#be better do better

[alexibeeart]

hey real quick while I'm eating breakfast, while we're out there doing allsorts to Save Our Flag Means Death what we're NOT going to do is visit irl Stede Bonnet's grave to take smiling selfies, have parties at Teach's hole, and so on and so on. we're not going to confuse and glorify slave owning rapists with fictional characters from a fictional show, especially with how hard the writers have worked to make this story inclusive and safe, especially not in front of a fandom of real actual poc and women. we've already been through this but I guess we need a refresher.

Hi, I'm guilty of sending hate and I'd like to apologize, not entirely sure of what came over me

If you're truly the anon, or one of the anons, that have been sending hate...

I accept your apology. I get it, the fandom is currently heated. It's weird and uncomfortable and a lot of us probably wish it was just over with already. It's been a long day, and a long almost two weeks.

We're only human, we have emotions, we have lack of control. We make mistakes, we learn to apologize, we move on and grow from the experiences.

Each one of us is a person behind these usernames. Each one of us have personal lives out there, sometimes they're not great. Sometimes real life absolutely fucking sucks, and what we look for in the internet is escapism and comfort.

If being an anon to send hate and voice your frustrations out at the situation towards me and the other users has helped calm you down and see your actions for what they truly are--awful, that is--then I can only say I'm sorry. I'm sorry that whatever happened to you, today or in your past, that made you feel the need to lash out happened to you. I'm sorry you went through that. I hope you can come to terms with your own feelings and personal morals and values in time, and learn to not be so retaliatory with your words.

What you need to understand is that what was said today, regardless on if you're the one who said it, is not acceptable. These things are hurtful, and painful, and downright triggering. People hurt themselves over these things. Your words and your actions have consequences. I'm glad you were kind enough to own up and apologize.

And even if you're just some rando sending apologies in hopes that this blows over, just know that what I've stated above is my honest feelings. Maybe the "real" anon will see it. Who knows.

All we can do is learn from this experience and become better than who we were. Hate and anger are awful emotions, and you don't need to harbor those feelings inside yourself. I'm fine with being a punching bag, I've grown a thick skin. Some of my friends are not okay with it, though, and those are the ones that are really suffering today/tonight.

Take care of yourself.

-Cin

Well I like it but it’s not very well written. Also it’s a visual mess. The plot doesnt make any sense and the creators suck and its politics oscillate from mildly problematic to frankly baffling. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. However. the character

I'm sure many people have already shared this here, but I think it's important that people here on Tumblr need to see this.

Felt a need to draw hugs (thinking about sea grunks has made me extra emotional :’))

mantra when you fuck up is "i'm in my early 20s it's literally not a big deal"

Here’s my take on the whole audio books vs. reading:

Oral tradition of storytelling predates written ones by millennias, and honestly, which one you like is just a personal preference.

The actual difference is

when listening, you have no idea how to write characters’ names

when reading, you have no idea how to pronounce characters’ names

hope this helps!

From the book Organizing Solutions for People with ADHD:

Putting a coat on the back of a chair by the door is fine, but if you prefer, use coat hooks and a large catch-all basket for dropping keys, hats, gloves.

Small bookcase end-table next to the couch to store craft projects, books, and other things being worked on for easy access.

Add a storage unit near the dining room table to transition between eating and working there.

Daily toiletry items should be stored in a basket that you can move easily

Extra toiletries and medicine cabinet items go in open shelf/basket storage so they can be seen and used easily. If items no longer fit, purge the excess. Don't obscure the view!

If you disrobe in the bathroom, place a tall hamper in there.

Keep a set of cleaning supplies in each bathroom

Edit: I also have this post on budgeting with ADHD + feel free to check my tags, coz I am trying to remember to tag as needed for this stuff. :)

the curse of adhd:

i will remember with absolute clarity, when the thought strikes me that i have a text to send someone, that this is the fourth time in three days i've attempted to send this specific text

i will forget, in the time it takes me to pick up my phone, that i picked it up intending to send a text

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.
