"What's your pot of gold moment in Wizard101 or Pirate101? Share with the community what happened and how they can achieve such riches!"

I have yet to achieve my *true* pot-of gold-moment in Pirate101, which would be obtaining a Haywire Armada Companion (100+ packs opened so far and no luck there), but I'll settle for when I got the Pocket Dutchman mount, which goes INCREDIBLE with my Pirate's Halloween theme.

I actually don't remember getting it, but my brother says I got the drop on a free code after it first came out. You can get it from the Pirate Nightmare Pack!

we do not know and might not ever know the full story behind mania and the circumstances under which it was produced but we know enough by now to understand that there was a lot of strife and frustration involved in the way it came about. the band has been clear on this much. the divisive reception upon release didn't help any. and we know the last time that happened with folie, it led to that record essentially being forgotten and aggressively sidelined for years afterward. the roughness of its reception was explicitly one of the things that patrick especially cited as difficult for him to look back on, and one of the reasons it took so long for him to embrace those songs again.

it took mania five years what took folie a full hiatus and double that time.

this too is healing.

Rory has been trending a little bun-obsessed lately, probably because we have lots of bunnies in our condo complex and she has to practice a lot of impulse control as she can't chase or really fixate on them, so I've been looking for ways to help her fulfill her bunny-murder urges safely.

Unfortunately we don't have a ton of areas I comfortable coursing her (letting her chase buns until she can't see them or catches them) because our bunnies are mostly urban animals BUT I was at the bougie pet store for unrelated reasons and they had dried rabbit feets which gave me an idea!

I bought a few and got some paper bags and put Rory in another room while I hid them around the apartment to sniff out, destroy, and eat. I figured it would satisfy some of her murder urges, even if it's not the whole predation sequence.

She was pretty happy about it! I'll try to add this to our rotation of enrichment activities and maybe get a few rabbit feet to chuck at her outdoors sometimes. Hopefully it'll help vent those bunny frustrations so they don't build up and hurt my good dog behaviours.

stuck thinking about when day gets crowded and overwhelmed on his birthday he calls out to gee of all people there to remove him from the situation; and how when day tells her he wants to be alone she makes sure he knows she wants to understand him and he can talk to her (not to help him or to fix things for him; simply to understand him) and when day reaffirms a boundary she accepts this and doesn't press further. he's her friend and she cares for him but he's still an adult and she has no problem treating him as such and i think that at the moment she is the only one from day's past who is actively able to do so

Melatonin is a delicate balancing act, it took some time to find a dose that helped me fall and stay asleep without leaving me groggy after 8/10 hours. For me, that has been 10 mg gradually increased to such over a few weeks then steady since.

I also take roughly a week without it every month or two, as the bottle recommends. Listen to your body and do what you can. Good luck, and thank you for the sweet gay were/pire comic<3

Yeah, I can tell my sweet zone is somewhere between 3 and 6 mg, at least right now. Or at least I think it is. Admittedly my sleep has been absolutely horrible since I was a kid so my standards on "not tired" are pretty low, so I'm not actually sure if they're any good right now. All I know is I'm getting more than 2 hours of sleep at a time, and I'm not spending every waking moment fighting off a nap!

Thanks for the confirmation I've gotta test with it and go off and on and such, my doc didn't give me a straight answer on that (he just kept saying take it as needed... I need it every night!!!). 75% of the time being good is way better than 0% so I'll take what I can get!

And the gay comics are the least I can do 🧡 thank you for reading it!

i just wanted to say that we're mutuals on my other account and i followed this blog when you first mentioned it and its been really refreshing to actually see a viewpoint on did that actually helps me a lot.

i think the focus on the exact identity of a part versus on what they need or want (and each part being treated like a new stranger imposing on someone else's life..) has been making things really difficult for me for a long tim and has been largely unproductive if not actively counterproductive in terms of healing.

im still not sure exactly what i want out of treatment when im able to get it but it did clear up a lot of what i don't want and i think that's a good step forward. sorry if any of that is weird to say but i did just want to thank you and i hope today is a little kinder to you

aha! the person from my notifs earlier today with the pretty blog. thank you!!

im glad my approach to did has been helpful. im also on this journey of figuring out what works and doesnt for me, and ive definitely internalised a lot of unhealthy approaches in the past that im actively trying to unlearn, so im really glad i can help others do the same

best of luck with your recovery journey too! i hope you figure out what you want and achieve it. have a wonderful day

well the restocking situation isn't such a disaster that I couldn't rectify it with an hour or so of work. the shoulder rolls and saw blades...we need that. and and boot covers. I should make a list of stuff to call for instead of posting about it on tumblr.com but I'm back tonight. worst comes to worst I know where to get that stuff or how to make it. and I'm tired...

I have unexpectedly gained what may potentially be full responsibility for 6-8 hours tomorrow for two 10-year-olds. I was planning to go shopping............
