Self Worth: Recognize your Value

Place a premium on your worth. The absence or presence of someone or something in your life doesn’t determine your happiness, you do. You and only you can choose if you will live happily or sorrowfully irrespective of what comes out against you. Everything that will make you happy isn’t external but inside you. Acknowledge every good thing in you. Nobody and nothing will make you happy until you…

Steve Harrington being absolutely pissed/terrified at the Upside-Down and all it's monsters and being a Petty Betty and reading everything he can about DnD monsters and how best to kill them because the UD monsters seem to have a pattern and the kids relate the monsters to those in their game. Steve absolutely wanting to be as prepared as he can and reading up on any and all creatures, mythical, magical, cryptid, horror just in case they run into the Upside-down equivalent. Steve especially doing this during season 3.

Eddie Munson of course works at the mall too, at the record store across from Scoop's and may or may not have the biggest crush on Steve Harrington who he can sometimes see through the shop's windows when the customers are low, but he and Steve don't properly interact till season 4. Not until he adopts his merry band of little sheep. Steve and he somewhat talking when he picks them up from Hellfire. It's not until Steve arrives a bit to early for pickup and sits down to wait for them in the clubroom that they actual start talking more than a handful of words.

Steve is over the moon to actually be making a friend around his own age. Eddie is in-between wanting to scream in frustration for actually liking Steve more after they continue to get to know each other or just kiss his stupidly pretty lips. The rest of Hellfire are apprehensive but after seeing how Steve interacts with the kids, with Eddie's blatant flirting (Steve though is oblivious) and how Steve seems to be friends with that chicken Robin in band, they mostly just ignore him or even ask how his day was.

It's during one session that Steve purposefully came early so he could hang out that Steve's knowledge is revealed. He's just chilling on the club room's donated sofa and reading Batman Annual #8 that Lucas lent him after ranting about the art and story for so long that Steve gave in and asked to borrow it. Lucas liked to joke that they had to give Steve an activity otherwise he'd fall asleep so Lucas would bring him a comic and Dustin usually had a snack his mom packed for Steve. So Steve is just snacking, reading, minding his own business when he hears the kids arguing about how best to take down Gray Ooze and Steve just mindlessly remembering all his studying just blurts, "It's immune to cold and fire, I don't know what weapons you have on hand or your spell things but anything besides cold and fire should work."

He's still reading the comic and snacking on some almonds so he misses when all heads turn to look at him in bafflement, or complete heart-eyes in Eddie's case. He does not miss when Dustin, Mike and Lucas start yelling at him and demanding how he knew that.

Eddie is wondering how soon is too soon to get Steve a promise ring.

Why should knowledge hurt? Why not just make it gold? For me myself and I

My partner just referred to himself as "a nug based himbo" which is extremely accurate and made me laugh way too much

Thoughts about moving from a person who never did growing up and now has done it quite a few times:

Doing it all at once sucks. So much. Obviously a lot of the you have to, but if you have the opportunity to do it even over the course of a couple days? Take it.

Friends are wonderful. Friends are a fucking godsend. Even somebody who's not strong enough to lift heavy things is useful. Someone to take the lighter stuff means less time carrying things overall.

Stay. Fucking. Hydrated. You have to make a conscious effort to do this or you will finally get a chance to sit down and experience your body violently rebelling against you bc it spent the days water budget in four hours and now you're in water debt.

You can try to keep your boxes of stuff organized but at a certain point you will just be left with a bunch of random stuff and you will have to just throw it all together in a box.

Those appliance/furniture dollies are so useful if you're moving literally any furniture. I'm p sure you can just rent those from u-haul but I'm not positive on that one cause I just use my dad's.

The mattress will be your biggest nightmare. No matter what you do it will be a struggle but you can get these strap things that have loops you can slip your hands through and then the strap goes under the mattress and oh my god this makes it so much easier.

If you know somebody who works at a grocery store, see if they can save you the apple boxes from produce. They're very sturdy and a good not-awkward size if you don't have long arms like me, plus they are free.

So who’s coming to Tavastia 2.0 gig next Wednesday? I would definitely appreciate some company and new brainrot friends, so let me know if you’d like to hang out 🫶 Would love some company in the queue.

(Also, someone who goes to gigs more, please please let know at what time do you think it would be a good idea to show up. My last concert queueing experience is from 15 years ago, help. I have tickets to both gigs but the k18 gig is obviously a priority.)

Internal monologue:

Me: hey geckogeckogecko you've been sitting on the concept for this piece for almost a month. You should probably simplify it and just crank it out so you can finally get it out of your head

Also me: ok sounds good but like hear me out. What if you simplify it but then spend waaay too much time on the outfit?

Me: the logic in this is flawless.

Focus: Refuse to be Distracted

You don’t have to convince your critics; you have a destiny to fulfill. Be the best that you can be, and before long, you will complete your dream and your result will answer your critics and God will take care of them. When Nehemiah was rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem, there were two men at the bottom of the mountain named Sanballat and Tobiah. They were greatly angry and mocking him and were…

not entirely like festhered biped no, Vieh means livestock but you can also colloquially use it for beast in the sense of like. If there's a big bug you can say "da ist ein Viech" (pronounced wrong on purpose, with ch instead of h) to say "there is a little beast" and it's said in a negative-ish way in the sense that you're a bit disgusted by it and don't know what type of bug it is. And Federvieh is derogatory in the same sense, calling the bird a "feathered beast" in a derogatory way rather than a mythical creature way (because in English that phrsse could also be a mythical creature of some sort but it's not) and be like "I don't know or care what type of animal this is but it's some sort of feathered Creature"

oooo :O that's very cool i am learning i am learning nodnod

dont think ive ever felt this nauseous and doubtful about just. sharing anything. on my own blog in soooooooo long lol the simultaneous hunger for validation/recognition/acknowledgement/understanding and utterly paralyzing terror of being misinterpreted/maligned/just plain ol' forgotten about or deemed too insignificant/uninspiring/unapproachable for connection is enough in combination to give me headaches.

idk i feel as though i might never shake off the perpetual panicked feeling of desperately needing to get my shit together despite the degree of together my shit actually is, all things considered and compared to where i used to be
