medical greyspace where everyone is nice to you but everyone except your surgeon calls you “she” despite being there to get your tits cut off

[cmishwrites]

rereading my FO4 fanfics, realizing I really suck at finishing them >.<.

that said, the one I really want to throw at the greyspace is... well complicated. Do I post as I wrote it, with the long intro that sets things up or... And the themes in some of this is a bit.. well it could def be called triggery. I'm so out of the loop. is anyone even activly sharing falllout fanfic anymore? Not that it matters honestly but still. I hate this wishy-washy me. It's been too long since I've shared my writing in any capacity. then there's the whole... I gotta finish the damn thing too... ANYWAYS... *goes back to tidying up a not as messy as I thought WIP*

Edited to add: I wish my drawing skills were better, one little scene in that fanfic I would love to draw (maxson getting teased about a hickey, I mean come on that would be epic) but alas, I've neglected my drawing skills and I think even stick figures might be beyond my abilities atm. XD

12, 18 and 19 for the ask game

12. the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them: Oh there are several I could name. I'd probably go with Brooke, though. She's so petty! She's funny to me :3

18. it's absolutely criminal that the fandom has been sleeping on... I reblogged a post about this a little while ago, but Nathan with powers. Heck, everyone with powers! (That's sort of what my Greyspace AU is gonna be like :3 ) Also, I really think people should do more crossovers with Until Dawn. They're very similar games in a lot of little ways.

19. you're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like... I think the Rachel/Frank dynamic is really interesting. Of course, it's a hideously unhealthy relationship, is illegal, has a serious power imbalance, and may very well have been coerced on Rachel's part. I'd like to see an AU where the sexy stuff gets extracted and instead, he's a big brother figure to her, or, heck, if Frank, Sera, and Rachel become kind of an offbeat little family of choice. (Also, I love David as a character, but I'm not ashamed of that.)

HOPE U ENJOY

[butts-bouncing-on-the-beltway]

So. It's not specific strategies or anything (legally and ethically I **cannot**)

But I've always found that understanding not just the whats (so wonderfully reflected above in the comic) but also the whys/hows can help me cope better over all.

So let me see if I can take each of these one at a time.

Habits and patterns not sticking tends to stem from a few places: all or nothing thinking/perfectionism, executive dysfunction around working memory and task breakdown/management, and lack of internal bio-chemical reward responses at task initiation, just prior to task completion, and following task completion.

Some examples of how this can look:

All or nothing thinking says that if I can't "make a real dent" in a task, there's no point wasting my vanishingly rare energy and functioning on it, and that if I fall off of "keeping up on maintenance" then my routine is over rather than having been interruped, and lacking the greyspace of thought to "remember-believe" that I can return to the routine or even plan ahead for how to deal with interruptions and intermittent roadblocks as part of my routine. It also prevents me from being able to prioritize tasks in my brain, which is part of why tasks always seem to expand when I try to interact with them, leading me to get distracted or overwhelmed or otherwise wander off from my needs. And the reason my energy and functioning is so vanishingly rare, is that my brain is "understimulated" without the necessary function of reward responses, and my autonomic system is "overstimulated" without the ability to consistently regulate environmental, emotional, and social stressors.

Things that help are often things that help me intentionally mamage stressors and regulate my nervous system, as well as ways of introducing reward responses I do experience into my "task work" process to make up for the absence of them organically (part of this for me is medication, part is coping strategy, part is "grazing" food rather than eating separate sit down meals, etc). And what always always matters is that I take shame out of how I talk to and about myself. This feels silly at first, it really does. You feel ridiculous doing it, and then you kinda start shittalking the process and yourself and how you experience it and then one day you kinda look at that way you have of talking to yourself and realize it. It just sucks all the good out of your life. And you start to feel more comfortable with the new ways of talking to yourself. And you start to notice all the little shames that pile up throughout the day and how scary it is that letting go of that shame will mean things never get done but then somehow they do. And you realize the shame made it harder. Makes everything harder. Letting it go doesn't end mistakes or mishaps sure, but they somehow **genuinely** matter less? Not just to you, but in their impact and damage on your life.

