#every night without sleep

[duckysprouts]

if you were at your worst, if you’re a villain or a screwup or whatever, there is a goth man dressed as a giant bat who keeps coming after you, bothering you. he sabotages your journey of self destruction over and over. ur ready to give up but he won’t let you. you think, today he won’t come. today he will give up on me too. he never does.

my favourite thing about sharing a bed with my girlfriend is when she’s asleep but im wide awake i get to admire her little quirks and one of my favourite things she does is when she rolls over to me with full force and places her arm over me like a little spider and uses all her tired energy to pull me into her and then she just softly sighs and falls back to a deep sleep

Uyku: Sağlığımız İçin Hayati Öneme Sahip Bir Aktivite

Uyku, insan yaşamının önemli bir parçasıdır. Gün içinde yaşadığımız stres, yorgunluk ve zihinsel aktivitelerden sonra dinlenmek için uyku ihtiyacı duyarız. Ancak uyku, sadece dinlenme değil aynı zamanda sağlığımızın korunması ve gelişmesi için hayati bir öneme sahiptir. Bu makalede, uyku sürecinin önemini ve uyku eksikliğinin potansiyel etkilerini inceleyeceğiz.

Uyku Süreci: Uyku, karmaşık bir süreç olup beynin ve vücudun dinlenme ve yenilenme için ihtiyaç duyduğu bir dönemdir. Genellikle REM (Rapid Eye Movement - Hızlı Göz Hareketi) ve non-REM aşamaları olarak ikiye ayrılır. Non-REM uyku aşamaları, derin uyku ve hafif uyku aşamalarını içerirken, REM uyku aşaması ise rüya görme sürecinin gerçekleştiği aşamadır. Uyku döngüleri boyunca bu aşamalar tekrarlanır ve vücut dinlenir, hücre yenilenmesi gerçekleşir, bellek güçlenir ve bağışıklık sistemi güçlenir.

Uyku Eksikliği ve Potansiyel Etkileri: Uyku eksikliği, modern yaşamın yaygın bir sorunudur ve birçok insan düzensiz uyku alışkanlıklarıyla karşı karşıyadır. Uyku eksikliğinin potansiyel etkileri ciddi sağlık sorunlarına yol açabilir. Uzun vadede, uyku eksikliği obezite, diyabet, kalp hastalıkları, depresyon ve anksiyete gibi hastalıkların riskini artırabilir. Ayrıca, konsantrasyon eksikliği, hafıza sorunları, düşük enerji seviyeleri ve genel yaşam kalitesinde azalma gibi kısa vadeli etkileri de vardır.

Uyku Kalitesini İyileştirmek için Öneriler: Sağlıklı bir uyku rutini oluşturmak ve uyku kalitesini artırmak için bazı öneriler aşağıda sıralanmıştır:

Düzenli bir uyku programı oluşturun ve uyandığınız ve yattığınız saatlere sadık kalın.

Uyku ortamınızı rahat ve sessiz hale getirin. Kötü aydınlatma, gürültü veya yatak kalitesi uyku kalitesini olumsuz etkileyebilir.

Uyarıcı maddelerden kaçının. Kafein, alkol ve nikotin uyku kalitesini düşürebilir.

Fiziksel aktivite yapın. Düzenli egzersiz, uyku düzenini ve kalitesini iyileştirebilir.

Rahatlama tekniklerini kullanın. Sıcak bir banyo, derin nefes alma egzersizleri veya meditasyon gibi yöntemler uyku öncesinde rahatlamanıza yardımcı olabilir.

Yatak odasında elektronik cihazları kullanmayın. Ekranlardan yayılan mavi ışık, uyku hormonu melatonin salgısını engelleyebilir.

Sonuç olarak: Uyku, sağlığımız için hayati bir öneme sahip olan bir aktivitedir. Uyku eksikliği, genel sağlık durumumuzu etkileyebilir ve yaşam kalitemizi düşürebilir. Bu nedenle, düzenli bir uyku rutini oluşturmak ve uyku kalitesini iyileştirmek için gerekli önlemleri almak önemlidir. Sağlıklı bir yaşam sürdürebilmek için uyku ihtiyaçlarımıza özen göstermeliyiz.

Another link to this post. Meet the parents style.

So, Danny and Jason have been fake dating for a while now, and ended up marrying each other solely for tax benefits. Also, they got cool ass fucking friendship rings that they just couldn't not wear everywhere and being married is convenient so...

Anywho, so Jason has met Danny's parents but Danny hasn't met Jason's parents. Danny knows that he has some ties with the vigilantee scene due to being a Crime Lord-he still doesn't know what to think of his parents connecting the dots immediately when they only met him once while it took him more than that while living with the guy.

