Wiztober Day 23: Silent Disco
ok I feel I must explain this one so I headcanon that after learning shadow magic the wizard is uncanny in a mildly unsettling way (when we first interact with a boss with it we do mention the room is shifting so) and I keep thinking about that one post about us beating up duncan and coming back so I decided to make an amalgamation of that where we are fighting at the disco and the silence comes from the threatening presence of the wizard and the tension !
#wiztober2023#wizard101#wizzy101#duncan grimwater#wizard101 art#wizard101 oc#w101#this is referenced off that one makima panel of her on the train btw#also red bc my wizard is fire and i feel like this is not a known thing bc she dresses in black#but like u know how much ash fire wizards probably make?#the red and pink clothes show it so much we dont have time to always do laundry while saving the world#also i must add this style is heavily influenced by veron_1411 on twitter plz go check them out !

sorry for the lighting but i feel like you can still tell what’s going on and it’s not like a portfolio picture so yay ya yay stuff from school now that it’s properly started :) we were doing self portraits inspired by books from the library and mine was a collection of sci fi movie posters which is something i’ve never done before :]
#obligatory personal stuff doesn’t get as much interaction but luckily i’m posting for ME!!! YIPPEEEEEE!!!!#artists on tumblr#sci fi art#and those will be my two tags for today :)#hoping to take a break from assignment and do a proper slimepompurin later today like i said i wanted to#not that i’ve ever been good at doing things ive said i want to do#cause i also want to print my ballot and do laundry#we did a little walk around look at other peoples work in their sketchbooks and write them sticky notes and i got six fucking sticky notes#everyone in the class had 3 each#like logically if everyone was at a sketchbook each time and didn’t double up the most you should get is three#i got six i was so overwhelmed but they were so nice#like i had to take anxiety meds but in a good way if u know what i mean#did wonders for my imposter syndrome i feel so much better#taking an illustration course btw!!! i’ve said that on my main but not here so if you look at my mess of tags you get that bit of lore#i’m an international student :) very scary but very excited i already feel good about it unless i forget to take meds in which case it feels#like i’m dying#medicated though!! i feel so excited i’ve always wanted to go to art school#and i did Not Like the US#so i’m in the Uk now and there aren’t guns everywhere and they know how to make stall doors properly thank god#more comfortable pissing here then i am in my home town#partially cause it’s illegal for me to do that in my home town

lucian makes a 3 note tumblr post and suddenly everyone wants to put his ass on trial for every grievance the family has against him. okayyy what if we all killed ourselves
#fuck off..im serious like what is this. is anybody fucking seeing this#and nobody wants to speak for themselves it all comes down to one person having to relay the whole laundry list of my crimes#as if i ever get more than one check in a year. as if they know anything about me or who i am#beyond what apparently gets looked at on my blog and relayed to my mother. living in the fucking digital panopticon apparently#i hope everyone is happy! lucian is the problem! he’s always been so ungrateful and inconsiderate! let’s all make him feel trapped.#no wonder i had to get out of there. years of my life i dedicated to enduring my mother so that i could be near my sister#and every time crucify lucian day comes back around it’s everyone’s turn to tell me how i failed her as if i dont fucking know that#i dont need them leveraging her over me like a sick kick in the gut every time they speak to me. like they know how much i love her#burning bridges. fuck off. ive been chased back across the bridge every time.

