#make the habits stick

The final awakening…..

Is this the final awakening? I’m asking myself this today. How many times have I started over and how many times will I “start over” on my journey? I think I’m really asking myself the hard questions after a particular horrible couple of days. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday were rough. My body hurt in ways it hasn’t before and my energy levels were in the toilet. Worse yet was the amount of time I was spending in and out of the bathroom. My body is not in a healthy happy place and it shows in my skin and bathroom habits. I actually broke down and told my husband how horrible I feel and what a mess my gut health and general health is. He looked me in the eyes and said “I know you’re not feeling the best, so fix it”! I got a bit upset and argued that it wasn’t that simple. His response was “why not?” He told me that I have all the tools and the knowledge and I’m just not using them and you know what? He’s right! I have all kinds of workout stuff but I chose to let it gather dust. I have gym membership that I haven’t been using. I got the greens but really didn’t like the taste so don’t drink it. I skip my vitamins most days because I’m lazy. I snack in crap instead of making myself an actual meal or something healthy to eat. I just continually self sabotage which made me ask myself, am I going to self sabotage myself into a hospital bed or an early grave? So now I ask myself “is this the final awakening? And can I make the habits stick?” I don’t know but I do know that I need to start again and try before it’s too late so yesterday and today I experimented with the green juice and mixed it in different things. It’s not as horrible in orange juice. I took my vitamins and instead of snacking on chips and Ichiban noodles and other crap I made myself a tuna sandwich this afternoon and I tracked it all as intake so I can make sure I’m getting enough protein. All any of us can do is try and then try again because as many great people have said “it’s not about how you get up after you fall. It’s about the fact that you actually get up again and again”!

I loooove the jp fandom's headcanon that geeta and larry are childhood friends who met during their time in the academy and, sometime in the future, geeta personally recruited larry to work for the paldean pokemon league, as she must be one of the first people who knew of his prowess in pokemon battling! Like yeah, the whole geeta being a "strict boss who is frustrated by larry's stubborn insistence to be an average worker that she has to assign him different workloads just to broaden his horizon" idea is intriguing, but stepping it up a notch by making geeta be the "best friend a.k.a the only one who has seen larry at his very best and his very worst, and knows for a fact that he could excel at anything he put his mind into if he steps out of his comfort zone, so she doesn't particularly drag him out of said zone, but pushes him out of it each time she can because she can't bear to see her best friend be unaware of the good chances and positive things that awaits him out there, not if she has a (small) say in it" is also downright hilarious 😭🤚

On the subject of gotham county line and batman noel and so on and so forth it’s pretty frustrating (from a watsonian pov) that anytime Bruce hallucinates Jason being loving/ caring/helpful/compassionate towards him it’s always as robin and never as his current self

yeah i think orlais is cool, actually, as a world-building concept.

its in a civil war. it harbors blood and corruption and scheming and ambition behind the gilt and the pseudo-renaissance and the art and the academics. it houses the chantry. it conquers all until it gets pushed out either by some dudes with their dogs or a bunch of squabbling city-states that stop squabbling just long enough. its built on the bones of another empire. its masks on masks on masks on masks. colors and symbols have potentially lethal meaning. it introduces an entirely new assassins guild to us players.

and then the civil war gets resolved in one story mission. you can skip all the civil war lore if you just don't bother going to the graves or the plains, which is entirely possible: neither are required for story quests. its at best a punchline or a joke, when its also the largest military power in the south and probably shouldnt be so easily brushed off. you can tell the writers didnt put any real thought into who supports who and why. (cullen??? supporting 'ferelden will be ours again' gaspard???? unless this is commentary on him just being that uninformed with orlesian politics?) WEWH was just... a miss.

we could have had our prior decisions influencing our court approval, especially if choosing the mages makes us unpopular like josie says. we could have had war table choices changing our court approval: have we supported celene or gaspard or neither with our war table choices? the lydes successor missions should have gotten a nod at least with a named NPC and overheard line of dialog. we could have had a ME2 final level style mission where your companions get picked for different roles to handle different parts of the mission as opposed to *checks notes* my inquisitor climbing a rose trellis.

just. orlais could have had so much more lore and exploration and it just gets simplified down to some jokes about masks and politics.
