New project announcement…
Tumblr media
From The Vaults: The Hexley Saga (Not Artemis’s Version)
It’s the 1st of May again, which means it’s my favourite May Queen’s birthday! To celebrate, I’m announcing my new project: a collection of short stories/vignettes set during the Hexley Saga, told from the perspectives of characters other than Artemis.
Who is going to decide what stories go in, and from which characters? Easy — YOU!
If you would like to know about another character’s perspective on a scene, or what they were doing in their own lives whilst Artemis was busy messing around with one of the Vaults, let me know by hitting the ask button and submitting a request.
So far, I have done three of these: Rowan’s version of her first meeting with Artemis, Charlie dealing with the aftermath of the Frog Spawn Soap Incident of 1989, and Jacob’s release from the Portrait Vault. I have two more planned based on prompts from recent ask game/challenges, but aside from that… the ball is in your court!

I got all the jurassic world evolution memos underneath the cut 
-------{{TRUST ISSUES [1/2]}}-------
Participants: Claire Dearing, Ian Malcolm;
[10:07] Claire Dearing:
- Dr. Malcolm?
[10:07] Ian Malcolm:
- Mrs. Dearing, this is quite the pleasure.
[10:08] Claire Dearing:
- I have an extremely confidential issue I'd like to discuss.
[10:08] Ian Malcolm:
- We share so much in common, you and I, having both escaped the islands, and yet we're still somehow still involved with them.
- And besides, I'm intrigued to know the nature of this conversation.
- Discretion is a trait not often associated with me, but for you... I'll make an exception.
- Do go on.
[10:10] Claire Dearing:
- The Foundation just brought in someone new to oversee development of the islands.
[10:10] Ian Malcolm:
- I'm aware, we've been in touch.
[10:11] Claire Dearing:
- That's why I'm reaching out to you, Doctor.
- I'd like you to keep an eye on them.
-------{{VEILED THREAT}}-------
Participants: Henry Wu, Ian Malcolm;
[15:22] Henry Wu:
- Dr. Malcolm.
- Rumour has it that you and this new curator are working some sort of side deal...
[15;22] Ian Malcolm:
- And a good afternoon to you too, Dr. Wu.
[15:22] Henry Wu:
- Is it true?
[15:24] Ian Malcolm:
- Given the right set of circumstances, anything can be true.
- Time and perspective are key variables.
[15:24] Henry Wu:
- That's not a denial.
[15:25] Ian Malcolm:
- On that, you would be correct. Neither is it confirmation.
[15:26] Henry Wu:
- We are both survivors, Dr. Malcolm. But that status doesn't last forever.
- And it can change at any moment.
-------{{MAKING THE IMPOSSIBLE, POSSIBLE}}-------
Participants: Kajal Dua, Ian Malcolm;
[18:42] Kajal Dua:
- Dr. Malcolm.
[18:43] Ian Malcolm:
- Dr. Dua, to what do I owe this honour?
[18:43] Kajal Dua:
- You don't hide your sarcasm very well, Dr. Malcolm.
[18:43] Ian Malcolm:
- Yeah... I wasn't trying.
[18:44] Kajal Dua:
- I know you've questioned my methods in the past, but with this new Director of Operations involved, I've been making good progress on stabilizing my research.
- Whatever you're doing to help them, it's working.
[18:45] Ian Malcolm:
- Which means even more dinosaurs are joining the modern world?
[18:46] Kajal Dua:
- Returning to it, yes.
[18:47] Ian Malcolm:
- Ah, what was once unimaginable has now become possible.
-------{{LISTEN CAREFULLY}}-------
Participants: Ian Malcolm, Owen Grady;
[22:04] Ian Malcolm:
- And Claire told you this?
[22:05] Owen Grady:
- She suspects that Dr. Wu's team is trying to create some weaponized hybrid.
- A hyper-hybrid.
[22:06] Ian Malcolm:
- Why should this concern you, Owen?
- Did you not think that your domestication program was anything more than the first step toward something more... kinetic with the dinosaurs?