Glad I’m starting therapy so soon after moving out ☝️ I am already feeling the helplessness and loneliness
#vent#<- slightly? not that strongly? this is a pretty chill post like. I feel pretty chill#but also :( sad#I miss my family and friends at home#I haven’t really talked to my roommates#including the one who’s been my friend since high school bc she’s been sick (?) for the past few days#and this semester is definitely going to be A Lot#I got accepted into another choir but I’m most likely not joining bc my schedule is so packed#but the main thing is#I FEEL LIKE A BABY#my parents never really made me cook or clean and I just feel kinda useless#I’m just gonna have to force myself to learn which is fine#and my parents have offered to walk me through stuff over the phone when they can#but idk I just feel really immature bc like. damn I am 20 and don’t know how to cook Anything#I’m gonna go grocery shopping either tonight or tomorrow and get some sandwich supplies and other non-cooking stuff#so we are not completely doomed lol#also I need to do laundry tomorrow.. which. I can do and have done before. but I’m still gonna call my mom for guidance 😅#idk I think the main thing that’s stressing me out is spending money on food vs. groceries#and trying to eat at least some protein and fruits/vegetables etc. while also not spending exorbitantly#bc I am SOOOO irrationally anxious about money. I hate hate hate spending money#so the whole idea of grocery shopping is just kind of filling me with dread 🥲#but I will do it bc I need to Adult at some point#I just. idk I guess most students do this and I’m being whiny about it bc I’m not used to it??#but it just feels like So Much to be taking five classes and doing a bunch of extracurriculars and living on my own for the first time!#like! ahhh! too much at once!#😰😰😰#and I need to get an internship soon 😀 and if I don’t get one this semester I need to at least get a job so I can stress less about money 😀#but I always stress about money regardless 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀 even though I have scholarships savings etc 😀😀 ocd things! 😁 (🥲)#thank god for my meds and the thought that I’ll be starting therapy in the next week or two#and also my mom for being like the sweetest wver

So I've hit a bit of a dead end in my life where I have no idea what to do or what I want to do. Do you have any advice on how to try and figure it all out?
Also I love ur duncney fics you should be an author <3
listen, anon. i'm 26. as much as i am flattered that you think i have it figured out, i do not. i'm willing to bet i wont have it figured out in ten years or twenty or forty-five. the thing is, i'm fine with that.
so here's my advice:
honestly, just keep living. put one foot in front of the other. find things you enjoy for no other purpose than enjoyment.
you don't have to 'do' anything -- living is about experiences. not every one of them have to have a purpose.
most of being human is drifting around and wondering why youre here. none of us really have the answer. that's okay. that's normal. maybe you'll never figure out what you're meant to 'do'. and that's fine!
the thing that keeps me anchored in the sea of Being Alive All the Time, and the thing that keeps most people anchored, is passion.
step one of discovering your passion, whatever it is, is to allow yourself to discover it. pick up pointless new hobbies and let yourself put them down if you dont enjoy them. read new books. read wikipedia articles for things youve never heard of. go on long walks in new parts of your neighborhood. listen to a new podcast. watch a video essay about something stupid youve always been curious about.
make bad art. paint shitty pictures, draw shitty portraits, write shitty stories. let yourself be bad at things. let yourself be purposeless.
accept the fact that you are human and unsure about your place in the universe -- because those two things go hand in hand. this is the curse of sentience. embrace it.
#sometimes knowing what to do will come to you#but that knowledge isnt permanent#you will always come unmoored#life is not lived in the safety of a harbor but on the open ocean#let yourself discover who you are. and then discover who you are again. and then discover who you are again. and then--#you are not at a dead end. you are at a crossroads#and if you just keep going you'll carry yourself to where you want to go#even if you have no idea where that is#anon#also thank you for reading my fics! see the 'make bad art' portion of this to know how i do it#sorry this is long im currently manic and i had so many thoughts#i am not the pinnacle of achievement my shit posts paint me as#i smoke too much weed and love a drunk ciggie i never do my laundry i dont believe in yardwork#i jump from hobby to hobby i spent too much money i love to cook but hate cooking#im the queen of procrastination i cry in court bathrooms i hold a grudge like its a hand#i cant figure out how to get my dog to listen to me i dont know when to shut up i dont know when to speak out#i forget to wear sunscreen i havent figured out how to forgive my father im a star wars prequel apologist#i dont know if ill ever know what to do or how to do it#i just keep moving forward and find what i need#your life is not a fetch quest for some higher purpose#it's just your life. try not to take it too seriously#ask#mumbles#jesus this is long

