A month or so ago, I started making a baby blanket for a coworker that's having a baby, and it's still only about a fourth completed. The baby is due this week. I haven't taken my trash or recycling out in about 2 weeks. I just realized that I haven't showered since Tuesday. I have a a fanfic that's only a third completed. I keep forgetting to take my wet clothes out of the washer, so they get dried out and stinky, so I have to wash them again.

And I spent $400 on a bunch of stuff off Amazon.

Apologies for the lackluster interactions lately, I have not been in a good headspace lately. Those of you in the US will understand. Just not really feeling like doing much on top of having to work insane hours right now.

“Don’t be afraid. Come on. Take your medicine!”

Some sick baby Makoto doodles

(self indulgent bc I too am sick ;w;)

So babies and toddlers can take medicine in multiple ways which breeds a lot of interesting scenario ideas for this little one if he gets sick. I doodled them all as a therapeutic distraction.

He hates the icky medicine ;-;

I was too lazy to fully color it so tried a different color style for doodles~ i think it works~?

Which one were you as a kid w taking medicine? (answer in replies if u want)

color version before I gave up

yeah nah ;w;

Just a bit of lore relevant vent art (with terrible proportions bc apparently I mess that up horribly when I'm tired ugh. Watch me regret posting this tomorrow. The head size is already driving me mad bc it's too big, and I can feel myself wanting to abort this mission already) of Mourynn just, lying down on top of one of those large elevated Pale Tree roots far above the Grove (and far away from everyone else), and during the time between the early years and before the Personal story. Caithe is gone (Destiny's Edge), Wynne is gone (bc well, y'know...), even Faolain is gone (bc of Caithe in DE), and she's just feeling miserable, lost, and alone. (Her hair is in between her sapling hair and the Zhaitan hair, so it's grown out a bit bc she's depressed, and she's meant to be in the new outfit she designed, but I'm in the process of redesigning it a bit, so I've made a few tentative changes for now. Her collar is now just an extension of her clavicle leaves which can be put up like a collar, or can be draped down over her shoulders or back)

also i want to again apologise for how phenomenally behind i have been with reblogging/responding to artworks on here, including art drawn for me or propaganda for the tournament!!

i'm hoping to start getting to my backlog for this VERY soon, ideally within the next two weeks. so you may start to see an increase of this on your timelines. and if i haven't yet gotten to your artwork don't worry, i most likely have it in my drafts!!!

The first half of There! Right There! from the Legally Blonde Musical, but it's people (or even the daggers) speculating about Iceman at an event or something and then Mavericks comes in and kisses and him and it turns out he's both gay and European.

For the Spirits—

Chapter IV: To Be Human.

To feel like crying, but say you're fine

To think you're losing all the time

To never truly know your mind

Just to breathe, and to bleed

Is how to be human

—How To Be Human by Amber Run

The Painted Lady hummed, “I was beginning to think you’d pretend I wasn’t here.”

“Are you?” he muttered, leaning over the rail. She tilted her head.

“Am I what?”

Zuko turned to face her.

“Here.”

Hi! I'm not sure if this is the kind of thing you usually answer so no worries if not. Your blog has been a big encouragement to me over the years and I really appreciate the love and care you put into it!

I'm a chronically ill/disabled college student trying to make it through premed, and recently when I was talking in an anonymous community about a rough patch with my health and how it affected my performance in school, another premed started telling me I should just drop out until I'm better (even though i'm chronically ill), that I'm being a bad doctor to my current patients by allowing myself to do poorly, that people like me shouldn't be wasting time trying to be doctors.

i've worked so hard on my self worth but i'm already having a rough patch and it really hurt especially since i've really valued good doctors in my life. my parents and academic advisor have only been putting more pressure on me and i thought i'd reach out and see if you might have any encouragement or advice, because right now i feel like no one believes in me.

yeah honestly that person would be the one who is a bad doctor because they’re saying stuff like that to someone who is chronically ill and seems to not get the chronic part of it. I think having a chronic illness might actually add value to what you want as your career since it gives you life experience that other doctors don’t have, as you said it yourself, you know the value of a good doctor when someone needs help and you want to do your best. I don’t know if your parents are putting pressure on you out of worry for your health or wanting you to push through or maybe both, but that pressure doesn’t really help so maybe if you talk to them and set some boundaries might get them to respect the fact that it is your life ultimately and you should get to make decisions about your career and to health.

Studying to be a doctor is brutal in my country and I imagine it is a lot of work in yours too, and you should put your health above everything else but even though you are having a rough time with your health, it seems that you want to keep going, and you are the one living in your body, you are the one who knows your needs, so if you feel like doing it, do it. I imagine you’re probably on a break from school since it’s the end of the year so hopefully you don’t have to study right now and can get a lot of rest during this time and maybe do things that are fun and relaxing (like watching a movie, reading, things that don’t take too many spoons) to also ease the pressure of your illness and the pressure from other people.

