as someone who has always avoided horror in media, listening to tma is truly an interesting experience.

I'll have the next episode open on youtube, stare at it and internally scream: i don't want to. i really don't want to listen to this. i'm already fucking scared just thinking about this podcast. if i choose to not listen to this episode now, i'll be able to go to bed perfectly calm and not scared. please, please don't make me listen to this.

... and still click on it.

like, not listening to it isn't even an option. i know i'll do it. i really don't want to but i still want to.

WTF???

On the topic of existing as an adult. How do people even have the energy to wake up and do anything except the bare minimum in the morning? Are there people out there who do that who follow me? I am fascinated by you.

I wake up 30 minutes before my shifts start and I live a 5 minute drive from work. I spend like 5 minutes "mentally" waking up, 5 minutes getting dressed (just work pants + overshirt + visor + shoes) and tying up my hair, and like 5 minutes checking Twitter/tumblr/texts. If I eat anything I usually eat it on the drive to work and in the car before I go in. I don't wear makeup and I don't wear anything fancy. Yet there are people who are doing shit like going to the gym or walking their dog or taking showers hours before work starts? Girl wtf I'm going to the shadow realm when I sleep and I'm not leaving until it's statistically impossible for me to be on time for whatever obligation I have to be at. Where did teenage girls get the willpower to do makeup at 5am in high school. What the fuck

Doctors in 2024 don’t actually know how to treat patients, all they know is keto diet, low fodmap diet, Mediterranean diet, intermittent fasting diet, diet, diet, diet, eat kale chips and lie

i hate convos about food w randos because it can't ever be a normal conversation about how delicious my grandma's banana bread recipe is or something it's always people who are like "EW FOOD🤢" "food is fuel:)" "i don't like sweet things i've only ever eaten vegetables yes since i was 3 years old" dominating the conversation. like ok leave omfg

phobia manager

a headmate whose role is to mitigate the symptoms of a phobia for a system. the subjects of phobias other system members have do not bother a phobia manager, and they may even actively enjoy those subjects (such as a system with a phobia of dogs having a member who is interested in dogs). however, all that is required is for them to not have a phobia that the rest of the system does or for a member whose phobia they are managing. this could be considered both a form of symptom neutralizer and/or symptom enjoyer.

🌹 headmate template 👁️

✦ Name(s): Rose, Ocula, Flora ✦ Pronouns: she/her, ze/zir/zirs/zirself, x/xs/xself, weird/weirds/weirdself, odd/odds/oddself, shx/hxr/hxrs/hxrself ✦ Species: object head (rose with an eye in the middle) ✦ Age: adult ✦ Role(s): caretaker, comforter, manager, symptom holder/enjoyer (optional) ✦ Symptoms experienced: unreality, dissociation, psychosis ✦ Labels: gendervoid, luxine, kenochoric, oriented aroace, lesbian, queerplatonic, oddcoric ✦ Xenos: dreams, flowers, liminality ✦ Interests/likes: weirdcore, organization, tea ✦ Dislikes: rigidity in thinking, sour foods, dull colors ✦ Music taste: dream pop, chillwave, psychedelic pop ✦ Aesthetic(s): weirdcore, dreamcore, light academia, acid pixie ✦ Objectum attraction(s): plants, crystals ✦ Kins: angels, moonstone, american white shepherd dogs ✦ Emoji proxy: 🌹👁️ ✦ Details:

Rose is an object head like the kind that appear in weirdcore edits - specifically a rose with an eye in the middle. Ze is very comfortable with that which is seen as strange, surreal, or unsettling. In fact, ze finds such things comforting. X would work well in a system whose members tend to find surreal aesthetics comforting too. However, Rose also takes xs system members' individual comforts into account. X is fond of giving reassurances when the system are worried and seeking out positive distractions for the system, especially art (either creating it or looking at it). However, ze is not just an emotional caretaker but a practical one, and helping the system fulfill their responsibilities is important to x. Ze is fond of organization, especially if ze can make it aesthetic (e.g. through fun containers, planners, etc.) If the system experience dissociation, hallucinations, or other forms of unreality, Rose experiences those symptoms too but finds that shx is much less distressed by them than other members of the system might be. Ze is able to enjoy a certain level of dissociation and finds many hallucinations to be friendly and familiar. Shx encourages the rest of the system to be less afraid of their symptoms, and if they can't be, then shx fronts while the system are experiencing symptoms so they can be experienced by someone who handles them better.

[These can be edited and changed as needed, and headmates will almost definitely not turn out EXACTLY as described.]

[If you do not already experience the symptoms described in this template, you are discouraged from trying to introject THOSE PARTS of this headmate.]

I just told my boss I can't write the paper. Stepping back and admitting that I am not in the mental or physical place to do something might be the bravest thing I've ever done

[vigil4nted]

Depression Lite.  i’m missing the brain fog & shitty feelings. i skipped right to Nothing I Do Is Engaging Or Fun For More Than Five Minutes.  so it’s kinda... i burst do a thing for a few minutes then just... do nothing for an hour. mentally i feel like okay, like emotionally i’m stable as shit. but for doing things for some reason i just can’t do it lads.