#it’s so hard to get up today#I started my laundry at least#but now what#should get food but no motivation#I want to paint but I can’t here#I should organize and put back all the shit I brought to murphys#but it just makes me sad#why organize all this shit when I know I won’t be able to use it anytime soon#could go out and smoke but man it’s exhausting always looking over my shoulder to see if someone called the cops on me#FOR JUST CHILLING IN MY CAR#I want a safe space where I can do what I want#I miss my old townhouse more than words can express#should get up#but I’m at the point where I’m like what’s the point?#my friend is most likely coming over after they get off of work to help me get up#but until then#how much do you wanna bet that I’m gonna just fall asleep for a few hours#sigh#shut up rosie

baked a cake from scratch, fed the dogs and the father, cleaned the kitchen, wrapped christmas presents. wearing a beige sweaterdress and black ballet flats, hair in bun. reading a profile on hilaria baldwin…the cottagecore tradwife in me is winning i fear
#im being sarcastic but honestly though i keep having the creeping and uncharitable thought of like. i don’t think this is quite as hard as#my mother has always made it seem. and my father is literally zero help and she works really hard but also there was always the not-always-#unspoken implication that the reason the house was always kind of messy and disorganized and everything was kind of chaotic and accompanied#by a distinct sense of overwhelm was because of my sister and I#either our stuff or our actions or the fact that taking care of us took up too much time she could devote to other stuff#but neither my sister nor i live at home full time anymore and when we do at least i am objectively more helpful than anything else#so im like okay well that wasn’t it then#and like i also get that everyone thinks they could do better until THEY get married and have kids and then you see#but the backlash against the pressure for everything to be picture perfect has turned into (imo) a general “relatable” idea that#adulthood and especially marriage and parenthood is nothing but a slide into complacency and chaos forever and like. i just don’t agree wit#that. obviously you cannot live as you did as a single person or a non parent but the prevailing image of parenthood i see advertised as#“realistic” is one where everyone is constantly exhausted unhappy and living in filth#i See a question from a woman asking how to SURVIVE nine whole days of winter break with her children. SURVIVE? wtf?#i do think parents of today spend too much time with their children and that’s part of the issue but also like. i cannot believe that#everything is as thoroughly and completely awful as it is pretty much always portrayed nowadays#and how i see it reflected at me. and this isn’t like a housewives don’t work aaaa thing because no.#but like. when i see people being like you can’t expect your sahm to get the laundry done OR dinner made OR the house clean on a consistent#basis EVER i am kind of like…..but literally what are you doing then if none of those things??#cause unless you homeschool or have literal infants (whole different ballgame) then like…what are you doing#maybe an unpopular opinion but I think a lot of women are bad at being housewives. because it is a skill that women used to study and learn#and now it’s not but it’s still the most important job in society#so we took away all the instruction manuals for the backbone of society and now who comes the closest to approximating an educational resou#? influencers. which is horrible because any person you are taking advice from on Instagram is someone with a public Instagram account#which automatically makes them odd and untrustworthy and not someone at least I would want to emulate.#my mother doesn’t apply to this she is a great homemaker her issues are (1) time management (2) fatigue (3) starts too many projects#but i digress#i suppose i shouldn’t say that I reject the idea children turn your life to chaos because I don’t. but I do reject the idea that#the chaos of parenthood sentences everyone to a perpetual state of overwhelm and reactivity#that simply has never been the case for people in any time period before now even when raising children and the daily business of living wa#far more labor intensive

This is @thatdoodlebug to me when I'm frothing at the mouth about hotel linen...
Thankfully haven't truly considered bringing back the Plague yet...though considering moth farming...
#my wild english rose#Look you guys have no idea how much I hate linen at my work#Every. Damn. Weekend. There. Is. So. Much. Laundry.#Maybe Drac has a point sometimes but then I have -her- to remind me there are good things#Always choose the one who sees your monstrous sides and learns how to soothe them...

My older sister and I would literally be dead without each other and I mean literally
#my mom went on vacation with my brother so we've been alone for the past 3 days#and she's been cooking and I've been cleaning because I can't cook for save my life I literally be starving because I refuse to go to the#kitchen and turn on the stove. anyways she has been feeding me but her dumb ass decided to wash the sheets (I always do the laundry) and to#begin with she didn't know how to turn on the washing machine lmaooo and a couple minutes later I heard some weir noise coming out of the#laundry and asked her if she put something heavy on the machine and she said no. I asked her again and she said she was sure she didn't#when the cycle was over she took out the sheets and her old phone was there 😭 screen completely shattered and I mean DESTROYED#we stood there in complete silence#she's an engineer so it makes this so much worse 😭

