⌇﹒★ More of worrying humor to explain things, and for today: you are the cause, whatever happens here is consequence.

"noo, I can't believe you're back" yeah i am 🙏 (I never left)
Okay, but focusing here: You are the consciousness, you dont lack ANYTHING, you are everything.
"but i'm trying to manifest x thing but i haven't see it on physical, manifesting is not for me"
"I can't manifest"
"non dualism is complicated"
"if i have everything, why i dont see it physically?"
Just to be clear, this is what you look like:
Tumblr media
Dude...Do you really need to see something in a LIMITED world to know you have it?...when you...are literally...UNLIMITED?? Bitch, please 😭😭😭😭😭
BUT, BTW☝️ thats not you, it's the ego. "Then i should hate the ego?" No no no, like it or not, it's still your creation (just like everything else), you just have to ignore it, let it be, let it think, let if ask, let it doubt, thats none of your business!

"You're explaining this shit like your ass, explain it properly"
Consciousness:
The consciousness is not something you can explain with words, with examples, the consciousness simply are, the consciousness is everything (literally), the consciousness is the god, the consciousness is the observer, the consciousness is YOU. The consciousness is the creator of everything, consciousness is the creator of the ego, of the world around the ego, of the mind, of everything. But even with different names, there is no separation between any of this, hence the "non-dualism", there is no separation between anything, everything is the same thing. You know when you're watching a movie, and they found an animal and they be like "Let's not give it a name so as not to get attached" ? THATS THE THING! "Wavering", "Limiting thoughts" and those concepts are BULLSHIT.
Tumblr media
☝️ "so how i manifest something?" "How i shift to my dr?"
You dont 😃
🤨 "wtf do you mean"
the feeling of having to do something, of wanting something, of needing something, of going somewhere, is an illusion of the ego, right? Right.
Answer me something: YOU as consciousness that are everything, that is everything, who knows that NOTHING is separate from you...what do you want? Fr, because...you have everything. Lets use for example a phone "i dont have a phone i'm reading this on the computer" your computer then, "but i dont have any of these i'm reading it on my refrigerator" whatever 😭 wherever you are reading from, adapt the example to your situation there. You're reading it by your phone, are you pretending you have a phone or you simply have it? You affirm 50k times, do a 30 days manifestation challenge to manifest your phone or you simply have? Thats the thing, your ego struggles to see something in the physical, and the problem begins when YOU identify with this struggle and think "oh I don't have it, poor me 😭🥺" ?? Bro, let it go
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"You're talking more than your mouth is full and you still haven't explained how I manifest/shift" C'MON
Stay with me: if you have your phone, HOW YOU NEED MANIFEST YOUR PHONE THAT'S IN FRONT OF YOU? You accepted you have it, right? Thats the thing, you as consciousness, just accept that shit, "oh but i cant see it, the physical haven't catch" the ego didn't catch on ☝️ because while the ego is "i have it..no i know i have it" and their thoughts be like "...but i cant see it bro", it kinda get to it, but yeah you can train the ego like "ok, but what if we already saw it and we dont remember?" You have to beat the logic with logic. OF COURSE the logic doesn't matter, but the human mind likes logic, so give it to the ego.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In case some of you need an example, I'll talk about how **I** shift/manifest something, bc i know sometimes some blogs be like "accept it" and many times we get a little lost, so I'm going to tell you how I do it in case some of you are confused.
How i shift/manifest
1. I sit or relax on my bed and observe
I like shifting when the ego is going to sleep, so i took control yk? I observe it, no rush, no expectations of something happening, I just observe the ego, i see how it feels, it feelings & etc.
2. I let go of it.
Dont focus on "ok omg i have to let go, ignore 3d" no no no no, just focus on BEING (And btw those most of time are the human mind). Just focus on the black of your eyes and be present and just know that you're everywhere, time doesn't exist, only the present moment, and you already have everything. Let go of time, of hoping, of expectations, you have it, you are.
I just lie down there, i dont expect anything, dont wait for anything, i dont hope for anything, i just accept that i'm observing a new ego now. It all happens naturally. I dont be like "i have to see it physical immediately " nah, i know that the physical is the last thing i should care abt.
Remember:
This isn't about having something, about being successful on anything, this is about letting be, it's about knowing who you, it's about being YOU, the real you, not the ego. I'm not implying "do this, you should to this, you have to" no no no, that's just a base bc i know sometimes we we got a little lost in the explanations.
⋆ ˕ ˚ ᜓ ꥈ 𞥊𞥊 ꥇ ˬ ̽ ֽ ٫ ⊹ ˖ ࣪ ‹ ࣪ ˖ ་ ᳝ ◝ ₊
Btw there's no difference between manifesting and shifting ok? They're both the same.
And it's important to explain that
Manifestation/shifting dont ""exist"", because you dont have to manifest/attract/shift something, you let it be, you accept it, that's all. You dont manifest or anything, you accept and let It be!

