this explanation sucks so badly it makes me so mad i had to rant in the tags. if you dont care dont open them lmao its long
#sorry to both op and the person im rbing this from for this rant#but while i appreciate this guy sharing his experience that is one of the worst fucking ways he couldve explained it#this analogy sucks its so god damned infantilizing#theres no fucking monkey. an NTs brain works the same way: you want go to what makes you feel good#and you want to stay away from what makes you feel bad#but see. my brain#among many other things#doesnt produce the same levels of certain neurotransmitters as NTs#the explanation is that fucking simple#my brain is s t a r v e d for say. dopamine for example#so in a situation where an NT might feel slightly uncomfortable i will feel something i can only describe as psychological pain#so you can see how making those impulsive short term gain choices becomes far more appealing because it gets rid of the immediate pain#and generating motivation to do something that isnt immediately gratifying becomes harder#because it seems like it will hurt so much more until its done#(it doesnt always but thats not the point)#on top of that the reward center of my brain is just fucking broken!!! so when i do the hard thing!!#i dont get NEARLY the same level of physiological reward!! which makes doing the hard thing even LESS appealing!!!#and thats only the tip of the iceberg!!! im not even a doctor!! i am not a professional!! i dont fully understand how deep this shit goes!!#but like. jesus#i just hate hate hate hate the way adhd gets treated like this#it but it fills me with white hot rage#why do you think people with adhd are more prone to both substance and behavioural problems like gambling?? is it the brain monkey???#fucking hell. youre talking about a legitimate disability that effects our entire fucking lives#just think about it for a second. think for a SECOND about the implications of this metaphor#and all the metaphors just like it that have been thrown around that make adhd look like a fucking joke#and then shut up

God dude these two scenes and how roxie moves hurt my heart so so bad 🥹
it's like a mix of anger, feral, emotional breakdown, and complete sadness that just fucks me up soooo fucking bad.
it's like she's a pet who got abandoned by their owner but they see them again after years of sadness and depression of them being gone and leaving them like that and all that anger and sadness just manifest's into one bundle of emotion's towards them they cannot control.
roxie baby ur gonna be okay u deserve better :[
#scott pilgrim vs the world#scott pilgrim#scott pilgrim spoilers#scott pilgrim takes off#roxie richter#ramona flowers#its the fucking fact throughout that whole scene after the hammer she just starts going COMPLETELY feral and just bawl her eyes out#throughout the whole irl fight until the movie shelf falls on them 🥹#can she like#get a hug or something i get her so so much i get u gurl im so sorry u gotta go through this#this episode really just#shows how important closure is for a relationship/even a friendship#like of course it depends on the person and the relationship but man.#People don't realize how important it is to not just leave a person behind like that without explanation but instead give them closure about#it and telling them how you feel.#it really is as simple as that sometimes...and i think people forget that and just wanna ghost/leave as fast as possible#to not deal with the emotions of the situation.#Like both roxie and ramona finally just talking about the situation does sm for their future as friends and i loveeee ittt#so so much better then the comics version off them I feel like this is PERFECT.#again obviously theres just some situations where talking just doesnt work and you both just have to move on.#but when theres situation's like roxie and ramona? talking is needed.#talking/closure is so so important guys remember that when its needed. <3

