Had this idea bouncing around in my head ad and thought it'd be fun to get out. Being half monster themselves (not to mention all their other stuff) weirdness is nothing new to the twins. Along with her Dad's pride in monstrosity, Lucy in particular is very much like her mother and half-brother when it comes to being different: She KNOWS she's different and takes shameless pride in it. To her, weirdness is cool and something to be celebrated. Simon's a bit shyer and not as shameless, but as different as he is from his family, he's surrounded by love and acceptance for who he is to help him deal with ridicule by others.

Since Ford's dealt with teasing his whole life for his polydactyly and has had to hide it much of his life, I thought Lucy and Simon showing him their physical differences and telling him it's cool and not to be ashamed would be nice.

Since you love slugs,

Opinions on "Slug girl" by Junji ito?

The story is about someone coming out after years in shunning themselves for a long while, too scared to show who they truly are on the inside because of the repercussions of the world. Afraid that when unconfined, the world would turn against her as if she’s a monster.

It couldn’t stay as a secret no longer, and her fears were correct. Her parents seeing her situation as a result of paranormal and disgust. Wanting to cleanse her like the slugs in their garden. They did it out of love, but only harmed her more and more. Leading to her being a shell of her former self; broken and lost, seeing themselves as the monster everyone looks away in disgust.

It’s a message (to me) of shunning your inner you just to appease others, and to avoid the inevitable conflict. It’s how parents can try and fix you, but if they don’t accept who you are or help out in a positive light, they’ll continue hurting like the sinking dread inside.

It’s difficult man, it’s scary to feel a certain way and having to shun it just to avoid being hurt. But if you don’t let the inner you out, or learn to accept that’s who you are, you’ll only hurt yourself. You deserve love, even if you’re a slug.

I don’t know man but I like slugs and junji ito :P

There is something beautiful hidden there, beneath the mundane. Below what others see. It takes a little bit of courage to show it, but I believe in you.

I went to Trader Joe's yesterday to pick up some of my beloved chocolate peanut butter pretzels, and one of the cashiers was a tatted up butch wearing pointy elf/Spock ears, and you know what, I have a new type. I don't think they'd be into me for several reasons, but I learned something new about myself today.

My good friend, who has followed my weird magical blog, thank you! That’s all I really wanted to say. If you are ever in need and wish to chat, I am happy to do so online lol. That is all, have a good day!

Thanks, you too!

Let your weirdness out

For context, I’m a self diagnosed, late identifying adult woman of ADHD. This morning I was feeling particularly hyper and having trouble holding in my verbal stims!

Yesterday I had to take a green tea supplement (L-Theanine for all those unmedicated self diagnosed adults that may find it helpful!). For me, coffee works the same as you’d expect for a neurotypical. It definitely takes my procrastination away but I get the nice buzz. I want to plan, create, generate ideas and it generally accelerates my day dreaming mode. To the point I can turn it into productivity! 😀👏🏻

Green tea, however, for me, works as I’d expect a stimulant to work on someone with ADHD. It quiets my brain and leaves me feeling chill. The buzzy brain yesterday was feeling so overwhelming that I wanted to quiet it. I was starting to feel like I wanted to go into paralysis mode with the overwhelm.

Today, I was faced with the dilemma. Do I dull myself down to appear ‘normal’ for work and be better able to focus? Or do I ride the high and let my weird out? Let my verbal stims spill over and just enjoy the hyper?

Said this to my 9 year old (he is diagnosed AuDHD) on the way to school. There’s a ‘brain break’ song on Youtube called ‘Shake your sillies out’. (See link attached). In answer to my question, he started singing this but changed the words to ‘shake your weirdness out’.

Being 9, he often likes to laugh over willies and boobies etc. So I thought he said ‘shake your willies out’!! Especially since it rhymes with the original word ‘sillies’. So funny! The convo went like this:

Me: ‘Shake your willies out?’ Said in pure indignation! ‘Ooh, you’d better not start singing that at school!’

9 year old: ‘Noooo!’ Laughs hysterically. ‘I didn’t say that! I said shake your weirdness out!’

So there you go, sitting here with my Cappuccino, riding the buzz and not dulling myself down for anyone! Boom! 💥
