#this is a very specific problem

maybe a hot take but please don’t have or stop having children if you have an active eating disorder/body dysmorphia (including binge eating, not just restrictive disorders). seriously

thinking you’ll be the exception (because you’re So self-aware, unlike those Other disordered women) and won’t give your dysmorphia/eating disorder to your child is pride before a very slow and terrible fall

it never ever works. you’re never ever immune. i mean, such a huge reason of why there are so many of us now is bc our moms thought the same thing lmfao. didn’t matter how well-intentioned they were. no matter how much they tried to separate Their Problems from Ours. here we fucking are

i know it’s not women’s fault to begin with, but the reality is that those of us affected do incubate, nurture, and pass on the virus in the Current Way of Things

the buck needs to stop here. this isn’t a game. think of all the things your mother probably thought she was expertly hiding from you that you still picked up on and were profoundly affected by in a terrible and formative way. it will happen to you, too. don’t think it won’t.

if you know that you’re not solidly and confidently recovered, you have a responsibility to stop that buck and not actively attempt to create a child who will observe, mimic, internalize, adopt, and inherit your lifelong life-ruining behavior. the selfishness is breathtaking honestly

reblog if you have to clean your room, wrap all of your Christmas presents, write 2 full essays as well as complete 3+ other assignments and do something about your moderate to severe depression and anxiety but instead you choose to listen to taylor swift’s folklore in your pajamas while scrolling on tumblr and eating fucking oreos

I stg I saw zero beauty and the beast retellings when I came up with the concept for MaR (like a million years ago but still). Even the last few years when I’ve had it rotating in the back of my brain I encountered zero other people doing it. And now they’re EVERYWHERE I’m seeing them everywhere it’s truly wild have I been plugged into the hive mind this entire time

mint as my laptop daily driver is basically better than windows for me. all i use is firefox (internet and reading pdfs) and obsidian (literally any writing or notes). the update manager is so killer too

Explorers of Sky is a good game.

that urban legend about the german soldiers in wwii who knew they had a british spy in their midst and were pretty sure they knew who it was but the guy did everything perfectly exactly as a german would until one day they were surveilling him as he left to run an errand and as he went to cross the street he looked right-left-right instead of left-right-left the way you should if you’re from a country that drives on the right side of the road is exactly how i feel when i know a fic author is british but i can’t prove it until they slip up in their woke up married in vegas au and write something like the person didn’t notice they even got married until they reached down to move the gear shift and saw the ring on their hand on the stick

gee i wonder if the issue could be at all related to the fact that the current treatment plan for his chronic pain consists solely of FUCKING IBUPROFEN

[zuko-always-lies]

The situation at Boiling Rock needed to be carefully designed by the writers to cause the Dangerous Ladies to fall apart. If circumstances were even moderately changed, then what happened there would be very different and it wouldn't end with both Mai and Ty Lee betraying Azula.

A lot of people assume that Azula was always doomed to lose her friends in the closing stages of the war and if it didn't happen at Boiling Rock, it would have happened elsewhere, but I'm not so sure. The fact that the writers had to weigh scales so heavily in order to destroy the friendships suggests the opposite, that Azula's bonds to her friends were stronger and more durable than people acknowledge.

"What if Boiling Rock never happened and Mai and Ty Lee stuck with Azula to the end, as everything else started to fall apart around her" is almost unexplored as an AU, but it is very possible.

i'm going to scream i got accused of being a transmisogynist by someone on twitter because of this specific part of my t4t steddie art

[toskarin]

miss Toskarin you’re not convincing me that Skyrim was the ruin of all western rpgs. In fact you’re convincing me that the issues began with oblivion.

I'd better be careful or else I might convince you of my less loudly-held beliefs

“objectively speaking cas is probably more queer than sam and dean”

speak for yourself lmfao he is ludicrously handled as a character overall (in terms of establishing consistently meaningful motivations and conflicts for him) and he belongs in the fanservice bin in terms of what the canon did with his sexuality.

sam is the only one of these 3 whose entire narrative screams queer allegory argue with the wall. like I’m offended that you guys are putting any character in this show in the same league as sam to be perfectly fucking honest. I’m talking big-picture and narrative throughlines and you’re quibbling over gay jokes and the stupid fucking confession scene 🗿 this blows

I’m so glad that we live in a time and culture where every once in awhile millionaire musicians will publicly air out their grievances with each other via song. That sounds like something that would happen in ancient China but no it’s happening right now in current day everybody say thank you black people

[archaeologistproblems]

Very specific archaeologist problems: when you didn’t study invertebrates and so it takes you a good 15 minutes to remember the word “nudibranch” after one pops up on a dredging monitoring project. Pulled it out of the mud and said, “Hmm, you’re not an artifact!” (I returned the poor confused bugger to the water, don’t worry.)
