Ive said this before but swear the biggest skill to learn as an adult is how to resist high-pressure sales tactics. You do NOT have to answer questions with anything other than "Sorry I'm not interested." No matter how nice they are or no matter how many follow up questions they ask or even how agitated they get when you stand your ground. Just keep saying I'm not interested. Don't answer their questions. Don't give them an opening to try to push back on your reasons. Be a fucking brick wall of I'm not interested.

#You're going to feel like you're being rude and that's okay #They're going to act like your best friend at first #And slowly get more agitated #the more you try #To stand your ground #But they're not your friend #They're trying to sell you something you don't want

If my mom sees a significant amount of blood she gets lightheaded, and has fainted on some occasions. Once it happened when we were kids, I wasn't there to witness it but I heard the story from my dad. Basically my brothers, around 7 or 8 at the time, were playing outside while my mom was making their lunch, and she accidentally cut her finger. It wasn't anything serious, but it drew a fair bit of blood and she passed out. My dad saw this and rushed over, but he didn't really know what to do so he just sort of started slapping her to wake her up (not recommended, but he had no idea and panicked)

At that exact moment my brothers both came in from playing, and all they saw was our mom unconscious on the floor and our dad slapping her. So, like, without even saying a word to each other they both just INSTANTLY start whaling on him, like, full blown attack mode to defend our mom. Which obviously didn't help the situation, but she did wake up and everything was fine.

Now our dad says that he's actually really glad they attacked him over what they thought was going on, because it means he raised good boys. And I still think that's true, they're very good boys.

#i think about this story sometimes like yeah I'm proud of them for that too actually. good job baby brothers #they're not babies anymore of course they're turning 20 next year which is crazy #but they're still the type of people who'd do something if they saw something of this sort happen for sure #respectful of women and everyone else too. they're good guys #I'm glad I ended up with them living in my house against my will for like 14 years #anyway i have no idea where i was for all this but my best guess is probably a friends house given the time period #i was always at my besties house lol #i hope she's doing well too actually. haven't spoken in forever...#bestie from greek elementary school... if you're out there... let's get muffins and fanta at the bakery across the street again someday 💜☮️

worried that thing you put in your art or writing or game or music is too self-indulgent, too self-referential, too niche for anyone but yourself? fear not! you can do whatever you want forever. and you should.

#writing #art #music #games #things i have to remind myself of daily #anyway ive found those things you're worried about sharing are often the most powerful things you CAN share #i hope you write #<- i would like to replace that tag with something that is less conversational #it makes reblogs awkward #anyway good morning. i have so many things to do today but instead i am crafting a memorial to my partner's best friend in my fanfiction.

MASTERPOST (for the full series / FAQ / reference sheets)

#undertale #deltarune #utdr #crossover #crossover comic #undertale fanart #deltarune fanart #twin runes #twin runes comic #twin runes au #kris dreemurr #frisk #and we arrived at the breaking point #i know the last pages have been very depresso but i swear once this arc is over we'll get right back on track with the funnies #but first we have to deal with some DRAMA #imagine what it would be like if some otherworldly entity took over your body #and suddenly you start making friends and patching up old friendships #Something even your mother is proud of you for #even though it's not YOU doing that #you'd feel like people don't like YOU but only that parasite in your body #because without it you're just that creepy kid next door #you'd feel like the world would be better without you #at least that's what Kris must be feeling right now #i DO wonder what's up with this cave though #it clearly is NOT the exit #and what's with those markings outside and inside the cave?#hmmmmm

#good omens #´hello friends!! how are you!!#I hope you're doing well! ( ´ ▽ ` )#I have a big cough but otherwise I am good! It's nothign bad I am just very slimey #usually I am not a cough person I am not sure where this is coming from #most of the time I just get a stuffy nose #has my nose gotten stronger #but there are good news too I have already found a VERY good chestnut to put into my pocket this autumn!! its very small! (❁´▽`❁)#it's been a very warm autumn in Germany so far so it has not really felt like fall yet #but yesterday it was all rainy and stormy and I had two new books and it was the best day possible to have a slimey cough (:#and now I feel SO much autumn I am close to buying a set of window colors #I do not know what I would to with the window colors I just have this strong urge in me to buy a window color set #the last time I did a window color was at the birtday of a class mate I think she turned 9 and I made a deer #but for some reason we did this craft 5 minutes before we all had to leave so we had to carry our window color deer home wet #unfortunatly for the deer and me I fell down the stairs of her house and smeared the deer all over me and i screamed the entire drive home #which wasn't very long but it probably felt very long for the mother who had a screaming child covered in window color deer inside her car

i wrote an interactive poem for my girlfriend in 3 parts. she said you need to read it.

go here: take only the final quiz or take all 3. i don't mind. it's sad, though. this is a poem about choice. about fate and mental illness and how love fits inside of all of it. this is a poem about a long dark hallway. mostly this is a poem about mango sushi rolls.

good luck. i love you. despite it all, i'm hopeful.