-->Aaand then I noticed that the dryer downstairs was busted. *sigh* Fortunately, Victor had just finished up in the greenhouse, so I had him Repairio it, then -- after putting the clothes inside back in the hamper (as they’d for some reason reverted back to “used” mid-drying-cycle -- what’s up with that?) -- upgrade it! Specifically, I had him give it a tungsten drum to stop it breaking so often. It was a long and arduous upgrade, but luckily Kelly was there to give him some absolutely adorable kitty love halfway through. :) Look at her clasping his hand with her paws, awww. . .
-->Meanwhile, I received a notice that another chick was ready to hatch in the chicken coop -- and I decided “you know what, I don’t think Alice has ever hatched a chick. Let’s let her do this one!” And so she did. :) It was just as cute as ever, though I did notice the chick got a bit lost in her hair during the “just hatched’ cuddle. XD Ah well, neither she nor the chick seemed to mind. This should fill up the chicken coop for the time being -- we’ll see how many we have of each type of chicken once they all grow up! (And who will need to be traded or sold. . .)
-->And then -- more pranks! Because Victor hadn’t had a chance to do any pranking yet, and I wanted everyone to at least complete the holiday enough to avoid the sad moodlet. Victor got Smiler with the hand buzzer -- Smiler promptly retaliated with a “noxious cloud” fart. XD I think Victor actually came off the worse in that interaction! Alice joined in to spread some preposterous rumors (”I heard that the next Sims 4 pack will definitely contain cars!”), and Victor got her with “what’s that spot?” XD If you can’t lightly prank the ones you love, then who can you lightly prank?
-->All that mischief made Victor rather hungry, though -- and as leftovers were starting to run a bit low in the fridge, I had him make some new food for him and Alice to enjoy! Specifically, he chopped up his new lettuce and some tomatoes to make some BLTs! A nice tasty sandwich that brought Victor up to Cooking skill level 5, w00. We love to see it!
#sims 4#the lazy save#victor van dort#alice liddell#smiler always#seriously why DOES the laundry revert back to 'used' sometimes if the item it's in breaks down?#I can kind of understand it with the washing machine#but the dryer?#they've already been cleaned they should just be wet#ah well#hopefully the tungsten drum will help avoid this situation entirely!#and yes Alice got to hatch a chick for once awww#so much animal-related cuteness here :)#and LOL I would not want to be on the other side of Smiler's noxious cloud#no matter how musical Sims 4 makes farts XD#and yes Victor could have used Delicioso#but sometimes you actually WANT them to cook#also sometimes I forget he has it#this is true with any spell he has that isn't Repairio#to be fair that is the MOST useful spell he has around here soo#queued

once again. day before compound errand day (laundry and groceries and trash). planned to get everything ready over the course of the day so I wouldn’t be stressed tomorrow. did manage to get some done. but I’d say less than half? and now I’m wiped and I have to get up early and I’m grouchy about it.
#Charlie babbles#also normally friend messages and says she's free and I always plan around that but this time she didn't#so I have to try to figure out how much I can ask cousin to help with#normally her run is just trash with maybe laundry or groceries#hmmph

I know I'm becoming an adult because now sometimes i get bored and just ???? Load up fucking laundry.
#red rambles#the big difference there is that in every other housing situation I've ever been in laundry is constantly being run so me spontaneously#deciding to do MY laundry is always some sort of production#the college laundromats are always full and my dad does an unbelievable amount of laundry because of how many cotton sheets he has to go#through in a day for his job (like ten)#and also my dad is VERY bad at sleeping (much like yours truly) and because I am nocturnal if i do ANYTHING at ANY FUCKING TIME when he is#asleep and he sleeps badly or wakes up at any point it's my fault despite like. the fact that he does this when i'm not home too#so if i run the laundry later than 7pm i'm sabotaging his work day and shit#here we are three people who don't do that much laundry so the washing machines are usually empty#so i can just wash my shit when i feel like it#also tbf it needed to happen. i think i used the wrong dryer sheets so i keep waking up like 'ough i thibk i have couvid' because my throat#and my sinuses hurt so so so bad lmao#but then i walk around for 1.5 minutes and drink anything and i'm fine. so it's just the particles in my bef#bed#so i'm doing my sheets

