Not To Make A Serious Post Too Much But Remember How Angry Everyone Rightly Was About Bread Companies

HELP needed covering rent and bills. Please spread!

I was already kind of screwed over monetarily with my hours getting cut back to about half of what they were but it got worse. Tuesday (09/19/23) I got into an car accident while on my way to work.

While I walked away mostly unscathed I received a minor fracture on my right hand and my scooter (my primary transportation to work) is totally busted.

I only really need about $250 to make it cozily through this bill cycle without facing any late fees.

The fracture is unfortunately on my dominant hand so I can't comfortably offer commission or sketch requests until the splint is off unless you're fine with waiting.

All the links, @'s, and etc

its 2023 im done arguing if you hate mspecs or male dykes or female fags im straight up just killing you idgaf

do you think they know this is the funniest ask ever

Heres a reminder for you that being dissociated isn't limited to the common misconception where you are frozen in place, incapable of doing anything or even thinking, or experiencing a significant time gap,, those things. (This is a very important post, read till bottom so im happy!)

And while its hard to spot the milder signs when you're dissociating, don't worry i got you covered by bringing awareness, im showing what those signs could look like:

Dazing/blanking out several times

Hands looking weird (depersonalization)

Surroundings also looking weird (derealization)

Feeling detached emotionally, physically, or both

Light-headedness

Less reactive in responding

Forget things more often

Unable to focus or keep concentration straight

And many more..!

When you have multiple of those signs at once, then chances are you are dissociating (extra note that it can also co-occur with derealization/depersonalization). While it can be caused by various factors, i would like to add that it may or may not get worse as time passes and no one wants that thing to snowball until it got too bad (remember, preventing now is better than dealing later) so having a few tips would help:

Grounding (sensory): listening to music, feeling different textures, paying attention to things in your surroundings, trying different fragrant or scents, have some snacks to occupy your senses

Grounding (physically): feel your chest as you breathe, get your body moving to redirect focus, splash some cold water, hold something you can squeeze (such as a stress ball)

Practice being mindful. As it can help you re-anchor back to reality faster, regulate better, building more resilience, increasing awareness of oneself's state

Sometimes we go do our day without giving a thought that were detached from reality, usually by going autopilot and scrolling through social medias without being aware (well, atleast for me) and forget lots of things while being dysregulated at the end. So by being aware of the mild signs and incorporating grounding skills im sure memory gaps and those funny aftermath stuffs won't be a problem anymore, have a good day peeps.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that another sign is your hearing feels muffled, that you can hear sounds feel more distant despite close, i thought it could be grouped with the “less reactive” before.

EDIT 2: It is true that sometimes these techniques will not work,, so it's recommended to create a peaceful environment in hopes of going away sooner when waiting it out. grab some videos to watch, put some of your favorite musics or cuddle your soft pillows (if any, pets) and stay comfy! Do not stress about it because it'll be counterproductive. Full explanation at here.

Games for Gaza is a collection of 256 games on itchio, which you can grab for only TEN DOLLARS, with all profits going toward Medical Aid for Palestinians. these are the 10 games I'll probably play myself:

Neurocracy 2049 is a mystery game, in which you solve a murder by sifting through an in-game 'wikipedia' for clues

2. Multiplicity is a short cosmic horror game, with a retro aesthetic and interesting art direction

3. Slasher U is a horror-comedy dating sim with 18+ content and very fun visuals

4. Mysteries Under Lake Ophelia is a fishing sim that looks rather peaceful.... but is it? there might be something unsettling, waiting to be found beneath the water

5. The Corridor is a short meta game about the experience of playing games. more specifically, about the experience of walking down a corridor. what does that mean? I don't know.

6. Nuts is an eerie narrative game about.......watching squirrels?! and it doesn't disappoint, there are a large number of squirrels. the world you can walk through looks gorgeous, with stylized surreal colours.

7. Brassica - A Marry Tale is a gay dating sim with a charming art style

8. Orchids to Dusk is a short wandering game about an astronaut on an alien planet with only a few minutes left to live

9. Extreme MeatPunks Forever is a hybrid visual novel/ brawling sim, following the lives of a handful of gay mech pilots

10. Evolution is a game where you build lifeforms, and help them evolve to perform tasks

and that's just 10 out of 256! there's plenty to appreciate, so check out the bundle yourself