He thinks Jason may have been an ex-vigilantee at some point before turning to crime.

Then Danny gets blinded by rich people aura when he finds out that his bestfriend is the long thought dead child of Bruce Wayne. Frankly, he's insulted.

You mean to tell him that his could've been buying ice cream from that high class place all this time!? He shook (literally he grabbed and shook him) that point into Jason, he doesn't care that Jason never told him he was rich but he could've at least bought some high class ice cream once in a while.

Jason who was busy solidifying his power as a crime lord, avoiding his family and making sure not to leak his identity at all: I'm a literal crime lord, and the only thing you care about is me not buying you ice cream?

Danny: YES!!!!

Jason: Dork.

Right anyways, so Jason takes Danny along to meet Bruce and his fam but did say as soon as he started being uncomfortable they're leaving. The batfam is a bit blindsided by Danny, because they thought Jason was bringing his partner but its good to also get a feel for Danny's personality.

Danny and Jason did what's normal for them when Danny starts getting comfortable around the manor full of things that cost waaay more than his rent. Like half-heartedly insulting each other, being snarky, leaning on each other and other such things.

The batfam start thinking that there's more there than they know of. So they start watching a bit closer and ask a few round about questions that fly over Danny and Jason's heads. They just forget they're married often, unless it's regarding taxes.

All of this sends the wrong message when they walk into the same room and, being nosy, one of the batfam comes up to the door and uh. They hear the bed moving quite a lot.

So.

Meanwhile, Jason is trying to wrestle with Danny because this man does not pick a lane. He'll either be the human octopus (who is cold as hell) Jason has ever seen, he'll try to kick him off the bed in his sleep as if Jason personally offended him in some way, or he'll sleep in some wacky position that interrupts Jason's sleep. The last one is tied to the other two, however.

So, Jason has to frequently wrestle this man into a proper position where they both manage to get some sleep and it wouldn't have been so bad if Danny wasn't a goddamn sleep fighter. He would know, he had to nurse a bruised jaw for a few weeks.

Why do they sleep together? Listen, when you're in an apartment with not a lot of money, you gotta cut costs where you can alright?

i know there's a lot of ego and assumptions about my own susceptibility to manipulation going on here but i truly think i am immune to most cults. not even from a bullshit detection standpoint, but from a standpoint of every account i have ever heard/read of someone finding themselves in a cult or mlm includes descriptions of social situations that would overstimulate and stress me out so bad that i would vomit and leave immediately. a road trip with strangers? a self-improvement seminar? giving out my phone number to someone i met in an aisle at target? having to host a recruitment party? the constant hype machine behavior? love-bombing? the pressure to socialize? unpaid morning zoom calls? maybe it's because i never went to church as a kid but i have no concept of "faith" in something unseen nor do i ache for a "community" larger than a handful of fellow hobby-havers, so the idea of manufacturing a new passion just to fit into a crowd i otherwise have nothing in common with sounds like a type of psychological torture customized for me specifically. i barely muster passion for the things i like.

i can understand completely how people get sucked into them and don't think it's something on which character should solely be judged. most people actually do ache for that community, and most people are actually flattered and not freaked out if someone begins to fawn over them, because we are social creatures isolated by capitalism and crave comfort and validation from others. but on my mother, if a new friend dragged me to a "show" that turned out to be a motivational speaker my departure would be so rude and abrupt. i am too fucking autistic to chant affirmations with an auditorium of 1000 people.

if i am ever victimized by a "cult" it'll probably be more of a final fantasy house low-scale personality cult sort of situation. while i would hope better for myself, a charismatic online person warming up to me until i'm sucked into their little circle of sycophants they have collected is not outside the realm of imagination, and all i can hope is that my true friends will be honest enough about catching bad vibes that it never happens.

thinking about dirges dialogue to karlach way back in act 1, "this is all theres ever been for me"

thinking about how hes the only one without any frame of reference for "civilized life" or creature comforts

wyll and karlach have been roughing it for years, yeah, but they USED to have homes and houses in the city, used to live and sleep and eat there. used to have kitchens and beds

gale and shadowheart have only left THEIR homes relatively recently. the feel of their beds and the contents of the fridge are recent memories for them

astarion has been tortured for 200 years but fondly reminisces about the debauchery of the upper city. hes maintained a memory of the life he wants to experience again and the pleasures it brings, even as hes lost so much of his identity

lae'zel yearns to return to her creche. shes used to circumstances LIKE roughing it (she calls the rosymorn creche too soft for her liking) but those were in her HOME, with a community

minthara was a baenre with her own estate and servants

halsin was archdruid of the emerald grove, an environs enriched by the presence of the druids that had comfortably sustained them for years

jaheira has a house close to the upper city, and harper safehouses besides. minsc is familiar enough with them to recognize them despite being a statue for a century

its just dirge

he doesnt know what its like to sleep on a bed. to sleep on anything that isnt a bedroll on the ground, exposed to the open night sky. doesnt know what its like to have a roof overhead to keep the rain off. to have insulating walls that hold off the wind. to be comfortable without a fire that needs frequent tending, lest it go out and expose you to cold, or to scavenging animals. doesnt know what its like to not be woken by rain, to sleep through a storm.

