#but thats LONG TERM memory

[momo-de-avis]

Every single week, without fail, I lose an object. It's always an object that I place on a very specific place every single time, but then one time I decide to put it away somewhere else. I NEVER remember where that is. The one thing I hate about myself, and I do mean deeply and profoudnly hate, is how fucking shitty my memory is. I have gotten late to work because I picked up my keys on the way out, but then quickly set them down somewhere, but because I picked them up it was enough for my brain to register as "you have your keys" and then I couldn't find them anywhere for 30 minutes. I once tore the house apart, literally throwing drawers open and looking under the bed in despair, because I hung my purse on the mirror instead of the coat-rack behind the door, and I could not find it. This shit happens every week. Last week it was a wallet I just found crushed between two books, and today it's a recipe book. Next week it will be something else.

"You should try--" nothing works. It got so bad at one point I was literally medicated against my will, and it did shit. Every single technique known to man, from every ADHD online guru to Improve Your Memory gurus you can think of, everything failed. It's just a fucked up thing about my brain I have to live with.

Phobias aren’t funny. How would you like it if someone made fun of your phobia?

so a non-welcome home related ask and i'm sorry if you already answered this before, but what got you into dragons? i'm slowly stalking through your tumblr and i can't help but admire how beautifully and effortlessly you draw the scaley fuckers (/pos) ✨

i've actually never gotten this question, so this is a delight! allow me to Overshare about this

i became interested in dragons at an early age - like, kindergarten / 1st grade age. i don't remember exactly how it started, but i think it was my fascination with dinosaurs, oddly enough? i've loved those guys since some of my earliest memories. it wasn't a big leap from "giant 'lizards' from our past" to 'even bigger mythological 'lizards' from always". the Hobbit and the first Temeraire (im trying to get my hands on the full series now actually) were read to me at this young age too, and the only parts i remember are the big dragon scenes lmao

i do know the ball Really got rolling with the first How To Train Your Dragon movie, which i saw in theaters in 2nd grade. INSTANT obsession with dragons. i'll never forget how it felt to see Toothless for the first time. but in general, i couldn't get enough of em. i made my own dragon manual, i got the Dragonology books, it was the whole enchilada!

then in 5th grade, i stumbled upon the newly released Wings Of Fire: The Dragonet Prophecy book! immediately fell in love with it. and its what pushed me to start actively pursuing art! and also what pushed me into my first online space: ~Deviantart~. i saw all of the amazing art of my favorite dragons and wanted in on it. i can actually pinpoint the main person who's art i loved and found inspiration in: someone named Liighty! i don't remember their user, it's probably changed in the many years since. i loved their stuff and wanted nothing more than to be able to draw like them

long story short, i've been in love with dragons for the majority of my life. HTTYD and WOF have been my biggest inspirations and fuel to the fire, and my first delve into the internet pushed me to start drawing dragons (specifically wof) like my life depended on it. i haven't looked back since!

today I realised I'm at times entering survival mode and I absolutely hate it

over the last half a week I've thought about quitting this job twice a day. yesterday during my break I even searched for different jobs.

I'm low on spoons, haven't had much time or energy to write things for whumptober, the last few days my mental health has been getting worse

it absolutely sucks

I know I complain a lot abt sky and that's bc it's becoming a terrible game run by a worse company but it's important that anyone reading those posts knows i do really care abt sky. It has so so much potential and I want to love it again but I can't excuse tgc for the things they've done and keep doing. If they make a permanent change for the better I'll be right back to playing sky but as it stands I just. Can't

Rebloging this because the last time I saw this was on pinterest for some reason. Its a wonderful thing that everyone should have at least seen once. 10/10 would look for it again in a few months

Are fedoras really that bad?

Going from Ancillary Sword into August Kitko and the Mechs from Space is such like... whiplash to my brain. Ancillary Sword was challenging to read in a way I wasn't expecting but man was it rich as hell, the depth of the worlds and characters in that book are insane. Meanwhile reading AKatMfS is like... the premise is so cool and seems right up my alley but something about the writing is just not gelling with me for whatever reason. I want to get through this book so badly because I am interested but like... part of me is just wondering is this it?? Is this all there is to it?

Reached a point in not trusting my memory by taking a picture of where I put my bank card

For 8 out of the 12 years we've been together, I have been embarrassed by a memory of talking about my now-fiance and I making ravioli, when he suddenly commented that it wasn't him, that it must have been with an ex. I have a really good memory, he does not. But I was so embarrassed by that idea that I believed him and left the whole thing in limbo. Whenever we talked about memories getting mixed up, one of us would nod knowingly and cite the ravioli incident.

Tonight, while going through old photos, I have found documentation of he and I making ravioli.

Our world will never be the same.

I thought of a banger anhane fic idea at 1am yesterday and immediately passed out and now I’m only left with the memory that I came up with a banger fic idea but don’t remember what it actually was
