IAN GALLAGHER + his journey with bipolar disorder

╰┈➤ “At times, being bipolar can be an all-consuming challenge, requiring a lot of stamina and even more courage, so if you’re living with this illness and functioning at all, it’s something to be proud of, not ashamed of." - Carrie Fisher

How do you sleep at night? No one to hide behind Betrayed every alibi you had You had every chance to make amends instead you got drunk on bitterness And you still claim that you're innocent, it's sad

I guess I find the shipping discourse a little funny because fandoms are gonna create ships regardless of the subject matter. I think really heavy, depressing media creates a need for people to see human connection. It’s like a way to cope, you know? More importantly and specific to this game (Mouthwashing), I also find it a little funny just because the devs themselves seem to be leaning towards ~one~ “ship” by retweeting artwork that depicts them as pretty close and protective. They even did an edit of them on that Florence Pugh and that one white guy romance movie with a “what could have been” caption. Sooo tldr the ship drama is kind of dumb. Please block and move on cause the discourse is taking up space on my feed when I’m trying to look for more art of Daisuke lmao

WINTER BREAK

much like marriage matches, the stakes are pretty high for getting into the cardinalate. you might be a little on edge if the brother that's been earmarked for the role isn't really jazzed about the whole thing, in addition to trying to convince the pope that it's in his best interest to let this happen.

eventually I'm going to get the whole cast of sforza siblings drawn. there's just. a lot of them.

things that have me fine and normal on this friday evening

So there was a post a while back about Ben Solo always being told "don't do (x), that's how uncle luke lost his hand" when he was a kid - and I raise you: Elrond and Elros being told "don't do (x), that's how Maedhros lost his hand"??

Like, at Amon Ereb when the twins were newly acquired and refusing to eat their vegetables and Maglor is Mag-mothering them until Erestor, feral half-sane clinically depressed anarchist Avari hostage/patient/infiltrator and Certified Little Shit, hits em with:

"I would listen to the Lord Maglor, winyamor, he well knows the dangers that come to young elflings who don't eat enough vegetables - after all, that's how his brother lost his hand."

Elrond looks conflicted. Elros squints suspiciously. "Truly?"

Erestor, practically comatose since the massacre but ultimately saved from Fading by the biological compulsion to fuck with you, lays a hand over his heart. "I would never lie about such a thing! Just what do you take me for? This is a true tale and a grave warning - the Lord Maedhros' hand was tragically lost in the days of his youth, whilst he was still growing as you are. He refused to eat his vegetables and so, cruelly deprived of the strength it needed to grow strong, his body started to fall apart! First his fingers, then his thumb, and then his palm and wrist - all turned blue and dropped off!"

"No!" Elrond gasps. Elros looks both terrified and impressed. Maglor's face is scrunched up into something that the twins probably interpret as pained - at reminder of the horrors of limbs falling off! - but is actually just him busting a rib trying not to laugh.

"Yes!" Erestor cries with relish. "And it never grew back. All because he didn't eat his vegetables. Isn't that right, Lord Maedhros?"

Maedhros, a looming terror at the head of the table, scarred and solemn and impenetrable as his fortresses, narrows his eyes consideringly at the unfolding shenanigans and the rascal behind it. His conclusion? Fuck it. He gives a slow, solemn nod. Completely deadpan and exaggeratedly formal, because it may have been centuries since he last had his brothers smothering laughter at political dinners but the Finwëan sense of humour, once caught, is not an ailment easily cured.

Maglor conceals his wheezes behind his goblet as Erestor nods sagely to the wide-eyed twins, who suddenly seem a sight more interested in their vegetables.

was looking for something and stumbled upon the funniest character hate for Shoka Sakurane of TWEWY fame where they were like "i just couldn't look at her the same after she said she enjoyed parts of being a Reaper, like 'tearing people apart' 😭 she's always been kinda mean through the game, but that's downright antisocial"

firstable they misread her line as "tearing people apart" when it was actually "tearing people down" (and was a translation of the original Japanese line where she said she just enjoys getting in Players' way and making a general nuisance of herself. she's a gamer who loves griefing irl). secondable she died at 16 and had no desire to be brought back to life after she won her Game; i think it's safe to say that yes, she is some brand of messed up antisocial sad kid in the messed up antisocial sad kid game. that's kind of the point isn't it...thirdable it's just always funny to run into this opposite genre of person when i personally think it's funny and endearing when a teenaged girl has some fun killing people. how is that not an endearing character trait to you? so sad..........😔

”Damn I’ve been feeling kind of shitty about what I went through when I was 15-16. I wonder if there’s a way to get all these feelings out besides therapy”

....why are the youtube comments so mad lol don't y'all like to have fun. don't we like to have fun here

I got.... my official adhd diagnosis....🥺🥺🥺🥺

Had my appointment where she went thru all the different parts of the testing and what they found by it. All sorts of things that I didn't even Realize what it was testing. And they pointed to combined type adhd!!!!!

There was also an iq test involved, specifically to test working memory in comparison to other categories, bc that's smth that adhd people tend to score low on. And I did too!!!! Compared to my other scores, at least. It was still average overall, but I scored "high average" on verbal comprehension and "superior" on perceptual reasoning and processing speed. WHICH MEANS!!!! Working memory was my low thing!!! Another thing pointing to it!!!!

