Hello! I’m alive! Sorry it’s been forever.
Hello new faces, I see you guys! And hello old faces, I’ve missed you!
Weight loss has unfortunately not been a priority in my life lately, however getting strong is! 💪
I’m still in physical therapy. I was officially diagnosed with Paget’s disease of the bone. It effects my hips, lower back, and legs. Especially on the left side. I’ve started pain management and I’m working on my strength and my stamina and trying not to look in the mirror during this process because… I’ve gained a bit, I won’t lie to y’all. But, it’s been HARD! I went from walking 16k steps a day to barely breaking 300 back in October 2022. My average as of May 2023 is about 6-7k steps so obviously I am improving but, it’s so much slower than I would like it to be. I’m also working full time so a lot of my time is taken up there but I promise I haven’t forgotten about this blog or all of you.
I’m sorry for the messages I haven’t responded to, I appreciate all of your kind words and all of you. 💗🫶🏻
If you find this post from my Paget’s disease tag, please feel free to reach out. I would love to connect with people who have what I have. Every doctor I ask, “How many people have you treated with this disease?” They always say, “You’re my first!” So any and all experience I can gather from others I am thankful for!

I have no clue how to tag this but I figured I’ll post in case it has responses.
Does anyone who sees this know how to get a better relationship with Fitness? I’ve got to fix mine but it’s not my strong suit and I never enjoy it- the only sport I enjoyed I can’t do anymore and I don’t really want to learn other sports. If anyone knows any tips, small workouts for people, who’ve been a bit inactive, or anything like that - could them message or reblog with some? Any tips for motivation too- genuinely anything.

Building Strength as You Age: A Beginner's Guide
Starting a strength training routine can be an excellent way to improve overall health and wellbeing. Lifting weights three times a week can lead to sustained improvements in strength, which can have numerous benefits. For instance, increased strength can help maintain independence, reduce the risk of injuries and falls, and boost overall wellbeing.
Before you start resistance training Before you start, it is essential to remember that the benefits of exercise generally outweigh the risks and resistance training has a lower injury rate than many team sports. However, if you have a medical condition or concern, consult with your doctor before beginning a new exercise routine. Additionally, be aware that your body may take longer to recover from workouts as you age, so be sure to give yourself rest days in between sessions. Older adults are also at greater risk of dehydration, so it is important to make sure you drink plenty of water during and after exercise. Getting Started You don't need fancy equipment to start building strength. Begin with bodyweight exercises or use water bottles as weights. Remember to build up, adjust exercises according to your ability, and how much you've exercised before. Focus on proper form and movement rather than speed. Here are some exercises to get you started: Sit-to-Stand
Stand up from a chair and sit back down, building strength in your major leg muscles.
Squats
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, keeping your back straight and lowering yourself as if sitting in a chair. Then stand back up.
Wall Press-Ups
Stand facing a wall, placing your hands on the wall at shoulder height. Lower your body toward the wall and push back up.
Calf Raises
Stand straight and rise onto your toes, then slowly lower yourself back down.
Bicep Curls
Stand or sit with feet hip-width apart, using light hand weights (or water bottles if you have) and bend your elbows to lift the weights towards your shoulders. Tips and Progressions – Start with 8-12 repetitions per set and increase as you get stronger. – Aim for two to three sets per exercise. – Incorporate rest days between sessions. – Gradually increase the weight or reps as you get stronger. – Consider working with a personal trainer or joining a group fitness class for motivation. Additional Tips – Incorporate 150 minutes of aerobic exercise per week, such as brisk walking or cycling. – Engage in balance training and daily activities like gardening or carrying groceries. – Set achievable goals and track your progress. – Exercising with a group or in a gym can help keep you motivated and build social connections. Remember, it's never too late to start building strength. Start slowly, be patient with yourself and start to enjoy the benefits of a stronger, healthier you! (Source: theconversation.com)

headcanon that percy's most reoccurring nightmare about tartarus is the one where he loses annabeth to the pit. the one where he trips over the rogue lace of his left shoe and misses her fingers by centimeters. the one where his hands get clammy due to nerves and she slips out of his grasp. the one where they descend over the cliff together but he isn't strong enough to hold the weight of arachne. the one where she uses her knife to slice his palm and catch him off-guard so she can wiggle free. and the one where she's bleeding from the wound on her head. begging him not to tamper with fate. to let the prophecy play out. and a silent conversation passes between them. an 'i love you' and 'goodbye' in the same breath. and he stares into her eyes for what he knows is the last time and lets go. the one where he has to watch annabeth sacrifice herself to save the world.
#the annabeth and luke parallel of sacrificing themselves to save the world 👀#also i hc this manifests in percy's life through making sure his shoes are always tied#constantly checking to make sure his hands are dry at any given moment#becoming almost obsessive with building strength in his arms#wearing fingerless gloves everywhere he goes#making sure he tells her he loves her everyday#gods i wish these tartarus nightmares were talked about more in the books#even more so the affects of how it manifests in their lives#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo text post#pjo#pjo headcanon#percy jackson#annabeth chase#percabeth#percabeth headcanon#percy has nightmares#annabeth doesn't know what abt bc he doesn't talk abt it#but she knows he's hurting and it's killing her

