I'm thinking about chronic illness and wondering if others can relate. And I'm thinking this might sound strange to able bodied people, but it's something I wish I had more help with. My brain fog won't let me phrase it well, but I still want to write it down.
i had a long flare there, something mysterious, left me w brain fog and migraines and fatigue for a few weeks. I'm sitting up today clearheaded enough to do some work and I'm struck again by how it's scarier to be recovering than really ill sometimes. Being really ill is horrible but it's simple and straight forward. When you feel better you're hit fully with what you missed out on and how far behind you are and trying to prioritize which part of life to pick back up with the little strength you have. N it could just be a fluke - maybe I'll be back in bed tomorrow - so if I pick something to do that can't be finished and important TODAY, if I can't pick the one single thing that's worth doing this one good day that mightn't come again, I will feel like such a fool! I'm trying to be excited to feel better, and I am excited, but there's something so simple about the acute phase... "I just have to endure" is so simple. "What if I never get better" is a simple fear. When I'm properly sick I can't even torment myself with what I would do if I felt better, because I'm too tired. "oh, I could see my friends, I could work..." but I'm too tired to want that. "If I was well again"... I can't even picture it when I'm really sick, so my life doesn't look so bad because I can't compare it. When your strength comes back, your wants come back beyond the immediate and it's overwhelming. The fears are more complicated. I have the energy to compare again, and it really sinks in how much time I've lost to this. It's like the difference between being a child and being a grown up. I don't miss being a child, I don't want to go back to that ever, but my life felt simpler then and I could kid myself (pun intended) about so many things. It's not nice that recovery is such an anxious grieving time. Especially since I never know how long it will last, I feel like I don't have the time or energy to spare feeling frightened and sorry! I should be grateful to feel better, i should be excited and grab the opportunity. But it is a grieving time and I can't help it.
if i was an animal and i knew i was being observed and researched i would do something super fucked up. but only once. never again. ruin their lives. keep them guessing.
"I didn't comment on a fic I liked because I don't think the author would care or remember my comment anyway". fanfic writer here, I still remember comments I got on my fics from seven years ago. I still think about them and they still make me smile. your kind comments are what motivates us and what helps us keep writing.
I personally know writers who take screenshot and print out comments they got from their readers.
TL;DR comments matter to us writers more than you think. if you like a fanfic, never be shy to let the author know ♡
That point in a piece of fanfiction where you can tell something embarrassing is about to happen so you start fucking around on tumblr because you’re a huge baby with a crippling overabudance of empathy.
Fairy Tail Opening 16: Stike Back by Back-On! [8-bit]
It’s hilarious to me that despite being a villain, canonically Dabi is one of the few people AFO has no real sway over
AFO: Do-
Dabi: You have nothing that interests me.
there are 3 possible outcomes for if you ask your artist friend to draw something for u and they say yes:
they draw it in 2 hours
they draw it in 6 months and apologize endlessly
they never draw it and spend the next 5 years bathing in guilt
what people think is hard about writing: describing the joy, love, beauty, grief, loss and hope that form the richness of human experience
what is actually hard about writing: describing basic actions such as turning, leaning over, reclining, gesturing, saying something in a quiet voice, breathing, getting up from chairs, and walking across rooms
me? leaving fandoms? no no no you misunderstand me, i have never left a single fandom i’ve ever been in, i just find other fandoms to entertain myself with until i eventually go back to other fandoms i was in years ago
As I lay in bed sick and dream of bred I'm not allowed to make cause I might cough on it, today on MASH quotes that hit me in feels:
This is from Charles Emerson Winchester III
Charles joined early in season six, replacing Major Burns, who was a stuck up, all American asshole. Major Burns served as a reoccurring "antagonist" or target for the shows pranks, and to some degree so did Charles. Unlike Burns, however, Charles proved himself to not only be a competent surgeon but to hold real character
There are a lot of things he's said which blend the line between heartwarming and saddening, when he is not busy being an elite snob, but the one that's really striking me into the feels is:
"My father was a good man, and he always wanted the best for me. But, where I have a father, you have a dad"
---Charles Emerson Winchester III, from an episode I could not find the name of in my quick search
Any any I'm gonna rewatch MASH
Shipping isn't trying to explain why a relationship is actually canon. It's not even trying to explain why it should or could be canon. Shipping is saying "wouldn't it be funny if these two fucked" and everyone needs to remember that.
