tiny hiatus, maybe? 🥺 i put off making this post because i was convincing myself i was just gonna wake up one morning afternoon and miraculously get back into the swing of things but that's not a thing that happens so... this is just me officially taking the break i'm already on lmao. the holidays are fucking rough and i literally just do not have the extra energy (if you've sent me a message or checked in - i see you and i love you, i'm currently searching for the spoons. once i have a spare i'm coming for u). i'm putting some hope in the new meds, working on sorting out insurance for the new year, and it's a hectic ass time in general so i need to give myself permission to step away. i'll be back soon and hopefully feeling more like me so we can get back to writing! thank y'all sm for being patient! xoxo

Hello everyone ! I wanted to put out a quick statement regarding the unfortunate and complex issues that have been occurring in the RPC and on my dash the last several days. I want to start off by addressing anon hate and anon messaging. I do not respect it. That includes continuous dialogue on anon. I think it's better and healthier to communicate privately with people. But, I also want to express that while I have that belief and stand by it I now will no longer be responding to or allowing myself to get swept into drama or the histories of other peoples problems. That means not dictating or making opinions on how others stir up shit. I've decided to remove myself from it all completely.

Other people's histories and dramas are not mine to own. I have made careful choices with my blog and how I operate. And to be frank, there have been many instances now where comments, messages (anon or not), and the like have been misconstrued, purposely chopped up, and at times warped or taken completely out of context. I think when problems arise everyone is quick to emotion. I am also guilty of that. Having been on hiatus from the RPC for a couple of years and making a return only recently in the past few months, I've lost sight of my mission to steer clear of drama whether it be liking posts or adding comments to post.

It is no longer my place.

While I stand by my opinions and beliefs (and of course I am still open to private conversations on ideas because we all continue to grow), I will not stand for callout posts, witch-hunting, and vilifying. That's to all parties. That's to all participants. It's just not who I am. It's not what I agree with. I believe in communication and kindness and also taking a big whopping step back to look at the bigger picture. I recommend those that are hurt, emotional, or dealing with their emotions to take a huge step back and please think before we speak or type or message.

I apologize to anyone who has had to deal with the controversies going on. I know our dash's are full of negativity and it is only fueled by proxy by every like, comment, and every bit of participation that it receives. I know it's a lot. And that is another reason I will no longer participate in anyone else's wars because It's not my place. And it's unfair to a lot of my very kind and sensitive mutuals who come here just to have fun and to write about their characters.

So with all due respect, I will only be roleplaying here and investing in fun and friendly interactions. I will only be promoting positivity. And I will only be investing time with those who are interested in the same mission.

Much love,

Lore

Life update under the cut. Cw illness.

I'd like to start this off with an apology for all the threads and asks I still have to answer. I promise I'm not ignoring or abandoning any of them, but I also can't push myself to answer when I don't have the energy to because I know I will just burn out faster.

Now, onto the actual update. As some of you may know, I've been sick for quite some times now, and it doesn't seem to be getting better. I'm not able to get a doctor to check me out because of family reasons, but I'm hoping that taking it easier than I have will help. I'm doing everything I can to come back full swing, I promise.

What does this mean for my blogs? Well, it means I'm going to go on a semi-hiatus. I'll still be around to answer messages and send in memes, and maybe participate in dash comms, but I will not be posting anything. My queue is paused and I plan to reactivate it after I've finished all emptied my drafts and inbox.

I'll be working on doing so whenever I feel I can, which means you may not see a response to your thread or ask for months, and I deeply apologize for that.

Curate your space. If this news that it may be months before I start posting again upsets you, please do as you see fit.

Again, I'm sorry for the delays. Thank you for sticking with me this far, and I will try to fully be back soon.

reminder that its okay to be selfish sometimes <3 its okay to want things for yourself and take them. thats a normal thing to want

[hero-of-skies]

If you support urkraine just know your supporting, applauding and have no problem with a country, a land that is part of russia by the way, but i digress you got no problem with nazis.

