The painting of Alvin the Terrible and his son but instead it's Thingol-with the same horrified, haunting eyes-holding Lùthien after she dies of grief in Doriath.

I’ve been watching the pitt and it’s really good (I love a good medical drama) but the latest ep had a guy with a post tonsillectomy bleed and it reminded me of my post tonsillectomy bleed and how I Iiterally almost died choking on my own blood and now I feel really… wiggly

Plushie Tri!!!

Look at her! Love her! Squish her little face!

I can sew a little. It's not a talent that comes up often, nor am I overall great at it, but I enjoy it from time to time. Especially when I get truly inspired.

And this is the result of that inspiration, plus 2 days of hand stitching while binge watching One Piece (currently on ep. 636 😁)

The Cost of Inaction: A Moral Imperative to Speak and Act

Throughout history, individuals and societies have faced moments when moral choices demanded action. Photo by Sora Shimazaki on Pexels.com In these moments, the cost of inaction often proves far greater than the perceived risks of speaking out or taking a stand. Whether in the face of oppression, injustice, or ethical decay, failing to act creates a vacuum where suffering festers, wrongdoing…

ok so i wanted to read your big powerpoint. unfortunately my gogle drive couldnt open a file of such magnitude. the advice gogle slides gave me was to literally "try opening a smaller file". so i downloaded the bible (the komahina one, not the christianity one) onto my laptop. Now you owe me 32.60 $USD (thats 20 cents per every megabyte of my laptop storage that nagito and hajime ate up). i don't make the rules. also i wanted to print the powerpoint out onto paper, but as it turns out i dont have a printer. that means you also owe me a printer.

komahina bible cost me (literal) blood sweat tears and several hours of sleep to create and now you demand i pay you to read my scripture

if you are 1) currently in a university where your student healthcare covers hormone therapy, and 2) in a good financial, emotional, and social position to start hormone therapy, i would recommend pursuing it. because in my experience, it's a huge pain in the ass to get an endocrinologist once you're on your own

Hey am I missing something or is this card useless? It's just a 1/2 that draws you a single card when you play it, and it only looks at the top 4 so it has a good chance to miss unless your deck has like 20 noncreature spells. The offspring is really expensive too. Why pay 6 mana to draw 2 cards? Getting a 2-mana 1/2 in a spells deck isn't worth much, not without prowess or something. I'd rather have an unplayably bad rare than a broken one any day, but I'm just confused, it's not even a unique or complex effect. Did they accidentally swap the rarities of this and some common?

Excerpt’s from Gabor Maté’s ‘When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress,’ pages 1-43.

- “There is no true responsibility without awareness.” pg 9

- “Shame is the deepest of the “negative emotions,” a feeling we will do almost anything to avoid. Unfortunately, our abiding fear of shame impairs our ability to see reality.” pg 12.

- “The blurring of psychological boundaries during childhood becomes a significant source of future physiological stress in the adult. There are ongoing negative effects on the body’s hormonal and immune systems, since people with indistinct personal boundaries live with stress; it is a permanent part of their daily experience to be encroached upon by others. However, that is a reality they have learned to exclude from direct awareness.” pg 19

- “For those habituated to high levels of internal stress since early childhood, it is the absence of stress that creates unease, evoking boredom and a sense of meaninglessness.” pg 28

- “Stress consists of the internal alterations--visible or not--that occur when the organism perceives a threat to its existence or well-being.” pg 28

- “The research literature has identified three factors that universally lead to stress: uncertainty, the lack of information and the loss of control.” pg 34

- “Emotional repression--in most cases [is] expressed as niceness.” pg 43

- “In people with a weak sense of self, there is often an unhealthy fusion with others.” pg 43
