I want to read books I want to write more I want to play the piano I want to sing in key I want to delve into fashion history I want to travel I want to publish research papers and I want to become a surgeon and I’m supposed to do all that in this one wild and beautiful life
#Ummm#This is why taking time off before I go to med school is the right call for me there’s sm I want to do constantly but the time!!#This lowkey sucks tho bc ever since I was little I’ve had dreams of writing something profound and being published#Both in a scientific context and also just like in a writing anything profound concept#But ik writing is very high bar and Id have to dedicate time to it and be super serious if I wanna self teach and honestly#Every day Im more and more tempted to just get a lit masters but where is the time if I want to become a doctor!!#Maybe it’ll just be a far fetched dream that I work on on the side bc physicians who’re also authors exist#I j want to contribute something meaningful to this world but to do that ik I have to consume great art first and dissect it and learn from#It#And just like not listen to ppl’s opinions and do what I want but it’s hard when I’m on a timeline#It’s bc I understand none of these vocations are anything to sneeze at and I wanna take them seriously instead of being mediocre at them#Like I truly wanna LEARN but the time management skills are gonna have to go way up#Does anyone understand me or am I having an unnecessary meltdown

Two former military elites taking merc jobs perform absolutely hellish battle tactics together.
#ffxiv#digital art#zenos yae galvus#estinien wyrmblood#adventurer zenos#I will always adore this duo conceptually#because like- socially theyre that aragorn-geralt brooding in a corner of a tavern meme#but in combat they are absolutely terrifying#the azure dragoon and the super soldier legatus are here to fuck up a poachers day#aka zenos is about to crossmap someone's airship cause he knows estinien cant make himself jump that far#why have him try to jump when he can just Olympic-level javelin toss this man#also guys#my dudes#all this time I've been working on adven!zenos being a tank#I... have realized I just write him like a warrior who isnt carrying a weapon- sturdy unkillableness and countering and all#I am only a little bit of a dumbass but orogeny just seems to live in my head rent free#it also gave me the terrifying concept of- after spending time with the scions and after the ultimatum-#of him trying to learn more about dynamis- and zenos being zenos starts learning eventually how to harness it#local calm apathetic man can berserk on command because he's a lot angrier/more expressive inwardly than most people expect#depending on how I look into it- it might be how he fuels most of his shinryu transformations but I'll have to work on it more#but ANYWAYS#I love the thought of these two hunting and working together#and estinien being tossed being turned into a tactic#especially with proper form#this is something ive wanted to draw for a very long time and im very happy I actually have the skill to do so now

Something really just. Nice that I noticed with the bros is that each of them has shown off some pretty interesting skills.
Raph is the one who fixes April’s ceiling fan for her, Mikey takes on half the work when making the new puppy rescue for Todd, and Leo is outright able to reprogram Shelldon’s AI (he messed up, but the fact he was able to do this at all is like??? Raph and Mikey were there too did they know Leo could do that because they were not surprised-)
Of course, this is nothing compared to Donnie’s own immense talent and skill for inventing and science in general, but it shows that the others are not incapable of assisting in his field if need be.
What I like to think with all of this is that they listened to and likely helped with Donnie’s various ideas growing up. Sure they may not get the specifics, and complex science talk goes right over their heads, but in a pinch they’d be able to get Donnie the right tool or set a wire back in place. It’s not as necessary now that Donnie is much more independent when he makes things, but it’s cute to imagine there being a time where the others had to pitch in and learned some stuff because of it.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rise donnie#rise raph#rise mikey#rise leo#rottmnt headcanons#idk I know we call these boys dumb a lot but they all have smart moments#okay fr this time I’m going back to avoiding tumblr for a bit haha it’s too addicting#rip my mental health#I’ll see you when I finish that comic#actually all of them have a lottt of skills under their belt#and they learn super fast#probably because of Draxum making them to be super engineered or smth#but it’s fun to witness#April too is super superrrr skilled#so is Splinter#honestly they all are awesome and losers at the same time I love