Something I never see in Stancest is Stanley becoming upset about what Ford went through with Bill. Like, its almost never brought up. And I honestly thought the Book of Bill would have did something, especially with the bit about Bill hammering nails into Ford's hands. I want Stanley to be so angry about those things that Bill did to Ford. I want Ford to finally feel validated for feeling scared and deranged during that time. Idk, I just see the trope of Ford being so angry about Stan's past transgressors (Their dad, Rico, maybe Jimmy, all of the John's and Jane's in his life) that I almost never see the opposite true. I want Stan livid about Ford's treatment when they were younger.
I like to think of a Stancest fic where Bill is visiting from Therapism on the Axolotl's behalf for some bullshit or another. But it all gets derailed because while Ford is bitter and uneasy and wants no business with Bill, Stan is spitting fire at him for all the shit he put Ford through. (Does Ford find it a bit charming to have Stan fight for him again like that after all these years? Yes) Ford's eventually has to calm him down because him just yelling at Bill isn't solving their current problem but that doesn't stop Stan from being the coldest host he can be.
Just. Fuck bro, make Stan fight for Ford again against his bullies. Make it a parallel to how Stan would get defending and protecting Ford from their Pa or bullies. Ugh, god, Stan would not be okay knowing what Bill did you Ford, I dont fucking believe it.

I'm really sorry for asking, I hope this isn't an intrusive question. You don't have to answer if you don't want to, but I've noticed you've toned down your burningcheese posts. Are you taking a break? I hope this ask doesn't come around as being demanding or intrusive. I just really miss seeing burningcheese since there's hardly anything on the tags anymore from what I've noticed. If you are taking a break, please don't feel pressured to answer this post. You deserve a break after everything that's happened
Have I? Doesn't really seem like that to me... But I guess I don't know? Feels like I've been posting and reblogging stuff about them like usual. I guess not? I've been posting a lot about the fankids recently, is that it? Those don't count as burningcheese posts? Haha
But yeah uh I'm sorry if I've given that impression. This ship is still infecting my brain all day every day dont worry haha. I guess i just. I haven't been doing well recently. Nothing to do with internet drama or anything I don't care about that. I've been facing a lot of genuine hardship irl. and i guess it's starting to show on here? Maybe? I'm not really sure. In any case i do apologize if it seems like I'm losing interest or anything like that. Promise I'm not. I'm always thinking about them lol they're a plague. They're a curse. Devsisters owes me reparations at this point. Or rent money for the space in my brain they've been squatting in. Tenant's rights don't exist in my mindscape, they're in big trouble
#I'll be honest an actual break may or may not be coming soon depending on how things go irl#i don't really want to talk about it but. things are bad. really bad#but i have a history of mentally/emotionally running away from my problems haha#which usually involves losing myself in writing or drawing. or video games. or whatever idk#something to help me pretend I'm not alive for a while#got a big backlog of burningcheese stories to write so maybe I'll end up doing those just to cope haha#no matter what burningcheese is my ride or die dont you worry about that#i appreciate your concern. i really do. it's over something silly like shipping but it actually means a lot to me in this trying time haha#i put on a happy silly front on here because i come here to have fun and be silly you know? even if i don't really feel like that irl#i don't want to burden strangers with my real life problems haha#but yeah I'm rambling I'm sorry. thank you for reaching out#as for the lack of content in tags yeah that's always sucked#unfortunately burningcheese never got the love and attention shadowvanilla and eternalberry got despite it being equally as deserving#straight ship + devsis kinda fumbled their chapters so it damaged interest (and ppl's view of BS as a character in general)#sometimes i think it's for the best just because it means we avoided the slop treatment#but... waaaaahhhhhh burningcheese peak and canon why doesn't everyone obsess over it like i do waaaaaahhhhhh#oh well. be the change you wish to see in the world. that's why i made this blog and my ao3 in the first place haha#so yeah again don't worry. got plenty of stories and headcanons and everything left to share#i ain't beat. but i sure am getting beat up haha

