Hey to all fanfic authors here’s some advice about depressed characters. If they are depressed in cannon and you give them a gf/bf and say now their happy then it’s very inacurrite. No one can fix you you have to fix yourself( getting antidepressants would also help) and most times it your depressed even if someone tells you everyday they love you it won’t make it to away especially If the character has gone through trauma caugh caugh death of anyone your close to caugh caugh I can speak through experience that after shit like that you will never be the same. And nothing can fix trauma it doesn’t matter what you do it never goes away you could actually be happy all day then suddenly you’ll see something that reminds you of it and bam now your blaming yourself for it again. Stop over looking trauma and saying well now that their dating someone they are happy cause that’s bullshit if you do something like that try to make it they try to fix themself for the person so then they might actually be able to see a compliment as true and not feel like their burdening them. And look at their personality before and during depression to see how you would deal with it if you were in your skin. DEPRESSION DOSE NOT GO AWAY INSTANTLY. NOTHING DOSE. think about how you think you would deal with what caused it inside them anxiety, self douht, abuse ( physical, emotional, ect its all equally important and horrible), bullying, trauma ( death is common in this regard but so is much other stuff), failures, toxic relationships ( friendships, relationships, parental, again are important), not having stable surroundings,  mental disorders ( don’t brush over this shit it’s important to look at it you want them to not have depression), being prone to depression, being lonely( and yes you can feel alone even if your surrounded by loved ones), ect. A gf/bf can’t fix someone with depression. You can’t fix someone who doesn’t want to be fixed but theirs a difference between being afraid to ask for help and not wanting help. 

Now onto my second gripe. If your depressed you can still get happy (for me it’s just sorta clouded. Like theirs a fog of something else over everything but that’s just me and everyone’s different)while you can’t say they don’t have depression anymore randomly you can make it so they can still get happy it’s just not long term happiness. 

Third people are complex. look up their symptoms and check what stuff can help those spesific symptoms. for example writing down what you like about yourself would have different impacts on different people ( personally i cant find anything i like about myself. in class once we did a thing where we all got a paper traced our hand on it and wrote our name in the middle then went around putting compliments in the fingers and the only ones I got were smart and good at art which i just found sorta funny like guess they cant find anything they like about me either. guess im to much of a cynical asshole) or drawing could make someone crytical of them self just pick apart everything they didnt like about their art and wouldn’t be able to go into a state of peace they would just most likely get to get better at art but wouldn’t see they were improving. 

Done that was just stuff I would appreciate If you don’t agree with it then that’s fine do what makes you happy. But if you brush over trauma with a date then… I can’t do anything to you sense this is a computer but I’ll angrily save my finger at you so…

im sorry to everyone who has ever tried to talk to me and then realized my communication skills are equivalent to a stale piece of bread

I just had the best idea ever!!! Freeze orange juice in an ice cube tray, then put that in your orange juice so then it keeps it cold but doesn't water it down!!!!!!!!

artists on tumblr stop fukcing lying to yourselves you never draw those sticks and circles when you sketch stuff out you just die and you know it

why does everyone and their mother have a song called “jenny”

Sea Shanties 101: Let's explore

TYPES OF SHANTIES

If you've any experience in sea shanties, you've probably noticed they don't all sound the same. Some are slow, some are fast, and some are just downright sad! Well there's method behind the melody, and I'm here to tell you all about it!

A shanty frequently contains a CALL, which is what the shantyman would sing out, essentially the verses of the song, and the RESPONSE, which is what the men would sing back. For example in Haul Away Joe: the call is "Louis was the king of France before the revolution," and the response is "heave away, haul away Joe."

One of the first things to keep in mind is that shanties were used most frequently during tasks that required most of the crew. I'm now going to separate these types of work shanties into categories:

CAPSTAN SHANTIES: these shanties were used for repetitive work that was sustained, such as raising the ship's anchor at the capstan. Examples? Randy Dandy-Oh, Drunken Sailor, Eliza Lee, Barrett's Privateers (though this was written long after the age of sail!)

HALYARD SHANTIES: sung during tasks that took a very long time and required a break for a breath before the men started up again, such as hoisting a sail. Examples? Blow the Man Down, Leave Her Johnny, Hanging Johnny (Johnny really took the piss huh)

PUMPING SHANTIES: let's hope you didnt have to do a lot of pumping! Wooden ships were prone to leaking and so pumping out the water was necessary but tiresome work below decks. Examples? Santiana, Pump Shanty (surprise there)

SHORT-HAUL SHANTIES: for quick work, like shortening sails! Examples? Haul Away Joe, Paddy Doyle's Boots, Haul on the Bowline

There's some of our task shanties! Now why don't we go below and see what our off-duty men are getting up to?

Why, they're singing FO'C'SLE SHANTIES! These shanties are stories of life at sea, the work they'd done, the places they'd been, they can tell you a lot about a sailor's life. Examples? Rolling Down to Old Maui, Ben Backstay, All for me Grog

Fun! How about those far away in the polar seas hunting whales? Well I'm glad you asked because this is where we encounter WHALING SHANTIES! And yes, you guessed it, this is where Wellerman comes in! Other examples include Bonnie Ship the Diamond, The Greenland Whaler Fisheries

Now of course the most important rule of sea shanties is to have fun with your buds! Be sure to tell everyone you know about your newly-acquired shanty knowledge!

God the world is fucked.

Anyone wanna hate society?

Yes.

Well when I was in fourth grade kids were going on diets to get thinner ( ages like 9- 10 11 at the oldest) when I was in sixth grade a teacher had to constantly tell kids to eat at lunch ( ages were like 12- 13 at the oldest) their were multiple times were this teacher had to take entire classes to tell kids why you need to eat. During one of them I told the entire class the side effects of starving yourself ( I knew them sense at the time and still to this day I like researching mental illnesses and some of them were eating disorders)

Dont You just hate society. isnt it terrable that kids at these ages think about this.
