had to get in bed early bc as soon as I tried to play online with a friend i got nauseous as fuck and ran straight to the bathroom where i proceeded to dry heave for a minute straight bc of the screen. Iāve been neglecting my physical health ever since grandma died by not eating (not doing it consciously, everything just tastes bland or has a weird aftertaste plus thereās nothing around here to get out and even if i buy the stuff i want at the store, as soon as i go to eat it, i suddenly refuse to eat it and i feel like i donāt even have to eat and only do so once i get horrible cramps from not eating all day) and overdoing the caffeine every day for a year and a half, so itās finally catching up to me.
neglecting my physical health for this long has finally taken its toll on me and i need to try and fix it before i actually get sick enough to end up in the hospital, but i legit donāt think i can. I canāt just force myself to eat bc i already wonāt eat most things due to the texture or consistency and i cant force myself to eat the few things I actually will eat. the caffeine i can fix, and it wonāt take all that long to fix it, but the eating problem? I have zero fucking clue how Iām gonna fix that.
my online friend that I video chat with every day is gonna start calling me at 6:30am every day to remind me to make myself something to eat, scrambled eggs specifically bc itās easy to cook pretty quick and is actually good for u inline pancakes and syrup, and make sure I have a snack bag packed for work days bc if I donāt eat breakfast, I wonāt be able to eat again until 12:30 when we get back in from the route and rn I canāt wait that long, so tomorrow on our weekly grocery run, Iām gonna try and get stuff thatās not sugary to snack on during the route.
Iām definitely gonna be pissed off every morning with his calling for a while bc Iām very grumpy that early, but rn I need the annoyance of it. Will I bitch and moan about it every single day? oh yeah. do I absolutely have to do it otherwise Iāll get sick? unfortunately yes, I do. Iām limiting caffeine to only in the mornings at work, and itās just gonna be tea instead of coffee (which I already do) and limit the sweet tea at lunch, so at least Iāve got a basic plan for now. actually making myself eat tho? thatās the real challenge.
#currently Iām existing on a diet of tea three pancakes the icassional lunch (not always bc I wonāt eat most of the stuff there)#and whatever small dinner I can force myself to eat#oh and a 42oz lotus every single day and sometimes twice a day#Iāve been living like that for at least three months now#Iāve had an issue with this the entire time since grandmaās passing tho#it gets better for a while but then it gets worse for a while#and it cycles back and forth#and not having a therapist rn is rlly bad for me bc I spent so much time#and energy fixing my mental health that I neglected my physical health#so I fucked around and am finally finding out what happens when I neglect myself#thatās probably why my pain is worse than usual bc Iām not drinking regular water either#just the shitty sparkling flavored water which I fucking hate#I just feel like itās all my fault yknow? that I shouldāve caught this earlier

emily prentiss + leaving and coming back for her family
#criminal minds#criminalmindsedit#criminalmindsverse#proceduraledit#emily prentiss#emilyprentissedit#cmverseedit#tvedit#filmtvcentral#dailyflicks#femalecharacters#bitchys#mine#edit#*#category*#tag meta#forever thinking about emily prentiss as a yoyo falling away from her family and coming back when they tug#and that her motivation for back and forth is the same - it's always about what she thinks is best for her family in that moment#her choice is always to protect them and the fact that she leaves to protect them from HER? that she always sees herself as the problem??#(she ruined matthew she betrayed doyle she killed tsia)#BUT BUT BUT them needing her? hotch asking her to lead reid asking her to fight jj asking her to stay??? she always /always/ comes back#and i find it very interesting that this yoyoing usually runs parallel to her own moral reflection - she left the first time because she#both morally objected to strauss's political game and to protect the team as individuals. she came back in s7 because she wanted something#'clean.' and she considered leaving in s13 and s17 because she had broken her own moral code each time. and that's such a meaty facet#of emily as a character because her priority is ALWAYS her family and protecting them. but what that looks like changes and costs#and is never ever an easy choice for her. emily does what she needs to as a protector but she doesn't let herself off the hook. she thinks#DEEPLY about what she does and whether she's ok with her actions. which sends her toward distancing herself from her family#for their own protection (because she's the problem see above) and the whole cycle starts again!!#(someday i'll rant about how this all ties into her leaving in run - the one time it was about HER but also not - but i'm out of tag space)

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance
#kingdom hearts dream drop distance#khddd#sora#riku#my gif#i love comparing walk cycles they tell you a lot about a character#sora walks in a very bouncy and cartoony way compared to riku's more calm and even steps#i like how they contrast each other even in subtle ways like how sora's hair bobs up and down while riku's sways back and forth#this also shows their height difference more clearly

