#I compiled all my films into a post full of links instead of doing what i had to do#Heres hoping listening to malevolent will help focus the brain#Trying to please the adhd by giving it the special interest while also doing work#Giving it the dopamine hit so maybe i can get stuff done#treating my brain like a wild horse#malevolent#ig

Do you ever see yourself writing Buddie fics again? I just finished reading through all your works and you are just absolutely phenomenal at writing them together! 🙏🏾❤️
Firstly, thank you! That’s very kind of you to say!
Secondly, while I can’t really say “never” about any writing project, the chances really are not good barring some kind of miracle (as evidenced by my slight return when Buck was made canonically bi). I’ve only got limited creative bandwidth at any given moment and it hasn’t been directed towards 9-1-1 for a long time now.
But genuinely, thank you for saying hi and thank you for letting me know you’ve enjoyed my writing!
#the ghost ship answers questions#superfamilydeadpool#my creative bandwidth can’t be directed at my original projects right now either#the unmedicated feral rats that run my brain decided to open the nozzle full blast with DC comics for some agonising reason#and will not divert#even though its not a dopamine hit because no one’s reading those lol#and yet

Slowly discovering the freeing power of the words "I know this is bad but I'll fix it in editing."
#bjk talks#bjk writing rambles#more rambly diary thinking out loud lol don't mind me#i really am starting to feel like very slowly i am actually learning to be a better writer from all this fic stuff#in addition to producing Feels#slash actually starting to develop a writing process rather than just kind of word-spewing#i really hope the end beat of this chap has the impact i want bc it is taking considerable leadup to get there XD#but i'm starting to hit a rhythm of getting some done each day without burning myself out#and focusing on producing a draft that can then be molded#it's challenging because my brain wants the quick dopamine hit of finishing and publishing#rather than focusing on the intermediate steps#tbh this is probably a big part of why longfic has intimidated me up to this point XD#anyway for anyone following along i think i'm about 3/4 done with OYE chapter 4#it's turning out longer than i expected#HOPING to have a full draft to spend time editing this weekend but we'll see#after all this rambling about it the actual chapter is probably gonna be anticlimactic but it helps keep me motivated XD#</ramble>

more stanford thoughts
forgets to eat CONSTANTLY. his appetite is all fucked up from not having a stable source of food (plus a secret second reason that i may expand upon later)
this man has definitely done Alien Drugs. Alternate Dimension Drugs. Whatever. Whether intentionally or unintentionally he has definitely had at least a small handful of Weird Drug Experiences.
triangles used to be his favorite shape before the whole bill thing happened. he liked triangles bc they’re “the strongest shape”. now, he understandably is not as much of a fan. (if you ask him what his favorite shape is, he’ll say he doesn’t have one. he still likes the concept of triangles. he just doesn’t like to think about it because well. the whole being tortured by a triangle thing. he also feels embarrassed about it bc what kind of fuckin loser is afraid of a shape? like. he’s not AFRAID of triangles. that would just be ridiculous. but like….. having an image of a malevolent triangular entity seared into your brain as your sole focus in your efforts to defeat it while isolating yourself AND being in survival mode nearly 24/7 for THIRTY YEARS is probably uh. not the healthiest thing in the world. yaknow?
he likes soup but never eats it because it “takes too much time”. he prefers a meal like a sandwich, so he can eat half of it and then leave the rest on a random workbench to be forgotten about.
this bitch audhd for realsies
he did in fact install that metal plate into his own skull and it was in fact a traumatizing experience 👍 whatsherface mcgee prophet lady was also there but she didn’t or couldn’t help him for uhhh reasons i haven’t thought of/decided on yet :)
i want to give him something like a bag of holding like in d&d. i think he deserves it. plus he’s gotta have a place to put all his trinkets!!!
not specifically about ford but i hc that instead of “dungeons dungeons and more dungeons” being abbreviated to d&d&md, it’s abbreviated to 2DMD. i think it rolls of the tongue better. sounds cooler. the works.
#i have the opposite of brain rot. brain expansion. i am learning and growing. my power grows infinitely stronger#i can feel the brain folds forming it’s been so long since i’ve been OBSESSED with a character like this i almost forgot what it felt like#it’s like a breath of fresh air tbh#but like with pure adrenaline and dopamine added into it#the neurotransmitters are having a fuckin party up there man istg#the walls of my brain are shaking with the force of the bass from the music my thoughts are partying to lol#aaaaaanyways#still going insane!#just doing so on a full stomach bc going insane on an empty stomach is bad vibes and can lead to The Uh Oh Zone#gotta avoid the Uh Oh Zone#my stuff

