honestly actually ik the "ride or die, you can have complex feelings about these people who harmed you but i HATE them, you're never wrong" type of friendship is super common n praised n i even can understand why that form of unconditional "love" is appealing, but i genuinely think its the most suffocating form of friendship ive ever experienced
#bunny rambles#mostly bc the only way i can cope with what ive experienced is knowing i am flawed too#knowing many of these ppl who did terrible things to me are. ppl. not random monsters but ppl like me. who fucked up severely#i hold a lot of nuance and rarely talk to ppl ab my feelings bc anyone doing hard line like This Is A Bad Person activates me#even my therapist tried doing that and i had to stop our session right then cause i started sobbing ab the fact ik they arent bad ppl#and her doing that derails from my feelings and pain to them Being Bad and I don't need them to Be Bad to feel my hurt#if anything focusing on morality scares me away n makes me hide but thats also bc ive been experiencing shit since i was [prepubescent age]#so I've been having to live with this shit way longer than i was even in therapy and idk. i think if this stuff only happened starting past#the age of 15 i would be more capable of the b&w morality judgements required for this type of friendship#but I'm really honestly glad to know ppl who like. Dont wanna engage in that b&w morality for every single topic so i can actually talk ab#my feelings w/o feeling suffocated. and btw the suffocating prt to me is the pity and victimization as well. i hte experiencing that part#i had a few session with my therapist (b4 the other anecdote) talking ab how i feel suffocated when pitied and treated As a Victim[tm] even#tho that is language that can be applied to me bc everyone tries to apply that same morality but where i COULDNT have done anything wrong#(n then i feel suffocated n pressure to only say the ways they harmed me or never speak on that so they arent made into a Monster)#(i genuinely do wish the best even for ppl who have done the worst to me. dont be rude)#ANYWAYYYYYYYYYYY rambles and grumbles#(also i bring up the age of trauma in relevance to this not as a comparison but as a note on Why i am the way i am bc ik tht hving to like.#beocme a person w/ my childhood selves all basically being various gaping wounds made me a lot more tender when i started actually being#involved in my life and its been a struggle still w myself sometimes but genuinely remembering i and everyone whos harmed me are all just.#ppl Really helped me be able to like. live with this. idk. im rambling)

i fear i cannot mentally or emotionally handle being conscious much longer so im gonna take a melatonin and hope to god it works enough to make me pass out by 8:30 tbh
#i. have gone through the full spectrum of human emotions today methinks (not including joy or happiness or any of the like.. naturally)#i am so exhausted and feeling deeply deeply fucking hopeless#ive spent so much of my life feeling miserable and hopeless but holy fucking shit none of that even remotely came close to the amount#of sheer hopelessness and despair that im feeling today#gneuinely. at a loss for ways to make myself or anyone else feel better#like. well at least we're alive! bitch i dont think i want to be anymore. and furthermore for a LOT of people NOT FOR MUCH LONGER probably#at least we have friends/family/community! yes and that means i have that many more people to be absolutely terrified for on top of myself#we've been through this once we can do it again! I WANT MY LIFE TO BE ABOUT MORE THAN JUST GETTING THROUGH#JESUS CHRIST LIKE#by the time the next election comes i will be 27#meaning i will have spent the majority of my teens AND 20s fearing this stupid fucking man and his stupid fucking morally bankrupt follower#im so sick#im so tired#i have to stay alive but for what??? for climate change to make everything exponentially worse in the next 10-15 years??#for society and humanity as we know it to AT the very LEAST begin to collapse in front of my very eyes??#anyway.#like... i just...#thank god i have ppl in my life rn who care about me bc they are essentially singlehandedly keeping me alive at this point#at the end of all of it even though i can do this song and dance all day and be like "whats the point of living? why shouldnt i k myself#and the answer is that the people i love would be sad. the people i love love me too and they would never be the same.#and especially with how much a lot of them have done for me. i owe it to them to at least Try to give myself the best shot i can#us politics#election 2024#kamala harris#2024 election#uspol