ur probably sick of seeing posts like these but i just want to sit here and muse about how, well, i enjoy tumblr #mytumblr not just because of all the obvious stuff like how it’s not run on an algorithm, and because it’s one of the only social media that i don’t have to jump through hoops to use and that isn’t phone-exclusive (for me)
but i think my favorite thing has to be the askblogs, and running one. which is weird, because if you asked me as little as 3 years ago what i loved most about tumblr, i’d probably say “uh, looking at owl house posts, i guess?”, it’s weird because i never actually planned to make one and created it on a whim based on a few random people’s tags, and even then it was made mostly as a joke. i just never thought about it before—i grew up with askblogs, an era of tumblr that was truly as magical as it was catastrophic (as all things that get vaguely popular), but i never thought about making one because: it’s a commitment, it seems like a lot, i’m inconsistent, how would i draw for it every single time, etc etc all that good stuff
but then i just made it. and fuck me is it the most fun thing ever. it doesn’t have to be consistent. it doesn’t have to be perfect, or polished, or anything really. it just has to be. to exist out there in the world and be open to messages. the most it has to be is loved by me and by u guys.
and that’s the thing! the best thing—i love involving u guys in my writing, pushing the characters in one direction and then the next, seeing where that takes us (because i don’t always know either, that’s what writing is all about babeyyy). i love that i don’t have to just post the most important plot beats one after the other and have the story be done there. i love that i get to weave the development through vaguely connected, sometimes relevant but sometimes completely random joke asks. that i don’t have to write a whole ass novel of build-up or draw everything as one long-running comic just to make my characters feel like they actually exist and react to the things around them, that they’re not just here to get from point a to b. and i love that you’re all part of it. the story seriously just wouldn’t be the way it is without all of you guys who are always so curious to ask something, or call a character out (depending on how much they need to be humbled COUGHHHHCOUGHHHHH)
so yeah, i’m just forever grateful for all of you and for the fact that tumblr allows things like these to happen. i have no idea what other site could possibly offer the same sort of experience, or anything similar, but i am just forever in love with the fact that it’s something you can do here. i wouldn’t trade it for anything. what a cool fucking thing to be able to do
#i suppose if tumblr ever truly kicks the bucket you guys are free to send me emails with questions to my ocs#we can still clutch.#crammerposting#i just love the format? medium? so much it feels perfect to me#i dont know what i’d do otherwise#a long as fuck one-big-narrative comic sounds exhausting and so does like…a fic series#theoretically you Can make them work in the way you want to but…idk….i really enjoy these lil distractions#of the characters getting to talk to you guys and not just thinking about their problems 24/7#and u guys finding misc stuff out about them and just having fun with them#it really gives room to breathe! it’s probably not impossible in comic/writing form but i think it’s the most feasible in askblog form#and obv running an askblog is also demanding and tiring. i am just one person with two hands fucked up health and limited time/energy#who is somewhat winging the story direction but that just adds to the fun#there have been months where i was so burnt out on my ocs i didnt even want to be reminded of their existsence#(that’s just a normal part of roleplaying as your characters and thinking about them for months on end#sometimes i wanna do other stuff toooo)#and things have been slow because of all of those factors#a year ago i thought we’d be way further in the story by now#but that’s ok :) that’s the thing i love about doing this. it’s completely freeform. there’s no schedule. no limit. no consistency#just me and yall and my characters who suck. and we all get to make fun of them for sucking#but yes even though things are slow and i’m sort of struggling to make a comeback. i still love all of it so much#i love that you guys are always there for it. that you wait so long and always offer the same amount of enthusiasm. you are all really#patient and lovely#i guess that’s another thing about tumblr. the communities you cultivate here are dare i say awesome👍

well hold on, if we define a character flaw as any limitation a character deals with, regardless of whether it's something Morally Wrong With Them or not, then Ford's paranoia counts as a character flaw since it does in fact negatively impact him and the people around him. Let me use better wording here: I will die on the hill that Ford's paranoia is not a moral failing.