[22:07] Owen Grady:
- Look, I know that these animals can be trained. I understand them. You just have to know how to listen.
[22:07] Ian Malcolm:
- It took thirty thousand years of evolution to turn the wolf into the Labrador.
[22:08] Owen Grady:
- So you're saying you won't help?
[22:08] Ian Malcolm:
- I'm saying I'll keep an eye on Dr. Wu.
[22:08] Owen Grady:
- Really? Didn't sound like it.
[22:08] Ian Malcolm:
- Maybe you just have to know how to listen.
-------{{MULTIPLE INCIDENTS}}-------
Participants: George Lambert, Ian Malcolm;
[09:33] George Lambert:
- There have been incidents.
- Multiple incidents.
- And you can assure me that this new Director of Operations isn't involved?
[09:34] Ian Malcolm: 
- To the best of my knowledge.
[09:34] George Lambert:
- And how good is that?
[09:35] Ian Malcolm:
- Better than most.
- Much better actually.
- Isn't sabotage always an on-going concern on the islands?
[09:36] George Lambert:
- Outside threats I can deal with. It's the ones from the inside that worry me.
-------{{MISSING SCIENTISTS [1/2]}}-------
Participants: Kajal Dua, Ian Malcolm;
[14:22] Kajal Dua:
- Dr. Malcolm, we have another incident. I've had two scientists go missing. They've been gone two days now, I believe.
- Lambert went searching for them.
- They'll turn up, eventually.
- One way or the other.
[14:23] Ian Malcolm:
- Yes... the other. I can see how upset you are about this...
[14:24] Kajal Dua:
- Look, everyone here understands that there are certain dangers associated with our work.
[14:24] Ian Malcolm:
- But these scientists weren't working for you, were they?
[14:24] Kajal Dua:
- We are all part of a team...
-------{{THE WATCHER}}-------
Participants: Ian Malcolm, Cabot Finch;
[12:57] Ian Malcolm:
- I don't control them, Cabot. I only offer advice.
[13:01] Cabot Finch:
- So your new charge isn't spying on me, then?
[13:01] Ian Malcolm:
- Far as I can tell, you've been watching them.
[13:02] Cabot Finch:
- I watch everyone.
-------{{A BROKEN SEAL}}-------
Participants: George Lambert, Ian Malcolm;
[15:46] George Lambert:
- It was Dr. Wu. And as far as I can tell, Dr. Dua. They've been hatching this plan for a while.
[15:46] Ian Malcolm:
- Hatching... yes. The, uh, perfect way to describe it.
[15:47] George Lambert:
- That hybrid is too dangerous to be anywhere other than the islands.
[15:48] Ian Malcolm:
- And it's too dangerous for the islands as well.
[15:50] George Lambert:
- So what do we do?
[15:52] Ian Malcolm:
- We wait.
- It is only a matter of time until it bites the hand that feeds it.
- Then we will know where to look.
-------{{HYBRID RESURGENCE}}-------
Participants: Claire Dearing, Ian Malcolm;
[09:42] Claire Dearing:
- Are you seeing this?
- Did you know about this?
[09:42] Ian Malcolm:
- I'm going to, need a little help here...
[09:43] Claire Dearing:
- The research into hybrids. It's happening again.
[09:43] Ian Malcolm:
- Okay.
[09:43] Claire Dearing:
- Okay?
- It's not okay, Malcolm.
[09:44] Ian Malcolm:
- I was acknowledging that I'm aware of the program. Not that I approve.
- Which, I don't have the power to do anyway.
- Nor would I want it.
[09:44] Claire Dearing:
- But this new Director of Operations you've been counselling, they're part of this research.
[09:45] Ian Malcolm:
- The security Division has always been a bit of a misnomer, if you will. We all know what they're really interested in.
- Pretending to be naive isn't your strong suit, Claire.
[09:45] Claire Dearing:
- As always, it's the blind leading the blind.
[09:46] Ian Malcolm:
- Correction. It's the blinded by ambition leading the blinded by greed.
- Present company excluded, of course.
