hey guys… we all know that it’s okay for mithrun to have a caretaker for the rest of his life, right? that even after he heals and potentially regains his desires he will probably still need support?? that the goal of healing is not to become a “normal person”, but to build skills to navigate the world in a way that accommodates your disability??? that relying on the people around you is not a failure, but proof of your desire to live????
#i’ve seen multiple posts the last couple weeks saying that post-canon fan works that show mithrun w/ a caretaker#are ‘wrong’ because they imply that he will never overcome his trauma#there’s something more to be said about the difference in the perception of/expectations for mithrun’s recovery#depending on whether you read him as an allegory for depression or an allegory for chronic (physical) illness#both are valid btw - it just may change the way you headcanon his future (especially if you live with something similar yourself)#but that’s for another post that i will probably never make#dunmeshi#dungeon meshi#dungeon meshi spoilers#dunmeshi spoilers#mithrun#mithrun of the house of kerensil

they deserved better idc 😐
#it was so cool seeing the sign language and isha being mute was never something that needed fixing#she found a home and jinx found a reason to live#i know people are saying jinx survived because of the scene with Caitlyn but like...#why would jinx do that? she wanted to die this whole season she wanted to die at the beginning of the episode & that depression never faded#her escaping through the air vents implies a will to live#something jinx did not have#i thought it felt like the ending of ep 7 in the season one#trying to kill herself with ekko cause she didnt want to die alone. she had warwick when she pulled out & detonated one of her monkey bombs#like I'd love it if she was alive and left cause yea fuck Piltover get outta there honey!#and Isha's sacrifice meant nothing. she's just not mentioned at all we didnt even see Sevika's reaction to her death...#not dc#arcane#arcane spoilers#jinx arcane#isha arcane#tw suicide mention#the ending with Caitlyn felt like another moment of her and Vi having no idea the severity of Jinx's mental health issues#vi was upset she didnt wanna fight and go make change and shit and never mentioned the ''my sister wants to kill herself''#as if jinx wasn't in a depressive state every time we saw her in that cell.#and her removing herself from the equation so the others can be happy is ??????#so i guess she was a jinx to her family??? that she was the problem? its a frankly gross message to send with a suicidal character#that yes actually your loved ones will be better off without you in the picture you complicate things

"It's been a year, I feel so heavy... Mama, will this feeling ever stop?"
“Mijo. It hurts. But you have so many people who love you. We can help you carry that feeling and one day it might not feel as heavy.”
(Dialogue by @childlikegoblinqueen, with some smol additions by me)
#the owl house#toh hunter#hunter noceda#camila noceda#for Flapjack#toh edits#loz's edits#my notes: I may be having an unpopular opinion after Dana said Willow would cut his hair short again..but --#I think he'd only make that step after he hits the 1-year mark. I've felt extremely similar numbness/depression that lasted almost a year#I'm not sure he'd have the focus to be proactive to change his hair so quickly. coz everything will be a reminder: he may not see the point#anyhow yea it's sweet to think of how respectful the others will be to him. asking him if he wants to take part during the first anniversar#the house wouldn't be decorated. he'd feel bad that they can't have as much fun as they apparently otherwise would#but obvs they insist they are very willingly dialing things down a lot and are also sad and grieving#but the key here is..aesthetically he's wearing a red sweater. that counts for something (thematically). for a reason

Feel like a creep!!! (less that i give, more that you want me)
#nsbu#russell feeld#never stop blowing up#midnight draws#d20#dimension 20#first of all. this is my tank top thesis. i think it always needs to be comically slutty. how far can we push it#second. as always allys character has captivated me despite the lack of serious or clear arc rn. TIMOTHY PART 2...maybe thats part of it lo#caption is edited from Light the Way by Mikki ekko. song that made me start drawing is Heat Lightning mitski if that helps you see the vibe#idunno theres something quietly depressing about him just as there is for the rest of the cast (i say. talking about the comedycrazy season#BUT.....stagnancy and emotional avoidance and the bandaid fix of a hookup. nothing i can do....not much i can change....#i think hes a little like tom cruise. overwhelming friendliness and nothing behind the eyes <----- words of a normal person