Before I go to sleep I leave you all with this piece of advice: sometimes you don't actually have to answer big political questions, sometimes you can just say "I am not smart enough to know that, I just know the small things I do to help." Like you can often times completely avoid making a fool of yourself if you just say you don't know.
#simon says#to explain here and not in a reblog:#sometimes when you try to explain big picture solutions you're gonna sound dumb#you might not have done enough research#you might not have a rebuttal to a counter argument#you might not be articulate enough to explain why you think this#sometimes you gotta take a step back and give the simple solution. the one man solution#you do what you can to fight against the problem#you talk to people to help spread awareness and how to fight the bad problem#and you vote and invite others to vote for bigger steps towards solving the problem#like you can talk about theory and how you believe we need to do a huge drastic thing to solve and issue#but people will disagree and argue til you're blue in the face#they'll poke and prod until you mess up or lose your temper and use it against you#and you'll feel dumb and they'll learn nothing#sometimes the best thing to do is step away from the big picture and just say 'idk what the solution is I just know the things I can do“#sometimes you gotta admit you're not a scientist/expert and you can't answer that#i used this while talking with my Dad tonight#he brought up our climate crisis and space travel as a possible solution#and I said I think that's just addressing the symptom and not the cause and we need to care for our Earth now#and he asked me what solutions I think would fix it#and knowing my incredibly smart Dad who is articulate and ready to throw rebuttles at a moments notice to play devils advocate#and my past experience in struggling in this topic with him before#i just told him I didn't know. all i knew is the little things I can and do do to help#and that hopefully by spreading the word and habits and encouraging others to vote for those bigger solutions I could help make a change#but all I really could do is the little things I have control over#and the topic became much less stressful about the little things we have control over#like planting native plants and recycling and adopting habits that are healthier to our planet#which was 100% more preferable to if I tried to give a big solution. because I would reveal i didn't have all the knowledge needed to argue#and my articulation would make me sound like a stupid kid who only thinks they know what's best#so yeah I basically suggest that if you dont wanna feel like shit after debating someone just step away from the big picture for a moment

wish there was a mod like minecraft comes alive but more sims-y where i basically help manage a village and make sure the inhabitants are happy + have all their needs filled
#spacie spoinks#i know about minecolonies btw LOL. its a great mod but i wish it had more mca components yk (kissing villagers)#i was thinking about relearning java just so i can make mc mods lol#cuz i lowkey wanna make this (i am aware this is a large scale project let me dream a little) kind of like terraria also in that they need#to actually live in the village otherwise they'll wander off and try to find some other structure to call home (or build it themselves)#so you have to build them a simple house. and wandering villagers come to inhabit. you can also kiss villagers if you want lmao#and there's like. a block you can use and it shows the layout of your town. kind of like a merge of roamers‚ mca‚ and minecolonies#blah blah some kind of mechanic so that its more labor intensive the bigger your town gets#you have to create bigger farms or something so that the people dont starve LOL or at least have more avenues of gathering food#you should be able to send villagers to do tasks but they should also be able to have their own jobs. proabably thru a similar method#that regular minecraft does where you put the villager in front of the block and it assigns them the job. or you can click to assign#eventually they're able to run their own city without your direct input unless its adding a new building or something#maybe villagers have whims to be certain jobs that would be fun#so they'd gravitate towards certain blocks#(i dont know how hard this would be to code im just thinking aloud)#and there would also be other structures like cafes or steelsmiths and butchers and maybe even a town hall#and they'll be able to go to those places to get certain items. yk! like the sims they can just wander around! and do things!#it would make singleplayer feel a lot more alive i think#maybe they even come and talk to you about problems or disagreements#or to say ''you look cute today!'' lol like in cotl#and you could be given side quests you can choose to accept or not (like in cotl) and have the option of disowning your village if you#dont wanna keep up with it. again kind of like cotl#except less annoying b/c they should be able to feed themselves LOL#you just have to make sure there's enough food and someone will make it for them or they'll make it for themselves