Weirdly, it's not the understimulation (exactly) that causes dissatisfaction and mental/emotional restlessness! It's the autonomic hyperactivity (this is why we see similar expressions in our PTSD cousins). Calming our autonomic system can actually increase our overall satisfaction with life, hobbies, relationships, etc. It's something to do with how our body and brain are activated to direct and prioritize bodily resources when our nervous system dysregulates (the "hyperactive" in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is referring to autonomic hyperactivity that causes chronic or irregular autonomic dysregulation - often experienced in ADHD expressions as intense emotional escalations that are hard to "come down from" and/or general psychological/physiological symptoms resulting from chronic stress). Folks with chronically hyperactive autonomic systems are prone to needing activity to regulate their autonomic system, rather than stillness or rest (although of course everyone needs a little of both, it's more a ratio thing I think) and so while we often think of "destressing" as "resting", that can actually be **stressing** for us instead. I do a lot of puttering around outside in the yard doing garden or animal stuff as "rest" or like fidget crafts like finger weaving or idle tap games while I listen to music or watch a show. The expression and release of autonomic hyperactivity is super soothing, and generally lets me feel more consistently relaxed. I do a lot of fun and weird diaphraghmatic breathing exercises (polyvagal approaches to autonomic regulation), a lot of low impact- movement based activities, and create "planned unstructured time" each day to just sort of putter around and follow my brain like a dog chasing a bone dangling in front of its face by a stick stuck in its own collar. I always do weird stuff. Not like. Interesting weird. Just weird. But it helps!

Building up skills around the general vibe of "this too shall pass, and here's how i can be kind to myself in the meantime" tends to be really valuable to those rejection sensitivity moments. I've got some great structured journal prompts I worked out with a therapist's help to "self reflect" on what feelings or needs are being communicated via the rejection experience, a self care plan to get through the parts I have less control/influence over and a processing/coping plan to get through the parts I can be more proactive about. I do a lot of checking in with my body and brain (I set timers/alarms for this) and use a lot of visual thought mapping and prompting in my environment (e.g. task step lists for cleaning a room pre-written on a whiteboard in that room, shared calendars, etc) to reduce the demand of routine/cyclical tasks on my executive functioning.

I have a reward jar!

The jar gets filled over time by routine task completion on a task by task basis, and when it's full, I get to buy new plants :)

It's a system I learned while training dogs (I know I know) and developing a "no failure" system of training for them. I realized I needed to change my own concept of/relationship to failure states. I really have a hard time coping with failure. And like. That'll probably always be true. But I can remove failure states from my life until they're rarer to encounter, so that overtime my sensitivity to it can scale down from lack of repeat trigger, and my coping skills for bleedthrough failure state emotional care and response can be more consistently effective.

One of the ways I do this is that I keep an extended documentation of things I "need to do" but I only allow myself to keep a max of 3 of them on my mind at once. And once I have interacted with one of these "priorities" to the extent of my comfort both physical and psychological, I put the task's respective reward marker in the jar. Tasks I struggle with the most get the biggest reward markers that take up the most space in the jar while the tasks I am more currently more consistent with get the smaller reward markers (think a silver dollar versus a dime).

I like getting my lil thing. I like how colorful my jar is. I like taking my little $10 allowance to the plant store like an excited 9yr old who has only just heard of allowances. I like having a plant to putter around and relax with. All positives in my book. Gotta find your own positives and way of removing failure states as an option.

It's not easy. And it's more of a process than a skillset? Because my relationship with myself and my environment is always changing, which means the way I need support in that environment is always changing even if the base kind of support needed doesn't. So I'm constantly adjusting and modulating and just. I dunno being really intentional about everything all the time. And it can suck sometimes, but other times its really really good, and mostly I'm just. Doing okay. Which is pretty cool :)

Anyway. I dunno if that's closure really, but I think it's worth more of us making our way through life acknowledging our experiences in ways that are mechanical and constructive when we can, rather than always hanging out in the self-deprecating space I think aot of us are prone to occupying due to our battles with shame. It's like building muscle memory. The more you do it, the easier and more reflexive it becomes.

‪The incorrect and negative beliefs we can get from years of negative feedback not knowing we have ADHD or how it affects our lives. While not everything is solely caused by ADHD, it can affect us and our comorbidities in many, many ways. Good news is, treating ADHD can do wonders for Anxiety and Depression!

Enoch Yochai.