Thinks abt how the one person in my family I really relate to and respect settled in her marriage and later wakes up in a cold sweat
#'i mean he's not emotional and open and super loving but he works hard and can provide and i decided that was worth it'#good god.#im really glad that im no longer married to. well. the idea of marriage lol#and a home n kids#like it would be nice if i found my dream person#but i simply cannot afford to settle#my soul cannot handle settling for anything less than my dreams and genuinely if im alone forever than so be it#i can give myself everything i want!#i just could never forgive myself if i settled and god forbid had kids w someone i wasnt 100% sure of#i will not recreate the family i grew up in.#if i do have kids i want them to know their parents are madly in love and happy#and the idea of this dream person is so Fun but also it can just be a dream yk#ive learned a lot thru this and thru talking w more adults abt heartbreak etc and just.#wow.#so many ppl settle cos they're scared of being alone or see it as a failure#and i just cant do that. id rather be single forever than settle i really would#the way ppl live is so fascinating idk#i 💗 old women#my real dream is to be a cool old woman lmao#kdjfhshdhfkglahfk#like im a man now but idk if i'll be an old man its hard to explain

can i be honest this shit's so bad it's got me posting in r/bpd to feel for five seconds like other people GET it and i don't have to explain myself
#new bpd symptom: the only people who understand what the hell i'm talking about are the people on that damn subreddit!#sorry i know i've been talking about this a lot lately but it really has been weighing on me VERYYYY heavily#because. on the one hand desire to have a label so that i don't feel like I'M the one who fucked up anymore. so i can know ok i couldn't#have changed this it's not my fault. but on the one hand terrible terrible terrible fear that this is something inherently fucked up in my#brain that simply won't have an easy fix. and that i will have to continue living with for much longer than i hoped.#anyway i'm not trying to armchair diagnose with pop psychology or anything i'm just. pretty certain at this point that. if labels mattered#at all. which they sometimes do to ME! then like. that label would be bpd.#& i have only become more certain while spending time in a community where everyone seems to get it like no one ever has#i don't know it's futile bcs i don't have a therapist and ive been ghosted by like 10 of them now so whatever. i have to do this mental#inquiry by MYSELF#whateverrrr. no more need to talk about this. u all saw the poem :/#hello world

my depression is getting really really bad. like it’s been bad before but this is like… consistently really bad. like a long unending stretch for several weeks (and tbh months) now. to the point where no inoculation actually sticks (and im isolating myself from most of my inoculations anyway and feel unable to stop doing it even though i know it’s self destructive). im either helplessly unbearably miserable or numbing out on video games. i just don’t feel like it’s going to get better for me and i KNOW that is factually untrue but the feeling is louder than the knowledge and it’s just utterly immobilizing. ive been sinking in quicksand for 2 years.
#purrs#longer than that too ofc but i think ever since i moved to campus in 2021 and shit started hitting the fan my life just started snowballing#and picked up speed majorly when i moved back home and ive been stuck in this horrible limbo ever since. like im scaring myself with how#deeply profoundly unhappy and unwell i am. i am just detached and scattered and bewildered by everything. and the only way to break free is#to fight it but i don’t even have the strength. like in order to fight it i have to have the strength and it s exactly the thing that is#being stolen from me. and i work really really hard to suppress it when im around people so no one can tell but on the inside im being eaten#alive and every day that goes on the pain gets harder to bear except im numb most of the time so i can’t tell except for when i can#one of the things that makes me saddest is ive pushed everyone away either by ghosting them or scaring them. when what i want and need the#most is love and comfort. but then when i get it it isn’t enough. idk. im not explaining it well i just feel like. horrible. unbearably#i think i need to go on meds like i truly cannot go on like this not even in a s*i cidal way it’s like i just can’t take living like this#delete later#i know im causing the people who love me pain by being unable to accept that they do love me and that’s the worst fucking part. is hurting#people by being like this. scaring people by being like this. and being so disconnected from myself#and feeling completely and utterly beyond help like nothing ive tried has fixed it but also there are a lot of things i haven’t tried but i#feel so terrible or my freedom is limited so i can’t. idk.#also the crushing knowledge / sense that i have lost the most precious important years of my life both bc of the lockdown and bc of mental#illness lol. except that’s not true bc of all the stuff abt how your best years are always ahead of you and you can make them. but it doesnt#feel like it for me and then i beat myself up bc my job is literally to exude that belief and help other ppl feel it and i increasingly cant#i remember in high school having the thought that one day i could be depressed and being conscious that i wasn’t and now i look back on that#and am like… how. and will i ever not be. i don’t think so. it just feels unending

