#perisistence

Nobody said it would be easy…

In yesterday’s post I talked about viewing life as a journey and advised that you embrace and enjoy that journey. I also mentioned that the journey might take you through some dark places. Those are the difficult roads that you might hit. I did not say yesterday that making the journey would be easy. There will be difficult stretches along the way. That might involve setbacks to the progress…

Hello...

[apparitionalprincess]

You’re so silent about it

[maghrabiyya]

Today I had to block and cut off someone who has been following me on social media since I was 14 years old, starting on tumblr. All was fine until he started coming to my home without my consent, repeatedly.

Pushed me to meet up with him alone repeatedly, despite me telling him I didn't want to and that it makes me uncomfortable.

Bro was older than me and followed me when I was a kid on here. I didn't realise how weird that actually was until I became an adult myself.

Almost 16 years later he somehow convinced himself he and I knew one another and were friends, despite me not talking to him much at all and even going out of my way to be standoffish in the hopes that he would get the message and leave me alone.

But no. Even after I directly tell him how uncomfortable his behaviour makes me, he perisists.

If you are a minor on this platform, please please please don't allow people older than you are to follow you. Block immediately.

Estate agent doing viewings today is scared of cats and adamant about opening the balcony doors do people can step out on it, which is fine but like, now I'm expected to chase the cats around the flat so you don't have a freak out when they're near you?

If I was armand I'd simply kill my landlord :)))))))))

Hexagram 32 is named 恆 (héng), “Persevering”.

Hexagram 28 is named 大過 (dà guò), “Great Exceeding”.

5th line: perisisting in that virtue, faithfulness is good for the devoted, not so for the attentive.

WTNV quick rundown - 92 - If he had lived

Check out my other rundowns for episodes, shows, book etc here!(or using the tags)

Which came first? The chicken, the egg, or airplanes? Welcome to Night Vale

This episode is about NV's 'National Alternate History Week', in which they celebrate history that could have happened. The Night Vale Historical Society sorts through the local submissions, and the best story gets placed into the elementary school curriculum.

Cecil's submission/story he chooses is wondering what would have happened if Kennedy had lived. Which (according to Cecil) is - first: he would have eaten lunch, he would have gone to Austin, he would have been reelected, he would have pulled the the US out of Vietnam earlier resulting in a different culture landscape and higher population, Jackie Kennedy would have felt no grief (but also be ageless, emotionless, changed).

In 1973: Kennedy is finishing his third term, an embargo in the Middle East results in soaring gas prices (but America is still confident in Kennedy), he saw them through the Cuban Missile Crisis (1962), the Svitz-Franchia Standoff (1967) and the rise of the Blood Space War (1971), he has learnt to multiple himself and visits every single gas station to smile at the long lines of people and fill them with confidence.

He continues to be president through the 70's and 80's where: a bio-pic is made of his life staring mid-level movie star Ronald Reagan (who would soon be washed up), Paul Simon releases his unsuccessful Graceland album about Kennedy's 1982 visit to Graceland, Jackie Kennedy has not aged (may even be younger) and she walks alone at night with anyone who tries to approach pushed back by a faint mist that smells of apple and spice and feels like thousands of needles (witnesses claim her feet don't touch the ground and her arms and inhumanly long).

In modern times, You are our biggest problem and Kennedy (who has been president for decades) wishes to solve you.

In 2080: the coastal regions of the US are being swallowed by the sea, the eighth siege of the great NV temple rages on, the scion of the Dark Order appears, Kennedy brokers a deal with the Sino-Soviet super state to provide safe passage for climate refugees, he says the sea level won't rise any more but it does and millions are displaced, Jackie Kennedy is lying in the rose garden and allowing moss to grow on her feeling like she can almost tell that this alternate history and not what really happened.

Eventually there is the heat death of the universe and everything is reduced down to it's average (beige). The Kennedy's float through space, both vaguely aware that something else was supposed to happen, Kennedy haunted by headaches and vague memories of being shot, Jackie numb to all emotion.

Other alternate histories that were presented this week included: what if Germany had won WWII, what if the South had won the Civil War, what if bathmats were never invented and what if somehow Germany had won the Civil War.

The winner however is that the Beatrix Lohman Memorial Meditation Zone was never built, so it will be demolished to match the new reality.

Weather: "Opposite House" by Cass McCombs

Earlier in the episode Cecil states how bad it would be to lose the meditation zone and that you can go there to be 'relaxed and harvested'.

The Weather Service says that the persistent thunderstorms over west NV might actually be the movements of the Distant Prince. Or just perisistent thunderstorms.

Apparently the moon is jealous of the sun.

OW Josie has fallen and injuried her hip but is recovering well in hospital, despite hospitals being poorly understood. Despite which NV apparently has ghost ambulances and a ghost wing which treats ghost patients and is better quality than the ghost hospital in Pine Cliffs which is a town entirely inhabited by ghosts. Pine Cliffs citizens apparently come to NV's ghost hospital all the time because of this. Cecil says he wishes they'd solve their own problems instead of taken resources away from NV's ghosts.

