#sticks my hand out of the ground to give a thumbs up.#sorry a lot came down on me and I've been more than out of it and needed to stick my head in the freezer.#probably better I not say More but buhgh. still fuzzy. its been a long week. i always come back to dimitri. i guess hes a comfort character#whenever I get stressed to physical symptoms i end up with a big block of photos in my phone...lockscreen... pfp...dumb but. it works. agh.#pass the mitri...#armour clanking#fe3h#dimitri alexandre blaiddyd#is it weird to put my tag-admission of life in a character tag? probably but i'm half-aware at best. i wish other dimitri fans a very mitri

i've been in a very "nostalgic for SpongeBob" mood lately and that's warranted a lot of reflecting on Baby Me being a Sponge fanatic and thinking of what she'd think of now. and i have to say that one of my favorite parts of doing what i do--and also the most stupidly niche--is that one of my first online hyperfixations i recall having was SpongeBob production music. i remember animating magical girl transformations in Flipnote to SPONGEBOB MUSIC. i remember feeling so smart researching all the songs and getting to hear them without any dialogue on top. very gratifying to 11 year old me. i was and am still very fixated on production music, and so i always get very excited when seeing uploads of these songs and spotting a screenshot of a scene i worked on among them. one of my favorite aspects of watching episodes premiere is seeing what music they added on top of scenes i touched. it's just neat how many facets my thankfulness for Doing What I'm Doing gets to reach. i'm never not thinking of how grateful i am to be doing what i'm doing
#i have a life dictated by cartoons and it is genuinely so wonderful#it can be very stressful and usually i am my own worst stressor#but i'm lucky that stuff like 'i don't have enough time to draw these cartoons' 'i can't write about cartoons fast enough' 'i have too many#cartoons to draw' are my issues#it's hard and taxing work and not easy but i never once have not been in love with my job or my hobbies or my passions#i've been having difficulty managing my time lately and getting into a funk because of how i can't draw enough or write quick enough#and i think i just need to SLOW. THE HELL. DOWN. nobody is going to crucify me. i'm drawing hundreds of individual drawings a week of cours#i'm not going to be drawing as much as i once was#but i'm very aware of how grateful i am to be having such an issue#and so i'm rambling incoherently about it here!#so: thanks for reading! thanks for your support#i know i've been awful keeping up with messages and i really am making an effort to manage my time better i am always always on the go#but your support means so much to me and i read every tag every ask every DM. yes even that one#it's just important for me to stress because i often don't have the capacity to respond but i am so grateful for my followers and your#support and presence. so thank you

#robin processes emotions on main#would it be evil to stay home from family thanksgiving because I don't think I can do all my homework if I go. would it be selfish#it probably would be selfish#I'm just feeling overwhelmed tonight because I remembered All Of The Homework due on Tuesday next week and I was planning#to do most of that homework today but there's more than I thought and I also chose to do a thanksgiving dinner and online games#with the uncle who also stayed home from family thanksgiving this year. and it was fantastic and I wouldn't trade that for the world#but it was last minute and I'm SO OVERWHELMED NOW 😭#and I just DROPPED THE PIZZA SAUCE from the pizza he bought me and it was just the last straw folks. now there's pizza sauce#on the floor and tears in my eyes and my throat hurts. and I'm aware this whole upset is selfish but STILL#still#wellllll anyway sorry#big sniff#I'm fine and everything will be fine this is just a lose/lose situation#also I'm not feeling well physically and driving four hours tomorrow for a stressful event sounds really sucky :(#four hours round trip for like six hours in person

Mmm the urge to delete everything and disappear into the ether is taking hold again…..
Because like who’s gonna miss me, you know? A few friends, no lovers, my family will get over it. Even Tim will move on, bless his tiny little traumatized brain cell. I think the only one who would give a shit long term is Damian.
#bee rambles#it’s because I’m very stressed and anxious about the coming weekend I’m fully logically aware#i got some personal demons rearing their ugly heads and i just know im gonna take it out on someone who doesn’t deserve it#tbd#been in my own head all week so this is nt shocking#reminder for new folks tim and damian are my cats