“The Barbie Movie is anti-men!”
No. The Barbie movie was just not made for u s. I honestly didn’t find the movie all that relatable outside of Allan but it’s still a GOOD movie! I wasn’t bored during it, it was funny, the music was good, it’s thematically a great movie. I was just not the target audience and that’s okay!! Seeing my 49 year old mother crying at the end of the movie was all I needed for the movie to make me happy, knowing that it touched my mother in a way that other movies don’t often do. And that’s okay :)
Barbie is a movie for anyone who has lived the female experience, especially older women like my own mother who grew up playing with Barbie. That doesn’t mean that you can’t relate to it just. As a human being, and I have lived a female experience briefly in my life but I didn’t relate to the movie. And that’s okay! If you relate to this movie fucking awesome!!! I’m so glad that there’s a movie that means a lot to you :) /gen
I’m just beefing with the other men on the internet who didn’t relate to it like me, yet they insist it’s a bad or “anti-men” movie when it’s clearly not???
Also shoutout to Allan he was literally made in a lab for the transgenders
Only critique? I wish it was more anti capitalist and anarchist but that was never really the point so I get it I will wallow in my corner praying for a progressive movie to arrive that fulfills my genderfuck anarchy goals. ( Idk maybe I’ll write something to fulfill my own dreams ❤️❤️ )
#aaronymous ramblings#barbie#barbie movie#good movie!#i just kinda felt nothing at the end#i was expecting to have the same experience as all the transmascs online who literally cried during it but like#manifested to be cis so hard that i had a cis reaction slash jay#im all for transmascs sharing their experiences of their time as women presenting because it adds a lot of insight#im just like idk if i can do that like ive lived as a woman longer than a man but i guess im like idk#little disappointed i didnt relate to it i feel like im missing out#good movie tho the filming and the storytelling and the themeing and the music and the cinematography are masterful#like the critique that its too girlboss feminism is wrong because dude. thats literally what its critiquing but it is a little too#capitalist for my tastes#its in this weird gray area but its still awesome???#barbie choosing to be human was awesome tho#barbie spoilers#barbie movie spoilers

#uggghhhhhhhhhhhh#this is the first time i think in my whole life that ive lived alone#had a job that didnt make me wear out my social battery#or compromise my physical health#and have been financially stable enough to afford necessities without worrying#which is all amazing#and means that ive actually had the opportunity to decide hey#im fucking dying#everything has been insane and shitty and traumatic for months#so im going to just. do nothing. until i can stand to even think about interacting with people or doing basic household tasks without#curling into a ball#and it took a lot longer than i thought it would#its been i think....5 weeks?#of leaving the house only when i have to for groceries and only doing the absolute bare minimum to keep my living area functional#going back to coping with headphones on when i go outside like i used to and kind of forget why i stopped doing it#and in general just. spending my time rewatching my old favourite series and shows and manga and books#i can count on one hand the number of times ive socialized with a friend outside my house#and holy fuck i needed this#i needed this years ago i think#it took 5 weeks before i could even think about willingly being out in public with strangers and not doing everything i can to avoid it#my house is a mess and i havent unpacked and my yard is overgrown#but im finally starting to look at tasks around the house without a crippling sense of dread anymore#and can sometimes just. do em. without having to suppress massive anxiety and exhaustion and stress and burnout to get through it#i was kinda relying on blind faith that i was doing the right thing in giving myself permission to just not keep up on my life#and that it wouldnt just spiral into depression lol#and its actually paying off#thank fuck#its probably 'recovering from years of burnout' in technical terms but yknow what#i can now make myself food without waiting till im literally having hunger pangs or until i nearly lose my balance walking the dog#and cleaned up a bit! and hung up some of my wall shelves!