hi!! what was the name of that dog trainer(s?) you mentioned watching before getting hugo? i'm considering a puppy and want to be able to train this little dude like a boss TIA :]
omg I was watching McCann Dogs!! I watched so so so much of their training vids before bringing Hugo home + during his puppyhood and it helped so much. these are some of the ones that I really Studied early on to give me a blueprint of how to start from ground zero w my boy
#it was good to have goalposts for the first couple months#and the ones where they take you through the first day of bringing a puppy home were amazingly helpful#they're also the reason why i was able to crate train hugo#sergle answers#it is nice to have it broken down bc it feels like there's so much to learn but when they're babies you're really doing like#very foundational skills and it's lots of simple repetition and it's super rewarding#having them learn their response to name and learning what Yes means (or the clicker if you do clicker training)#bc if they know their name and they know Yes then learning everything else is easier#it feels really really good to teach all the skills w positive reinforcement

It's wild how people push you to develop self love out of thin air when you grew up not being loved. "You have to love yourself before anyone else loves you"--bullshit. Your parents loved you before you had a concept of self. Some of us don't have that privileged experience. The things that helped me stop hating myself so intensely: -Being loved by someone when I didn't love myself. -Working toward mastering a skill, thereby giving myself a foundation to build a sense of self on.
#avpd#really on the learning a skill train today#ngl I honestly believe it's a super important experience for people with avpd#start pursuing a skill you enjoy and don't stop

I just achieved Perfection for the first time ever on Stardew Valley and I'm just, so stoked I can't even explain it.
As someone who previously could hardly make it into Year 2 before I got bored/burn out the fact that I played this save for FOUR MONTHS and have over 120 hours in it and am half way through Year 4...
I'm just so happy. I had to share.
I used a lot of journaling/note taking and encouraged myself to take breaks as a way to help prevent burnout. I've learned a lot on how to better tackle games so I can actually enjoy them long-term and it's been incredible.
If you're reading this and you're a fellow ADHDer who *wants* to have a long game, this is your sign. You can do it.
#stardew valley#perfection farm#sdv#personal#ive worked super hard to learn how to better manage my expectations/time/etc and its helped so much#therapy man#also Mogs on YT has a great video on how not to start a new minecraft world#much recommend#i learned many of my skills there that helped make this possible#im still floored#this save is FOUR MONTHS old#like i started it IMMEDIATELY after 1.6 came out basically#im just#wow#edit: i cant believe i forgot to include the house screenshot#it was like 2am when i posted tbf

so. i made a gnome generator
thank you to everyone who supplied me with gnome names (i am still accepting more in my ask box if you have one you'd like to share with the class)! i have been learning basic html stuff and have used my meager knowledge to create a clunky, yet functional, gnome generator. the gnome and their stats will change upon refreshing the page, but you can click the gnome gname button as many times as you like.
MAKE UR GNOME TODAY!
#i am an absolute noob in coding still so pwease don't tease the clunky nature of my code#neocities#gnomeposting#gnomecore#gnomes#old web#also if u have any coding tips or recommendations i'd love to hear em!#this was a super fun way to test my skills and i learned a lot doing it#html has been so much more fun than i thought it was gonna be#like. i put a nonsensical string of letters and symbols together. and ur tellin me. they're a webpage now?? wild#1k

Jon is excitedly telling Tim and Conner about a recent mission when Damian interjects.
Jon: Dami, let me finish-!!!
Damian: Tt. Whatever, I always let you finish.
Tim & Kon burst out into laughter.
Jon: -my sentence.
Damian: Right. Why did you feel the need to clarify that?
Jon:
Damian with a look of uncharacteristic innocence: what?
#Damian knows exactly what he said#He's learned skills in acting from the best#Alfred would be proud#gaslighting Jon is a hobby#it's even funnier if they're not a couple and this is just Damian trying to drop hints and flirt#damian wayne#jon kent#tim drake#conner kent#robin#superboy#brotherly bonding#damijon#jondami#super sons