[diverse-hearts]

//So erm with the move...my tracker for canon threads somewhat broke...so the plan's to readd threads as I reply to them from replies sent in - cause the thing gets moody if I try and reroute things lol. Soooo - don't worry if you don't see your thread for this blog in the tracker atm - I shall add it when I can!

[ever-winter]

HI! So I was really wanting to mini spam all my followers but anxiety is a bitch and has decided this is a bad idea for me - outside of the usual suspects that is. Soooo can people like/comment if it’s totally okay for me to just randomly invade your inboxes? You are never expected to answer all I send! It’s more like giving options to get those muses moving, you know? Anyways it’ll be a big help if you could let me know! <3

Drowning Facts

For... no particular reason. (Lying).

Let's start with this: the average amount someone can hold their breath is around 30 seconds to 2 minutes. (Although one could train to hold their breath for longer). After that, the body automatically tries to breath normally.

Within 3 minutes of not breathing, most people pass out.

In drowning incidences, one of the obvious outcomes is death. However, after they are unconscious it doesn't necessarily mean they are dead yet. As said before, the body automatically tries to breath again--so, if one is taken out of the water during that time, they should be fine.

Well... aside from troubles with remembering things, poor motor coordination, and general poor judgement. They could also have swollen abdomens and vomiting, blueish skin, fast or slow heartbeat, weak pulse, coughing, increased breathing, and the obvious shortness of breath. Chest pain is also an occurrence, as well as lethargy and change of skin color. (Lethargy in the medical field is pathological sleepiness/drowsiness).

Another symptom, if the person was drowning for longer than 15 minutes, is pink froth that may come out of the victim's mouth or nose as a result of "hemolysis," which is a destruction of red blood cells. Less then 15 minutes the froth will be closer to white; longer than 15 minutes, around the 50 minute mark, the froth is more brown in color.

If the victim was drowning for more than 5 minutes, a coma/a death is possible due to neurons in the brain dying.

Also, just to be clear, dry drowning is technically a thing, but it has a lot of misconceptions.

Mainly, lungs after drowning sometimes don't have water in them, which causes this confusion–but what really happens is a process called "laryngeal spasm." This is when the lungs close up to not let excess water in. So when someone is drowning, it's less the overflow of water in the lungs and more of lack of oxygen to the brain.

Relatedly, secondary drowning is the less accurate term of secondary injury. This happens when the laryngeal spasm doesn't happen in time, allowing water to get into the victim's lungs. Too much of that can cause breathing problems and lung damage 6 to 12 hours later.

One example of a condition that this could cause is called pulmonary edema. It includes excess fluids in lungs and swelling.

Symptoms of drowning show up either immediately after or up to 24 hours later depending on which symptom one is talking about. For this reason, after someone nearly drowns it is vitally important they get a doctor to check up on them.

-. FORTUNATELY i'm alive, work's been keeping me busy & tired but i shall see to it that i RETURN~ i opened this text post and realized i've completely forgotten how to be on tumblr, how--

unfortunately for all of us, my brain has been trying to concoct a New Guy, and unfortunately he's gay and annoying? and unfortunately he has such a nasty personality as defense mechanism and unfortunately he can't even be loved into healing because if you're mean to him he's 'hehe i was RIGHT then' and if you're nice to him he's 'don't you fucking try to scam me i'm not stupid' so he's hopeless and my little princess~

// right so- My birthday is a literal week from now (sept 12th) so on that day I won't be around much anywhere. I'm going to try queuing up responses and answers to asks while also sending out the rest of the starters and asks for this post, so don't be afraid to send things or @ me until then.

Also I finally started following the tags people made for me, namely "#fragmented tales" so i should see things a little faster when not mentioned!

Also I recently somehow picked up a couple LoP roleplayers so I just wanna warn you folks that my only LoP muse, Simon Manus, is VERY selective for interactions! Sorry if you followed for him! //

Tw; Illness

Feeling really sick right now, showing the same symptoms as when I had covid and, after trying to push through and do things until close friends told me to step back, and- well- that's what I'm going to do.

I'll still send in asks and gather drafts, but until I am feeling better I'm going to focus on resting so I can come back and give you all the top quality you deserve.

Thank you for putting up with me, and I'll try to be back by the end of September at least! ♡