really fucking sick and tired of people who really fucking love the eddie book jumping on people who don't like or are even remotely critical of it's posts and like crusading their opinions around from the top of their high horses and shoving it down our throats.
if you like the book, great! that's awesome! love that for you! i am genuinely glad that you were able to find good in it and enjoy it!!
but not everyone did, and not everyone is going to agree with you. so, instead of going on some grand crusade where you find every single post that includes anything even remotely negative or negative adjacent or even neutrally critical and spending ALL this time and effort trying to provide unwanted rebuttals to every single thing, maybe you should just stay in your lane and find people who DO like the book and chat about it with them.
because i can PROMISE YOU, none of us appreciate it when you come onto our posts and start accusing us of "hating on" the author or "being rude" about her and her work and RIDICULOUS shit like that.
being critical of something and pointing out it's flaws is NOT inherently hating on it. i, frankly, do not know where people got that notion, but it's not fucking true so can we fucking quit assuming it is? and, critiquing something is also NOT the same as saying this is shit and it sucks and the author is a piece of garbage. again, where the fuck that came from is beyond me. you can be critical of something and still enjoy it. as soooo many of you love to point out, it's not perfect, why should it be perfect? so D U H. of course that means criticism can and should arise???
also. hot take (by which i mean ice fucking cold because it's NOT a fucking hot take), but going around toting FALSE facts as part of your "defense" does not make you or your argument look good. you, like the author, should maybe do a basic fact check first. 🙃
tldr, if you like the book, that's genuinely great, but stay in your fucking lane and stop seeking out posts from people who didn't like it to start shit in the notes.
#flight of icarus#stranger things#this has happened to me and to so many of my friends and im fucking SICK of it#i didn't even hate the book either!! i thought it was just okay#and yet i STILL get all these book lovers jumping down my throat about things i say about the book#things that - HONESTLY are not even like that scathing!!!!!#like god damn all im asking for is a little BASIC effort from the author and they all think thats me asking for her head on a platter#its NOT#i have no problem with the author#she's whatever to me honestly just a vessel through which the book was given to us#ALSO she is some nebulous blob way outside my orbit. AS IN any critiques i have of her and her work are NOT direct assaults on her???#like i dont fucking KNOW her#im not saying any of this to her face#she is a published writer she should KNOW the risks she is taking when she publishes her writing#not everyone is going to like it! there are going to be people who are critical of it! there are going to be people who hate it!#critiques and pointing out mistakes and wishing for things to have been different is not a fucking direct attack#those things are actually pretty fucking common responses to ANYTHING#and a lot of times theyre actually meant as useful helpful things geared towards improvement and not something to tear someone down with#some people on the internet need to go touch grass and learn how to CRITICALLY THINK again#the world is not as black and white as you think#n e ways. rant over. if you stuck around through all of that kudos to you. i am just. at the end of my rope with this bullshit.

you know, i always find it really funny when dudebros complain about syndicate and odyssey being too "jokey" or not "taking its characters seriously" or whatever…
like, did y'all collectively sleep through "it's-a me, mario!", "i meant besides vaginas", ezio inventing the latte, bartolomeo's... just... *gestures vaguely* entire character, etc?
like, it's fine to have preferences of course, i myself prefer a more serious and grounded tone, but these are usually the same people who tout the ezio trilogy as "peak assassin's creed", call ac1 a glorified tech demo and hate on connor for being "too serious and boring", like? make it make sense!
#asscreed#ac syndicate#ac odyssey#dont get me wrong#i do have problems with syndicate and even more so with odyssey#but it's not the tone lol#honestly i think kassandra is the protagonist that's the most similar to ezio if you really think about it#but bc she's a woman she's suddenly 'overpowered' and 'unrealistic'#yall don't remember the insane things that ezio survives in revelations do you#speaking of which#been replaying the ezio games lately#and i have something to confess...... i really don't think ac2 is good#ac brotherhood was a BIG improvement#in terms of story pacing for one (none of those insane unmotivated time jumps... well aside from the strange montage at the end)#and the characters are a lot more fleshed out (probably bc there aren't like 20 of them)#and the handling of female characters is MUCH less egregious#maybe bc there's only really claudia and caterina left LOL#lucrezia is a little annoying i guess... but she gets a pass bc she's cesare's sister and really they're the same kind of crazy lol#and hey we actually get to see how dangerous sex work can be and how it's not just a way for sexy nuns to give inner peace to men#even cristina gets fleshed out!#and i like that we get so see ezio being a little bit of a selfish prick in her missions#and making bad decisions in interpersonal relationships#at least i THINK that's what we're supposed to take away from it... but who knows maybe it's just supposed to be a tragic love story...#i hope not.... i hope the player IS supposed to think that ezio's treatment of her is bad. otherwise.... :/#sorry for rambling#guess im just kinda surprised by how much i enjoyed brotherhood#it had been a long time since i last played it#also the modern day is really good!#that you can talk so much to everyone and also being able to read their emails and the mundane banter... idk i just think its neat :)