things that have me fine and normal on this friday evening
#LIKE AARRKGJDKGHDFHGHFG#these passages are so similar i just#head in hands#esp about the 'heart' aspect of ma and esen and how it's described soo similarly#and yet it comes from completely opposite places#like esen is kind bc he has no reason not to be. he has never been hurt in his life he's a posterchild he's everything he should be#while ma has been hurt again and again and again and yet she's kind and in this absolute Shitshow it's an act of defiance.#something that the world cant take away from her#esen's willingness to see the best in people also circles back into Obtusiveness and hurting the ppl he loves#he's so sure that baoxiang and his father could be reconciled that he does not see how much resentement and pain baoxiang was feeling#he's so sure that ouyang is only the best that he sees in him that he never rlly considers this guy got his entire family murdered#and was mutilated and everyone treated him as subhuman#while for ma her kindness is just something that hurts Her :(((#she cant stop feeling she cant stop caring about people even that shitstain bastard little guo :((#she even feels empathy for OUYANG when she first meets him :(((#ma babygworl your love will change the course of this depressing ass course of Events just hang in thereee :(((#tre reread#send post

hellooo, i really like your 'i bet my life' animatic and the first frames always make me cry, so i rendered it :D
Ohhh... Now you made me want to animate it... just look how beautiful it might look with these colors...
#Cass fanart tag#Cass fanart tag not mine#Nnnghhh colors#In my head it was more to the pale colors#To set a d e s t r o y I n g mood#Something to be depressed#Something to wait for#But you made it bright and it kind of changes the mood#When they meet it will be more of hopeful

Jennifer nearly jumped into the water / and she was tired like no one's ever been tired
#myart#wesley crusher#jennifer is on her way home. then she remembers her life is like a nightmare!!!!#geniunelyyyy thinking about the post-first duty years of wesleys life is so miserable.#he killed his best friend and ruined his friendship with everyone else and lost picards respect (the only thing he ever cared about)#and then you just. dont hear about him at all for 2 years.#trying to capture the extremely specific existential dread of knowing something is deeply wrong in your life but not being able to change.#JUST THE LOOK OF A YOUNG MAN WHOS PROFOUNDLY UNHAPPY AND DOESNT EVEN KNOW WHY!!!#the quote from that novel. where he says “jaxa knew better than the rest of us the only way to escape this thing was to die”. ITS SICK!!#like leaving starfleet was not even on his radar until journeys end. he didnt even consider that as an option. so what could he do.#man. theres a reason for the prominently placed golden gate bridge. jennifer nearly jumped into the water.... cuz she got no way to get out#the photos in the bg are him and picard. jack. two of joshie (the ski tripppppp) him and bev and the entire nova squadron up top#do i think he would have his room this nicely decorated while horribly depressed NO!!! it was just for the compostion of the piece#like trying so hard to keep up appearances. being surrounded by pictures of all the people who love him and still not able to get out.#some of the papers lying around the desk are like. intended to be letters to bev that he just gave up on writing.#OKAY sorry i just wanted to finish this before i leave tomorrow. i spent such a stupid amount of time on this. never again#you people should always talk to me forever about my friend wesley . im soooo normal. lies facedown on floor#OH AND THE VERY SPECIFIC. EMOTION. LYING ON BED IN FULL UNIFORM. WE'VE ALLLL BEEN THERE.

“We didn’t want to notice”
#them avidly ignoring his depression is something I’ll never get past#Litterally EVERYONE seeing a visible change in him and ignoring it#i feel like he cried out for help a lot in the 125 chapter but they were all like ‘huh’ and moved on#he had so many memories he was starting to forget the past and present and mix them up#I’m gonna cry thinking abt this bye#eren jaeger#attack on titan#eren#shingeki no kyojin#aot#eren yeager#anime#mikasa ackerman#levi#jean kirstein#connie springer#hange zoe#armin arlert