i miss carpisuns sometimes </3
#not necessarily that I regret switching over but i just get like nostalgic for an earlier time in the ml fandom#s3 was soooo much fun for me#and the long hiatus before s4 was also the best. so good wasn’t ready for it to end when it did haha#things just feel so different in the fandom now#both the fandom has changed and I have changed#and of course the STORY has changed#and I like don’t know what to do about that or how to react#cause I am used to being one of the guys who is defending ml’s honor with my life lol#committed to spreading positivity#and I still want to be that guy!#but it’s like. idk. I don’t recognize this story anymore#this isn’t the same story that I fell in love with years ago. but I don’t want to just like Leave??#I do want to see how things play out bc I am still invested in these characters#and I would love to still be part of the fan community and connect with people over a mutual love for this thing#that has been important to me for years and has inspired me to create and learn new skills and make new friends!#but I also don’t just want to shut up and pretend I’m happy about things I am decidedly unhappy about lol#like it’s honestly surprising to me that a only a small minority of the fandom seems to feel the way I do?#and the majority are still super pumped and frustrated at the people who are complaining#and really. I don’t WANT to rain on anyone’s parade. I honestly don’t#I was part of the parade for years! I had the best time in the parade! I don’t want to ruin the good time!#so i try not to be too salty on main ? but i feel like I’m going a little crazy lmao! like I’m just one bitter little miser fhdjjd#i mean i guess it’s kind of a good thing that I moved blogs tbh lol#cause now when i whine only a fraction of the people have to be exposed to it 😂#but man i hate knowing that people might think of me as a salter#I mean it’s valid if people are trying to have fun and do not want to hear my complaining haha#but also do i automatically have to be a salter. are the only options support and defend ml 100% at all times or Be A Salter#or can there be a third category of certified ml lover that is just disappointed in recent events & disagrees with the new writing direction#is that too much nuance for tumblr lol#see maybe that’s why I miss carpisuns. she didn’t have to ask this question. she was only full of LOVE!#but therein lies the irony…like marinette I have made this choice out of love…for what the story once was…what is to become of me now…

If you are ever in charge of a kid it is IMPERATIVE that you sometimes let them get away with stuff, because you will never see a grin like the grin of a kid who is Getting Away With Something. You gotta be a coconspirator and help them steal extra slices of capsicum that were supposed to go in the frying pan for dinner. You gotta pretend you don't know exactly what they're doing when they try to buy themselves another ten minutes before bed. I absolutely promise that the benefit of enforcing a non-essential rule 100% of the time is nothing compared to watching their delight over successfully breaking it.
#and in addition to being SUPER CUTE#learning when and how to break rules is honestly just as important as learning to follow them#so you are teaching important life skills and being rewarded with the Cheekiest Grin on Earth#(obviously the flip side to this is being clear about which rules are necessary always and absolutely)#(we don't run out onto the road even if there's a pigeon sitting there that we REALLY want to chase)#(we don't hit other people even if we're really angry they won't read us six stories in a row)#(these examples are geared at toddlers with poor impulse control bc i'm drawing from my own life but you get the idea)

it’s scary how he immediately picked on how neutral limitless works just by fighting gojo once
#ryomen sukuna#sukuna#jujutsu kaisen#jjk#funny how the viewer is initially made to believe that he’s some type of super natural force but as the story progresses you gradually#realize that he’s just an extremely skilled sorcerer and everything he does can be learned if you’re witty and attentive enough#even his CT is very basic at its core when you compare it to other techniques#what makes it so dangerous is him (and he shows this multiple times when he uses other ppl’s techniques)#considering the little bit we know about his past his life was probably hell until he acquired these skills. wish we knew more about how he#became the strongest but welp#anyway I’m glad I binged everything a second time. it’s the reason he became one of my faves again :3#jjk 2#☁️.blogging

