phil calling 2010 him and dan “two tiny gays” when they were fully 6’3” men has the same energy as me calling myself a “little white girl” on the daily when i’m taller than most men i know and can casually carry my 65 pound dog up and down a staircase
#dnp 🤝 me just little guys (giants)#dnp#dan and phil#phan#dan howell#daniel howell#amazingphil#phil lester#danisnotonfire#yeet my deenp#yeet my deet#to be clear i have no stamina#like i’m not fit or swole or anything#i’m just Strong and Tall lmao#i get out of breath walking up the stairs and i’m constantly in pain#probably bc being strong and not fit means i constantly lift shit that is in fact too heavy and that no one should be lifting my themselves#my little chicken arms may be able to lift shit but that doesn’t mean they should#tw body type discussion#maybe?#could be triggering to ppl with eds? or body dysmorphia?

i love being black and transsexual !!
#wore a binder at work today for the first time and it felt sooooooo good holy shit#i have been too scared to bind at work cause my job does involve physical labor and i feel like people are always like#do not exercize while binding or you will explode and die. yknow. so i was kinda scared cause idk what counts as exercize ??#like its just lifting heavy shit occasionally but idk. i was scared. but like. i just could not stand not binding anymore like it was bad#and idk. i felt really good today!!! like. wayyy less drained than usual?? which is maybe due to other things#but idk. had a good day overall.

One of my goals for this year was to get more buff and I thought my arms were getting bigger but I was worried it might just be my imagination but no I have stretch marks on my biceps it is happening
#I want to be a beefy chubby butch that can protect my friends + family#I want to feel I can defend/intimidate people if needed#and when ppl are like wow that’s too heavy I can’t lift that I can say ‘allow me’ and gallantly carry their shit#it’s just so nice to get confirmation that I’m making progress I’m really proud#I don’t have a routine or go to a gym this is all from my job / exercising in my apartment#the gym is fine but it’s so boring to me I’d rather bike for an hour or something instead then exercise at home#anyway the ideal situation for me is I find a beefy butch and we fall in love and work out together though#p

you guys wouldn’t believe me if i told you how badly my move yesterday went 😭
#the van man came and everything fitted which was good#(though i had to do all the heavy lifting and him none 🙄)#we had to divert to collect some stuff from cardiff#and that had to be delivered to sheffield#and after that guy took half an hour to fucking come home to receive his shit we were off again#and at this point van man has revealed himself as a conspiracy theorist#and then a burning smell#and then the power steering went#he coaxed the van to the service station#only to realise the tensioner (?) is completely shorn#so he tries to bodge it back together#at which point i call my mom#and my brother drives to help me (from 1.5 hours distance away)#we get as much of my stuff in his jazz as we can#and then i have to beg dad to drive the same distance in his car to get the rest#all the while this guy is trying to use cord and gaffa tape to make the van go#and his solution was for my stuff to be taken back to his in lincolnshire#mark the job as ‘complete’ and then drive it up in his wife’s car#and just trust him that i’d receive my stuff by friday#like um :/#and then he’s on the phone talking to his partner abt reporting the thing as stolen#god.#all the while the main motorway has been shut so dad is being led on a wild goose chase by google maps#suffice to say when he finally rolled up i’ve never been more glad

Welp, my hair is falling out again.
#sort of fucking sick of having everything go to shit#my skin and my reflux have been problems#my new office at work is claustrophobic and depressing#nothing has been going my way and it’s all these little things#on top of the big thing that is the illness#I just want to eat normal food and care for myself like a normal person#I just want to be able to take care of my body but I can’t#because taking care of my illness means neglecting normal human things#shoulder your burdens well belore’dorei is doing a lot of heavy fucking lifting for me right now#I can’t even cry without risking hives

one thing i will never get over is when i went to my back doctor and i asked him about my constant severe back and shoulder pain and he was just like "oh! well that's weird. can't do anything about it. sorry ! :) we'll never see you again btw !" and then just fucking diagnosed me with chronic back pain and chronic shoulder pain and called it a day
#chronic disorder#chronic illness#chronic pain#maddie speaks#i had scoliosis for a while but it wasn't too severe#and during my last appointment he just said that my shoulder pain had nothing to do with my back and nothing looked wrong#and there was nothing they could do about my constant severe back and shoulder pain. which just pissed me off.#all he told me is that my future children could suffer from the same shit i do and to just keep that in mind#and also just to take doing daily tasks easy- especially if it included moving my body a lot and reaching for things and holding things#and to just like. let other people help me with heavy lifting. i mean i throw out my back whenever i bend over or pick up something even#SLIGHTLY heavy. so.