...am I just losing my mind or did yer icon become evil? I don't remember that BeAst behind Boe
yuuuump always been behind me
#ask#anon#pazuzu's just been there since the beginning#mainly because my avatar use to be of 2D in front of the d-sides album cover. or atleast one of the covers#and i had a lot of transparent edits of 2D over that cover#but when i had Boe made. i put him over it instead and i just kinda kept it like that cause i thought the colours together were really nice#as for the blurry swirls. i just like doing simple effects in paintdotnet#i don't really imagine them as much besides the blurriness of the minds eye. like this is how you'd see the inside of my brain maybe.#or not really my brain. boes minds eye maybe.#i don't know if i have a ''lore explanation'' for pazuzu in Boe's life in limbo/hell#or specifically in relation to Boe i mean#i'd still like to actually visualize what limbo looks like. or specifically the area in limbo in which Boe lives#which is just an old manor in the middle of nowhere. with old computer crts and keyboards in the mud of his back yard#dark purplish skies with maybe blueish roaming fields with no horizon#i do have a map file of me trying to create what i imagine to be Boes house but i've only blocked out his porch#i've got a loose idea of what the layout of his house's interior is like but nothing solid honestly#the reason he lives in an old manor is due to mystery case files: ravenhearst. inspiration-wise#use to play that growing up from bigfishgames. fucking love the look of that manor and the intense mess that resides within#i think i also think about the Gorillaz' o green world phase where they had kong studio's absolutely trashed with junk and shit#did actually buy MCF Ravenhearst the other day actually. specifically for higher res ref images of rooms#played a little of it the other day but i was so tired for most of that day so i didnt play for long#anyway. thank you for the ask anon :) yeah he's always been there. pazuzu kinda just blends into the background i think

This will probably get looks from performative and ultimately harmful non-transfems despite my being transfem but-
Some y'alls only interaction with feminist history and theories, radical feminism regardless of its intersectionality and really any feminism deeper and louder and meaner than blatant choice feminism like the barbie movie and whatever TF taylor swift thinks shes got going on is through your occasional and short interactions with terfs and it shows. You call vagina art terfy and it fucking isnt. Its feminist art. Your brainrot is making you a fucking mra. The fact y'all think talking about the man vs bear situation is about/started/ran by terfs (and encouraged some really questionable other transfems shitting on it despite it clearly just being about women's safety and yes all men, not transphobia.), everything from questioning wether certain groups belong in our community to thinking a word is a slur or having a lesbian icon (I have sources don't test me) or not to not liking a certain band has been called "terf rhetoric". I'm all for us Transmascs talking about how terfs affect us cause they absolutely do and their harm to the transmasc community can not be understated but like.... Y'all are not allowed to call Jack shit terf rhetoric anymore. Like nothing. You don't know what it means, you litterally call transmedicalism and sysmedicalism terf rhetoric. Do you mean exclusionist? Say exclusionist. Terfs are not the end all be all hate group. They have a very specific complex mindset that affects so many people in specific ways. Someone hating Neopronouns is not fucking terf rhetoric. It's nbphobia. Holy fuck. Learn what words mean.
(intersectional trans radfems exist, radical feminism isn't terfs and swerfs and historical radfems would laugh in their faces for their idiocy)
#clover speaks#clover vents#hating bi lesbians is not terf rhetoric vagina art is not terf rhetoric medical sexism is not a terf topic#everytime you call some form or bigotry or some form of deep cut feminism you dont know shit about terf rhetoric#another trans person loses their wings#terfs harm people via certain avenues in specific ways#you've turned it into a fucking meaningless buzzword to decribe everything from opinions you dont like to actual bigotry#its basically gotten the exclusionist radical regressive gatekeep gaslight terreatmemt#words that mean very specific real things but gets so overused it means fuck all now#if your explanation for why something is supposed terf rhetoric is just something something splitting the community#something something exclusionary something something heard one say it once then you dont have the authority to fucking talk about it#I've been in the trenches fighting terfs and learning about their veiws and mindsets to accurately fight and rehabilite them#the hell they've actively put me and many other trans people through can not be understated#one called you a name one sent you a hate anon and sudeenly your the master of knowledge? gtfo#the specifics and deep rooted hate and history of that group is serious and every time you call some fucking#meaningless community discourse about if some inane insult is a slur like stupid or freak and call it terf rhetoric#you give terfs more fog to hide in you obscure the enemy that much more#you make it harder to find real actual terfs and their nazi friends when you call a fucking antikin a terf for being antikin#stop comparing other groups to terfs and heres a quick ajd easy way to identify if something is actually fucking terf rhetoric#dose the topic specifically talk about terfs or terfism or transmysogny/transandrophobia in the context of exclusionary radical feminism?#if the answer is yes then their might KEY WORD MIGHT be terf rhetoric involved.#if the answer is no then its not fucking terf rhetoric plain and fucking simple#find another buzzword milo because transmedicalism by definition cant BE FUCKING TRANS EXCLUSIONARY RADICAL FEMINIST RHETORIC#God this fucking community sometimes is so fucking exhausting#reminding me yet again that its mostly young and mostly people who lose their minds when i bring up terfs and racism#and yes you perisex afab trans person who thinks this isnt about you and the random shit youve false flagged as terfy#this is about you and your misusage of a serious allegation and association to falsely claim some terminally online take is terfy#You just make me hold my head in my hands and sigh really loud and try not to send you to the shadow realm#Not everything an alleged terf believes makes something terfism or terfy#please actually learn what words mean before you use them and make an ass of yourself called some tranfem exclusionist a fucking terf psyop

