I can, but sometimes it's wound up compromising my own state of mind, and I must try and work on this, too.
This post is me being open, raw and vulnerable. All I can do is apologise again, and whatever comes of this post, I will accept gladly.
I hope I can usher in a time of more confidence, more happiness, and maybe more friendships which are unburdened by my negativity.
If you've made it this far, well done, and thanks for coming to my TedTalk. :) <3

Experiencing the Present Moment: Beyond Conceptualization

Weirdly, i relate to Umbrella Academy s4 Five ... This depression/melancholy/detachment has been following me for some time, and the way he speaks as Jerome in ep1, no emotion put into major events that shaped his whole life... i just get it. Even if it is later shown that he was being undercover, everything he does for the remainder of the season has Jerome written all over it: no sign of previous energy and enthusiasm of Five, just smells of a person given up to the injustice or banality of existence.
Not sure if that was what the creators intended, most likely not. I am not 68 yet, sure, but if i continue the next decades in a similar way, i totally understand how i can become disillusioned like that. Still its a sad resolution to a beloved show, and i am not even talking about the final ep.
I has rambled.

Oracle Cards: A Gateway to Divine Guidance and Personal Insight
Shaina Tranquilino
September 12, 2023
Tumblr media
In the realm of divination and spiritual exploration, there are countless tools available to seekers who wish to gain insight into their lives and receive guidance from the divine. One such tool that has gained popularity in recent years is Oracle cards. These beautiful and captivating decks offer a unique way to tap into our intuition and access the wisdom of higher realms.
What are Oracle Cards?
Oracle cards are a type of divination tool that consists of a deck of cards, each featuring a different image or message. Unlike Tarot cards, which follow a specific structure and symbolism, Oracle cards have no fixed system or rules. They can vary greatly in terms of theme, imagery, and purpose.
The Purpose and Power of Oracle Cards:
The primary purpose of Oracle cards is to help us connect with our intuition and access divine guidance. Each card in the deck carries its own energy and message, offering insights into various aspects of life – love, career, personal growth, spirituality, etc. These messages often serve as gentle reminders or encouragement for us to trust our inner voice and make empowered decisions.
Unlike traditional fortune-telling methods, Oracle cards do not predict the future with absolute certainty. Instead, they act as mirrors reflecting our current state of being and potential paths ahead. They invite us to explore our thoughts and feelings more deeply so that we can make informed choices aligned with our highest good.
How to Use Oracle Cards:
Using Oracle cards is simple yet profound. It requires an open mind, willingness to surrender control, and trust in the process. Here are some steps to get started:
1. Choose Your Deck: There are numerous Oracle card decks available in bookstores or online platforms. Take your time to find one that resonates with you visually or thematically.
2. Set Intentions: Before each reading session, take a few moments to ground yourself and set clear intentions for what you seek guidance on. This will help you focus your energy and invite the messages that are most relevant to your current situation.
3. Shuffle and Draw: Holding the deck in your hands, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths to center yourself. Then, shuffle the cards while silently or aloud asking for guidance. When ready, draw a card randomly from the deck. If a card jumps out of the deck while shuffling, then this is a bonus card that has a message that you need to hear.
4. Reflect and Interpret: Look at the image on the card and pay attention to any thoughts, emotions, or sensations it evokes within you. Read the accompanying guidebook or booklet for insights into its meaning, but also trust your intuition to interpret the message uniquely based on your personal experiences.
5. Journaling and Integration: After a reading, consider journaling about your experience, noting down any significant messages received or revelations gained. This allows for deeper reflection and integration of the wisdom offered by the Oracle cards.
The Benefits of Using Oracle Cards:
Oracle cards offer numerous benefits beyond their divination purposes:
1. Self-Reflection and Personal Growth: Regular use of Oracle cards encourages introspection, helping us gain clarity about our desires, fears, strengths, and limitations. They can act as catalysts for self-discovery and personal transformation.
2. Intuition Development: By relying on our intuition to interpret the messages received through Oracle cards, we strengthen our intuitive muscle over time – a skill that can be invaluable in various areas of life.
3. Empowerment and Decision Making: The insights provided by Oracle cards empower us to make informed decisions aligned with our spiritual path and highest good. They remind us that we have agency in creating our reality.
Final Thoughts:
Oracle cards are tools designed to assist us in connecting with divine guidance within ourselves. Whether seeking answers to specific questions or simply desiring spiritual insight, these beautiful decks serve as gateways to explore our own inner wisdom and tap into universal energies. So why not give Oracle cards a try? You might be surprised at the wisdom and guidance they offer on your spiritual journey.

after having an entire hour long conversation with my coworkers about what "degendering" is, and the importance of using trans people's pronouns when you know them- rather than always defaulting to "they/them" no matter what- and still getting "they/them"ed by people I trusted not to fucking do that to me, I have decided that the name and pronouns circle of introductions for new additions to the group will now include the very clearly stated boundary that they do not use "they/them" pronouns for me.
your move, cowards!