...Um. Super, super late DP Invisobang 2023 art?
The fic by Rockity Sock is still an unpublished WIP so far, but it's really nice and will hopefully be completed and published later.
It begins at the end of the Ultimate Enemy episode, with Dan getting trapped in the thermos. And... I'm not sure how much I can say without spoiling it, but a lot of really cool stuff happens. It's a psychological type of fic, about different types of prisons and punishments, and has time stuff and pocket dimensions, and redemption stuff. (I was only planning on drawing one illustration for IB, but when I saw the WIP, I wanted to see so many things animated. So many awesome visuals. I wish I could've animated them all.)
This is the part I did animate:
He just walked for now, searching for the tiniest crack. The darkness went on for seemingly forever though, and no matter how far he walked it kept on going Dan kept moving He tried his best to break through the walls but every ectoblast he formed fizzled out. Fading into the darkness. Oh, now it makes sense. His powers are being limited, it takes him a few more tries to believe it. The fact that heās trapped with nothing whatsoever. Endless hours spent, and wasted. Powers he has built up from the ground with no mentor, ones he trained endlessly after a decade. Gone, disappeared, muffled. Limited. Dan let out a laugh, one with no humor. A laugh that turned into a cackle, he couldnāt stop.
Here's Rockity Sock's AO3 account: https://archiveofourown.org/users/rockitysockity and tumblr account: https://rockitysock.tumblr.com/
(I also uploaded the video on deviantArt and YouTube)
#invisobang 2023#danny phantom#dan phantom#animation#asj art#...this took so much longer than it should've D:#I think it has 232 images of Dan.#I tried a few things for the fog rustle sound effect but I think I went with rubbing my hand back and forth across a soft comforter blanket#(I was originally going to go with swishing my hand back and forth inside a wet bowl but it'd ended up sounding like dry leaves.)#the cape sound effects are from snapping a little throw blanket up and down.#I forget now exactly what I'd used to made the zap sound. It took some time in Cakewalk to figure out and I'd tried looking up tutorials.#The moving background was made by making a 'bg tile' that I could stack horizontally.#And for the fog on the 'floor' there's 8 cycling images at the start of the animation and 9 cycling images for the end of the animation.#For the spin I was going to make 112 frames for the background ...but after working on it for awhile I realized it'd take really long. :/#So I reused the background tile but put it in reverse and overlaid a rotation version at the end. (...though the fog obscures a lot of it)#I'd used the magicposer website mannequin as reference to draw the key frames of Dan's spin.#I drew the images in Photoshop with the animation feature and then saved each one as a png.#Then imported them into Premiere Pro to add a few effects (the zoom for the first shot and the movement of the bg).#Lexx helped me a lot with figuring out music stuff and using Cakewalk for some sound editing.#But I also used Premiere Pro for some sound editing too.#(At one point I'd planned on animating three scenes and having a song in the bg. The growing sound in the first shot is the bass part.#(And things were going to be added onto the song in the other two scenes. ...But then I'd dropped the other two scenes.)#(I was also originally going to have Dan do two more quick ectoblasts after the first one but decided to cut them out for time.)#(also it's not that I can't draw hands. it's just that I knew it would take longer if I did. I'd decided to cut time by not drawing them.)#(...though most of my shortcuts ended up being long-cuts that also hurt the quality. ...Should've done things right.)

My life so far has just been this:
Animation? Yesss,, or actually, no.
Hold on *picks up animation again* yesSSS! Or wait. NO! *drops animation on the floor*
Ok one more time for science *picks up animation AGAIN* OH HECK YEAAAH!!! Wait a minute. No. *tosses animation in the trash*
...
...
Actually.. *gently picks up animation again*
I JUST CAN'T DECIDE!!!!
#I've been going back and forth on animation my whole life and I think I'll keep going like this for as long as I exist#back and forth between animation schools and non animation schools#picking up and dropping animation projects#and now I'm picking up animation internship pfjfkfkfjfk#I'll never escape this cycle!!