-------{{WHERE IT ALL BEGAN}}-------
Participants: Ian Malcolm, Isaac Clement;
[16:22] Ian Malcolm:
- You are really doing it, aren't you?
[16:23] Isaac Clement:
- People are hungry for nostalgia.
[16:23] Ian Malcolm:
- Hungry, yes.
- Interesting.
- Appropriate.
[16:24] Isaac Clement:
- Hey, maybe this could be part of our marketing campaign.
- "Are you hungry for the past?"
[16:24] Ian Malcolm:
- Oh, I wish you wouldn't.
[16:25] Isaac Clement:
- Too soon, huh?
[16:26] Ian Malcolm:
- No, it's just, well... on Isla Nublar, the past is hungry for you.
-------{{ON SCHEDULE}}-------
Participants: Kajal Dua, Henry Wu;
[11:25] Kajal Dua:
- Things are proceeding as scheduled. This new Director of Operations seems to be on task.
[11:28] Henry Wu:
- That's good to hear.
- I'd say we are less than ten years ahead of the competition, and we're losing that advantage faster than I'd like.
[11:29] Kajal Dua:
- Then stable hybrids are the best shot we have to remain on top.
[11:29] Henry Wu:
- Correct. I've heard rumours a revitalised Biosyn has some significant investors behind it.
[11:30] Kajal Dua:
- That's concerning.
[11:30] Henry Wu:
- Maybe. Or maybe we need to find out how much they'd be willing to pay to get back in the game.
-------{{A CLOSE BOND}}-------
Participants: Ian Malcolm, Owen Grady;
[21:33] Ian Malcolm:
- You know I don't get involved with corporate politics.
- It's too chaotic.
[21:33] Owen Grady:
- I'm not worried about me, Malcolm.
- I'm a survivor.
[21:35] Ian Malcolm:
- Something I allow myself to also take some pride in.
[21:36] Owen Grady:
- It's her.
[21:36] Ian Malcolm:
- Claire?
[21:36] Owen Grady:
- Blue.
[21:37] Ian Malcolm:
- Oh. Yes, of course.
[21:37] Owen Grady:
- Masrani Global had a plan.
- And it didn't die with Simon.
[21:38] Ian Malcolm:
- Man is mortal.
- Ideas can last forever.
[21:38] Owen Grady:
- Blue's basically the apex of the apex now.
- And with Ingen needing new sources of income, they're going to try creating a lot more of her.
- That's my guess anyway.
[21:39] Ian Malcolm:
- You're worried that they'll take her away from you?
[21:39] Owen Grady:
- She doesn't belong to me.
- But, yes.
[21:40] Ian Malcolm:
- Owen, you realise that what you and Blue have, however you want to define it, is unnatural, right?
- This is a relationship that shouldn't exist.
[21:40] Owen Grady:
- So you're siding with them?
[21:41] Ian Malcolm:
- No, I'm on the fence.
[21:41] Owen Grady:
- Malcolm, you and I both know from personal experience that fences don't last forever.
-------{{INTERNAL CONCERNS}}-------
Participants: George Lambert, Ian Malcolm;
[11:13] George Lambert:
- As crazy as it sounds, I'm convinced that some of this sabotage is being perpetrated by in-house actors.
[11:15] Ian Malcolm:
- Doesn't sound that crazy to me.
[11:16] George Lambert:
- Yeah, maybe.
- It's happened before.
[11:17] Ian Malcolm:
- That's, not a question, is it?
- Because, yes, it has.
[11:17] George Lambert:
- Why?
[11:18] Ian Malcolm:
- Motive and opportunity.
- And passion.
- Oh, and one other thing... the new Director of Operations.
- They're proving things can be done differently.
- Success, can be threatening to certain individuals.
[11:18] George Lambert:
- That sounds like something Hammond would say.
[11:19] Ian Malcolm:
- Hmm... yes, it does.
- And as much as I disagreed with the man, I'll take it as a compliment.
-------{{TRUST ISSUES [2/2]}}-------
Participants: Ian Malcolm, Claire Dearing;
[10:11] Ian Malcolm:
- Trust issues, is it now?