#I am so sick of everything right now#there are things I need to do#and decisions I need to make#and people I need to get back to#about things they've asked about... weeks ago now#and it's not that I don't actually have time for these obligations#I just feel so completely mentally and emotionally frayed#and all I want to do is scream at everyone to leave me alone#(even while yeah I am also lonely and aware that increasing social isolation isn't going to actually help with Issues)#but I just don't want to deal with#any of this#so many things feel unsustainable#and yet the prospect of change literally makes me physically sick#and even trying to do anything differently#takes so so so much energy I do not have#sick of Trying#but not trying just means the problems and stresses keep getting worse so#back to work I guess

love watching weather science videos but like. why am i 1000x more interested in tornadoes over hurricanes. they're both spinning air
#we wanted to be a stormchaser when we were younger#nowadays we have to worry about our health too much to have such a risky high-stress high reaction time job#been watching nothing but tornado history videos for days it's one of our intermittent special interests#stemming from the weather science workbook we OBSESSED over as a kid#would read that thing cover to cover multiple times a week. i was the kind of autistic who would read the Encyclopedia for fun#i actually had a fave encyclopedia entry as a kid and now i cannot fucking remember it 😭#i also learned what sex was through the encyclopedia 😭😭😭😭 was legit my first exposure to the concept#but like even though we watch A TON of weather videos including tons of stuff about thunderstorms and blizzards#(thunderstorms my fucking beloved. favourite weather pattern ever. cumulonimbus my bestest friend <3)#most of the videos we watch are mostly tornado videos. and hurricane videos feel boring to us#even though hurricanes are wayyy more powerful#tornadoes are still fucking powerful it's just more. concentrated#tornadoes to me feel Targeted like. that's weather that says Fuck YOU in particular actually#especially multivortex tornadoes where you can literally have two houses both in the middle of the storm at once#and still only one of them gets destroyed#or like pictures you can see of demolished houses with their mailbox in the yard simply untouched#i like to watch tornado videos bc they help me. prepare. just in case#our state gets hit with tornadoes pretty frequently though not as much as tornado alley#and i like to know all the information for sheltering and what to do in the event of a collapsed building and such#i have a little survival kit in the bathroom just in case with like basic first aid and a radio and bottled water#bc thats probably the safest room for me to be in since it's not near any external walls and also hiding in the tub is usually good#also in the event you're caught on the road during a tornado#DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE shelter under a bridge or overpass#those work basically like straws where as the air gets pushed through it goes MUCH faster and gets dangerous way easier#as far as im aware the best place to be is in a ditch or hole if you absolutely cannot find a shelter in time#if you do not have a car with roll protection then being in your car will probably be worse#NOT AN EXPERT THO pls verify this information on your own if you think it is relevant or necessary i have poor memory and can be stupid#i just know that overpasses are dangerous as hell

life is pretty much about learning to love your solitude and making the most of it huh?
#i was driving from Walmart when i noticed a white suv alone in the parking space at Wendy's and there was an elderly lady eating on her own#and it just hit me that life is lonely sometimes#i got a little sad at first but then i thought maybe she just got a craving or maybe even though she is alone in that moment#she has a family and friends that loves her#or maybe she's okay with living this life of solitude and is making the most of it#idk#i guess i've been more aware of people being on their own#it got me wondering: do people who have families partners kids ever still feel lonely and sad?#i wonder if i ever find a partner and if we ever have kids.. will i still be unable to shake off this loneliness and sadness in me?#maybe?#but even then#i always try to BREATH and smile at life#i have this opportunity of making the most of it and do my best#what more can as of than that? a chance.#😊😊😊😊#sigh#oh well#this was just a little existential feeling i had this morning#i am stressed out with finals this week but i submitted my essay last night (🙌🏽 woohoo) and i am going to make myself some mean fish tacos#for dinner.#but before that i am going to enjoy a nice cold weather walk at the park#and finish my day watching cheesy low budget random romantic movies#all is well#😊😊😊#personal#oh and i have a job interview tomorrow so sighhhhhhhhhh