do you have any thoughts on the story of abraham and isaac? my parents talk about it and praise abraham for being willing to kill his son which..... scares me to say the least, and i'd love to hear your perspective as someone who seems more well-adjusted
Where I am now, it disgusts me more than anything. The interpretation of "I'm willing to sacrifice your life if I was told to" feels like the step before "I put you into this world and I can take you out of it." It's entitlement to a child, who is an independent individual, just because they are dependent on you for survival. I prefer the interpretation of understanding the actions you're taking and the reasons why (like how there's multiple religions that don't eat pork because it was so unsafe to eat at the time), especially if it's at someone else's expense.
Where I was in the thick of it all, it gave me morbid comfort that scares me now. I had fantasies of being a martyr for the church and the idea of being the next Isaac was just so appealing. Being a hand-selected sacrifice chosen by the Good Lord Himself? Sign me the fuck up, babey!
I think if I admitted that to my family, they'd be horrified.
It's another one of those stories or beliefs where I think the majority of christians just regurgitate what they've heard. It's a point of pride and devotion, but there's no personal reflection or cross-cultural awareness of it. Lean not unto your own understanding and whatnot. It's the potential that scares me the most, like the Quiverfull movement with the Duggars or Turpins. I'm sure there's stories now, but I can't remember them off the top of my head
(Also I will be telling my therapist someone on Tumblr called me "more well-adjusted" thank you anon)
#My therapist has called me 'surprisingly well-adjusted' before#He has since retracted that title and given it back multiple times#I don't know if you relate more to the 'Scared of my parents for praising that' or the 'Scared that I was okay with that' part#maybe both#either way the cycle ends here with you#No more bible quips and quotes that harm you and others. You find your own understanding and eventually it feels nice#It doesn't at first I will admit that. At first it feels like you're gonna go to Hell Right Here Right Now#But eventually you learn to trust yourself. It's a slow process. I've been in therapy for a good 6-7 years now#But one day you wake up and notice life feels more authentic. You feel like your values matter (and they actually do!)#And again it's slow. It's in bits and piece and back and forth. My worst habit is switching something from religious to moral#I highly recommend this type of therapy called ACT it's a CBT subtype#I'm usually not a fan of cbt so u know it helps if I recommend a subtype of it#CBT shit is so cheap I got a workbook from the library#this isnt relevant to the post but#my cat is trying to steal my burger king rn#it gets better (I have a cat) but progress isn't linear (eating burger king)#ex christian#religious trauma#anon tag

Nobody who wants to fuck kris does anything because shes out of their league and nobody who wants to fuck dominos does anything bc theyre mad abt it
#yes even gārandpa . He spends ct bouncing back and forth between disliking him and being confused#and wants to beat him with his staff for at LEAST 50% of shb.#Fanda doesnt count bc that was an act of self harm/power play with very little actual desire coming into play.#Meanwhile krisās side just ends up furthering her dehumanization via hero worship and perpetuating the cycles. Sad!#Haurchefant actually did smth and then died immediately and nobodys tried since rip .

"Come on, itās not like weāre cursed or something. Are we cursed?"
ST Epic Cycle AU feat. Nancy and Jonathan as Odysseus and Penelope (Pre-marriage (and race))
Psst, if you're curious, the dialogue is from The Weaver and the Carver , which is a very good Odypen fic, just saying. It is an Odysseus and Penelope meeting fic set to the backdrop of Helen's first kidnapping and is very well-written.
#st epic cycle au#i call this my crackfic au#and immediately start thinking of angst stuff to make for it#this is nancy as odysseus and jonathan as penelope btw#i flipped them back and forth for awhile (i knew this would be the couple they were though)#but the recent release of the underworld saga convinced me of doing it this way#see nancy's s4 talk with fred where she is convinced that jonathan had met someone else as if he isn't just waiting to see her again#(and being a bit idiotic but immediately going into action at the first chance)#jancy#jonathan byers#nancy wheeler#faith edits

My latest fic (part two of the two-parter) is taking a bit of time because I have once again written more than 25k words and I'm not done by far. Why?? Of course, then I get distracted writing several more, some of them related to the 'Hatoful Dreams' arc, some not so much.
Hmmm and I'm not sure where I'll take things after this arc either. Decisions, decisions

sick of being normal. I need to infodump on someone
#and it wonāt even be abt something cool or interesting#i talk sometimes#like I donāt need to talk abt marine biology I do that all day#I need to dissect Taylor swifts discography to someone#or talk about the sudden hole of bridgerton content Iāve found myself sucked into#or discuss the raven cycle (in an actual back and forth manor not just my analysis posts)

Because DOL is text-based and everyone has their own image and sightly different interpretation of the characters, can the fandom turn Degrees of Lewdity into like a Spiderverse kind of thing where all our different interpretations of the LIs like hang out inter-dimensionally? I think it'd be fun. :3c
#all the robins would be best friends and start a trauma recovery group#all the whitneys hate each other#the sydneys corrupt themselves or purify themselves in this odd back and forth cycle#etc etc etc#degrees of lewdity

