#release the nerves

[rosielindy]

Another discovery from my local witch doctor. I never knew nerve flossing was a thing but it’s helping me substantially after a week for ulnar, median, and radial. My upper body pain level has gone from an 8 to a 4 (scale 1-10).

This week, I’m looking for similar flossing techniques to address pain in my sits bones, aka my buttocks.

All of this gives new meaning to things that get on my nerves. 😂

just saw someone say Rick Riordan making a TV show is just as bad as anything JKR has done. BFFR you're comparing Rick Riordan trying to make his world more inclusive, changing some parts because of money/time constraints, or just making changes cus he thinks they're needed, to JKR being a terrible person!

I just called my local-ish comic store to ask if they could order the first issue of the New Scaremester comic and the Pride issue, because when I went in a couple weeks ago they only had the second one.

I still bought it, but I've been holding off on reading it. The guy on the phone didn't seem sure they'd be able to get them though, so fingers crossed.

Something that's been on my mind is seeing the idea that in order for smut to be valid to write it has to have a purpose. It has to say something about the characters, it has to serve as a tool for the plot, it has to have some deep meaning beyond the sex acts involved.

And honestly, that's not true no matter how much some very vocal people might insist that smut without a 'purpose' is just porn and porn is shameful to make and consume.

It's okay to write smut because you think the concept is hot. It's okay to write it just because you want to give your readers jerk off material about their favorite characters. It's absolutely, 100% fine to write smut for smut's sake.

And sure, you want it to be in character, you want to write it so that you can't just file the names off and replace them with anyone. But you can just write something because you think character X should fuck character Y in this very specific way and have that be the end of it.

Call it smut, call it porn, call it whatever. Write the stuff you want to write. You don't have to do literary gymnastics in order to make it 'valid' for anyone, and you especially don't have to make excuses to yourself to justify writing it in the first place.

For the WIP ask game, could you tell us about that "chapter 1:"? The lack of information in the title is intriguing me

I am glad my vagueness lured you in! This is my one WIP that isn't fanfic. It's my first attempt at original serial fiction, and something I actually intend to publish/try to monetize via patreon etc. It's exciting and nerve wracking (i love you fanfic but you do not pay the bills)! But at least the story is fun (to me). Very adventure focused, D&D-esque, magitek and also there's a big train. And dragons. (Movie trailer voice) IN A WORLD where magic is performed by artisans and craftspeople working spells and creating powerful artifacts, five Sorcerer Kings rule five cities, but beyond lie ruins hiding secrets and treasures of a bygone age. Pyrrha, an engineer, illegally enters these ruins in order to find the tools that will let her enter the mythical Tower in the center of the world, which has been calling to her in her dreams since childhood. She's looking for secrets and boy howdy, does she find some secrets. Excerpt:

“Ha!” she exclaimed. “Thought you could trap us, bastard.” “What’s going on?” Tim asked. Pyrrha beckoned them over and showed Tim and Remi the inside of the hollowed-out rock. It looked nearly identical to the box locking the door to the ruin, though this device contained several more interlocking gears and what appeared to be a blinking alarm signal.  “It’s a circuit alarm,” she said. “If I’d broken the connection by removing the core in the box, this alarm would have tripped. Odds are something else nasty would have happened too. I’d have to examine the lock more closely, but an incendiary rune or stunning spell might have been smithed into the metal if—” “Just get it done.” Remi folded his arms. “We don’t have all season.” “Fine.” Pyrrha grumbled, fighting down a bit of embarrassment at her over-explaining. It was so easy to do with work this intricate. But now that she understood the mechanism it was simple to dislodge and remove the true core. She took out the now harmless alarm for good measure, slipping it into her pocket. “What do you think you’re doing with that thing?” Remi loomed over her, hand drifting closer to the mace on his hip. Pyrrha swallowed. “Just in case we get over our heads. We can break this, which will imitate breaking the circuit and call for help. I’d rather be arrested than dead.” Remi stared down at her, eyes hard. His hand darted out, quick as a viper, and grabbed her jerkin. She yelped as he dragged her up, bringing her face close to his. The bracers on his wrists hummed with their own potent energies, making her skin tingle. “You betray us,” he hissed. “You’re dead. You hear me, Red?” “Remi!” Tim shouted. Pyrrha heard the rasp of steel being drawn from its sheath. “Put her down.” “I want to hear your answer,” he said, still locking Pyrrha’s eyes with his own. “Did. You. Hear. Me?” Pyrhha nodded. “Yeah. Yeah, I heard you.” “Good.” He released her so suddenly she felt off balance. Only the steady strength of her prosthetic leg kept her from falling over.

[simantopia]

and it's wild to think there is no sims game set after TS2. 'cos sometimes i'd think "and then in S4, crispin would--" and i'm like... oh wait. ts4 is an alternate universe, not a sequel. and TS3 was a prequel. so... we just never rly know what happens beyond TS2 and i guess it's that way forever because TS4 is the new Eternal Game. and tbh, i don't even wanna THINK about S4 crispin. i just KNOW he's less of a cynical cunt and that's no fun.

Do you think he’d have the guts to reach out to her after ttpd?

guys , im sorry, but you need to start using names, there’s 2 men 😭 anyway, if either of them even reached out, pretty sure she’s not responding
