A dragon without kobolds is like a human without a taxes. We think. We don't actually know what a "taxes" is, we just hear humans bring them up all the time. We assume this is some kind of small creature.
sending optional hugs to aromantics who has to deal with getting valentine’s day shoved down their throats, who has to deal with questions such as “why don’t you have a partner yet”, who has to deal with people telling them “you just haven’t found the right person yet!”, and even having to get told that “aros don’t belong in the queer community” by other queer people, which is absolutely disgusting.
y’all are good exactly the way you are. 🫂
[ID: four pictures of a heart symbol that has the aromantic flag colours painted on: dark green, light green, white, grey and black. The paint drips on the sides, making the heart look wet. The background is black. The second and third pictures each contain a white overlaying three-word text in three lines, one word per line. The second word is over the heart symbol. The text of the second picture says "you are worthy." The text of the third picture says "you are valid." Both texts are in lowercase letters and end with a period./end ID]
If you've been harmed by cbt, I see you. You're valid, and you do not deserve to be subjected to more clumsy attempts. Just because The System(TM) claims cbt is a magical perfect cure for all mental troubles doesn't mean that's true for you, in your current place and time. I wish you strength and patience in all things, but especially in finding a healing path that respects you as a person.
genuinely it is much better to let yourself feel bad when things creative wise doesn’t do well and remind yourself that it’s okay to feel like this just don’t let it determine your value instead of allowing it to put you in some creative burnout hole
ursula k le guin said sci fi/fantasy does not have to be about giant wars or battles of good and evil or galactic disaster; it is best served as a lens through which to examine what is actually intrinsic to the human condition and what, once removed a few layers from our own perceptions & assumptions, begins to fall apart. and she was correct.
The first (but maybe not last??) time Edgeworth ever sought Gumshoe out in the precinct locker rooms.
I dont know who needs to hear this
But I sure did:
You can and absolutely should modify the chore/self care task if it makes life easier. Sit on the floor while doing laundry. Clean dishes while in a chair. Sit in the shower.
Save your spoons. Accommodate your fatigue rather than fighting it.
