So cool that you know!! I'd love to take a class /gen

However, would he even be Sisyphus if he wasn't so self absorbed? I kind of gathered that it was his whole thing; in the way that he lacks even the empathy to care for how he impacts others so long as he gets his way, which eventually is exactly what he got (lol i love that bit).

The way I interpreted your implication is that if he reached out, he wouldn't have continued his terrible plots, and I love the idea of rehabilitating a formerly condemned character and i do believe we need to hold more space for that in the real world, but to do that, doesn't the individual need at the very least to even see their own fault and want the change?

I'm not a scholar in the topic so please correct me if I've been so heavily mistaken this whole time, but to all I've learnt thus far, Sisyphus simply lacked any of those requirements for redemption, becoming essentially an early example of a villain with antisocial personality disorder.

If your point is just that he wouldn't have done that if he was more community minded, then sure, I agree ! But I also think that at that point, it changes the story on such a fundamental level that it'd be a whole different thing - at that point I feel like there's gotta be other, better examples that could've been used, especially considering how many people arent familiar with that background for the story. (unless thats like the thing for your whole blog in which case, ignore that bit cause your post came to me by chance, didnt know/look deeper, my bad /nm /gen)

listen to me. listen. your actual job in life, and it sucks that your 5th grader teacher didnt explain this adequately enough, is to ask for help when you need it and to accept charity when it would take a weight from your shoulders. Otherwise you end up like Sisyphus- or even worse, Walter White

I dont have a lot of sensory issues but i have eaten many many sandwiches. Im usually very turkey & mayo, but i have had some very interesting combinations.

The nicest thing about a sandwich is that you can put anything you like on it, really.

Chicken nuggets? They're just a chicken patty split up. Add a lil mayo or ketchup and that counts as a sandwich.

Hotdog? cut into circles on bread. Put ketchup. Done.

I like carrots, so ive had carrots cut up on sandwiches. Or shredded.

Ive had potato salad on sandwiches too, but if they dont like inconsostent texture then maybe go for something thats really blended or in the food processor. Its just another option for like... a spread to go with something.

Also applesauce as a spread/sauce. Thats very wet tho so use sparingly.

Hummus is pretty consistent in texture and has protein which can help balance out a diet. Could also try with cucumber or diced red peppers.

Worth noting that theres chocolate hummus which sounds gross at first but it kind of just tastes like brownie batter. But pricey for an all the time food but maybe a treat.

Peanutbutter & apple - idk if peanutbutter works for them, and bananas seem like they may have too much mush going on, but apples cut in slices as if they were a lunchmeat/cheese has worked for me.

Creamcheese also. I've also done creamcheese & cucumber, creamcheese & salami.

Also strawberry creamcheese and strawberries was a pretty good one.

Egg...has a strong smell and not everyone likes the flavor or texture, but if you can get a consistent scrambled egg texture then egg sandwiches maybe. My dad used to mix em, add a little bit of water, and microwave them for 1 minute on like 80% power. A lot of people mock me for the microwegg, but it works and it comes out pretty much the same every time if you have one standard method.

If cucumber for crunch & moisture: beansprout or water chestnut could work. Imo the tastes arent too overpowering and they add the same kind of texture, for me. However! Beansprouts are stringier and water chestnuts are... a little wet.

In the other direction: spinach (not cooked) could be too close to lettuce, but i always found that it had a more consistently dry texture. I feel like it goes bad friggin within Days but also you could try putting that in a bananabread or banana muffin (you like. Food processor it in and it makes it a little spongy but it doesnt taste like spinach. Also its super green)

Have heard good things about spam, though its very salty and too close to ham for me. If ham texture gets to them tho and not ham taste, there's that.

Could try also sausage patties but like watch for whether the brand adds anything spicy.

I mean to be fair- i once put leftover lomein on a sandwich and ate that but like... There is no law saying you cant. And if you have something you know you will eat then putting it on bread to eat it makes it a sandwich regardless of anyone else's opinion.

Anyway good luck op! If there are other safe foods that they havent tried on a sandwich, see if you can find a way to use those things in a sandwich- theres a lot of substitutions you can make.

