#it was just me

[corvidinthewoods]

my family is watching the hbomberguy roblox video and i’m reflecting on how his work has long had themes of recognizing un- or under-credited works

Plagiarism and You(tube), of course

ROBLOX_OOF.mp3, about Tommy Tallarico taking credit for that and lots of other shit (especially Joey Kuras’s work)

Scanline Directors Cut episode, talking about how he got sole credit for the original Scanline when its him with Shannon Strucci

Halcyon Dreams, about Don Bluth getting credit for Rick Dyer’s game

Here’s Three Videos About Youtube Plagiarism, also obvious

and the running [citation needed] joke throughout Measured Response videos

my horse died in skyrim and I genuinely started crying. Many tears were shed I hadn't saved recently so there was nothing I could do. Martini you will be missed you were the best.

So, one of the ways that I write is that sometimes I act out scenes in character. In this case, I'm working on a possible Jack Kidd/OC fic, which is a weird thing to say because I rarely if ever write OC fic, but here we are.

Anyway, I made myself cry. So...yes to the scene if I ever write the fic is what I'm saying.

Also: I have MCAS, which means my histamines go wild when I cry, so then I had to de-blotch my face.

But, like, even if I never use the scene, I know it's really fucking good because I made myself cry.

Heads up, I left the official discord sever of hello puppets. I am no longer there, so if there is any chance someone has a similar user name as myself then know that it's not me to avoid confusion.

So how do y'all find this string of discussion that fits together so well, when I do research I find no one that was pissed enough to write a coherent critique (although I would have loved to. Curse you, Nölke and Vliegenhart 2007, you were doing a load of pseudoscientific bullshit AND I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW)

The holy grail of searching through academic literature is coming across a string of publications that are like:

Here’s An Idea. Smith et al. 2016

Terrible Idea; a comment on Smith et al. 2016. Johnson 2016.

You’re Wrong Too; a response to Johnson 2016. Nelson 2016.

Guys Just Stop Fighting, None Of Us Know What’s Going On; a Review of the Current Literature. McBrien 2017.

I think one of the kindest things you can do for people with various mental health struggles is just... let people back into your life after they've been absent for a while.

Making friends as an adult is so fucking hard already and isolating yourself from other people is a very common symptom of depression, anxiety, burnout, ocd, trauma, grief, etc. Which means that someone will do the hard work of recovery/healing and resurface back into a world where their previous friends have written them off because they stopped showing up.

So if you know someone where you're like "yeah we could have been better friends but they fell off the map a bit" and that person suddenly reaches out, or starts showing up to events even though you kind of forgot they were still in the group chat... well they may have been Going Through It and you don't actually have to punish them for their absence you can just be glad that they're back.