Interview by: Jesus Floratine

It’s a rare privilege to be able to interview a former GALSIM worker, or one of the few publicly known consultants for SSC. For them to also be an authority on liturgicode and ethical cloning, on greyspace politics and military deescalation, to possess an honourary Karrakin title… Well, there’s only one person to have done all that. But when I bring up any of these life-defining roles, he brushes it aside.

Enoch Yochai: I look back when I need to focus on the future. Every task, every job I have performed is a piece in a greater mechanism: and my mind doesn’t dwell on the details of the last gear, but on the motions the complete structure will perform.

He sits with quiet- no, silent dignity. Asking him a question feels like asking a magic mirror; you’re both looking straight at yourself, and at the exact truth you want to see. His legendary charisma evident in that, I suppose. In how it feels easier to be unknowing around him, because he’ll probably know, and will definitely set you right with more knowledge than before. Enamoured as I was, you’ll have to excuse me yet another question regarding his legendary reputation.

Floratine: People have called you a ‘new Neo-Anthropocene man’. Your thoughts on this?

Yochai: I prefer the simpler title of ‘polymath.’ Especially given all of the unsavoury Sec-Com elements that people don’t seem to think about nearly enough when we consider the Neo-Anthropocene. Like the renaissance long before it, those times had a background of blood: as a canvas, both behind and part of all the art and knowledge we enjoy from it. No, no… I may be getting on but I am no relic from a better past than there ever was.

I simply like to dabble, is all.

F: For someone who is ‘getting on’, you’re in remarkably fine form. But on the subject of your dabbling, would you tell us more about the new venture that’s shaken all public perception?

That laugh of his is easy and welcoming; for someone cutting such an impressive figure and in such a sharp suit, no less. (I must have seen ten times the socialites in bright white suits since he made such a name for himself in them- though the light greys he has migrated to compliment his true silver hair well indeed.) Even with all those corners and immaculate lines, that seem so coldly imposing on so many of our more detached officials, he never seems anything less than a person- if anything, he often seems more than one. Which is why that new career change of his is so odd.

For those reading this article who are out of time as to this latest development; well, I may as well let the man himself introduce you to his first, and rather odd, large-scale management role.

Y: Cabal-A Computing and Combat Contractors. A service melding the force and agility of a modern, frame-based small-team private military group, with the resources and knowledge of galaxy-class technological professionals. Two kinds of groups working in tandem to cover the weaknesses of the other, and to simultaneously provide the two most critical services commonly needed in the longer arms of our galaxy.

F: The longer arms, you say? So this group, Cabal-

Y: CA-3C, if you wish to keep it succinct.

F: Thank you; CA-3C will be operating in the long rim, then? Us core system residents will be missing you!

Y: I will admit that the long rim in particular is not an area of space I am particularly involved in, now or in the near future- different directions have piqued more of my interest. And I will admit that there is a lot I will miss in the indeterminate future about our Union’s core worlds.

But equally, I cannot preach travel enough to any non-cosmopolitans reading. For as much rougher as the edges of the diaspora may be, it’s only through roughness that we can smooth out all the problems that plague us still. We don’t begrudge sandpaper its coarse grain.

I have found that every problem I have solved, the solution has been found where there was still adversity. It is by solving other problems that we better understand our own- an understanding that we can take in cycles, to solve other matters once again. All the problems that remain to be solved, and the infinite approaches to them; that has always made the diaspora, dare I say it, the cradle of modern personhood and philosophy.

F: A bold statement, indeed! To say that our core worlds owe much of their culture and progress to those on the fringes of our galactic hub- well, we see it often, don’t we?

Y: Something like that. Yes.

F: Well, one last question then, that I’m sure people have been intensely curious about; I certainly have. The old rumours that you were the pilot participating in the grand Pankrati tournament of 4901, that you were the one competing under the callsign “Keter”… They’ve been resurfacing given your move into mercenary work, so regardless of that competition-

Y: Which I almost won.

I confess, my sputtering here made for a fair pause in the interview- so I apologise for any candidness lost as a consequence.

But yes, it is true! For any who doubt the veracity of this, I can attest to seeing the actual registration forms myself- and the KBPL have announced they too will be releasing official confirmation, simultaneously with the publication of this piece.