Also the weird X test I took was the CPT-3 test and apparently it was geared Specifically towards adhd stuff. Which bc of my "atypically fast" reaction speed + "very elevated" commissions rate (which in this context means incorrectly hit space bar, aka I clicked when I wasn't supposed to) it showed a strong indication of impulsivity & some indication of inattentiveness and vigilance. That impulsivity is the big one here tho.

I'm just really excited now. I have a long report talking about all my brain stuffs that says I Do have adhd and that it would benefit me to take stimulants. AND!!!!! That I DONT have depression or anxiety!!!! That's a fuckin big one!!!!!! Bc they've avoided giving me stimulants in the past bc of the "anxiety" except I don't got it!!!! The examiner said exactly what I thought about it, which is that the prior disgnoses of depression and anxiety probably stemmed from effects of the untreated adhd. Aka I had Feels Bad Disorder. Ykno? Except not actually a disorder bc it was just a byproduct.

SO! Hopefully that can help me to get proper meds as soon as possible. Gonna be contacting my doctor to set up an appointment... soon!!!!!

Oh I do not like that two of my ships right now has someone that's deeply oppressed on a systematic level in their story having to set aside their own morals and values for their extremely privileged lover who does not bother to truly understand their pain, often trying to make excuses for the oppressors.

my dog might die tonight

my mom's depressed and emotionally exhausted, to the point she slurs her words and feels like a zombie most days

has said to my face she doesn't want to fix it

that soon her mom will die and me and my sister are grown so...

we don't need her

and my dog's old and sick

in pain

at the vet getting oxygen and medication

to see if he'll make it through the night

and thank god he's there, so he doesn't have to suffer

but he's not next to us

he might die alone away from us

i think there's some poetic bullshit there

he would die in pain by our side

but he has a chance to survive away from us

and if he doesn't make it till the next day he'll die alone, but without pain

i just want to take everyone's pain away

but I can't

i can't fix it

it's not up to me

i can't do shit

U-Uhm, goodness... Hi there, Mo.jo! Name's Cri.cket.. J-Jim.iny Cri.cket...

Y-You're actually uh... friends.. I believe with Fu.zzy, right? Well.. I know Berry and Fu.zzy are pretty close and it got me thinking..

Despite being a... well, villain.. what made you start liking Ruby in the first place? I'd assume a villain such as yourself would have a pretty tough heart to crack! P-Pardon for being nosy, heh..!

Asked from @berryshipbasket

🧬 Puny bug, you take far too long to get to your point! And the stuttering!! It is surely intimidating to be in the presence of such an awe-inspiring evil presence such as my own, but you must speak more like me, Mojo Jojo - for I speak in sentences that are clear and concise! I deliberate the purpose of my statements quickly, with no arbitrary additions! In a moment I will be answering these questions that you have asked me to answer, but let this be a warning to you, and all others who may be reading to not waste the precious, valuable, and important time of Mojo Jojo! 🧬

🧬 Now then, while I am aware of that brutish backwoods bonehead and his pathetic insect partner, to call them "friends" of mine would be a gross exaggeration. Their caliber of evil falls far below the fearful feats of Mojo Jojo, for there is nothing more evil than me, especially not that simple hick and wanna-bee villain! Not to mention, they obviously let their infatuation for each other stand in the way of their true potential as villains. Meanwhile I, Mojo Jojo, have achieved the perfect work-life balance! I manage the time spent on plots and schemes and time spent with my partner, Cherry Coading, with little to no effort! I prioritize the labor which is required of my evil plans, while also regularly ensuring that my dear Cherry receives the attention they require! I do this because I, Mojo Jojo, am not only the greatest villain in the world, but also the greatest boyfriend in the world!! 🧬

🧬 Seeing as there is no greater dating option on the face of the Earth than I, Mojo Jojo, it is obvious that Cherry would fall for me the moment we first locked eyes - which they did, of course! And as evil as I may be, I would be a fool to ignore the clear advantages of reciprocating such feelings, especially the feelings of a slightly remarkable human such as Cherry Coading. After all, their intellect, at most, is at least half of my own - which is higher than any other human could hope to achieve. They are also unusually dedicated to ensuring that my plotting sessions do not stretch on for too long, and it is good for morale to keep someone around who will always be impressed by my plans and machines alike! With all the obvious benefits to a partner such as Cherry, I can stand to bear the sickeningly saccharine sensibilities that they insist on exhibiting. 🧬

Remember in Teen Titans (the good one) when Raven sort of died and then came back and bb was rlly freaked out cuz she was acting different? Remember when she responded to that with “don’t worry, blue is still my favorite color, and you’re still not funny.” And remember in that one episode where bb and cyborg went into Raven’s mind scape meditation thingy and Raven revealed that pink was her favorite color and that she thought bb was funny?

I think that she said the wrong things one purpose then, because she knew that bb would understand that she was sort of saving face since that information was sort of something only they shared (with the exception of cyborg but he’s the third wheel bestie so yknow)