Ultimately, this is your decision, and if you’re evaluating your own situation and deciding to do it, then you should do it. I know you’ll do your best, probably even more than that discouraging person who said you wouldn’t be able to be a good doctor, since you value what you do and seem to put a lot of effort, and as I said, you have life experience that they don’t. You should try it out since that’s what you want, and you’re the one living in your body with your chronic illness. I really hope you take care of yourself if you’re on a break right now and don’t take in too much of this pressure and that resting and taking it easy this time of the year helps a little with your illness so you can start your next semester feeling a little better. Maybe things will be really rough, and if they are, take a break if it’s needed, but maybe you’ll be fine, and the only way to know how things will be like it is to try, though if you feel like you can do it, then I believe you can do it because you’re the one who knows what your body is going through.

Your heart seems to be in this career and you should try it. Only you know what you go through, and I’m honestly cheering for you that things get better with your health and cheering for you with your career. I think you’ll do good things as a doctor, you seem to care a lot and to put effort in it, just remember to prioritize your health, because often a lot of doctors don’t since the job can be so demanding. I think you know what you’re doing and I am sending you my best wishes for your health, for the new year, for your next semester, and I know you’re going to do your best, just try not to put too much pressure on yourself.

7x05 Eddie Spec (Claw arm call)

A lot of people have been talking about the promo and Buck's date (rightly, because !!!) but I haven't seen anyone talking about the rest of the promo with the dude with the claw hand being a speaker at a convention talking about "the secret to self-control" with the sign "I'm the boss of me" behind him, while his hand seemingly takes on a life on its own and tries to hurt him.

Given how we know this episode is gonna have a huge Eddie plot and will likely be Eddie-centric if not feature him heavily, and calls are usually supposed to reflect whatever is going on in the character's personal lives, I can't help but feel like this "self-control" convention is pretty interesting to see in relation to an episode where Eddie's going to be struggling with his relationship with Marisol (and maybe his sexuality subtextually).

Eddie and "self-control" have already had a tumultuous relationship over the course of the whole time he's been on the show. A lot of Eddie's personality is very restrictive, not allowing himself certain things either because he doesn't think he deserves it, or because he would rather sacrifice his own wants and needs in order to prioritize someone else's (usually Christopher's). Eddie's irrational need to always be in control of himself (hence why he was so in denial about his panic attacks) has caused him many many issues over the years, and while he's definitely started unpacking a lot of it, especially in regards to his military service and his relationship with his dad, he hasn't really done so in regards to his relationships, and I think that's on purpose.

"Self-control" is also "self-denial" which is also in the same vein as "repression" and I just can't help but feel like this call will likely mirror Eddie, in that the "hand that suddenly has a life of its own" and is now coming back to hurt the man, is a reflection of something within Eddie that he's tried desperately to control before, but will now take on a life of its own. When you deny yourself something, it's usually denying a desire of some kind. And I think that it's time that Eddie's desires that he's been so desperately trying to keep under lock and key for years will finally take on a life of their own, and the more Eddie desperately tries to wrangle it back inside, to shut it up, to stifle it, to deny it, the harder it will fight back and the worse it will hurt him in the process.

My prediction for that call is the second that man finally stops trying to control his arm will be the second he's free of whatever is "possessing" it. Because in actuality, the arm isn't being possessed, it doesn't have a life of its own (it may or may not be something medical idk but my guess is still that it's likely something psychological). The man's arm is a part of him. Just like Eddie's sexuality is a part of him. And Eddie can only find harmony in himself, and stop hurting himself by making choices he knows he doesn't actually want, when he stops trying to control the Unspoken thing inside him and lets himself be free.

I'm not saying Eddie's going to be having any big revelations in this episode, or that it's going to be resolved right away but this call will likely be a strong hint at where Eddie's story is going to go, and 7x05 will be just the start of it.

I have Gravity Falls and Etc. fic(s) idea(s)

Which, I am going to write now while I am having this fic idea (probably going to be a short one, but in the future I might make a revised expanded version or something. Who knows).

I actually have multiple Gravity Falls and GF TAU and Reverse Falls and etc. stuff that stems from this specific The Book of Bill thing.

Specifically stuff exploring Dipper's nightmares.

(I have some other ideas for the other dreams and/or nightmares too. Sometimes even in relation to Dipper's in some way).

I love my boy, and his nightmares hurt my heart.

But also because I love him, I want to explore even more of issues/trauma/suffering and/or to do Dipper angst. And etc.

Because I want both happiness and/or suffering for my faves/the characters I love very much.

Like Dipper.

So he is going to be getting even more of that from me, probably.

Because he is great and I love him.
