#bread is just so fucking good

I recently had to do a project in one of my psych classes, and man, I knew that CBT was used for every little thing, but seeing over and over, "do CBT! CBT is the best for every mental illness!" was so jarring. I'm absolutely biased because of my own experiences, but I just don't think it's as universal a treatment model as it's touted.

If you didn't benefit from CBT, it's not because you're lazy or didn't try hard enough or lacked intelligence or foresight into your own needs. Frankly, it's a therapy model that (I think) shouldn't be the only readily-accessible model and among the only therapy models covered by insurance. Some of us should not be treated in a CBT model and that's okay. It's not a sign of poor character or unreasonable demands, and if you don't think it's a model that works for you, then it's your right to express that!

smth smth about 'the thing that the character did that you thought was rly rly funny in the moment is actually linked to a terrible trauma that lies within said character.' or wahtever.

Hello! What kind of workouts do you do, and what youtube channels do you rec???? I know youve answered this before, but i cant find the ask (^///^ )

hey! i don't really follow any youtube channels closely anymore, i just do my own thing. and also i don't mind this question being asked like 50 times because i like getting people active LOL. if my mediocre body inspires people, then i don't mind at all! read carefully anon :)

again to be completely honest, i am not an expert, never claimed to be, so whatever advice you're going to read right now is just my own experience/research. i am just a casual person who likes to move.

i started doing pushups during the pandemic in 2020 after a breakup basically, i was looking at shirtless guys on tiktok and i got inspired LOL so i just googled how to get a chest and it said pushups do the trick. and it does in fact work.

right now i'm trying to walk everyday, for example today i walked like 12-13k steps (your phone tracks this automatically, you can download an app for it too) because i read that walking is extremely good for weight loss, and just VERY good for you in general.

aside from that i have a pull up bar in my room, so basically i just lift myself up with both arms, as much as i can. i do this everyday pretty much, just randomly. i don't track anything, i just do it to maintain my body i guess? like i said idk what the fk i'm doing LOL i just workout for fun. genuinely.

in general, diet is key, make sure you're eating like an insane amount of protein per day. like 100g per day average, depends on your weight. i think the recommended amount is like 0.7-0.8g of protein times your weight. do not stop eating protein. every single day eat stuff like greek yogurt, protein shakes, protein bars (i get these from gas stations and amazon tbh) like you have to be consistent lmao.

i know protein is DISGUSTING most of the time. especially those chalky protein chips and bars. but, beauty is pain. just do it.

More official/proper ref of my Metalocalypse s/i 💖🫶💖🫶💖 I needed another milf for the books, I'm obsessed with it guys!

Like I said before she's the manager for @hotrodharts and @1980ssunflower and does a kickass job of it! She's meant to be something of a parallel to Charles whom she has THICK sexual tension with and possibly a mysterious past history with? :0 oooooo~ either way she's very fond of the boys, especially Toki, and in my dreams they see the both of them as parental figures 😊

EDIT: original meme by @tarraerae on Twitter 🫶

Flat colors!

This episode has fully moved me in the throuple category for Hoy, Tattoo, and Arun. Like I have been Team TattooHoy from the beginning because I know what I'm about and I still am (I'm with them till the end of the line baby), but I now think all three of them would just be so absolutely beautiful together. Like Tattoo wanted to comfort Arun while he cried, but didn't know how to do it. Hoy walked in and instantly got mad thinking Tattoo made Arun cry and was able to comfort him. Arun leaned on Hoy and Hoy let him like that shit was natural for them both and then Tattoo inserted himself between them on the couch. The show has long since established that Tattoo and Hoy are besties that will do pretty much anything for each other and now they have Arun. The only reason he's even living with Tattoo is because Hoy suggested it. And Hoy would be living with them too if he wasn't too lazy to move his shit back from the temple, lol.

And I don't know shit about tarot so please know I'm not speaking on what the cards actually mean, but the fact that Tattoo got The World while Hoy got The Star and Arun got The Moon just further confirms they would be the most beautiful throuple since the moon orbits the world and the stars surround them both.

I see the vision. I perceive the truth!

If I had a nickel for every cute elusive science boy who clearly has issues in some regards but keeps it close to himself, who experimented with technology beyond their means, who were named Viktor, and is probably considered queer by a majority of the fanbase. I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice.

so much for my nice relaxing weekend curled up inside with my book and my fresh bread that I made

my mom sent me a guilt trip text at 1 AM because apparently I haven't Atoned Enough for... being upset about her terminal illness on christmas, and crying, and being further upset that they left me alone to cry by myself, and snapping at my stepdad's mom for being homophobic at me while I was crying about being left alone to cry about my mom's terminal illness. and apparently I owe my stepdad's mom an apology for ""screaming at her"" (I did not scream) ""even if you think you were slighted"" (she was homophobic)

and it sucks because I thought we were past that, I actually was feeling a lot better and like I'd recovered from All The Emotional Drain That Was Christmas. and I waited MONTHS to start that book bc I was feeling shitty emotionally and I wanted to be able to enjoy it, and my plan for the weekend was to do that, and now it's all just. a big stupid pile of ugly feelings on the floor again

Ok so they often send us these company wide emails about free food in the office that was left over from some conference they had either that morning or the night before and I’m literally almost never in the office when this happens and always miss out on delicious food except this time I didn’t and literally ran to the lunch room to get my share as SOON as we got the email but then by the time I got there the sandwiches had been tossed around a bit and I also got caught in conversation with my coworker on the way up so i picked up one that was under the vegetarian label but wasn’t able to make sure it didn’t get mixed up with a meat one because there was like 10 other people trying to grab these sandwiches (people who live here LOVE this region specific sandwich place) so I just grabbed the one that I thought was vegetarian and provolone and I figured I’d just pick the cheese off when I get back to my desk but anyway once I unwrapped the sandwich I saw that the thin little bacon was actually hiding in there and obviously I couldn’t eat it so I put it to the side because I didn’t want to throw it out when I barely touched it. Anyways about 2 hours later I was like I guess the area should be clear now so let me just put this sandwich back in the lunch room so someone else can eat it at least and once I got there a miracle! And the whole point of sharing this story but in all the chaos I didn’t see but they had an actual vegetarian sandwich that I guess no one wanted waiting for me. It had avocado and tomato and sprouts and cucumbers and it was so fucking good!!! I didn’t even have to pick any cheese off because it didn’t have any!!! Good things truly do come to those who wait 😋

my only input on the wag discourse is that a( it's stupid, and, b( saying that lb is reducing herself to nothing more than a wag is, like, comical to me, because it's like getting mad at a cat account for only posting their cats. her socials are to talk about her experiences & the few other things she wants to show. it's not her entire life and acting like you know if she is 'reducing' herself or not is, in fact, reducing her as a person to nothing but an internet plaything, lol. you don't have to like her nor what she says but getting this mad over her saying the most milquetoast take possible ("hockey men will let you do a lot if you're conventionally attractive,") is wild. you might want to sit down for this one, but guess what man. the sky is blue also

they need to invent a "making new friends" that doesnt feel like pulling teeth.

I think that part of what like. kills me about the whole media literacy and critical thinking aspect of enjoying media these days is that people refuse to like. contextualize that

A. Bad media can still hold significant meaning to people

B. Media made for a demographic you aren’t apart of is not inherently bad media

C. Media made for and consumed by the opposite demographic is not inherently shallow or flawed nor is it above criticism for its media tropes either.