OKAY LAST POST OF THE DAY THEN I'M DONE–
This is something I was VERY nervous to post for some reason, but I've been SUPER into Elden Ring lately so, here's some designs I did for Archie and Maxie a few months back!!
( @abiding-by-the-laws-of-color and @ribbononline were huge inspirations for both the background and parts of the design process!! )
This took me about 3 weeks total because I had some struggles with them design wise (mostly Maxie, his gave me the most trouble), but in the end I'm VERY happy with them!! Maxie's minimal armor was inspired by the Black Knife Set, while Archie's is a mix of the Solitude Set and Relanna's Set and, had I drawn it, his helmet would've been like Guile's.
#i have a lot i could yap about with what went into the design process for these two but i wont LMFAO#Maxie's meant to be an Int build with mostly soceries#Archie's a Strength build greataxe haver bc I think him having a giant axe will always be cool asf in my mind#my three week struggle on these months ago was WORTH it brother#i learned a lot about rendering on these two and im SO glad#pokemon#magma leader maxie#aqua leader archie#hardenshipping#pokemon oras#elden ring#sorry elden ring enjoyers who see this#nugget art!!#nugget's yapping again

DATV Spoilers - The Handling of Previous Story/Lore In DATV
Quick PSA: If you’ve read my post on the lore/story threads dropped – it’s not a list of what I expected or even wanted to see addressed/answered in DATV.
It’s pretty much a given that Kieran and the Architect were never going to come back in any meaningful way, I understand that. Questions about what happened to Anora, Anders, Cullen’s clinic etc...never expected to get an answer about them – at all. The line of succession in Ferelden and Orlais? I expected that sometime down the line it would have to be streamlined into one option for both nations, not a problem – there’s so many choices it’s impossible to account for, and I understand that.
This is just a list of plot threads left unanswered that will, most likely, remain unanswered.
There’s no DLC planned – the team is working on Mass Effect 5 now. There’s no conclusion to the fate of the south of Thedas outside of some codex entries and some dialogue. They can patch the Executors cutscene out, maybe - perhaps they could even do the same to anything relating to the south of Thedas. Yes, these areas were not completely destroyed by the Blight – they can rebuild – but it comes across as being so meaningless that I ever cared for these places in the first place. To learn that after ten years of waiting all we cared for get devastated and left in limbo...it’s hard to put into words the bitterness I felt at that realization, and seeing that final cut-scene drove the nail into the coffin of how foolish I felt for even caring in the first place.
A codex entry or letter would have been nice – but my expectations for DATV was solely for a good story that added to the lore and world of Thedas. Instead, it felt entirely reductive – glaringly so when you account for the ‘Executives’ twist.
The world of Thedas has been watered down and its worldbuilding/lore diminished - slavery in Tevinter is non-existent, the Crows being an organization that indoctrinated children is never touched upon, any mystery of ancient Tevinter and the elves is answered (badly!), the Dalish have effectively disappeared and become the Veil Jumpers...it all feels so hollow, so shallow, that I ever cared about these things in the first place.
The issue is that the dev’s gave us only three choices, told us that as the story was contained to the north of Thedas – that our other choices weren’t relevant to the rest of the game with their intent being to not effect anyone's head-canons...before doing so with ‘the blight has devastated most of everywhere you went previously’.
These were story/plot threads that were woven throughout the narrative of the first three games – the things that made me care and become invested in the world of Thedas to begin with. In a game that was set-up to be a direct sequel to Inquisition and Trespasser I hoped that, at least, what was brought up in Inquisition would be mentioned.
Perhaps my list is a little too detailed with plot threads and issues – if anything that can be attributed to the incredible world-building done in the first three games! I love those games, I love the world of Thedas...which is why this game utterly baffles me with its choices.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a good game but not a good Dragon Age game.
----------------------------------
Edit: DATV absolutely has a lot of problems outside of its handling of the lore and story of the previous games. I would not say its a good rpg in any sense, but as a weird 'action-adventure rpg lite' game I did have some fun moments and enjoy myself. Would I recommend it to anyone? Absolutely not.
I heard someone describe it as a 'junk food' game and I very much agree with that statement. I found enjoyment in it, but to do so I usually had to turn off my brain, which is not a compliment towards DATV.
The game released very well optimized (especially considering how most companies are content to release half-baked games and patch them later) and did create some really interesting visual set-pieces like the Battle of Weisshaupt. But those moments I enjoyed were few and far between, and far overwhelmed by the negatives of the game - such as story, lack of conversation/conflict/role-play options, bad character writing etc...
Calling the game 'good' is, perhaps, a stretch, and I totally get that. Calling it 'mediocre with some good parts' may be more accurate.
#if anything take my list as a love letter to these games!#incredible world-building and lore#incredible characters!#each game has its strengths and faults but I love them all the same <3#the amount of character sheets / lore threads I have devoured is absurd haha#lmao magical illuminati were certainly a choice#dragon age#datv spoilers#dragon age the veilguard#datv critical#bioware critical#edited a keep reading in! sorry it was so long lol#edited the title to make sure that people know there are spoilers to the game under the cut of my post#final edit to clarify that my definition of a 'good' game is absolutely messed up thanks to other games I've played lmao