Work with your brain, not against it
I find that when I'm at home and I can work with my brain (as opposed to against it like is required of me at work), I can still get things done and I'm considerably less exhausted and more satisfied at the end of the day. Truth is... following the dopamine and letting yourself get distracted enough times will eventually bring you full circle to being distracted BY the thing you were initially distracted FROM. Plus you got 38 other tasks started in the meantime. And let's be honest here, starting is often the hardest part. So.. WIN WIN! So don't get frustrated when you can't focus. (If you're working... Save the frustration for when you're on company time LOL) Roll with it.. And you'll eventually roll right back around!
#autism#mental health#adhd#autistic#actuallyautistic#undiagnosed autistic#neurodivergent brain#ND brain#ND stuff#let yourself get distracted#follow the dopamine#full circle#work with your brain not against it#forced focus is fucking exhausting

Sometimes I'm surprised that monster hunter isn't more popular among the creature design and spec evo corners of tumblr, at least the portions that also play video games, and then I remember that it's just about as hard as soulsborne games (I'd argue some specific entries are even harder) but doesn't have any of the atmospheric or story elements to attract people. It gets by on sheer gameplay alone and isn't a pvp game either. There is no way to make the game easier besides picking one of the less mechanically complex weapons and git gud. If it wasn't for the neat dinosaurs I couldn't think of a game less alluring to the average tumblr user
#a lot of other games it's a combination of escaping into another world with stuff like immersion and story#monster hunter as an ip adamantly refuses to elaborate about the world it takes place in#there is no overarching story and there's basically no lore with few exceptions e.g. fatalis but even that's really barebones#mh is just like. you're a hunter. now go kick the shit out of dinosaurs with your giant guts sword#there have been a lot of memes over the years about how it also doesn't have a tutorial it just expects you to figure it out#it has extensive ''explain how this works'' popups but they only exist for certain mechanics#and somehow half the time manage to communicate nothing of use#but actually important stuff like ''how do i use this weapon'' are not explained ANYWHERE within the game itself#and it has some of the most complicated mechanics i've ever seen in a real-time combat game i.e. charge blade and hunting horn pre rise#it just does the equivalent of giving you a gun you need a master's degree to operate at full potential and throws you to the wolves#and if you try to naively look up how some of the weapons work you get multi-page hard-to-parse essays#i STILL don't know how hunting horn works pre-rise because every time i try to read a guide my eyes glaze over#like there are perhaps few other franchises more unfriendly to an ''easy mode my beloved''-type person#not to rag on those people. there's nothing wrong with that but some games are just NOT going to work with you in that way#i pretty much only like it because i'm unfortunately a Tryhard Gamer#and the feeling of being a small human killing a dragon god by sheer skill and willpower is like crack cocaine to me#i would be more frustrated by mh's lack of any lore to speak of if it weren't for the gameplay injecting dopamine straight into my brain

have resorted to bribing myself to work. which....is arguably what a salary is but frankly that's not cutting it anymore.
#I need something more immediate. i need INSTANT GRATIFICATION#i need...[sob]....i NEED DOPAMINE#phew#squirrel posting#recently i read piranesi and now my brain keeps going like. idk. that doesn't seem so bad#i would probably be fine in the House right?#i mean i cant fish and i hate being cold and i have a terrible sense of direction. but it can't be worse than full time employment