Kiss Kiss Fallen Tree!
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#Sorry to everyone who was looking forwards to this comic only to find out I put WWX in the ugliest outfit.#Continuity came first. Plus let's be honest; he did *not* show up in anything fancy. Or in all black as seen in most fanart.#We are at the middle of WWX depression arc. His self-care was 100% because Jin Yanli would be sad if he didn't try to look nice.#Okay okay. Fine I've delayed talking about the kiss long enough.#It is absolutely a core LWJ scene over a WWX scene. Which is made even more fascinating because we don't get his POV.#But we get so many insights! His loss of control and his firmness all contrasted against how he trembles.#And all of that wrapped up in a wonderful self-loathing bow! You go Lan Zhan! You hated yourself so much for this!#WWX is a hilarious narrator for this because he is truly just...baffled by what's going on.#He would push the person away but he doesn't want to hurt their feelings or pride (putting other people first again are we?)#I do understand why this one is divisive for people though. I choose to look at it through a character/humourous lens.#I've seen people defend and admonish this scene as a particularly shitty thing LWJ did and let's be very clear here: It was.#That's why I like it. LWJ did a shitty thing and struggles with it. It's part of what makes him so robust as a character.#It's also fine if you enjoy this scene for it's eroticism. You're not a bad person for that. You are just A Person.#People will have their own experiences with this topic. Be kind to each other alright?

So question if the MC met the ROs in their time- how much different would their romances be? Would they stay the same or would some of them be faster or slower?
You mean, like, when they were human in their original time?
Well, Adam/Ava certainly would have gone straight into it with the MC! They wouldn't have let such powerful instantaneous feelings pass by without trying, that's for sure!
My my, how things have changed for A...
-
Nate/Nat...not too much would be different. N was always pretty dashing, even with being a bit more sickly back then. Though they wouldn't have to put up such masks at times...
-
Felix/Farah, again, not too different. F is very much how they've always been. Except they held more secrets back then. Secrets and lies are a serious no-go for them now!
-
Mason/Morgan would have been just as forward but a lot more...naïve about things. But more open to trying things and being out there. Wanting to do/experience life things together in a way they are very much against now.
-
Hope that all made sense! Was trying to answer while being vague so as to avoid any spoilers, hehe! :D
Thank you so much for the ask! :)

Curly not immediately punishing Jimmy for assaulting Anya is something I don’t think a lot of people are viewing in the complex context for Curly as the superior to both of them and closest confidante they had.
Like I am in no way saying he didn’t under react or fail Anya by not being harsh or direct with Jimmy but it really is the case that he really couldn’t. Imagine being stuck in such a confined space with very little areas to genuinely hold someone if they commit a crime. It’s not like this was an event that occurred before they departed or that they have easy communication with The Pony Express to ask for how to proceed when something like this arises. Not to mention, Jimmy’s relative power in relation to Anya as the co-pilot and second in command, he has the knowledge and access to do something to her had Curly directly punished him in this setting.
They were also Curly’s friends. It’s not just the case of him mediating something between his subordinates but people he is personally invested in don’t want to see spiral further in Anya’s case while also not wanting believe his friend go that bad in Jimmy’s actions. They were both suicidal and Curly putting Jimmy’s stability first is both out of bias but also the fact he’s aware at some level Jimmy is a danger to himself and others if not constantly placated. Combined with the fact he was in denial or just not piecing together what Anya said it’s hard to say what he buying time for and what he had treat as urgent. This isn’t even saying he doesn’t care about Anya but he’s not going jump to the worst conclusions about his friends even if part of him acknowledges the evidence saying so. It’s a complicated thing but he’s still human and needed to process it on top of trying to keep a ship that already took on a lot of water from further sinking, metaphorically.
I just personally think that while Curly failed Anya, it was a scenario where there wasn’t much he could do to the best thing by her safely and like Jimmy, we are underestimating what a good leader would do in a very fragile and tense situation like he was in. By the time he may have been ready and had a plan, things were much too late.
#like in my one Anya still respected Curly after he didn’t punish Jimmy so I assume he still respected her or reassured her he’d do something#it just was never enough because sadly Jimmy just needed to be removed from the ship and that’s not possible#cause no matter what Jimmy was going to do something stupid to fix it and Curly had to be thinking of a way to avoid that but also trying to#play the subjective role of friend and objective role of captain with two of the people he is currently closest with#not to mention how he’s a big picture guy and it’s not an excuse but those little detail and subtle behaviors are probably lost if the big#picture looks fine still and he admits he’d drive himself crazy trying to look for it#like weirdly Curlys character is only seen through the people he tried to protect and we judge him on his failures but we don’t get too much#on his insights directly as Jimmy is unreliable and he tries hard to be gentle with Anya#personal note is I don’t think Curly underplaying Anya’s trauma is a guy code protecting my bud thing but more a flaw in his personal#character in where he just wants everything and everyone to be ok in the end and taking responsibility that isn’t his to bare like he can’t#make up for what Jimmy did but he tried and that’s the problem really cause he’s just used to actually fixing it for him and it’s the case#this is the one thing he really couldn’t like I think he’s a good guy but he’s trapped in his and a bunch of other peoples worse moments#anya mouthwashing#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#mouthwashing curly#curly mouthwashing#mouthwashing anya#jimmy mouthwashing#captain curly#nurse Anya#mouthwashing spoilers#rape tw#suicide tw#also last thought is how he like also was being emotionally drained by Jimmy constantly like Anya and his relationship with Jimmy parallel#each other in such a way that both him and Anya warily follow the words of the others abuser because they fear the physical or emotional#repercussions if they don’t like her not being able to really tell curly what happened and then curly not being able to do the same and how#jimmy assaults and dehumanizes both when they are no longer a service to him like god they are more adjacent than Jimmy and Curly like Curly#messed up in a already messy pile Jimmy mad it into a dumpster fire in a landfill they are not the same