[10:11] Claire Dearing:
- Now and always.
- You know my concern is the well-being of the dinosaurs.
- Those animals have rights that need to be protected.
[10:11] Ian Malcolm:
- Rights, Ms. Dearing?
- These animals shouldn't even be, well, anything.
[10:12] Claire Dearing:
- Chaos theory says otherwise, doesn't it, Doctor?
[10:12] Ian Malcolm:
- Ah... perhaps you've been paying attention to my reports after all.
[10:12] Claire Dearing:
- Look, we both care about the same things.
[10:12] Ian Malcolm:
- Do we?
[10:13] Claire Dearing:
- Yes. I believe we do. In fact, I know we do.
- And someone is up to something on the islands.
- What and why is my interest here.
- Maybe this new person is the problem. Or maybe they can help us idenitfy who is.
[10:14] Ian Malcolm:
- Well, if the problem is me, then this whole plan... scheme... of yours has already failed.
[10:15] Claire Dearing:
- Well... has it?
[10:16] Ian Malcolm:
- No.
[10:17] Claire Dearing:
- Good. I'll be in touch again.
- Soon.
-------{{MISSING SCIENTISTS [2/2]}}-------
Participants: Ian Malcolm, Kajal Dua;
[14:25] Ian Malcolm:
- A team, yes. You and Dr. Wu. History repeating itself. I've seen this all before.
- First, the disappearances.
- Then the hunting...
[14:25] Kajal Dua:
- Look, if... and that's a big if... if Dr. Wu created a new hybrid, your Director of Operations helped him. So we're all in this together.
[14:25] Ian Malcolm:
- And then comes the running.
- And the biting.
- And the dying.

The one where he wears a clown nose during a kiss scene :')
I miss the era where there'd be outtakes to animated movies like toy story or early 2000s barbie movies that shit was hilarious and so wholesome

in the past 48 hours kendrick lamar has:
used a picture, apparently taken inside of drake's house, showing various medications including ozempic (which drake has dissed other people for taking!) prescribed under drake's legal name, as cover art for a single
implied that members of drake's entourage are acting as his informants
claimed he would be a better role model to adonis, drake's son whose existence was publicized via a previous rap beef, than drake is
claimed that drake also has an eleven-year old daughter that he's been hiding, and likely other illegitimate children
claimed that drake and his entourage are part of a sex trafficking ring
said drake should die so women can be safe
called drake a colonizer who appropriates black american culture
directly called drake and his entourage pedophiles

From the book Organizing Solutions for People with ADHD:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Putting a coat on the back of a chair by the door is fine, but if you prefer, use coat hooks and a large catch-all basket for dropping keys, hats, gloves.
Small bookcase end-table next to the couch to store craft projects, books, and other things being worked on for easy access.
Add a storage unit near the dining room table to transition between eating and working there.
Daily toiletry items should be stored in a basket that you can move easily
Extra toiletries and medicine cabinet items go in open shelf/basket storage so they can be seen and used easily. If items no longer fit, purge the excess. Don't obscure the view!
If you disrobe in the bathroom, place a tall hamper in there.
Keep a set of cleaning supplies in each bathroom
Tumblr media
Edit: I also have this post on budgeting with ADHD + feel free to check my tags, coz I am trying to remember to tag as needed for this stuff. :)

Apparently this needs to be said so
Forgetting things is morally neutral! Memory issues are morally neutral!
You're not a bad person if you...
forget things quickly
forget people
can't remember entire stages of your life
can't remember important things
can remember some things very well and forget other things all the time
can't remember things (or anything!) about your interests
forget to eat, sleep, go to the bathroom, etc
forget to reply to texts
remember things and immediately forget them again
can't remember birthdays, events, etc
frequently answer 'I forgot' to questions
can't retain new information
forget things you used to know
only remember things when it's too late
have vague, distorted and/or unreliable memories
depend on others to know how an event you were in played out
have other symptoms that are worsened by memory issues and vice versa
... and anything else I might have missed!