HI IMPORTANT QUESTION PLEASE ANSWER AND REBLOG

My child is working on expanding their safe foods and wants to try more sandwiches. The issue is there's so much potential with sandwiches that like, where do you start? So they're stuck on the same ones (cheese, cheese + cucumber, jam) (due to my own autism I am not much of a sandwich eater so I'm not much help)

We would love it if you could tell us your favourite sandwiches! No lettuce, mushroom, poultry, ham, bacon or non-cheddar cheese (or something adaptable if it includes those)

I think the most baffling thing about the Tulpar as a vessel to me is the fact that the ship really did only have a one way communication system.

I know it was cheap but even the most basic of vessels regarding major transport would have some way, shape or form for outside communication. Not only that but there was absolutely no form of innate emergency signal to show they may have been offline or in trouble despite clearly having a system to dock credits if they went off course. It's another factor that really shows that bad situations are made to get worse by design. One person who is required to relay all information to the crew and make all the choices without feedback. No way to update or call for help in case of a dire situation. No way to inform of inner personal conflicts and acquire procedures accordingly.

It really is like they are all in some sort of fucked up solitary confinement. They have their own world with strict roles that are meaningless in the end, as long as the cargo makes it, it doesn't matter what happens on that ship to the company. They don't want to hear anything and will come to conclusions on what happened based on how much pay they can withhold from the workers. Even what they do send is short, sterile and corporate to the extent it was likely written and sent out with a command by some random unmanned computer in an office.

There's something to be said about how unfair it is to force absolute power and control onto one person when you as an entity could do so much more to offload it but I've said it many times before so I won't again.

honestly about to go through my villain arc. employers will go on and on about being inclusive of people with disabilities but still require standing for jobs that can be done sitting down, or a job description will say "walking" "on your feet" etc and not specify whether or not wheelchair usage counts for that by their standards. sometimes it feels like wheelchair users are expected to all be geniuses who can afford to go through years of college, as if to make up for our disabilities. it isnt fair and i just fucking want to survive in a world thats stacked against me and people like me

I hate that whenever there's a gay ship, people immediately het-ify it. people are so obsessed with making one the "man" and one the "woman" when that's completely unnecessary, because they are both the man or the woman. It's extremely annoying. these people will completely mischaracterize a character to fit into their stupid little het roles they force on them.

for example, you don't need to make one man the "wife" and feminized him to the extreme and fit him in a traditional "woman" role so the other man can be the big strong masculine manly man. they can both be masculine or both be feminine or both be both at the same time! they do NOT need to be gendered opposites to fit het roles. crazy, I know! it's like no one considers it a possibility! or sees how good it can be to have them be equals without gendered nonsense.

when there's a gay relationship, you have the perfect opportunity for the couple to stand on equal ground. they get to be equals who are just as strong and just as soft as each other. there's no faulty power dynamics where one is above the other (because let's face it, society unfortunately deems masculinity > femininity). one doesn't need to protect the other. they can protect themsleves, fight aide by side as equals. one doesn't do all the housework. they share that duty equally. one isn't weak and pretty, while they other strong and manly. they both are strong and pretty, or masculine and weak at the same time.

equal relationships are amazing and need to be explored more and appreciated. there can be more understanding and working together. i'm bad at explaining what I mean, but I prefer these equal relationships over forcing them into opposite roles to mirror het relationships, which are usually extremely unbalanced and unequal. especially because these not het relationships! so why must they look like one? they can and should look different! so why does literally every shipper and writer out there make them so het coded?

I don't understand why people do this. do they actually believe all romantic relationships must mimic het ones to exist and thrive and purposely force that on them? or have they genuinely just not fathamed that they can be different and dont need to follow the expected het standards?

I wonder, it feels like no one actually knows how non-het relationships are meant to be and how they could work, since het ones are always forced down our throats since birth. it becomes The Standard that everyone thinks they must follow. maybe it's all people know since they don't see any other possibilities. their preferred dynamics for their ships are what we are taught and nothing different, because they don't know it can be different. i also think people might be obsessed with that whole "opposites attract" trope. but that opposite doesn't have to be the traditional het-fueld feminine vs masculine or wife vs husband characteristics. it can be other personality things like one is loud and one is quiet, one is dumb and one is overly smart, one is rich and one poor, etc. it doesn't have to be masculine vs feminine!