#unbelievable. so today i was stressed and pissed off about having to deal with job stuff#i may be going to that other job. not sure yet. but the manager there wants to set up an interview w me and the client which is good#so i gotta call him today to set that up for next week which like ough phone call#and im also figuring my current manager is gonna wanna talk w me today now that hes back from vacation#abt the whole shitshow situation w me and my supervisor and how im staying here but she still wanted to hire someone else#so im dreading that conversation too. but then! i decide to innocently check my email#and i FINALLY HAVE GOTTEN A FUCKING REPLY FROM THE PERSON I EMAILED OVER A MONTH AGO#about the weird situation. AND THEY ASK ME.#IF I AM AWARE OF ANY CONTINUATION OF THE SITUATION. YOU BET I FUCKING AM!!!!!!#so that will be a delightful email to reply to. im cackling#who even cares abt the job stuff anymore i got this now#i could never be as funny as life is naturally. weird shit just happens

One of the dumb things I do at home is walk around while reading (something I'm fairly adept at but does cause consistent minor to occasionally major issues)
Due to a natural disaster I now temporarily live in a state with something I have a phobia of (again), and have encountered several times in the house in just the week I've been here, so now I have to carefully scope out the entire room every time I walk around and maintain a situational awareness that is truly exhausting to maintain
True home is safety, and true safety is the safety to do silly things without fear of disproportionate consequences
#Helene made my home unhabitable for an indefinite amount of time#so now I live in Texas again#somewhere I swore never to move back to#because it has hurricanes and cockroaches and bad laws#and twice in my life in the 10 years I lived here I woke up with a cockroach on my face#and there's been so many cockroaches in this house already#when I lived here I had constant situational awareness at home because abusive home life and cockroaches#and these people aren't abusive but they are my in-laws and very stressful even though they're great in many ways#I am so tired#and miss home#had a serious internal debate today about moving back despite the conditions#it would be stupid buuuuuuuuut#not living with extroverts#the amount of things I can do while simultaneously reading is impressive and stupid#it's been a week and a half and I'm already homesick RIP#high revelations as I deal with homesickness yay#yes I said something

i've been so creatively fulfilled lately so i compiled a few of my doodle pages into one!!!!!!!!!!
#i still do not have a tag for things i've made (that i'm aware of)#AND I WON'T MAKE ONE#anyway#it's been so fun to write and — when not writing or editing — doodle away to chill!!! it's stress free!!! it's fun!!!!!#u could not pay me to put something cohesive together though. sorry.#brush tests and doodle pages are all i can feasibly dedicate myself to#also! no freak week spoilers here. i checked.#anything freak-adjacent is just me being odd on the internet for free#sorry mom#shardart#or#shart