Okay so, having been writing Lumberville for eight years now, I knew that most people don’t understand the definition of insanity, but I didn’t know people would try to argue with you on it? And start questioning your morals when you tell them that an evil character isn’t insane “despite what they’ve done”??
#Lumberville#mental health#mental illness#IT’S GENUINELY SO BAD#“so you think cannibalism is normal??” < my MOTHER after I told her that a cannibal character of mine wasn’t insane#me who had just told her that insanity means complete loss with reality which is not what is going on with the character: what#“but HE thinks cannibalism is normal! that’s insane!”#I literally never said that he thought cannibalism is normal. he knows it’s bad. he knows that he’s hurting people and their families#(for those unaware: the character of mine we were talking about is Mikhail. he was starving in the woods as a kid and his first meal in#days was another human. the dopamine rush of eating/being full then tricked his brain into thinking that cannibalism was the reason why#he’s literally addicted to it. she knows the lore)#it’s literally the Edgar Glith situation all over again (Edger is another OC of mine)#Edgar Glith is a serial arsonist at the age of 17. people all the time call him “insane 😱😱😱” then get mad when I tell them he’s not#the only time Edgar loses touch with reality is when he’s having TRAUMATIC FLASHBACKS#GOD I HATE HOW IGNORANT AND CRUEL PEOPLE CHOOSE TO BE

wondering how much different my life would be if my ADHD was medicateddddddd
#so many of the things I would have to do to unfuck my life would require me to suddenly wake up with the drive to do anything#that doesn't funnel my brain full of easy immediate and repeated dopamine hits.#pluto txt

person: *shows even the slightest hint of interest in music that I enjoy*
me: ah yes a new victim muhahahaha
#this is what listening to the wonder years will do to your personality#it's fun because it's so easy to steer the conversation into that direction#mention hobbies then music then ppl wanna hear it bc they haven't heard of it#then they express even the slightest bit of positive feeling for the music#and it's done#you have been caught in my trap#you will never find peace from me mentioning them every single time i see you for the rest of your life#i can't even think about the lyrics too hard because then I'll start infodumpjng to myself in my head#and then whoops it's been hours and I've just been hyping myself up thinking about how good the music is#i already know this information. i know it's good. i still need to scream ITS SO FUCKING GOOD THO in my head every so often lest i go insane#i haven't generated this much dopamine since I was in middle school and foaming at the mouth over fandoms#anyway if you're wondering what sparked this it's bc i made the mistake of listening to hum again this morning#then you're listening to wyatts song and thinking of screen door and whoops time to go listen to greatest generation in full again i guess#and do not even get me started on cardinals ii#you go from brothers & right into cardinals so it flows perfectly and then into cardinals ii and that is the peak of human emotion#i meed them to play all three in a row live and i need it to be recorded so i can listen to it even though the pure bliss may kill me#it just hits different when it's live bc in the studio version the drums stop when going from brothers & into cardinals#but the drums keep fucking going in the live versions there's an actual climactic peak where it fades right into the next and it is perfect#and they have live recordings going from brothers & to cardinals and cardinals to cardinals ii#but afaik they haven't played all three in a row yet. mayhaps next year......#though experiencing that live would probably permanently alter my brain#yes i am aware that i am very insane about them i cannot stop it and it is incurable#actually literally better than drugs imo#anyway look at me getting sidetracked on what was supposed to be a short tumblr break between studying for exams#i probably shouldn't listen to twy when im trying to focus on something else lol#you get into music bc it's the only hobby where you can enjoy it without dedicating extra time to it#and then it ends up taking over your thoughts and time way more than just doing regular people hobbies would have done#music#mine

It’s sunny & warm enough to be in short sleeves today. I cleaned my room did all the dishes swept the front stairs watered the plants did laundry went to the farmers market bought too many oranges (then ate too many oranges) played music full volume & sang along bc no one else is home. Yesterday I walked to the beach & in the wet sand until I got blisters. I found 2 big sand dollars and put them on the steps to dry out. Now I’m barefoot and bare shouldered with all the windows open & my neighbor is playing guitar & it’s coming through the walls & I think actually everything might be alright!!!!
#god the weeks of rain cold fog and no fun due to#school and work#did a doozy on my mood I think#I love the world again!! I feel the whimsy#I feel the joy in the little things#I walked past a tree of grackles screaming at eachother and laughed#I met a women at the bust stop when I was taking out the trash at like 8am#and she told me how to make soup using the variety of figs we have in the yard#I told her we don’t water the trees so the texture of the fruit is bad#she gave me advice on how to water them but keep it drought freindly :)#the world is full of good!!!#my brain is full of dopamine!!!#and now…time to walk to the library and sit inside for 6 hrs doing lectures & readings lol