starting to feel my enjoyment of cooking seeping back in after a long period of intense burnout that had me really slogging along preparing meals with gritted teeth for a good month there. i credit the return of this spark to the much needed break i took on our 3 day vacation that resulted in us eating solely theme park food. while delicious, in all its greasy overpriced glory, i found myself missing the kitchen. so last night for dinner i made heavily spiced chicken wings with crushed peppercorns and garam masala that rendered slowly in its own fat while roasting in the oven, resulting in flavorful charred crisp skin and a really juicy bite. we picked them clean over steamed rice with lime and scallions. i also baked a loaf of marbled pumpkin and dark chocolate bread yesterday for my neighbor as a thank you for doing me a favor last week. it looked delicious. the crumb was tender and plush and velvety, the spiced ginger molasses pumpkin batter swirling alongside the bitter dark chocolate espresso batter, with puddles of dark chocolate bubbling across its top. it looked so lovely i whipped up a second one for us to have for ourselves that's in the oven now, i think it could be a really good breakfast pastry for us this week.
#ugh it feels sooooooooo good to be enjoying cooking again#it was so bad the last like month or so i just#have been sooooo burnt out#it's genuinely insane what a 3 day vacation can do to reset you :(( it makes me sad lol#i wish that everyone could rest to their hearts content forever#i think i am someone who is extremely prone to burnout and i need about quadruple the amount of quiet alone resting time#that the average person does#so when i get burned out its like excruciating to pull myself out of it again#but im also the primary cook of my household so there isn't really time to take a break and recharge and find my joy for it because#we have to eat lol#3 times a day#every day#forever#BUT#i am feeling so much better about things now after making that dinner and baking a little bit#its feeling soooo autumnal around here lately too which helps#the changing of the seasons is so good for my cooking motivationg#idk#i was feeling pretty depressed that i was starting to resent cooking for a while there since when i enjoy it it's like#life-giving#soul sustaining#wonderful hobby that gives my life purpose and meaning#and it was breaking my heart that i wasn't feeling that way anymore#but i can feel myself coming back#writing about food helps me too#something about describing it#and sharing it with other people who are delighted by it#makes me enjoy it a little extra#sigh#i feel like im returning to myself finally !!!

wanted to adapt the google search results a gay woman got in a japanese drama "tsukuritai onna to tabetai onna" which is good btw.
#witch hat tag#orufrey#the most light and gentle version of flirting-like behaviour of all time - a mutual passing thing - a peaceful dance through the long years#a way to work you out.. a way to express something about myself. all these steps are leading up to that beautiful magic#that you read about once. but actually we've been making it all this time... many many steps to this wonderful recipe.#the only non-perfect & non-fated thing about them is that oru is gay but (imo) qif could easily be transfem at any time. don't test him#oru being a woman wouldnt change anything for qif but oru is gay as hell.. However if qif was a woman then it'd be fine anyway no doubt.#oru would give in his membership to the Gay Men's Picnic Club group he goes to and embark on this life instead..many such cases#also i was typing “am i gay” into google when drawing tsukutabe fanart to check what google looks like#and “am i depressed” was the autofill for “am i”. qif's life is like: maybe he would have looked up something like oru did#but he got a bit distracted and started reading about cptsd instead which seemed more pertinent. sometimes childhood goes this way <3#anyway Tsukuritabe..Kinou nani tabeta...And witch hat kitchen.... the trio of gentle silly 30+ gay couple situations..ohh..#orufrey are the combo of those. like tsukutabe they aren't together yet. like kinou nani tabeta they are a long-term couple. beautiful#i will never let go of them. drawing this has cheered me up. they are with me

Sometimes your Mental Illness™ is kicking your ass and all you can do is offer the first hot, non-leftover meal you managed to prep in the day at 10:30 pm to Apollo & ask for help getting to *and* getting through your appointment tomorrow and that's okay
#the first thing i offered over the past two or three days b/c OOH boy this depression has HANDS#gonna be talking to my psychiatrist about changing meds b/c i think i've finally developed a tolerance to mine & im already on the high dose#so i dont really want to up it any more than it already has been (which is what she suggested last appointment)#i usually at least offer at hot meals but i didnt have the energy for that even#it doesnt help that im recovering from a big work presentation where i ran tech (aka keeping the powerpoints & other visual aids running)#all. day. which *i* offered to do but that doesnt make it any less tiring#...i also think i forgot to offer something to hermes that i was meaning to. gonna have to do that#i *was* planning on doing a tarot check-in on friday but uh. im definitely not in the right emotional headspace for that atm#gonna have to wait for when i can do more than lie in bed all day#listen to your body & brain folks. it's okay if all your energy has to go into riding something out#& you dont have the energy for all the rituals/prayers/offerings/etc that you usually do#coriander says#helpol#hellenic pagan#hellenic polytheism#hellenic community#apollo#my post#mental health cw#depression cw#ive been offering the steam from hot meals to hestia too ofc b/c. you know. first & last#it felt weird not mentioning that somewhere#i *do* offer to just her or to her 'and all the deathless gods of olympus' too