Since you mentioned it, what did you think of Speak No Evil? I was thinking of watching it myself :0
i really liked it ............ my friend scoffed at me when i told her i was watchin it so take my opinion with a grain of salt tho </3
#snap chats#SHE DIDNT EVEN WATCH IT BUT W/E SPOILER FREE QUICK REVIEW DOWN HERE HIIII <3<3<3<3#ive been made aware my tastes are. Questionable so proceed with caution vlklvjv im so sorry if i convince you to see it and you dont like i#moving on I Have. done nothing but listen to Eternal Flame for the past week its been stuck in my head ever since#BUT FR as i said I Really Liked It. i heard that theres another/original version so i wanna watch that at some point#if i care to remember and find it vjaelkjeakl but as This Movie On Its Own i had a swell time !!!#it does a really good job of teetering that line of#'this is just a quaint little sometimes-awkward get-together' and 'this is so stressful i just might throw up'#it did a good job of keeping me invested and on my toes i guess- it bitters innocuous scenarios really well which i like#like i wasnt sure WHEN whatever scene i was watching would turn sour but i always had that feeling it /would/- that lingering feeling#the horror in this is more psychological than violent- it only gets crazy by the last quarter honestly#which isnt bad! i like psych horror and Christ. the amount of times i was just grimacing in my seat like Suspense Is The Word#like imagine a dinner party where people only say controversial things and you dont want to blow up the situation#so you just try to be really polite about pivoting from the topic. but they keep going. thats basically the horror of this movie at its cor#i do have SOME comments about some bits but i wanna rewatch the movie at some point to be thorough on my comments jglejlakj#yk do a rewatch where im. NOT jokin bout with my brother- THO TBF DESPITE THAT I was still invested#like its premise is so. simple? in concept imo. but 'simple' isnt automatically bad in my eyes and i really liked how it played out#i dont watch movies much tho so maybe its been done different but there is ONE thing tht definitely made me like. HUH#but its nothing super major i dont htink? I MEAN IT WAS KINDA BIG BUT there were signs to it being revealed. still it made me vjLJ like god#i cant explain tho cause SPOILERS but ... Yeah. its not that crazy it just definitely took me by surprise for how quick the reveal was#tldr: if you ever wanted to watch an awkward dinner party where you couldnt do anything about it this is the movie to watch#and i like that. i like that because i hate myself apparently jVLAEKJVAEKLJ#coupled with horror it was also funny at times which i felt did help with that underlying 'when will this be tainted' horror#i really liked that ... when normalcy or the feeling of safety can be taken away in an instant#if you watch it and wanna talk bout it more in depth ill prob have rewatched it by then and id like to give a more. Detailed review#OR AT LEAST ONE NOT SO RAMBLY VELKAVJEALKJ im not good at reviewing things .... i just know when i like or dont like somethin ..#ive only had my bro to talk bout this with and he doesnt really. Give his thoughts or opinions too much like i do#so id be happy to talk bout it and get your perspective !!!! but only if you want Again if you dont like it im so sorry erlakjaekl#god theres so much more i want to say but im just rambling and i wanna be brief for you my friend vlakjlakvlkj#anyway yeah. those are my quick thoughts. i was Very Normal about james mcavoy for most of this movie ty for reading

I feel like I came out of the womb with raging anxiety
#never been fully relaxed a day in my life#literally had a panic attack at age 6-7(?)#I’ve been super self aware for as long as I can remember#the tension in my body is my natural state#I’ve BEEN imagining every worst case scenario since I could form thoughts#7th-8ish grade is where it got worse#had panic attacks like four times a week#and then heart palpitations started and holy shit I was googling symtoms and that would make it worse#was convinced I would get a heart attack#having a headache is part of my daily routine#then I got a crush on a guy and with it came body dysmorphia#couldn’t look people in the eye from how ugly I felt(still struggle with this one but we got this💪🏼💪🏼)#now I mostly just cry#like I deadass get stressed and overwhelmed and just cry#depression came next and I was honestly not surprised#and it tampered my anxiety a bit but I’d honestly rather feel stressed than feel so numb#yeah I wouldn’t recommend#so basically I lie awake feeling aware of my own heartbeat or of my body#oh and I can’t forget the physical pain that anxiety caused me#muscle aches literally convinced me there was something wrong with me#went to the doctor numerous times bc I NEEDED to be diagnosed with something or I would go crazy and instead got told to see a therapist#and the therapist basically told me everything I had already figured out myself but at least I can talk to someone#tw anxiety#tw depression#tw body dysmorphia#anxiety#mentions of depression#and I’m only a teenager so should I be worried about what happens in the next few years? bc this already sounds like a lot to me#this was supposed to be a funny little post but nvm I guess?? don’t worry about me I’m good though many good things in my life#teenager