BREAK OUT OF THE HET NORMS!!!!! TEAR DOWN HETERONORMATIVITY!!!!!!!!! FREE THE GAYS

(disclaimer, not saying masculine vs feminine ships are all bad/shouldn't be done ever. but it doesn't need to be 100% of the time either 😅 can't think of one ship people dont do this with lol)

[pezpenser205]

the main reason i know im not femme in the slightest is bc i cant comprehend why anyone would Ever want to be feminine. i can understand neutral leaning fem, but the idea that people are born wanting to be feminine is appalling to me personally because femininity always felt like imprisonment and torture. it was and still is a restraint. a training weight i was forced to bear. i cant fully empathize or understand anyone who wants to be more feminine because i have never and will never want to be more feminine out of anything other than pressure or insecurity. im most comfortable being gender neutral, hairy and disgusting in old gym shorts and stained tshirts no matter how much insecurity it causes me. i dont care. im never dressing up all pretty for anyone elses benefit ever again. and i assume this is how people who want to be feminine feel about masculinity to some extent. if thats the case im super glad we could trade because holy moly

OKAY RANT ON VIVZIEPOP SCROLL PAST IF YOU DONT CARE

--------------------

I like Viv as an artist, shes inspired me since frickin middleschool with her animations, character designs, and now 2 shows holy crap. I just really wish she'd get off social media for her own mental health cuz good god it's not great to see a whole thread of tweets arguing with someone about the dislike of fanfiction having homophobic undertones its just... agdhdh Viv is a pretty controversial person due to unfortunate past events and having shows that present some darker subject matter. Honestly? I want to see Viv not just move past the previous controversy, but learn from it to be better. Its totally fair tho if you think the handling of certain topics arent done well, there are things people will have preference over. And I dont give a fuck about shipping, I dont wanna see it, frankly. If you're doin somethin shady with it and I see it I'm certainly not going to like it and I'll do my best to not interact with you, but I think we should make tagging things just a common thing? Keeps things organized and people can intake what they want while the stuff they dont want is not being shown to them. Same goes with headcanons they're someone imagining something, they arent holding the creators hostage to make it canon. Canon is silly anyways! Both the OG and a headcanon can exist because AUs and headcanons are just another version of the thing. Headcanons arent going to change the episodes, they'll still be the same way the creators made it. So like... chill.

Just as long as it has no mental or physical negative implications or intent against actual living people I will add.

Dont harrass actors because they play a villian you need to separate fiction and reality it's literally their job to pretend to be someone else.

i have and still do think its extremely weird how many people have an immediate negative gut reaction to fur and to hunting in general, especially occurring even more negatively the less they know about it. like.

even just disregarding the fact that an animal being hunted is one of the most sustainable things available to most people nowadays, with the animal being killed as fast as possible in a way that utilizes as much of their body as possible, in a way that produces very little waste, when basically every hunter i know are some of the most ecologically conscientious and green-minded people you can find — the fur and leather and bone itself is one of the few things you can actually feel Connected to anymore.

like i look at the other stuff they promote and so many "green products" and i still can't tell where they're from or how they were produced or even entirely what went into making them. none of my furs are like that. i often talked to the person who hunted and skinned and tanned the hide, who sewed the hat or the bag or the coat, i can identify and pick out the exact animal who gave its life for it and know them very intimately, and for an incredibly long amount of time, long enough that most of what i have was passed down to me from my family. like these are the opposites of fast fashion in every respect, im usually excited to be able to break out my otter or raccoon hat when winter comes around, i come back to my buffalo bags over and over.

i'm often very uncomfortable when they're described as "luxury items" as well for that reason - they're often just priced accordingly to the time and effort that goes into them and will last just as long as the price tag implies. animal fur and leather are the very first materials humans had available to them. it's not any different than going to a craft show and buying a knitted hat from a grandma for me, except that i know the full history of how all that material was acquired in the first place and that it won't be sat aside or forgotten under anything else. it's very hard, even when you just have one fur hat, to not make the full use out of it, that you want to and it occupies a position of respect. hell, fur isn't even "in" for rich people anymore, it's increasingly gone out of fashion for them and has shown up less and less over time.

i don't know. it's very weird to see everyone has a weird gut reaction to seeing fur or discussing hunting, in a way that has never correlated to anything i've actually experienced.

[misanthropicdoe]

people who are extremely emotionally repressed and incapable of expressing their feelings are most of the time only capable of feeling and expressing anger, irritation and bitterness. and they HATE seeing people who openly express all of their feelings and emotions, and are emotionally intelligent enough to understand the complexity of emotions. they absolutely hate them and it evokes such irritation and anger within them, because even if they dont understand it themselves, they are envious of ppl who dont take emotions so seriously or see it is being weak.

Nothing like lying in bed sick w a bad cold and having gender thoughts 😂😭