i do think the most interesting interpretation of btvs lore is that non-vampire demons and mystical entities ALL have souls, unless they sold, destroyed or otherwise got rid of them (like the mayor)
#because first of all: it gives a potential explanation for why there is a VAMPIRE slayer who specializes in vamps and not just a ''slayer''#like why vampires are singled out in particular. if its because they are in some inherent way crueler more evil less human less worthy#than at least the average demon altho not the most terrible demons. and that kind of checks!! plenty of demons seem to be fairly chill#amoral maybe and have weird diets but not necessarily Big Bads. whereas all vampires by definition drain humans of blood for fun and profit#second: it explains a lot about anya in particular - i'm thinking of two things in s7 when she's a-venging again#1. when she sees spike's soul in his eyes and is Shocked. not the face of a woman who has never seen a soul in the eyes of a demon before#2. no one is like ''oh anya has a soul!!! you cant slay her'' or ''how can you be a demon again when you have a soul wahhh''#i bet everyone just knows she has a soul. she's had a soul the whole time. everyone knows that. everyone's been knowing that.#third: it explains Why Angel And Spike Are Such Frickin Big Deals lmaoooo#the whole ''vampire with a soul'' thing isnt understood by buffy in s1 - angel tells her about it and she's like okay sure. try harder#the concept of ''souls'' being ''something'' that one ''has'' is like so ... it ONLY MAKES SENSE if vampires are KNOWN to NOT HAVE SOULS!!!#like imagine youre a demon or w/e and some master vamp comes along and youre like ''oh shit'' and he's like nah man ... ive got my Soul#and youre like ''oh SHIT. i didnt know you could do that''#vaguely related point: i think something people in fandom have always struggled with (''struggled with'' is the nice way of phrasing)#is the idea that in buffy's mind vampire with soul = good / vampire without soul = bad ALWAYS NO EXCEPTIONS#and like. theres so much nuance there. nuance number one being that buffy anne summers is the Queen Of Black And White Thinking#and we gotta take what she says with a grain of salt. nuance number two being obviously bad people can do good things and vice versa#nuance number three is that she's kinda right? if you have no true moral compass AND no true empathy AND delight in causing pain You're Bad#anyway i think this take ^^^^ about demons having souls and the people of btvs being aware of this lends EVEN MORE NUANCE!!!#because people in fandom love being like ..... buffy would kill anything without a soul. and protect anything with a soul. which tbh#i think is a deliberate misunderstanding of the source material. buffy would kill anything that harms humans and will protect#anyone that is human. thats her fucking job lmaoooooooooooooo its her calling in life. get bent#i'm ending the tag spiral here <3#it's terribly simple

