Harnessing Sensitivity: Navigating Adversity with Optimism for Survival and Growth In a world where tragedies seem to strike without warning, many ponder whether these unfortunate events result from some magnet-like energy within us or simply random occurrences. While some of what happens to us results from our actions and decisions, many events are beyond our control and stem from external…

You don't need to believe that people as a whole are good or well-intentioned to be an optimist about fixing climate change.
A lot of the time, it's enough to trust in this: people hate being screwed over. And even more than that, they hate feeling screwed over.
Climate change is actively screwing over almost every single person on this planet, whether they know it or not. We just need to keep making sure that people do know that they're getting screwed over, along with all their loved ones, and who's doing it.
Spite and righteous anger will honestly do a lot of the rest.
#hope#good news#hope posting#climate change#climate optimism#life#not news#advice#me#human nature#like. obviously this is imho. but also I'm genuinely convinced that I'm right#spite and anger are powerful motivators#there are scientists who argue that anger's whole evolutionary purpose#is to keep us from being screwed over#because that's so vital to our survival#and what's more vital to our survival than a liveable planet???#channel your anger into action#do not let anyone tell you that optimism or being an activist or being part of a healthy community means never being angry#that is so so untrue#and if you find a way to channel your anger and pain and grief to do GOOD in the world#to help people#then that will also do a lot to stop your emotions from eating you up inside#hopepunk#anger#spite#optimism#hopeposting#humanity

case study of the self-identified god
#obsessed with the fact that rain world is a game about survival#yet every character we meet has the express goal of trying to optimize killing themselves#every creature in game seems perfectly content fulfilling their role in the ecosystem no matter how many cycles they do the same thing#(rly obvious with gourmand's entire route. guy who lives their life to the fullest without the slightest hint of resentment)#it was really only the ancients who thought they were above it and thought of it as something to escape from#5pebbles is so interesting because the only reason hes “”“godlike”“” is because of his vast knowledge. if he was in any slugcats shoes he#would die instantly which is ironically what hes been trying to do this whole time#this comic was kind of exploring the idea of awareness (divinity) as something that drags down ones enjoyment of life (walking).#if 5p would humble himself down enough to walk around like any other creature#he would a) be much happier in life and b) achieve the ascension he's been gunning for for millennia like all the slugcats did#but he never will.#getting rid of all his work on the problem or even his awareness of it entirely#would just be a trick of convenience that steals away his godhood#and him calling himself godlike is kind of a cope LOL#a cope being faced with a problem he was never meant to solve#a cope being faced with what he did to moon#a cope being faced with the rot inside him#oh well.#anyway fuck 5 pebbles i hate that guy#rain world#rain world fanart#rw five pebbles#rain world five pebbles#rw gourmand#rain world gourmand#five pebbles#rain world void worm#rain world ancients#also JUST KIDDING ilu 5p. you suck but i💛u

*puts a fucking dinosaur in the blacksite*
#my art#pressure roblox#roblox pressure#pressure oc#yeah i keep making ocs . help me#jurassic park seems like the kind of shit urbanshade would do but like. way worse and with way more corners cut#which reminds me. i should go see if prehistoric kingdom’s gotten optimized at all#ANYWAY. urbanshade probably had a whole pack of these guys but theyve probably been picked off a bit since the breach.#the above individual is one of the remaining survivors#the hidden arm is probably a bit chewed up :pensive:#its a utahraptor spliced with emperor penguin and orca (+ some internal implants for survivability)#probably trained for combat purposes as well in the case of a breach but#due to the sheer chaos of it none of their trainers really had time to like. organize them

still wasnt done thinking about this fic or maybe I wanted an excuse to draw open space but hey I published a new fic today and maybe you should read it it's called Astrophilia and it's about Daichi getting lost in the unfeeling vastness of the universe
did I write an entire science fiction story and imagine their long distance communicator as a bright red rotary phone? yes. yes I did. here's a version without the dialogue to appreciate the black hole.
#i wouldnt necessary call it MCD but you gotta have a violent level of optimism to think they survive#haikyuu fanfiction

solarpunk/hopepunk. transcendentalism. gardening spades as tools of resistance. mutualistic symbiosis. dandelions growing from cracks in the sidewalk. caring for one another. loving communities built off the backs of pain. visibly mended plush toys. tattoos showcasing old scars. learning how to do things that the people around you can't. animals nesting in abandoned cities. do you see my vision?
#hopepunk#optimism#healing#growth#punk#cpunk#we can survive#i love all of you so much#fuck you the world is a great place#nature is healing