I keep thinking of how Watcher 2 goes uh, Cipher, there were no ghosts in the Dark Temple, which genuinely baffled both me and Eight, because she's completely sincere about it. Like you don't believe in ghosts but you believe in guys who shoot lightning and lift things with their minds...? What do you think made those people go insane then, a gas leak?
It's actually pretty typical within SWTOR for Imperials not to question superstitious matters or anything related to the Force either out of purposeful lack of knowledge, unwillingness to believe in it given how technologically advanced the Empire is and so they defer to science, or plain fear of the unknown and everything associated with the Force, but it's always a bit of an interesting shock seeing where particular officers lines lie about it. In Watcher 2's case, spirits do not exist. Regardless of the walking specter who made your personnel be in pain for no reason a few hours prior, cough.
Eight's the rare example of an Imperial who is immediately ready to accept and understand these outlying forces so he definitely believed there were spirits and other things at work, but more than that, I headcanon that Jadus sent him into the Dark Temple alone not just as a test of skill, but to test if their Force bond had manifested and would protect him from its malicious influences. In which case, it absolutely did and the agent emerges unscathed from the Temple of babbling soldiers. This also minorly awakens Eight's potential to see the world through Jadus' eyes, and so he has proof of the mysticism that other Imps refuse to accept-- another point that most likely makes investigative branches like the IRS looked down upon.
In other words, though he can't affect such things and is more Force-blind than Theron, Eight has become a medium of sorts because of his powerful connection to Jadus that leaves a mark on his being and has the willingness to quite literally open his mind to these forces. This makes him more attuned to odd situations that involve the Dark Side while retaining a self that is utterly mundane, so he acts as a sort of middle-man between the world of Sith and Imperials: the perfect union of the force and force-blind.
In the basic class story, it hasn't manifested fully but by the time of KOTFE/ET, it takes a dramatic spike in power because of Valkorion's influence and the extreme growth he and Jadus forced on each other in order to win that final battle. This is explained in-game as Valkorion leaving the ability to use the Force or amplifying it after the expacs, but Eight will never have the ability to use it, and I have no intention of ridding him of being normal despite all the ways he isn't. However, Eight and Jadus pull out all the stops to defeat the former Emperor and this nearly kills the former-- he collapses immediately after the two Sith have a psychic battle in his head and his vitals flatline, to which Lana and Theron panic. Then, Jadus himself finally appears in the flesh and whisks his Hand away. The two Alliance directors are unable to stop him, weak as they are by the battle, and no sign is found of either Eight or Jadus when the dust clears.
Eight is found weeks later in a hidden facility with no recollection of what happened prior, though he's purposefully vague about his "savior", and what happened between them. When Lana touches him, she feels a shock-- and realizes it's Eight, who she feels all the more keenly through the Force. He realizes this too, and those eyes that bore into her now look past her vestige into the depths of her soul. It feels like someone else is there. She cuts off the temporary connection immediately, the sense of wrongness remaining.
Eight still isn't force-sensitive. Nothing registers even when they test him.
And yet, no one can explain how he sees things he shouldn't, and how it's even possible for him to connect with others in this way. They leave it as another mystery surrounding the agent with no name.
#swtor#ooc#jadorre#idk what this is i had a lot of story beat thoughts i needed to write down somewhere#but more than that ive been ruminating on writing the final Valk fight forever and what it means for Eight and Jadus#and exactly how it changes Eight#as well as trying to figure out just what their bond does to him#i like to call the potential for a force blind user to become opened to the force as 'force latency'#bc regardless of whether they can use it it DOES flow through every living thing. there's ways to acclimate yourself to it#i also don't believe you need to have the force to have the mental ability to resist or understand it#all minds are incredibly powerful complicated things and the realm of the mind only partially shares itself with the force#the force i think just makes it more liable to express itself in reality#babbling aside I really like the word medium for eight as the receptacle to help jadus feel ordinary things he no longer can as a result of#being too powerful#while learning himself how to take this mass of sheer will into his own body without being broken in turn#AND i have an entire subplot about Jadus fucking around with eight's force latency using some. unpleasant things#kick me to do it