#uqiz #she said i need to put it up here lmafo #something something feel free to send me 5 dollars towards my next sushi roll run #poetry #experimental poetry #there's no specific like warning on this except that im not doing well n therefore it LEAKS into my writing lol #the realllll shit as an author is like ohhhh fuck i write so much better when im mentally unwell lol #:( why cant i be sane AND rational. why does my creativity gotta stem from suffering.#(bc when im not suffering im outside saying YIPPEE and kicking my heels lol)#IF YOU SAW THIS BEFORE I CLICKED THE RIGHT LINK NO YOU DIDNT #hey btw if you're experiencing an error idk what's up with that bc it still loads on my end.#i'll look into solutions but sorry :(#hi friends: i have no idea why sometimes the links break for random people.#it might be a chrome/firefox/etc thing but i will say that the links still work on my end AND i still have people taking each quiz.#so i know it works .... i have no idea what the exact solution is - maybe reload it if urs isn't working?#sorry im not good at coding :(

imagine percy swimming to the bottom of the ocean. not to save a group of sea creatures. not to show off his skillset. and not to prance around as the sea god's favorite son. but to join the ocean in all that it is. laying in the soft sand and watching the fish swim by. the lobsters making space for him as he rests his head against a patch of seaweed. him laughing at the irony. imagine percy making small talk with all the different sea creatures and assigning them names. him actually running into a whale he named phillip who's on his way to propose to his boyfriend. and percy wishing him good luck and offering his blessing on their union. imagine percy making small talk with the starfish about his favorite dinosaur. and explaining to the collective group what a dinosaur is and why they don't need to worry about them reaching the bottom of the ocean. just. percy immersiving himself in all that's aquatic because it's where he can be his most self.

#and it's not that camp half-blood doesn't give him that sense of community #it's just hard to feel a part of something when the other half of you calls out to the sea and you're stuck on land #sometimes he goes down there and collects trinkets for his friends and family #they call him the modern age ariel and he cringes at the idea of being his brothers son #but he continues to give them gifts because he wants to share who he is with the people he cares about #just imagine percy behaving like he's the son of poseidon in the truest form #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo text post #pjo #pjo headcanon #percy jackson #percy jackson is the son of poseidon #the son of poseidon

Was thinking of my post about dream teams and got really invested in whatever Unrequited Hate has going on

#trafficblr #life series #tangotek #smallishbeans #inthelittlewood #smajor1995 #wild life smp #limited life smp #secret life smp #only tagging those three because they're the ones I referenced in particular while making this #see tango and joel started building a funny dynamic and then suddenly I'm super attached to a team that does not exist #tango has been the biggest annoyance to joel and joel (just like the rest of the server) WANTS HIM GONE.#scott and joel shouldn't have to be said there's someghjng so funny about joel praying in scott's downfall and then scott just dgaf #martyn and tango are silly cause tango is so distrusting if him and martyn fully embraces his untrustworthiness so it's like.#like a cat hissing at something that no one else finds suspicious #mean gills are...mean gills. they say they're divorced and all that but i don't buy it.#didn't know how to describe joel and martyn's dynamic other than that one line in limited life so i used those #and then tango and scott are silly cause they're so chill with each other. scott startles tango wuth his creeper disguise #and he just laughs and goes “you're the ultimate troll!” like! they are friends surely :)#oh and they're all shipped with jimmy solidarity too that is a thing #i love this non existent team dynamic sm they need ti be real please please PLEASEEEEEEEEE

Social anxiety level: Chatting with someone experiencing a schizophrenic episode and becoming increasingly self-concious of how I'm just saying "That sounds really stressful", "I've never heard of that but it sounds scary", and "You must be pretty worried about that" over and over again

#They needed someone to wait with them while their friend came to pick them up #And the whole time I was waiting for them to call bullshit #Like YOU HAVENT SAID ANYTHING MEANINGFUL YOURE SO BAD AT THIS #I'm sorry I'm making this one about me ma'am I'm just terrified that everyone I talk to is gonna give be a bad grade #I don't understand or beleive most of what you're saying but from the legit science you're quoting I can tell you've done some research #The research stuff I appreciate we can totally talk about that #Please God let me talk about Chordata or HTML instead of the thing I can't see or hear wouthout encouraging your delusion #I'd get SUCH a good grade at discussing invertebrates with you

ghost horses

GHORSES

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #ask #wei wuxian #a-yuan #What a post to have a-yuan make his PD-MDZS debut on!#You're so right...if WWX were to summon a horse it would be a ghorse (ghost horst).#If he gets to have a ghost girl posse then why not also let him have a stable of beautiful ghost horses?#Yiling Laozu rides into town with his haunted vegetables and ghostly steed and zombie vegetable seller.#Serving a look that they might call 'off-putting' and 'discomforting'. To the *weak*!#WWX probably would let A-yuan pet the Horsies but hear me out: this is for the funny punchline.#To be honest where he lies on the triangle of 'can we get mcdonkcles?' triangle really depends who's asking.#I think he leans more on the 'orders a black coffee for himself and leaves' but with a shit-eating grin for most people.#He seems like a goofy guy who'd love to eat Mack O'donnel in the middle of the night with his friends.#But WWX lives his life with the innate sense to be an agitator. He wouldn't miss the opportunity to pull a prank like that.#I think he'd only actually go to Mick Dick's if Yanli asked #Feel free to disagree of course! He has his layers!

Romanced Taash has an energy I can only describe as like…

Rook: …Taash would you still love me if I were a worm? 🥺

Taash: What? Why? Has anyone told you they’re gonna do that to you? ‘Cause that’s real fucked up. That’s Not Cool. I’ll beat them up for you if you want to so they can’t do that. Just tell me where they are. Oh shit. I gotta ask Emmrich if he can turn me into a worm so I can be a worm with you in case it happens anyway so you won’t be alone. He’ll probably need my blood or something and it’ll be real creepy and corpsy but that’s fine that’s a small price to pay. Wait. What do you mean would I still love you. Of course I'd still love you. With my whole also-worm heart if it came to it. Why would you even ask that.

#once you're taash' friend they're just like 'yeah I'd give you the blood from my veins if you asked for it. don't make it weird tho'#and it goes double when you're bae. amazing. taash is the best #dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age spoilers #taash #rook x taash