Please try to find some sort of therapy or something because you have So so much more potential and worth than you think you do and its earnestly so saddening to see you resigning yourself to a fate you don't deserve
its ok because its my own fault honestly :[ im going to try to stop complaining now that it's just becoming more and more evident that im just choosing not to take da reins of my own life
#anonymous#skunk mail#im trying to get myself back to optimism#bc there Is a rare potential opportunity for me#but i dont think im going to take it or the other help offered#the stuff i have going on with my family is far too complicated#on top of now thinking my life would be worse if i moved im going to be honest and say i literally dont want to waste 8 hrs of the day if i#can help it.#ill be struggling to keep myself alive much less draw and if my art improvement stagnates even MORE i#dont know whats the point of sticking around#im literally just useless member of society and actively deciding to do so#so obviously im not going to get anything i want nor do i deserve it. im not willing to put#the work in. its too difficult. i dont want anything that much.#its my own fault#idk how ill feel in a few months once ive missed my only chance but its how i feel now#i was so determined and resolved for a few months and was even planning but all it took was one conversation#to bring me back to reality so how would i even survive on my own if im this weak and naïve lol#i dont know.#delete later

Being a human is literally like this weird combo of being okay and not okay that goes on forever except there is also death
#(i'm fine)#(personally) (mostly) (really)#this has just been an absolutely terrible year for our planet and its people and animals#and it's fucking insane that as an american living in relative safety and comfort and experiencing the pleasures and guilt of that...#...i can experience this horrible yet ENTIRELY SURVIVABLE blend of acute pain over so many things at once#including war and genocide and the utter hopelessness of that#and also things like being really really sad that matthew perry's life was so hard and he died#and also so many bad and weird things have happened to family members this year but we mostly have the resources to come together and deal#which is amazing and bolstering and exhausting#and my brain still has space to be excited about writing and numb to writing and angry/impotent about writing#desperate for feedback yet private and retreat-y and weird#always hoping to hit upon The Perfect Thing :-/#and i live in a place that basically is not a democracy any more and also the u.s. is so cursed we've never been what we said we were#so a lot of my own perceived safety is incredibly fragile#but still so much more solid than what the people i am mourning for had#and none of the comparisons make a lick of sense and are in and of themselves deeply unfair#to the point that it's humiliating to feel guilt (making it about me) and simultaneously humiliating that i don't feel guilt *constantly*#and i have therapy this week but also this deep sense that while my therapist will be a fine person to talk to it will feel unuseful#i've always been a muddle of optimism and pessimism and i am very adamant that life is super beautiful and this is precisely why...#...all the violence in the world is so brutally devastating#it's just that the casserole of all these thoughts feels increasingly horrible#and feeling that way is 100% sane#and even intersectional frameworks and intentional attempts at gentleness only get you so far in the grapple#for meaning and for ideas of what to do#so i end up contacting my reps about various awful things#and zooming in and out on my fixations and having excellent days and terrible days#often dependent on what feels like a camera setting i only partially control#and i'm sure i'm not alone in feeling embarrassed that deep empathy and grief for people i've not met somehow ends up being...#...at least a sliver about ME and my little world#about me

#꒰💬꒱ ❝ Dear Diary… ❞#don’t worry why I’m up at 4am I might have been doomscrolling for actual hours but that’s not the point#hi chat. we’re So fucking cooked#well! looks like most of my cautious optimism was in vain#I mean I’m lucking out hardcore by living in a sky-blue state#but. OH BOY#Y’know what. it’s fine. we’ve survived four years with The Orange Guy we can do four more years#and I miiiiiiight have gone on an emotional breakdown induced several post long tangent on my priv#so the worst of my mood is out of my system. kind of#anyways. my fellow muricans stay safe don’t do anything risky to yourselves you can’t live Trump outlive you

haikyuu movie so good i'm gonna watch it 30 more times until it is absorbed into my brain
#I WISH IT WAS A FULL SEASON THO#LIKE AND HOUR AND TEN MINUTES WAS NOTTTT ENOUGH TIME FOR THAT MATCH#i deeply fear the next movie........ like there's no way they're fitting the whole kamomedai/karasuno match AND timeskip there's noooooo way#also The people complaining abt kageyama's devlopment in the nekoma/karasuno match being ignored ur so right#like there are so many parts of his development that could/should have been highlighted#but also i feel like if you understand kageyama's character enough and know exactly where he began and how he's doing now#his development is still present. just represented in a super implicit way#yes he deserved more screen time (no i would not have survived if he had more. he's fucking stunning). but his development is still present#idk i just feel like making that whole match a movie as opposed to a season was a cop out#like the optimal route would have been s5 being the nekoma and kamomedai matches#and then a movie for timeskip#i mean ultimately a full season for each would be best#but if you HAVE to make a movie then sacrifice timeskip#because the first half could be hinata in brazil and the second could be the jackadlers match#and then during the bit after the credits you could have snippets of the olympics#and that would be fine#but chat....... the chances of seeing timeskip animated are looking slim.............#but also How the FUCK are they gonna end the series after kamomedai. like hinata's fever is NOT an ending.#we'll see#volleyball guys