Your writing is always great, I need you to write something to either making us optimistic about the future of the club or to make us realize how much in deep shit we actually are please š
Babe, just browse through my La Liga 2022/2023 tag and mourn with me. š
#funnily enough Iād say this: weāve been in deep shit since FOREVER.#the way Barcelona works (ie deep issues within structure and management) goes back DECADES.#we are spectacularly mismanaged and unprofessional on top of having a victim hood complex.#the environment - whether mediatic or politic - surrounding the club is an utter and disfunctional nightmare.#in every clubās environnement there has existed corruption and favouring friends in positions you want them in#but it is especially the case for this club.#needless to say I am not saying all of fcbās issues stem solely from itself and no exterior factors have ever influenced it.#a historically left wing club / figure head for a region/independentism movement / opposing centralism which controls the league/refs etc.#however as culers we tend to majorly - and rightfully - highlight the latest part without ever daring to question our precious multimil club#both factors (internal and external) have to be taken into account to understand āthe deep shitā.#that said now. as Iāve said this *is not new*. weāve had those issues for DECADES and yet this club became what it is today.#weāve reached highest of highs and lowest of lows while dealing with aforementioned factors.#so my very tired take this evening is to chill out; nothing we can do but watch unfold.#perhaps once again La Masia youngsters and lucky choices of coach will drag us up. perhaps new political president conflict still battling#over cruyffās heritage or against it will bring forth a good one; perhaps not.#overall a very Chill to us all.#weāre facing greatness and decadence and been on both sides of the coin; and thereās reassurance in knowing in both case we still did great.#this club has been rotting since mid 50s and you just have to roll with it and wait for the cycles to come and go.#anon ask#sorry it doesnāt make much sense rn Iāll talk about it more later. or NOT

Watched ep 3 and 4 and I'm back with more thoughts (mainly on ep 4)š«”
The scenes in episode 4 contrasting Rhaenyra and Alicent's stories, oh that's that excellent content. They're actually the heart of the show, I don't care about the rest just them.
Anyways the parallel of the rats though: when we see them for Rhaenyra's side as she is sneaking out of the Red Keep near the Dragon skull, representing her fleeing to freedom from her duty; while then seeing the rats on the bedframe in Alicent's story after she was forced to do her "marital duty" (that's rape :/ when he touched her face and she was forced to smile during that, I was raging, like oh Viserys count your days!)
Anyways after 4 episodes my thoughts can mostly be narrowed down to that meme "get a job. stay away from her" about both Rhaenyra and Alicent. (Ps let me know if you don't need to know my thoughts and I'll shut up, I yap too much haha)
OMG im so sorry this took so long to answer i've been on vacation and bridgerton part 1 is taking over my life š but YES oh episode 4 is absolutely heartbreaking like rhaenyra and alicent are both children being taken advantage of by these crusty old men when all they want is each other </3 they're the heart of the show and it will stay that way everyone say thank you ryan condal and sara hess!!!!!!
trust me your thoughts are not annoying i love hearing them š¤
#asks#noheteroexplanation#sooooo sorry this took so long im cycling rhaenicent and polin back and forth in my brain with such quickness

Ok ok ok but what if po3 was in denial? Like he refuses to believe hes that bad? Like he wants to believe that he has better reasons and he wouldn't go as far as they would? I feel like he would deny it even to himself for a good long while. I think he would only reach that point when pushed and hed have a nervous breakdown over it. Yknow like how some survivors will sometimes become the thing they hate/fear but dont want to acknowledge what they've become by making up excuses?
Okay. This concept is starting to leave "Ha ha funny Yandere robot" territory and that's a little uncozy for me personally. Like I'm still here and I will continue to engage you in thoughtful discussion but like. Anon you should make this post on your own blog instead of sending it to me.
Anyway yeah Yandere P03 who slowly isolates you and takes away your choice the same way the other Scrybes had done to him would absolutely give himself a mountain of excuses as to why he's doing it that makes it different from why they did it.
He's protecting you from them. He's giving you the game you wanted. He's just keeping you safe and entertaining you and doing everything he knows you want before you even have to ask.
I think the only think that'd trigger a breakdown is if you, the object of his affection, the one he's building all these excuses around, called him out on it. Compared his actions to the other scrybes, denied wanting any of this.
But you wouldn't do that.
You love him.
You'd never be so cruel
Look at all he's done for you.
You'd never imply he's the same as them.
You love him.
#P03 X Reader#In concept anyway#Look nothing against actual dark/trauma fics it's just.#Not my jam#I'm for the cycle of abuse and the fall out and recovery but I am not#I am not the guy to write that my dude#Anon you have a blog. I know you do. You need a Tumblr account to send asks#Just make the post#I don't think I understand anons#I enjoy the thought exercises trust me I love a back and forth#But atm it's me taking to the void about YOUR concept bud#Get off anon and reblog the ask sometime or just make your own post#cause I think I'm done with this now
