Ongoing MCAS recovery update:

Took a bite out of a gluten free chocolate cupcake and didn’t die 👍

nights watch au but it’s just they work at a movie theater and the enlistment depletion is just streaming services but the white walkers come (barbenheimer) and they suddenly all have to learn how to do their jobs

Sometimes you have to sit outside in the sun for a few minutes and eat a fruit while looking at green things. To combat the horrors.

Me when I find a new fun video game: Yay!

Also me: Oh no...

the thing abt the surgery is that yes I do get litle moments of being ecstatic it finally happened but also I just feel Normal now. like my base state for all my life up until last week was worry, horror, and panic when i'd occasionally remember the very unwanted thing my body was capable of, spiraling into what ifs on potential conflicts in my life and future... and now i just feel Not Stressed Out All the Time. Normal.

okay, I'm crowdsourcing advice for a minute, so bear with me and please lend some words if you have any:

I want to get out of the house more. Like, on a regular basis. Weekly, maybe. Preferably, I would like to be interacting with people—the same people—every time, for... like... accountability, but also because I am hoping to put myself out there as the 21st century's most neurotic platonic Casanova. Uh. Making a friend or more out of this would be desirable. But I think if I go out with the intention of making a friend, I will be disappointed.

So. I want to go do something, for that something's own sake. I don't want to go be fake once a week hoping to get a friend out of it.

However, the beautiful state of Iowa is a bit cultureless, and I am too introverted and easily overwhelmed for this world (e.g. going to bars is probably not gonna be my thing). So.... I guess.... any suggestions? opinions? thoughts on making friends in general, or finding good activities as an introverted adult, in general?

oh yeah, also: I am poor. that's a factor. so. signing up a class or similar is not a great option right now.

what the heck, I'll add a silly poll for fun:

genuinely cannot believe i haven't made an avian transformer oc yet given that i love birds sooo here! this is taloncry. he's an old, bitter mech who has a serious soft spot for rookies. taloncry was forged without an altmode and it's a big source of pride for him that he only has one form! (more info ab him in tags!)

he's also a lot bigger than you think he is. like a lot.

when you have psychic powers this is just what you do instead of blowing up hot dogs in the microwave

Thinking about River affectionately calling the Doctor her “madman in a box” only after he's called her his “bespoke psychopath,” and vice versa. They each were called these words by the other before ever using them to describe the other.

Thinking about the way they defy reality for each other. How modern psychiatry elevates objective reality to gatekeep full participation in society, yet they shatter objective reality with love — “I can’t let you die without knowing that you are loved.” and “You are always here to me and I always listen and I can always see you.”

Thinking about “What's the mad fool talking about now?” and how Gallifrey ostracizes those labelled mad, going so far as to see it as failure in children. Thinking about “A child is not a weapon!” “Give us time.” and how Kovarian equates psychopath with weapon as a tool of dehumanization and control.

Thinking about the way the psychiatric-industrial complex inflicts violence upon those who deviate from psychosocial norms. How their relationship was born in violence, but of madness — not madness in a post-Enlightenment framework of opposition to Reason, but madness as radical compassion that doesn’t demand so-called rationality — “Every time you've asked, I have been there.”

Thinking about how neither of them chose “psychopath” or “madman,” but they both own those words as instruments in their own agency.

Oh yeah sure Bruce made a glass case with his dead son’s clothing in it and that was weird and all. But what about when his next son copied him and made FOUR glass cases, one for each person he was trying to resurrect and/or clone? That. that was weird.

PSA: Do you feel low grade exhausted and sad and kinda stupid all the time? Do you also have a period? Maybe you are depressed for no discernible reason...but maybe you should get your iron checked! This post brought to you by my having been on the brink of a nervous breakdown thinking all my energy and my ability to focus and create had up and left me and I was just getting old and tired and it was awful...and then discovering I'm actually catastrophically anaemic.