thanks! doing this idly has been teaching me a Lot about choreographing fight scenes in a comic, which hopefully i won't have to do something serious with any time soon haha. and what it's turned out for this AU is a bunch of people who are really desperate to never be hurt again get locked in an arms race to find a way to hurt other people that won't come around and get them eventually, which does justify the magic i think, but also it does push for the magic to also be completely brutal and the visual behavior of spirits and souls to be the same as, if not worse, than the regular body. tldr all the shit marik pulls in canon (especially the scarab hourglass) owns hard and i want in and also for it to be worse and more direct. i'm glad this has wider appeal than to just me lol. cheers!
#not art#ask#the author's thinly veiled obsession with the way meat acts#to be fair you Can attack spirits in canon ygo. marik does that so much#and that kinda is what shadow games are. but also thats too much rituals for me. im not about that#those are safeguards to leash the magic and they are cool to see and watch but i love giving toddlers no cost zettaflare#thats me leaving the wuxia sensibility i think. no more honor no more structure you have absolute power at the tip of ur finger#and technically using it costs you nothing. it just also doesn't solve any of your problems either. go wild#well. it is interesting when pretty much none of the cast is interested in like idk world domination and shit like that#(except for zorc but thats bc zorc is a literal toddler for real who doesn't understand the fact that things have to be made to exist)#giving characters a hammer when they want to make a cake is great i think. watch them try to make their cake with a damn hammer#but no yeah rituals are a safeguard but they're also a buffer to me. like idk its like. validating ur position to act cruelly#bc ur by the book abt it. and of course it is a lot prettier than yknow. butchering a soul bodily#if theres a soul i dont think we get to do remote automated warfare on it. the hammer doesnt get to be out of ur hand#lmao i did tell friend yumi that theres specific nutrients in this average big-3-copycat shounen manga AU that i crave#no longer ethical to harvest from real life manga that exist so i made up my own. welcome to my attic garden

@verpineshatterrifle your tags are literally so true and real!!! Wanted to post them because they're related to what I've been talking about with what makes someone aro or ace and how it is to live out being those things and because the exploring aspect of this is really underappreciated in fandom imo, both in the context of exploring the character and the character exploring themself. The nulls are such a great example of this because of their Situation, there's so much stuff they know about the world and so much they don't. The idea of them trying things out and it working or not working or working in an extra twisted way feels comfortable and likely. It's messy being anywhere on the aroace spectrum, especially when they live in a society that (I'm assuming) doesn't really know where to place those things
#honorary You Get It post#me when the characters core experiences affect who they are as people etc etc#adopting your interpretation of ordo#also everything you said about mereel... Yeah.#cause it does suck recognizing why you dont like to do relationships even if you've never felt drawn to them and you have#piles of evidence in the form of messy breakups and exes#its so easy to keep pushing yourself into more derogatory labels cause youre like every other aro person is like that for more#normal reasons than me... I just have Stupid Problems#it's going to be okay mereel 🤝 you're gonna be okay#youre not uniquely unethical for this. other stuff though maybe lmao#obsessed with ace and aro characters who don't know what those labels are#both in the finding out and finding peace and knowing and not caring directions#equally interesting#how tf did I manage to put the point of the post in the tags#txt#repcomm#side note star wars anthropology moment there could be a really interesting conversation abt this and mandalorian culture's#Marry With Passion thing#wonder if any of the nulls struggle with squaring mandalorian family identity and what they feel they do and dont want#talking more in the context of clan skirata and what they feel they owe not so much mando culture as a whole#final thought I think I def lean towards plain aro mereel but I love your understanding of how he approaches sex and why he might still#do so even when ace on a purely physical/mental stimulation basis#like Yes Of Course