hes never had a meal he didnt scavenge, picking through dead men's belongings and abandoned larders. every meal hes ever had has been raw or something he had to help prepare. hes never experienced being able to roll out of bed and stumble to a kitchen to have warm leftovers someone else made earlier, something made with him in mind thats warm and filling and didn't cost him any time or effort. you cant have leftovers when your trying to survive the wilds as fugitives from a murderous cult. you cook enough for everyone and you eat as much as you can stomach because you might not be able to eat at all tomorrow, and you need the strength to fight for your life later. hes never even seen kitchen equipment besides what could be scavenged that could fit over the campfire.

hes never bathed in anything that wasnt a river. never done his laundry except arduously, by hand, in a bucket of well water pulled from a village ruined long before his time. sweat and blood staining the only clothes hes ever owned, the only clothes he has, so if something rips he just has to make do. scavenging clothes that fit, that can be worn over his horns, around his tail, like looking for a needle in a haystack. soap is a rarity, an indulgence, so you make do with feeling as clean as you can scraping the grime off with water and your hands. he woke up covered in gore. hes never felt cleaner than this.

hes never had a head that didnt hurt. never woken up to a morning where the daylight didn't make him nauseous with its brightness. never had a body that didnt twitch and sway and swoon. never had a life without fear of fainting. never had a rest that didnt carry the threat of traitorous murderous indulgence. never had dreams that dont sicken. hes never felt rested. doesnt even have a frame of reference for what that sensation is even like. theres nothing to compare to. its as foreign as dwarvish to him. symbols without coherence or meaning. alien concepts, utterly novel.

every single day of his life is a fight against encroaching death. against encroaching enslavement. every single night is exposed to the elements in some fashion. theres no walls. theres no roof. a lot of times there isnt even a tent. the softest thing hes ever slept on was grass. there is nothing before this. theres only the tadpole in his skull, only the camp at night. only snippets of red in the fog of his past. the rest is lost to an all consuming oblivion.

theres only ever been...this for him.

There is no greater personal Hell of your own making then getting obsessed with some dead actor and not being able to watch their entire filmography.

hahaha wheee haha

[bean-there-before]

I just had a thought

in last life pearl and Scott totally cuddled and slept in the same bed

in double life I imagine pearl laying awake with Tilly on top of her meanwhile Scott and Cleo are cuddling across the map

I can’t imagine her in any other series sleeping in the same bed as any of her future teams or cuddling with them. Totally separated. She and Bigb had beds that were across from each other in limited life. In secret life her team lived in completely different houses and her dogs were outside. In wild life I think they have the equivalent of like three king sized beds pushed together, impulse, Scott, and Cleo were always more towards the inside while pearl sleeps right at the edge, nearly falling off the bed. There’s something so personal and intimate in sleeping that near to other people that she just can’t do after the double life betrayal. As much as she would like to be close to them she just can’t do that, it just reminds her of being alone and she takes some comfort in that.

Specifically thinking about long distance relationships today.

So tell me how you and your f/o would first meet online?

Quick tutorial for watching TEOS if you're outside the US

Get the windscribe vpn extension (I use Firefox, can't vouch that it'll work as well in Chrome), you get 10 gigs for free that refreshes every month.

Watching in the best quality eats up data like crazy BUT all you need to do is get the episode playing.

Start it and turn off the vpn and it'll keep playing, just remember to turn it back on before starting the next episode.

If you want to play it in the background

Set it to the worst quality and let it play, plenty of data for that.

Amazon sucks, so as far as I know, you can't loop a show like a playlist. Keep this in mind because it automatically rolls into something else after the last episode.

I have it playing on my second monitor so I can keep an eye on it.

Obviously this means you can't really use your browser for anything else or you'd be wasting vpn data.

You can use incognito mode and make sure the vpn is blocked from running. Or just use a different browser. From a quick google search, it looks like those are simpler options than trying to run two separate instances of one browser.

Uh. Quick note for something that literally just happened as I'm writing this post. I think I accidentally let the last episode end and as the next thing was trying to play Amazon detected the vpn. A quick browser restart & going to the show by link in Mark's vid fixed it.

Scratch that apparently it didn't fix it. But I still got a good few repeats in so it'll work for some time at least.