nothing like a typing test to lift the spirits
#i might still not have the fucking essay half done but i just scored 118wpm qwerty on monkeytype 30 second test with 96%acc#^ btw typing tests r mostly bullshit and theyre not an accurate measure of how fast u type in practice#they often include only common/basic words and lack both punctuation and coherant word patterns#additionally it only measures how quickly you can replicate written word#when i know that personally a lot of the drag on my typing speed is composing sentences in my head or processing audio#like using stenography methods a lot of people reach speeds of 220+wpm (the average speed a person talks)#but even if i learned plover (something i have all the equipment to do but i havent sat down n done yet)#i doubt id be able to become a court stenographer or other such thing bcos of how autism slows down my audio processing#so i would need to attend to That and improve it greatly and i do not know if that is possible#and also like i have no urgent need to transcribe real-time dialogue its just an interest thing#but yknow!#anywho i probs need to practice dvorak more and get good at that before i crack into stenography#last i checked i was like 23wpm without reference if i attempted accuracy (using a typing test with punctuation and sentence structure)#which is like. dogshit. but it wont get better if i dont practice ig#okkkk from now on im going dvorak mode except for schoolwork and im not allowed 2 get mad#ok there we go i switched over yay#i'm both better and worse than i expected#muscle memory is doing so much heavy lifting re: where letters n shit are#but its still a little agonising

long story short i was finally able to get someone to cut the bolt off this stopsign i got so the sign could come off the pole and i could throw it somewhere in my room
so now i also have a. pole connected to a big lump of concrete as well
. for reference it got hit by a car and already knocked down so with some help i. carried it all the way home for keepsies
for now it's just propped against the mannequin i got out of a dumpster next to the traffic cone i got off the side of the road<3
youtube
#barking and foaming at the mouth#they replaced it like a few years ago i've been trying to get this bolt off for a while#that was when i wasn't supposed to be lifting heavy shit because i could like. die too#. i needed the stop sign ok.#i also have a Do Not Block Road sign that blew down during a storm that i snuck home down the back of my pants#im that meme that's like. your unemployed friend at 11am on a tuesday. just up doing fuck knows what at all times#Youtube

I am exhausted.
#i slept in until 11:30 today. which is bad.#im moving tomorrow. im not prepared at all whatsoever#thats a lie. im semi-prepared#but not enough to move tomorrow#and certainly not enough to afford to sleep in until 11:30#im about to have a fucking breakdown#i have heavy shit to lift and no one to help me so i dont know how im going to get it out of my apartment#like my huge fucking dresser and my mattress#i dont know how im going to do this by myself. i dont know how im going to do this#and i really dont have the energy. clearly#tomorrow i have to have all my shit packed and get out of the apartment by 3:30pm#thats not a lot of time#in fact i have no time#for anything#i can tell that im going to have a full fucking breakdown tomorrow#im gonna take a vyvanse and hope thatll carry me through#if i stop posting its because ive died#just dropped dead from the stress#on the bright side today is my last day of work!!!!!!!#thank god#this is gonna be the longest shift od my fucking life. but when its done its done!!#wish me luck. keep me in your prayers

oh i had a question for you guys actually -
"visibility" in this meaning like how well can you see intentional details that are in the dark i.e. the first figure below isnt just largely a black void to you etc (brightened pic on right for reference)
#not art#ignore the shit quality i just took a screenshot of a zoomed out wip canvas of the prev work#im just curious bc i can see the little details fine on my laptop but on my phone its just a dark void#which i dont mind for this piece bc obv i want it to be obfuscated a lot lol thats the point#and if i use a lot of dark colors i try to make it not look like completely incomprehensible on mobile before i post but you know#i do wonder if it's like prevalent bc sometimes on my pc monitor its also hard to see some stuff bc the contrast is higher/more vibrant...#like do you guys have to turn the brightness up to max to see something and then you briefly blind yourself lol. i dont want that...#i want some stuff to be a secret or obfuscated but i dont want it to be like a weird dark spot or anything like that#its not so much an issue on illustrations like this bc the outline does the heavy lifting but in portraits etc thats way harder to achieve#anyway. let me knoww.... <3

#I may have overdone it today but it’s okay cause I had a really fun day#I did the most walking since surgery today and I spent most of it doubled over laughing#ran into my one friend at community day and once again we are a menace together#I think I’m struggling a bit because I usually do 20000 to 25000 steps a day on average at my job and I’m lugging around heavy shit#and like im just not good at sitting still and recovering#I did a little under 9000 steps today and oooof I’m sore now#I’ve been off the pain meds since a week after surgery but I had to take one#my weight lifting restriction is nothing heavier than a gallon of milk#which I googled and is 8lbs#I miss being able to pick up my cat#but I had my post op a few days back and the doctor says Im healing really well and bounced back fast considering how bad the endo was#but idk… going a little insane still I guess#like I have chronic fatigue so and I’m used to being tired all the time and just powering through it#but healing is a different sort of tired and this has a long ass recovery period#normally I take a day trip to the beach for my birthday but I didn’t think I was up for it yet#really glad I didn’t I think I’d be dying right about now#but I also really miss the ocean so possibly going in like two or three weeks#someone yeet me into the sea that’ll fix everything#lol I’m rambling#it’s time for bed I say when I know full well I’m going to be up for like 3 more hours#if you see me online no u didn’t

I've been gaining my curiosity back which is nice
#like the inherent striving for wonder#yknow#it's so powerful when it's brought to heavy situations#it lifts some of the heaviness#it brings something else to live beside the despair#in harmony#when shit sucks. and also when it doesnt suck as hard#im just saying shit#i think the ketamine is working chat#txt