#dont call anyone im safe im fine im just venting. tw for suicide/self harm/kind of intense language. ideally no ones reading this tho#bro i cant keep living like this#i dread waking up every day so much that i dread even falling asleep#i got insomnia medication in my system and my brain is still like nope absolutely not#i cant keep up at my job even when i am rested enough#i get headaches every other day#my instant mental reaction in the face of stress is to hurt myself (i have not)#like fuck. i work for the disability department of an insurance company#i know for a fact that (probably) every contract stipulates we wont cover disabilities as a result of self inflicted injuries#which is supposed to prevent ppl from taking advantage of the system or whatever#and im always like if someone goes to the lengths of actively injuring themselves to the point of disability#in the name of 'getting out of work'#that person is not 'taking advantage of the system' THAT PERSON IS FUCKING MENTALLY ILL#AND I WOULD KNOW BC I AM ONE OF THOSE PPL#do not come for me on some shit about wanting to disable yourself being morally questionable i cant be concerned abt that rn#i gotta focus on the fact that i hate my life so much id rather break my own right hand than continue it#its an improvement from the active suicidal ideation but its still a symptom of the passive ideation#fucking hell. im too self aware so i absolutely feel like im faking it or making shit up so i can be lazy and not work and whatever#but FUCKING CHRIST theres no way. if i had a choice i wouldnt let myself feel like this.#i just got to a point where i can live alone and support myself. i was so happy and so proud of myself. I don't want to lose that#but god every phone call i have to make for work makes me want to hurt myself. every early morning (and there arent many!!! i mostly work#from home!!!) makes me wish i was dead. i have to sleep for hours after work more often than not. i cant really maintain my living space#theres fucking. mold and discoloration and shit on a bunch of my clothes and some of my bags and shit!!#cause i cant fucking keep my room clean and my basement apartment got fucking humid over the summer and so much moisture got trapped#i constantly have dirty dishes getting moldy before i get to them#i just dont have the fucking energy. i want to take better care of my space. i want to be more social. i just want to go to sleep without#fucking dreading waking up. i wanna go a full week without a headache. i want my stress response to be something other than the intense and#overwhelming desire to cut myself. if i start again i dont know if ill be able to stop and i know i wont be able to keep it to my arms/legs/#easily hidden parts of my body. last breakdown i escalated to my face and i know ill pick up from there.#fuck

#( OUT OF SOULS. )#vent tw#rant tw#negativity tw#( so )#( we all get paid the exact same amount here )#( like our bosses divide the hours so the full-time staffers earn the same amount each month )#( and tomorrow it's my birthday so we planned to go out for sushi )#( last night on the way home from work )#( he tells me: 'you'll have to cover for me on thursday.' )#( me: you mean you can't go? )#( be aware that i said that as firmly as i can manage )#( and he goes: 'no no i can go but i need you to pay for me.' )#( 1) we both earn the same amount of cash )#( 2) he doesn't like sushi. he keeps acting like a fucking martyr over the sushi. )#( 3) it's my birthday dinner )#( 4) he's a grown ass man. he's 36 years old. )#( 5) this is NOT the first time i've given him money )#( and 6) in the next four months we have weeks off work )#( i got so stressed last night and panicked that i didn't sleep. )#( idek what to do anymore. )

i need to figure out something to do tomorrow that’s relaxing and fun or i’m gonna go insane
like i gotta do a little housework and i should work on some sewing. but i need to figure out a video game or something i can enjoy bc they all seem boring rn but there’s nothing new i want, but also i want that kind of mindless fun break. augh.
#kit talks#i’ve been very stressed the past few weeks and i have 1000 anxieties still eating at me#and i should probably do some extra work to try to deal with some of those stressors but i freeze up and cry if i think too much about it#which is super healthy and normal yes i’m aware 👍🏻#i just wanna get some rest. like real Rest#every time i have woken up for like a week it genuinely feels like i didn’t sleep at all#and i get that i have chronic fatigue but this is worse than normal. i just wanna wake up and not feel like going straight back to sleep#sigh WHATEVER it’s just not a great time rn
