I sort of want to make the next round of posts to have in my drafts a few days early but half of the current polls are basically neck and neck so like. do I just make two versions of the future polls involving each potential winner?

iiiive been able to take my adhd meds again relatively consistently for the first time in months, but now I've noticed I get an eye twitch whenever I'm crashing and/or not focusing on something and it's driving me nuts!

I've also been struggling trying to combine taking the medication to be productive and having energy left to hang out with friends in the evenings. I was crashing so hard last night, and it made it difficult to get/stay on the same energy/enthusiasm level as my friends. which is a level of enthusiasm that I actually really enjoy. still figuring out how to best balance all of this, but for now, I've gotta take it the next couple of days regardless of the balance because it helps me actually get shit done, and I need to work on some outfits I promised to make for a friend that I have been procrastinating on for over a month now

top surgery being canon in thedas is crazy tbh we need to get into this. who knows how to do it. where are they learning. the only other surgery canonised in the series is amputation so we've just doubled the number of surgeries healers know how to do. next they're going to figure out appendectomies.

Genuinely confused at the reaction to the Pokémon folk tales. Do people not realize most of them are repurposed from many different cultures?

Apart from that, it's very clear that the Pokémon that appears does not matter at all because there are many different versions of a single tale. The infamous Thyplosion tale was originally about Slaking, then about Piloswine. The Lapras and Octillery tales are the exact same. There's at least three variants of the Ursaring tale, and one of them is a Rapidash.

Why is everyone so shocked? Have you never heard a folk tale at all? Just off the top of my head, Greek mythology has a LOT of stories about Zeus fucking around as an animal, Rome's founding myth is literally fratricide, Egyptian mythos has a human heart being put in a scale... And suddenly you forget that exists because I guess dogshit interaction bait is too good to pass up?

Anyways. Diving deep into the leaked myths many interesting things come to light. None of the myths were used most probably because the Time/Space duality made more sense than Light/Time (the most mentioned combination), I think.

On another note, some original text has been repurposed in modern games. For example, Old Verse 18 (iirc) is identical to s mantra repeated all over the different versions of the Creation Myth: "Do not anger [Palkia]. Do not sadden [Dialga]." etc. The names are censored in the Old Verse and in the Canalave Library, but it's very clearly rhe exact same composition.

anyways, I'm currently working on a big Pokemon theology worldbuilding doc for ME and ME ALONE and it goes so deep you wouldn't believe. it also is so much fun it's as if a new game just dropped.

if anyone has any questions about any myth revealed PLEASE ask me i know way too much now and I think I found a way to make it make sense

Since it's come to my attention a lot of folks don't know ATDAO....... here's an intro post :3c

All the Doors are Open! A funky lil sci-fi-ish, fantasy-ish, horror-ish tale about some South Australian kids going about their daily lives... oh, and also reality is collapsing and cracks between universes called Ports are appearing, letting otherworldly energy leak through and wreak havoc.

Four plotlines intertwine into one big stupid plotline, n the key players are as follows:

Tris Greer, panic attack in human form, who just witnessed a freak car accident that somehow caused his older brother to blip out of existence. The relevant authorities prove supremely unhelpful, so he takes it upon himself to find the truth and bring his brother home, even if it means a daring trip into an unstable air bubble between dimensions - a task easier said than done when he’s anxious enough just leaving the house.

Yun Sung-won, edgy intimidating badass hiding nooo insecurities or trauma whatsoever, who can suddenly bend and break the reality around her the same way Ports do. The shiny new destructive powers might be kinda cool - if the crack in reality inside her wasn’t chaotically deteriorating... and if she didn’t work for the Department of Interdimensional Instabilities, whose whole shtick is eliminating dangerous interdimensional energies.

Shara Aleng, conspiracy enthusiast and amateur paranormal investigator, who's new in town and on a mission. She's been able to see cracks in reality no one else notices since she was a kid, and, armed with just a handheld radio, she's mapping interdimensional fault lines and hunting down the source of the apocalypse.

Kai Lancaster, peddler of haunted antiques and mender of cracks in reality, who went to investigate an abandoned house for an hour and emerged to find seven years had passed. They're now grappling with the emotional and social repercussions of their trip out of time, having been tossed into a life that's moved on without them. And how can they try and re-enter their family's lives when their family has spent seven years grieving them and fighting to get back to any sense of normality?

Anyway. It's a cheesy power of friendship story about the human capacity for kindness and connection! It’s also full of horrifying things that will make your skin crawl <3 We got existential horror, we got body horror, we got cosmic horror... we got love and courage and joy in the face of despair! Also, we got mentally ill heroes, including one with psychosis and one with a dissociative disorder, whose experiences are never demonised or used as cheap plot twists :3

Here is the them:

I'm not posting much about it at the moment but it's my longest-standing WIP and very close to my heart :D I've been working on some version of it since I was 16! Lemme know at any time if you wanna be added to the tag list~ I can't guarantee I'll work on it soon but I CAN guarantee I'll work on it sometime!

i got an email today from my uni that was sent to all students from the faculty i'm in and it's a job offer for a project from the uni's school museum where they catalogue and analyze old school note/exercise books from 1820-1950s and...idk i should probably apply right??? They're not even asking for a CV (mine would be empty), how often do you get that lmao. And it's only 6 hours a week, starting this October and the project is supposed to last 3 months and there is a possibilty of the museum hiring you for longer. And i mean, if it sucks i guess i can push through the 3 months? should i do it ahhhh my panic brain is screaming but it's not often that there is a job offer that is that nice

Sparkstember Day 30: Whatever!

Unbelievable... I told myself that I'd do something (something pretty damn ambitious for what I usually manage to do at that) and then I actually did it! I hope you liked the posts because I really loved preparing them!! <3 Sparks mean so much to me, which is probably very easy to see by now, haha... So I'm glad I could celebrate that with you all for this entire month!

I think this is also a good time to say thank you to this whole fandom... Because as someone who was once seriously the MOST anxious person on earth that you could possibly imagine, who couldn't even bear to be perceived by anyone or participate in any community, I feel so lucky to have you all!! I've been here for only about 4 months, but it feels like much much longer than that, because my life is completely different now in a major way. I'm no longer so terribly scared to do things I want and express myself openly, and this whole month was also an amazing opportunity for the latter! And now I truly feel stronger and more ready to face new challenges and try new things than ever before! <3 Also, thank you to the folks who have shown me support when I really needed it over those past couple of months, because without you it would have been a much much harder time :) :')

Thank you all once more and see you NOT next year, I mean, yeahhhh I'll see you next year during the next Sparkstember that's true, but I can assure you that I'll still be sparksposting and sharing more doodles in the meantime!! Never putting a stop to that! :] Hooray for Sparks and this amazing fandom! ✨️✨️✨️

(And here's all the drawings which I framed like I said I would lol. Looking at them now will always remind me of all the amazingness of this year's Sparkstember!)