Y: It’s actually a common mistake, that my callsign was Keter. It was, and still is, the name I give that frame. When I participated in the tournament, I did so under no callsign at all.

But, no, to answer the question I am sure you intended to pose, I myself will not be a combatant. Mercenary work is beyond my skillset as little more than a hobbyist of a spectacle fighter. But never let it be said that I lead a group without having walked at least half a mile in their shoes. Nothing worse than a bureaucrat who knows nothing of reality on the ground barking orders. I stand by that mow more than ever.

F: Well, I’m certain only the best of the best will be working for you, and furthering whatever noble endeavours your group decides to aid.

Y: I already have much of a team assembled. And not to disparage any contemporaries of mine in any field, but there is often a better option than the best in a field- and that is the one who doesn’t fit in it.

I’ve said this about every project, but I plan on changing everything we know, that I can.

F: You haven’t disappointed us yet!

Y: Thank you kindly.

As I see it, the people who couldn’t possibly join any group but mine are surely the ones that will exact that change- the ones who aren’t content with perfect motions in a complete world.

I don’t need a perfect algorithm, no. I have that handled. We need enough people, who are perfectly people. Ones who can’t help but push us all into the future.

That’s what we need. It’s what I need.

And it’s what I’m going to have.

[lonesuperhero]

Every so often, I get hit a feeling of something missing, someone missing.

I go through life, doing things, and it feels wrong

I want to reach out an grab its hand, wrap my arms around it, trace patterns into its skin

I turn to my phone with thoughts of “oh it would love this!” And “I can’t wait to tell it about what happened today”

I wring my pointer finger, circling the now empty spot. Funnily enough, in Greyspace, my ring now sits on a chain around my neck.

There’s an empty space by my side and I hate it.

I hate that throughout my trip to London and Iceland, all I could think was “I wish it were here. I wish i could show it these things.”

I hate that I’d be doing the most mundane things or going to various events and I get a phantom feeling of it brushing against me, of holding hands and just being together.

I hate that I don’t know if I will ever see it again.

I hate that my emotions keep swinging between rage and misery

I just

I just miss it so fucking much

I’ve consulted Lady Fate alongside my Lady of the Moon, in a more unconventional method, to ask if we’d ever be together again. Her response was yes, but I can’t help but feel doubtful… I’ll do a more in depth consultation in sometime when I’m in a good headspace

I hope we get a second chance; I hope our story isn’t over yet, like it said, before it left

Hope is such a fickle thing

[rounderhouse]

sometimes the idea of 'jailbreaking' your body is very literal. augmentation technology is DRM-protected, and megacorps skulk through this legal greyspace with impunity. they may not be able to throw you in prison for making modifications to your augments, but they can remotely disable your limbs, cut your eyesight from a service center hundreds of miles away. your body becomes your prison, weighed down by dozens of pounds of metal that no longer obey you as their master. for those with neural implants, the sudden loss of function can cause a 'backsplash', leaving the mind in a vegetative state indefinitely.

a team of pro-bono lawyers have a hearing next month to argue these actions qualify as unlawful imprisonment; shame they all had to get neural implants to remain competitive in law school.

“cyberpunk future where you need to make payments on your cybernetics or they get repo’d” is good, but doesn’t go far enough. consider cyberpunk future where the terms of service restrict how you can use your augments and implants — your prosthetic hands physically quake and lock up if you try to use them for things your medical company deems “a risk factor” (which somehow includes protesting the very same biomedical conglomerate), and your eyes automatically blur information that tells you how to improve or update augments yourself. but even surrounded by this much greed, widespread underground communities exist of people helping one another jailbreak their titanium bodies, recapturing the autonomy corporations have methodically stripped away from them.

"I think, yeah," Jeongguk mumbles, throwing back a wider smile towards Taehyung which the older immediately mirrors. "You ready, hyung?"

"Maybe," Taehyung replies, coy smile present in his face. "Let's start, shall we?" "Anything you want to see specifically, hyung?"

"Honestly?" "Honestly." "Just you, Guk," Taehyung says. "Just you."

Albeit awkwardly, Jeongguk takes that information smiling and lets himself giggle in excitement with the thought of finally shooting outdoors. He's with Taehyung and so, he would be alright. He would do alright, just like Taehyung has always told him whenever he asks how he did after every shoot.