I am making a rough world map for the staliens home planet atm and it's been a lot of me going wee yay yippee :D until the mountains hit
#rat rambles#oc posting#eternal gales#Ive been doing a lot better than the last time I tried doing this tho!#starting with tectonic plates rly does do wonders#I mostly wanted to go for a planet with two main strips where most of the landmasses are streched out connected by one of the poles#in my minds eye most of the longer strip still are fairly well connected from a societal standpoint with most of the broken apart#landmasses in the area still being close enough that oversea travel isnt particularly arguous and the seas are potentially shallow enough#that some of the deep underground cave systems this planet have are still fairly in tact if not a bit flooded#the cave systems are of course doomed to be the most bullshit part of my worldbuilding but shhhh lets pretend#now the continent that the main cast live on isn't part of that main land chain but the base of it is close enough to one of the poles that#its possible that one could travel from one pole to the other and then to that continent while traving mostly by land#itd be incredibly ill advised but you sure could theoretically do it#theres also some miscellaneous islands but Im going to be mostly ignoring them for now#mostly because I dont think the exposed energy veins that staliens need to be created would be present there#so while theoretically staliens could sail to those places it's probably be impossible to set up shop there long term#unless the herd in question has like a massive oceanic based migration cycle going on with a fairly large intake population#basically an important element of a herds migration cycle is being around when spawning grounds are active#so the longer the migration cycle the more sub herds the herd will typically have#either that or multiple seperate herds will use similar or the same cycle#so typically migration cycles are based in relatively small and hospitable radiuses with two or more herds/sub herds per region#as Ive mentioned in the past staliens tend to develop quite differently based on their environment during development#which is how these sorts of arrangements work out as the different groups tend to be specialized for different things#so staliens born in hotter environments will generally be specialized to thrive in said environments#this is a big part of the reason why most societies generally dont fight over territory often as its borderline necessary to share#migration maps in order to maintain stable migration cycles and population sizes#staliens are some of the largest comsumers of energy in most ecosystems and as such when theyre not around most of that overflow goes#into spawning more staliens which is in fact usually how these overlapping herds form but even if the original herd did have those guys#wait to be picked up and assimilated into the main herd then the same thing would happen in the region next time they left#so eventually the herd will have to either break apart into sub herds or just let new herds form to manage those spots when theyre gone

I wish I had like...two or three days off from work...my two days off for Christmas Eve and Christmas didn't even really count because there was a lot of travelling and going here and there for me and it didn't feel like Christmas.
I'm just so tired and exhausted.
I didn't go to church today because when my alarms went off I just couldn't get myself out of bed. So I ended up sleeping for 10 hrs. That's the most sleep I've had in weeks. My face hurts and I'm congested though..
I just want a chance to do absolutely nothing and rest. I haven't been able to rest at all this month and won't for the foreseeable future given my schedule. My body is so exhausted and it hurts.
#my post#i slept so hard i drooled#i think i slept a little longer than i shouldve but man...i really needed it#this time of the year is so tough for me#and ive hardly spent any time with my mom#and my mom and siblings are living in a very difficult situation right now so...i feel bad for not having the opportunity to see them a lot#:/#in reality i probably need a week off to rest#but i also need money to live

#listen i know im stressed. i know its bc of school and the deadlines coming close bc the semester is ending etcetc.#that is all fine. i genuinely feel. okay.#the problem is. unfortunately the 'im going to kms' has become a reflex response to stress.#i cant say theyre intrusive thoughts no matter how much i want to believe that.#it would be. acceptable if they just kept being thoughts. ive been fucked for at least 4 years straight now so i can. handle. it#but :) now theyre physically impacting my body again. yay.#ive had tics (likely bc of stress) before. like a lot. and thats fine.#but these. arent that? i think? ive not been consistently ticcing for at least 2 years now i thinkk and these.#yeagh these arent tics. they are actual reflexes.#which sucks because theyre not physically harmfull aka theyre 'not bad enough' to hit the 'WTF ARE YOU DOING.' sensors.#so im just. pointing a finger gun against my temple or into my mouth by the slightest notion of uncomfyness.#and it sucks to say that. im being really brave for being open about this because. its scary.#sillyposting#its just awful to be struggling like this again.#and i know. it will be better in literally a month. i know im not doing the worst ive ever been.#but it just constantly feels like a pit ill never get out of.#ok.#im doing fine. i'll survive it like i always have.#you just think things would get better the longer you live with something.#and i know that going to the doctor isnt going to get me anything prescribed. for good reason maybe idk#i know my main point is stress from school. but what do you want me to do? quit school?? the main thing that gets me out of the house?#do i need to do even less for school than i already do? its not like im putting in 60hours a week. im barely making 10.#hm.#you know.#ok back to the struggles i guess. yay#noo ok. im fine. i am good. /gen.

I gotta confess it is so much more fun talking to Sal as if he is a separate person like he wants and not a member of the system. He's super creative like. Its just fun.

He said it was confusing and he liked it but it took him a#couple watches to know what was going on.#he actually didnt know what season he had seen (other than it definitely wasnt the first one lol) so i read through the ep titles until#he reconized them. he stilll didnt reconize them really but like half way through the last season (I went out of order) he was like#“this sounds sorta right. there was a lot of space fighting and stuff”#he had to think about it for a minute because i guess he just hadnt consider that that was the end#he was relieved to hear that theres specials and stuff after#but maybe hes lying 0-0 thats always interesting !!!!#syst