Do you think Peter learned how to breakdance when he got his powers just to add flare to his movement?
i think peter parker had been trying and failing to breakdance long before the spider-bite, and is just happy to discover he finally has the upper body strength to actually pull it off now
#sci speaks#i don't think peter ever learns the genuine technique for anything. he freestyles.#he's an academic nerd. he is bad at sport and always will be. even if he's physically athletic he just doesn't learn the technique.#he'll always be bad at it. he doesn't get the rules#same as breakdancing he just freestyles. he will never know how to dance. and he'll never be able to floss either. he just can't.#wade can.#i also think peter could never master martial arts or anything because of that. he just relies on instinct.#i know he learns martial arts in the comics shuuut up i know i know he does but it's only because he loses his spider-sense.#i don't think he'd devote the time to learning a sport or dance or martial art.#i think he just doesn't see the benefit. he wings it. all the time.#“like yeah okay i could devote all the time to learning that. but i could also just. punch it.”#he's so funny he's so funny.#i love my apathetic loser guy who has SUPER STRENGTH but is also too lazy for sport.#he could become an olympic athlete. but he just doesn't wanna.#he could become a world-famous breakdancer. but he doesn't wanna.#he does all of those things but with no discipline whatsoever.#no discipline. that is why wade kind of hates him.#he picks up new skills so effortlessly but he has nOOO DISCIPLINE. he doesn't care about technique or rules.#but he pulls it off anyway. wade is fuming.

Lmao okay so Cassandra and Daniela were the loudest advocates for having pets in the castle but Alcina always said no because it’s plenty of work for everyone to look after the three daughters and no one has the energy to do the same for pets (because tbh the daughters can’t do much on their own they have maids that literally do everything for them like they barely even dress themselves there is always someone helping them and this is just ONE example)
Anyway, years and years later, life made a full circle and one Cassandra Dimitrescu was asked by her very own daughters if they can have a pet. Cassandra took a moment to realize that if it’s not for her wife, this family would be in shambles because Cass can barely keep herself alive let alone her children. And then she realized that her mother was right. It is a lot of work already and having pets is not going to work.
Cass would rather die than admit her mother is right but she fully gets it now
#house dimitrescu#cassandra dimitrescu#resident evil village#daniela dimitrescu#resident evil 8#bela dimitrescu#re8#alcina dimitrescu#headcanon#Dimitrescu daughters haven’t done anything for themselves#like they just exist and have maids to do everything for them#bela learned how to tie shoelace in high school and only bc she felt that it’s something she should know how to do#cass and dani never learned EVEN AS ADULTS#😭😭😭#they don’t pick up anything even school bags#the only time they do is when they’re leaving the car to enter the school but this is it#just useless rich girls with an army of maids in their giant castle#they don’t need to learn anything because they have people doing these things for them#and cass is the same#she has a lot of maids and three Nannie’s to keep up with her children and she KNOWS that it’s only because of her wife’s amazing#management skills that the family is alive and well#because cass grew up being super spoiled she can’t function in any other way#she needs someone to keep watch on her and make sure SHE is alive#having her own children is a huge challenge but she has an amazing wife#so yes the same sentiment lives on#pets are too big of a responsibility#and yes there are maids to do this but they’re already busy keeping the family members alive#plus their actual duties so pets are a no still

"Miss Wendy, I found one!"
"Finally! Was starting to think I cleared this spot out already!"
Wendy's next, accompanied by Eleanor Truffles, her self-proclaimed assistant for the day! Seems a lot of Wendy's latest brews require ice flowers, so the two little ladies went off to find some!
Good thinking on Wendy's part, as with someone as eagle-eyed as Ellie on her side, gathering ingredients is a breeze!
Ellie's idea of an adventure with one of the ultra-famous Koopalings wasn't anything like this... but it's still fun! ^w^
#Super Mario#Koopa Week#Koopa Week 2024#Koopalings#Wendy O Koopa#Eleanor Truffles#In a way Ellie gets to expand her lore nerd skills#by learning about the different uses for plants/power ups/herbs!#as long as she gets to learn something new she's happy X3#axewchaoscribbles