kasander + 😴 please!
Thank you ❤️ Sleep questions about D&D elves always lead peculiar places, don't they?
hc + 😴 for a sleep-themed headcanon
Kasander seldom sleeps willingly. Their trance is already haunted by half-alien memories of blood and darkness, disorganized images they struggle to stitch together and match to their origins. It's upsetting even without any supernatural incursion causing more extreme visions, and it makes them fear resting. Sleeping, on the rare experiment trying to avoid the memories, is much worse. They always dream, and they always dream Bhaal's dreams. And it takes such a terribly long time to wake. So they avoid sleeping, and they're thankful not to have a reason to.
However, sleep is the most convenient way for the Emperor to contact them, and the Emperor has a way of pulling them under whenever he pleases. When they first met and the Emperor was still in the form of the Dream Visitor the Emperor offered to soothe their nights from the restless, terrible trance by quieting their dreams- if only they would sleep, of course. Disoriented, still largely amnesiac, and distressed by the visions, Kasander agreed eagerly (there was a lot of agreeing with the Emperor then) and committed themself to the psionic protection out of desperation for any relief from the growing fear there was something wrong with them. It did seem to work- mostly- but when Kas began to break with the Emperor they stopped sleeping nightly as well. By that point they were ready to grapple with the horrors of trance again, as painful and difficult as they were.
#any time something comes up around kasander and sleeping I have this moment of 'do elves sleep in pathfinder'#and you know what? I still don't know the answer. I should. but I don't.#I have become intimately acquainted with trance in D&D thanks to periodically being forced to fact check a bizarre and incorrect belief#that elves have to learn to trance properly and there was a cultural aspect of it. this isn't true and I don't know where I got it from.#anyway do you ever think about how fucking funny it is that trance is genuinely such a deeprooted and unique part of cross setting D&D lore#and so much shit pretends it doesn't exist. I'm guilty too it's the easy way out but god. it's such a simple alien touch#our conception of life is hard to separate from sleep huh#elves sleep an absolutely SILLY amount in bg3 despite there being flavor text and the guy scene acknowledging that they. y'know. don't.#the flavor text takes an especially hardline stance even. very silly. are we just supposed to pretend the sleeping is trance for elves#I'm about to sleep and not trance myself this was not a night of powerful focus for me#sorry you're getting my most scattered and incoherent one of the night :')#emi plays bg3#ask me emithing#ask game#kasander#archduke-enver-gortash#hm. that feels like I'm summoning something. ominous.#anyway if I've just missed some in game explanation for what's going on every time elves appear to be sleeping please lmk

decided to read a fic set in a VERY specific au (smth I have 0 actual knowledge of), and I am paying for my hubris by spending most of my time being confused af abt what the FUCK they are talking abt. not what I signed up for but also I did not read the fine print so this is clearly on me
#fuck off lou#my post#simple solution? do some goddamn research#but the problem is that that wastes valuable time that could be spent muddling thru#until i get to the bits im ACTUALLY here for#yes it is an F1 au#i do not CARE abt tyre specification i want to see them be fucking insane abt each other in a situation#can we move on from this (sorely needed) explanation on how these events work so they can fuck nasty#please#to all my f1 mutuals i am sorry for my ignorance#i truly thought i could stumble blindly thru this like most sport au#but this might actually be too much for me

anyone want to see something vaguely cursed
it's Ion(a)
(don't mind me; i was toying with the CC because I was thinking about disguise self/illusion spells, and though this would be a very counterintuitive as a disguise, it might be something she'd attempt to practice the finer aspects of a new spell, just to get the hang of it)
(pretty sure i landed on one of the half-elf faces because the elf ones didn't look right, they didn't have that sort of foxlike/feline feel to them)
#squirrel plays bg3#oc: iona raedir#it'd be funny for like a post-game adventure#“the hero of the gate? oh no saer you must be confusing me with my darling twin sister! no; she's occupied elsewhere presently”#“oh why am i uh.... here; with.... with her boyfriend? well you see there is a very simple and reasonable explanation"#“we are clearly having a deliciously scandalous; sordid affair”#and astarion elbows her in the side as a warning that she's taking too much of a piss#but since she made herself look like half a foot taller he actually just critfails and fucking nails her in the ribcage#and she needs to make the a concentration check of a lifetime just so her face won't also melt off as she chokes to get her breath back#good times good times

