Just say no

and I know for a fact that every deep conversation, every song, every book, every walk in nature, every ten second reflection while the coffee brews, every cry session, every laugh, every notes app rant, and every indulgence is revealing the next layer of yourself that you haven't met yet. and sometimes that is scary, other times beautiful — yet very necessary so that your soul and mind and belief is challenged and it rebirths itself with much more clear sense of what you are.

it terrifies me how doom scrolling is going to delay this process in most of us.

Brennan: *narrating* ...and third he gave him a sword named Wavebreaker.

Aabria: *gasp* SHUT UP! sorrysorrysorry

🤣🤣🤣 I love when the cast has the exact same reaction I do. What an exciting moment!

if we're looking at the magnus archives through the lens of addiction parallels, jon's descent is wonderfully done.

and it's almost even more interesting to look at the magnus protocol through the lens of addiction as well.

it's almost as if alice is a recovering addict, she hasn't had a tobacco/cigarettes (read: the horrors) in a while but she still works at the smoke shop (the oiar).

She gets her friend, Sam, a job at the smoke shop too because she's lonely and he needed a job. Except, Sam has started showing interest in the products. He wants to try them. Alice is very adamant that they should not try the products and should just do their jobs.

This works for a while, until Sam gets a new girlfriend. Then, Alice starts to feel the urge to relapse. Suddenly, the cigarettes are calling to her again. And unbeknownst to her, Luke is probably also dabbling in smoking and probably exposing her to it.

It's made even more ironic because as they stock their product and take inventory, almost every single product has a big red warning label saying: THIS SUBSTANCE IS ADDICTIVE AND COULD CAUSE HARM.

i'm sorry jet siquiliak i've been looking back sooo much and definitely not only to ensure i have not walked this path before

Overly Sarcastic Productions is like crack cocaine for autistic people. (I'm autistic people)

Just Cecil and Carlos

That is all

The Magnus Archives is a fucking pipeline, I swear. At first, I was like:

"I don't listen to podcasts...not since I listened to a few episodes of Chuckle Sandwich...they're far too long...I dont know if I'm going to even finish this..."

*listens to the entire podcast*

"Holy fuck, that was awesome. I'm obsessed!"

*listens to it again, finishing in less than a month*

"Wow, that was awesome, but who is this Arthur Lester I keep hearing of from adjacent fandoms? I think it's funny that me and the main character share the same name...Maybe I'll check it out."

*sees the length of the episodes*

"Wow, this is going to take a while..."

*gets caught up with Malevolent in two weeks by listening to it at work*

"Holy shit, that was awesome, but what is this Welcome to Night Vale thing I heard of one time a few years ago in a passing conversation I have barely any recollection of?"

*listens to WTNV*

"Oh fuck, I have an addiction to audio dramas now"

Post Script:

I've learned that it is very easy to continuously listen to podcasts for lengthy amounts of time at work, given the fact that I work 8 hour shifts stocking and recovering grocery aisles. That being said, if you ever see a short emo guy restocking shelves in a random fucking store with one earbud in, always assume that he is feeding his horror podcast addiction, especially if his name is Arthur. Exclusively if his name is Arthur.

Because there is only one person I know with that name.

And it is me.

Tumblr User Arthur "Ikkaros Archangel (Archangeliccc)" Gaylord IV Avatar of the Whore Goddamn Motherfucking Jurgen Leitner...the First...my official title...

Now, I have to go unlock all of the characters in hit game from 2007, Sonic and the Secret Rings so I can play as Shadow the Hedgehog in party mode. (Unrelated to the above post)

[dogsliampaynedoesntinstagram]

liam seems to be stuck in a bad circle and it is honestly really sad: admits he has addiction problems but claims that he is all better now, gets a new gf and a new dog, moves to a new place, splits up with the gf/abandons the dog, spirals into addiction, rinse repeat

I agree it's really sad anon - I have a slightly different perspective on the cycle that Liam is stuck in. I think the starting point is distress. I think Liam is very distressed a lot of the time. He responds to that distress by seeking oblivion in substances. His distress is temporarily alleviated, but he behaves in ways that cause him and other people more distress. Eventually his consumption of substances causes too many problems for himself and other people and he starts a period of abstinence (I assume most of these are proceeded by periods of rehab, but they might not be).

Stopping drinking and taking drugs doesn't address the reason he was seeking oblivion. When he abstains from drugs and alcohol - either he replaces them with some other way of seeking oblivion (exercise has been one that he's mentioned more than once) - or he white knuckles it. But eventually the distress is too much - and he seeks oblivion again.

He's been describing this cycle in pretty much every interview for years.

I hope one day he'll find some support that will help him address the underlying distress. I think until he does, we won't see any changes.

I’ve pavlov dogged myself into thinking about the penumbra podcast every time i smell fabuloso, specifically the purple one, bc every time i clean my grammy’s house i listen to tpp and i use fabuloso on her floors and i’ve done this for about 4 years.

[randomfoggytiger]

Y'know who Fail Better needs as a guest appearance (other than Gillian Anderson?)

The one and only Mr. Ferguson.

Interview here.

(And a collection of David's first-- and continued appearances-- on Craig's show here.)

Jet was there for him. He might not have been in the room, but when Juno was standing on the precipice of a major relapse, Jet's voice was there for him. Just like Juno had been there for Jet.

[getinthemuseum]

No one will care about this but he's important to me <33

AC:PC Arthur Lester, the man, the guy, he's so widdle. (Featuring Cat!John Earrings which I literally just spent 2 quid on, just to make him).

Can we please make more animal crossing x malevolent collabs, I need it in my life.

[rice-n-honey]