Stay tuned next for a hypothetical history that we are all making up together, continuously, just by living it. Good night, Night Vale. Good night.

JI WOON AND PHILIP IS CRAZY (in a good way) I need to know how you think. What would this relationship be like and how did they get there

LOOK OK. I just think that Jiwoon is perisistent and someone he percieves as him being unable to "have" drives him to want them even more. I also think their dynamic is fun as i see them as hard opposites, n, u know, opposites attract.

Philip definitely finds Jiwoon's little visits and pesterings incredibly annoying at first, and seeing someone so self absorbed also irks Philip since he's rather down to earth about most things. However, over time, the annoyance fades into acceptance and even a bond and then maybe they start smooching and holding hands and philip likes to read and jiwoon thinks its boring and yeah theyre lovers ok

Tim prowls gotham like a primative human hunting. with endurance and perisistance. they cannot escape him and he will outlast them.

I think that Tim should be in cross country and like to run marathons. Why? Idk it just fits him

He looked at normal track and thought it was too boring so like a psychopath, he chose to run for longer.

Imagine if there was some criminal and they were running away.

Nightwing: Red Robin

*he's a runner he's a track star*

Even with pounds of heavy equipment, he's out running all of them with pure stamina. You think you got rid of him? Nah, you look behind and see that guy behind you, he will win with pure patience, he is inevitable.

All the criminals are scared out of their wits bc of him, Tim does not give up, it is not in his nature

[femmefaggot]

I could also not write a monologue. If I do one it will be very short. I never did a summary on here.

We fought several kitsune taking on the forms of each others' Nemeses. I do not believe they died, however we did get rid of them.

I fixed my feedback status with some Help from Yan. Yan then, in attempting to heal a physical status of mine and rolling Dynamite, managed to heal everyone.

We closed the rifts in the sky, though it was all narrative and we did not spend very much time on it. Taking out the one group mechanically was precedent for us being able to do the rest.

We then saw Calvin riding a Griffin back toward Albion. We follow him, as only three of us are mechanically able to go up against Payne. We find him very drunk and looking more like a normal person. I should ask to clarify, though I assumed this means he is not currently an Avatar. I make him somewhat more sober. He continues to try and drink. I stop him while attempting to talk to him. He told us why he wished to kill Payne. He had a daughter. I do not wish to get further into it. She is perhaps not dead. Her name is Rio.

It seems that I am the one who talks to "enemies" the majority of the time. I have no problem with it, though I do wonder if my other players do at all. They called Peter "the face" and quickly realized that talking with people was evidently his thing. It is likely me as a player.

I cannot tell what exactly is happening. I do not know if he is going to concede and let us deal with Payne or if he will remain another obstacle.

I do now wonder if, provided Calvin does not perisist, the Gatekeepers will be the next one. I hope they are not, though the only other option that is visible to me aside from a case that involves us looking for Rio is going to Payne. We would only have three of us available unless something changes quickly.

Lappland ended the session by yelling at Calvin. I will have to write my monologue just to express my distaste, I believe.

[specialmouse]

If someone sends me a face pic and theyre uggo I just don't reply. There's no good way to tell someone it's not gonna work out because you don't like how they look. Better let them take the hint and if theyre perisistent you can be blunt or just block. I ask faceless profiles who msg me for face pic right away so I don't struggle finding a way to back out

"...mother."

Tiny arms outstretched, Sosuke looks rather comical staring up at his trainer, and ever present mother-figure, with such a serious expression, all the whole decked out in a tiny letterman jacket.

Jun cocks an eyebrow at the sight, confused, and oddly amused, but rightfully a bit worried by such a sight, so she sinks to a crouch, throwing the ends of her dorm uniforms scarf over her shoulders as she did so.

Still, Sosuke holds out his stubby arms, ever blank faced.

"Mother, I have been violated," He states indigent at her lopsided smile, nonetheless he doesn't protest when she brings him into her arms, simply angles his wide eyes upwards, "I have been violated for a Pigeons whimsical fancy, and fashion, mother, mother we must estract revenge."

Continuing from the tags of my last post!

Oz can't have kids of his own, so any child he could potentially raise would most likely be mortal! He just doesn't know if he could take raising a kid and then outliving them, thinking about it just freaks him out

Im not a size two, and I'll never be a size two. A few days ago I've come to realize, just because the numbers on the scale aren't going up nor down- I AM HEALTHY. I was diagnosed with PCOS at 14 years old. Dealing with it has been the bane of my existence until a few days ago. Something so small to a "normal" woman, I felt like a won a huge feat for me (I won't go into details). My consistent exercise and semi decent diet are paying off. I am more dedicated than ever. To fix myself, for myself, so I can give more to those around me. I have PCOS, but it doesn't have me. That is all. . .