Welcome to Bionicle. There are these really cool heroic bionicles who represent the various elements. There is also a golden shiny bionicle and a dark and evil bionicle. Watch as they fight eac--oh by the way there are these bug beast bionicles that can hive mine other bionicles by launching face hugger-esque masks onto others turning them into mindless slaves of the creatures. Anyway so now the Bionicles you knew went super saiyan and--
#{ Welcome to Bionicle we are going to go from simple Heroic Adventure to Eldritch Horror briefly and then return to normal }#{ with zero fucking explanation }

the disinformation that went on in the past 24 hours is why we now have programs and websites that say “oops the rats are chewing up the servers again :(“ instead of anything useful
We have got to make owning a home computer widespread again. We have got to get rid of the tablets and put Linux on those school chromebooks so the children do not get scared of the command line.
Genuinely so many issues could be fixed if people were willing to look up how something works before saying shit, and if the people answering these questions were less stuck up their asses and used less jargon. <- this advice applies to tech issues in general, though the situation that happened today can’t be fixed by the average person because it requires administrator rights to fix. Unless you happened to get lucky and rebooting over and over fixed it for you.
#like. I know pretentious developer/computer guy who looks down on the poor normies is a whole trope#and I general find that behavior really annoying because it’s not that hard to give people a basic explanation#but holy shit#you do not want the normie teaching others this basic explanation because it’s a game of telephone#I have seen many twitter replies saying it was a hack. that it was windows update. to check your home computer and make sure to not update.#where the fuck are you getting that info from#is it tiktok?? probably.#to be clear: your personal devices are NOT affected. for the love of god please keep your devices up to date.#only businesses using a specific product are affected. there is a simple fix for it.#the issue is that if the pc/server can’t connect to the internet before it blue screens#then someone has to physically go to that machine and delete a file manually#which is a huge problem if you have thousands of computers#but if the pc is able to connect to the internet then it will roll back to a previous non fucked up version and fix itself

#Rough day. Rough week. Rough couple of months.#Today feels especially bad. I feel like im evil for having feelings#I feel like im way too much for everyone.#I feel like its just so fucking easy for people to decide im not worth it anymore#I feel like i mean so little to some people that they dont give a fuck how i feel#that i dont deserve an explanation#that i just deserve to be tossed aside without knowing what i even did#I should be used to loneliness by now its like a second skin#and yet it never feels any better gripping my throat#maybe thats why i like that so much because at least then i understand why i cant breathe#I dont know. I just feel like im so easily tossed aside no matter how hard I do or dont try.#im the simple answer the one you can always throw overboard.#im expendable and outlive my usefulness quickly i guess.#it happens so fucking often. Tell me why it still hurts so badly...

You know, when I started this episode I thought that it's so interesting that House is wearing the BBC Sherlock coat with the upturned collar and everything I thought it was a cool little reference or something. And then the episode continues with House trying to solve his first crime just like the real Sherlock but it's not just a crime it's Kutner's suicide and god... I can't think about it too much or I'll cry again
#this is some good tv holy shit#and with the previous ep beint locked in which was just so interesting#the way Kutner's suicide comes out of nowhere just like it did for the characters#i literally did not care about those patients after learning about Kutner which is probably exactly how the team felt#ugh i love media rhat forces the audience to feel what the characters feel#surely if i go back to that ep where taub and kutner were arguing over suicide then i could find something but the point is that even if#there is something then i missed it just like the others did#house md#lawrence kutner#cant believe at the end of the last ep all i could think was that i love kutner he's one of my favourites and now i dont get to see him#fuck this show i fucking hate it#going through the stages of grief in these tags fr#5x20 Simple Explanation