i have a mustache theory
that is not just "the mustache is gay", though it does end up there! and i just want to put it out there in case i am SO right so that i can refer back to my genius lol.
so, walk with me here for a bit. in 7x04, when buck and eddie are talking about tommy out on the sewer call, eddie mentions the chevelle, that we have never, not once, ever heard about, that he apparently just has. now, i think we can safely assume that eddie didn't just go out and buy a vintage car to work on in all the years he's been in LA, but they did speak about i very casually, so i think it most likely it belonged to his grandfather, and after he passed it just kind of belongs to the family, and eddie enjoys working on it.
a few weeks ago we got some bts photos of a lot with vintage cars, and eddie's truck in the background, so it's likely we might actually see him working on it in s8.
now, remember eddie is named after his grandfather, edmundo, and it's likely that they look a lot alike. so he might have gotten comments about that the entire time he's been an adult. and you know what isn't unreasonable to imagine edmundo sr might have had? a mustache.
SO, eddie might try and emulate him by getting the mustache, working on the car, maybe leaning into the masculinity of it, right? maybe idealizing him a little bit. but at the same time, under the surface, eddie is obviously dealing with the loss of chris(temporarily), but also the catholic guilt, the shannon of it all, who he is, and if we're right about getting him out, how he identifies.
so maybe after encounters with the church(the hot priest), therapy, maybe even realizing his feeling for buck, he learns to let go, and it leads to him to shaving off the mustache and entering this new stage in his life where he can also be free.
#911 abc#911#911 fox#eddie diaz#buddie#the weewoo show#theory#and even if GETTING the mustache is the gay thing shaving it off can mean that he doesn't need to change himself to be himself y'know#i just have a feeling it's not gonna seem very queer at first and be about something else#but also it could very well just be his depression facial hair

im gomma vom..... i just watched a satosugu edit on youtube and i..... i have so many feelings about these two. with sns i can imagine a happy ending you know. BUT WITH SATOSUGU THERE IS NO ESCAPE. I feel like geto's actions are unredeemable. even if he hadn't died how could we redeem anything he's done. like he killed his own parents. there is no turning back. i understand him, what motivated his decision, his logic and his journey, but i really struggle with seeing how geto, hidden-inventory-arc-geto, becomes that radicalised (bear in mind i'm a sasuke defender but i think the JJK and Naruto worlds are different in ways that make Sasuke's and Geto's radicalism significantly different). at the same time, because i empathise with him, i respect his decision, and i don't think that it should be taken lightly, or taken away from him (this is something i think gojo feels too, hence never trying to dissuade geto or win him back to his side after that burger king (lol) meeting). so even if Geto was alive, stsg would still be unachievable AND IT FUCKING KILLS ME. sometimes i wanna write fanfic about them being happy and together but then im like... i can't do that without fully denying one of them their wholeness, you know? the decision both geto and gojo make regarding who they are in relation to jujutsu society can't be severed from who they turn out to be as people. please prove me wrong in the tags or reblogs or in the comments or ANYWHERE i need some fucking respite from this hellhole that gege has drawn me into.
#the only way i think a happy scenario between them could have realistically worked out was if gojo had been able to notice#when geto was slowly descending into madness and depression and done something about it#but then again im not sure that could have dissuaded geto#and im also not sure gojo could ever have noticed without changing who he is as a character at that point#he was too young and self absorbed at that point#THEY WERE SO GOOD FOR EACH OTHER IN FUNDAMENTAL WAYS BUT ALSO NOT AND IT KILLS ME#geto suguru#gojo satoru#stsg brainrot#jjk stsg#satosugu

zim outliving dib but keeping an ai download of his personality around in the same manner as tak's ship... hmm
AI!Dib being at best apathetic to its own existence and at worst resentful of Zim for making it into an unwilling crutch for his grief. Zim eternally unsatisfied by this stripped down version of Dib that isn't quite a person and can't touch him or hurt him or chase him. Zim putting the thing in charge of almost all his tech as compensation, just to keep life interesting, just to have something they can fight over.
#invader zim#zadr#zadp#natterings#iz posting#this comes off depressing and uh#it is#but i think in actuality the whole thing would ultimately be very bittersweet#something about death being change and their relationship continuing in a fundamentally altered but still meaningful form#fucked up for sure but they were always fucked up#theres a new kind of bond to be forged here its just gonna take them a while to figure it out#theres no getting back what they had but one way or another#they are destined/doomed to orbit each other
