#our words

[altered-diaries]

Hey, if your system struggles with communication, try speaking out loud with them if you can.

Communication in my system is very sporadic and we usually don't say more than a few words to each other most of the time. I've just started this as an experiment of sorts. This is my second day doing it and I already feel the effect of it.

Personally, I suppress myself out of habit, and speaking aloud (at the risk of sounding crazy to my family) feels like I am allowing myself to be who I am instead of worrying what others think. It feels like a breath of fresh air.

At first my headmates were just kind of staring at me like I was a crazy person too, haha. But then they started warming up to it a bit. I'm actually having short conversations now. Most of the time I'm not sure exactly which headmate I'm talking to, and other times they withdraw and leave me mumbling to myself, but that's okay! Baby steps!

Sul walked out of the house into a twilight of uncertain winds that started and stopped. He held out his hand for a spring rain that did not fall.

Getting back into my craft after taking a break does feel wonderful. I never really stopped or anything, I just couldn't have it at the forefront of our mind.

It feels good to be getting back into it to where I'm actively practicing once more. The vibes are lovely.

i’m gonna say something controversial yet brave: sexuality labels are a convenient tool we use to define something that is undefinable

[captainjonnitkessler]

The second you start talking about some mysterious "they" that are controlling society in some fashion, you are engaging in dangerous conspiratorial thinking even if you're being woke about it. "They" did not institute the 40 hour work week specifically so you would be too tired to revolt. "They" did not invent the sleek minimalist aesthetic in order to crush the spirit of art in the common people. "They" are not pushing mediocre media into the mainstream in order to poison people's critical thinking skills.

Your best case scenario after that is you talk to someone who actually knows what the fuck they're talking about and you get embarrassed because you can't answer basic questions about your own ideology because you never learned anything past "the ruling class/capitalists/politicians are making things bad and if we got rid of them the bad things would all go away!"

Your worst case scenario is obviously the woo-to-fascist pipeline and you end up believing Jews are poisoning American food supplies with GMOs in order to turn us all into beta cucks, so like . . . maybe just stop blaming "them" before you fall down that route.

Obligatory round of disclaimers: Yes, sometimes people do bad things. Be specific about exactly who is doing what instead of ascribing it to some vague group of shadowy elites. Yes, sometimes things in society are bad. Learn to identify the root causes of complex social issues instead of assuming that they're actually extremely simple to fix and we're just not doing it because of some vague group of shadowy elites. Yes, minimalism isn't for everyone. Learn that some people don't share your tastes and get the fuck over it for the love of god.

"breakfast" a tma s5 animation thing

audio on:333

dawg can't even fry me an egg in this eyeconomy

[VD: A Magnus Archives animation done in orange and teal titled "Pusryčiai" (meaning: "breakfast"). Mellow music plays as Martin cracks two eggs into a frying pan. He turns away to throw the shells while the pan sizzles, and when he returns with a spatula, a "boom" sound effect plays as Martin recoils with comic disgust.

The egg yolks have been replaced by human eyeballs. Martin stares at them for a moment. He then pokes at the egg with the spatula, producing a squelching sound, and one of the eyes blinks with another gross wet sound. Martin goes from disgusted to comically sad and disappointed, and he fades away before the setting does. The video ends on the words "darė Skaistė" (meaning: made by Skaistė) and a quick shot of an eyeball. End VD]

Is there a word for feeling 'phantom touches' from other headmates?

Ellie was co-con with me at the time. I had to get up from my chair to grab something and because I was comfy, I didn't want to. I sighed and tipped my head back in exasperation and it was like Ellie was standing behind the chair, and when I leaned back she kissed my forehead. It was like she was in headspace, but in the physical world too, like a spirit hovering behind me or something.

I was surprised but it was such a sweet, encouraging gesture. I'm not sure what to call this experience. If there's no word for it yet then "phantom touches" sounds like the best description.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Butterfly flutter Champagne

a million bubbles

racing through my veins

Quickly and lightly

My head spins

Out of control

I’m drunk thinking of you

Ever since you told me your name

I knew my life

was never gonna be the same again

Tonight babe

my heartbeat's out of control

Falling in love with you