the irony that is me loving my parents and still them being the two people i am the least honest to and feel the least safe with my secrets
#today was shit#i pray that tomorrow is better#he knows. he understands. he makes me forget. he probably doesnt even know how seen i feel and how much of a breath of air he is to me#he makes me forget when he's nearby even when he's doing nothing and i feel so so safe that he knows#and he's so kind and is so warm-hearted#he is so tender inside and i have seen him cry more than a few times because of things i dont want to mention#and he doesnt push even when he addresses the elephant in the room and i never feel judged#and i only see him thrice a year for a week each time#and those weeks are the highlights of my year#so bizarre how i feel more cared for by someone i barely see rather than the people who raised me#relapsed awfully aggressively when i was months clean and i feel horrible i kept praying for forgiveness. i feel disgusting#mom would it have killed you to just help me#it's been four hours ever since and since then i was distracted by things i had to do but now#then i had to hang the laundry and not having any distractions and being left with my own thoughts made me spiral again#good lord#i just#i wonder if everyone else feels like dying every day like me. she always says that she struggled too and that she stayed up late manytimes#and i know she had it difficult too but our lives have been so different that our childhoods simply can never be compared and i want to#scream and destroy everything but i cant so i can only destroy my own body and im so helpless idk what to do#tw: mental health#i feel so spiteful and i want to show her everything and scream that she did this to me and that it's all her fault#but i love her too much to hurt her like that. it would kill her.#and ig it's all my fault for being a horrible being and for being a failure and turning out ill like this. i just dont know anymore#i think i had an episode of psychotic rage again. everywhere hurts but i still cant get the ugly feeling in me go away

eeaao it hits sooooo fucking hard, the way that joy would search for her mom in every universe and how there's so much hurt there and it feels worse because there's so much love and it feels like betrayal but she keeps trying because who else could ever know what she knows who else could connect to all of her pain and anger and fear and she keeps reaching out only finally stopping when her mom learns how to reach back
joy wants her mom's permission to go, to be let go and no longer connected to her mother so that she loses that hurt but her mother knows how terrible it feels to lose the hurt because the love wilts as well, when your parent lets you go when what you really needed and wanted was their support and she reaches out and she says wait and she says this simple life with you is enough for me, it is a joyous life to me, i want you here just.. eeaao bro
#lynx speaks#eeaao#this movie had me bawling like a baby#how could i not when there's so much love and care put into this?#for a long time i thought i could never live with what my mom did. that there'd never come a day where i wanted to try and forgive her#and then she started reaching back. meeting me where i was. and i didn't even know how to react#i thought i'd always be wanting for her love and i'd never get it because i thought she was too much like her momma#and it's like. she put her foot down and wanted to show me she does love me and she is on my side#in a way that her parents have never and likely will never do#i watched this movie with a friend who couldn't relate at all to the messages of the movie#and i can't imagine that because i'm so deeply tied to all of this and i feel it within the core of my very being#it was like cutting open a wound that had never healed right and putting a soothing balm over it#watching eeaao was like finally mending the holes you swore you'd get around to soon#it's not gonna be pretty but it'll be worth it#and that's what matters#fuck. dude this movie. how the fuck do i go on. i just want to hug my friends. i wanna see my dumb silly family.#i want to do laundry with someone#man...

When I go home after work and immediately do one chore I feel unstoppable. Yes I do lie in bed for hours after that one single task, but it's not the same. It's better.
#misc#the chore in question was doing a laundry machine#im always late on my laundry cause 80% of the time im too drained to do it the week#but little victory#i mean i will have to unload it later but let's not think about that ok#i have so many appointments lately that i have to honour#physio therapist vet etc.#so i don't really have time#and I'm tired as hell#but ironically i feel a bit better mentally#started to 'deep' clean my apartment#now it's gonna take about three years because i clean and order one thing every ten days#and it's a mess#but it's better than nothing#my therapist said to do it slowly so it's ok#also the purpose is to invite someone to come over one day#so it helps me to clean#i always feel so guilty about the cleaning... like i know i am a filth...#but then i listen to news about how the cleaning is done so much more by women in a relationship than men#and i think 'you know what I always feel like shit cause im a woman i wouldn't even care if i was a man'#but then I'm pissed to be like these men™#(you know the ones...)#so it makes me want to get my apartment in shape skkzkzzkzkzkz#only very very slowly