“how did you get into writing” girl nobody gets into writing. writing shows up one day at your door and gets into you
The only thing stronger than the power of friendship in anime is the power of homosexuality
I love talking to kids about disability bc
1. they often just Get It, and
2. they have 0 concept of disability as a tragedy or something pitiable.
I've watched kids get into an argument with a teacher bc they thought wheelchairs were cool. I told a kid that I can't stand for too long sometimes and they replied, "That's okay, I can't do cartwheels sometimes, but I just do other stuff then. You can sit down with me if you want". Today a girl asked me what the headphones on a classmate's desk were for and I told her that headphones are important for some kids because noises bother them, and she said she wished she had headphones at home, because her baby brothers make a lot of noise and it makes it hard to think. The idea that different people could use tools at different times is intuitive and simple and when accessibility aids are explained neutrally, kids don't see them as bad or unfortunate, they're just things that are useful.
Even mental disability!! In Kindergarten the other day one of the kids asked me why his table partner got stickers when nobody else did. I started off by saying, "Well, when you do your work well, it feels good, right? That's your brain giving you a reward," and the kid just right away went, "Oh, and the stickers are like his reward?" YES! You are 5 and have a better grasp on ADHD than most adults! Kids blow me away every day.
Here some other silly doodles I made
Making them wearing silly hats is very funny to me
I love taking reference from Pinterest cats 😭
If you're a creator and you needed to hear this today:
You have no idea how many people lurk on your work. No idea how many times people go back to revisit your work. How big they smile when they simply think about your work. How fast their heart beats, how excited they get when they see that you posted something.
People are shy with their feedback. Sometimes it’s because they’re simply shy. Other times it’s because they assume you already know how great and talented you are. Could be both.
My point is, even if you barely have any likes or reblogs, don’t get discouraged. You have a lot of silent fans, but they are still your fans. Keep on creating. Because there is always someone out there who will love what you have made.
the whole plot of ever after high centers around generational trauma and forced destiny…I think the fact that the only characters who’s family’s we have met besides apple and raven (the two main characters) are Maddie, Kitty, and Lizzie really proves that the wonderlandians are the heart of the show and manage to depict the shows thesis really effectively even if they are mostly used as comedic relief/minor antagonism
god i HATEEE HATEEEE HATEEEEE saiki x ANY character ship. like any and all saiki kusuo ship. LET HIM BE AROACE and before anyone says ‘aroace people can date’ I KNOWWW I KNOWWW BUT SAIKI ISN’T FUCKING SOMEONE WHO’D DATE GOD I FUCKING HATE IT SO MUCH LIKE LET ME HAVE AN AROACE CHARACTER THAT DOESNT FUCKING DATE FOR ONCE AND GODDDDDD CAN I FUCKING LIVE PLEASE LET ME FUCKING LIVE WITH MY AROACE SAIKI K
i hate terusai. i hate akechi x saiki. i hate aren x saiki. i hate toritsuka x saiki. I HATE ALL OF THEM I HATE THEM ALL
we barely have ANY ANYYYYY FUCKING REPRESENTATION AND WHEN WE FUCKING HAVE A CHARACTER THATS HEAVILY HEAVILYYYY CODED AS AROACE MFS KEEP FUCKING SHIPPING THEMMMM STOPPP STOP IT PLEASE STOPPP I FUCKING HATE IT ALL PLEASE
i genuinely get so fucking mad im not even joking and before people go ‘let people ship characters its not that deep’ SHUT THE FUCK UP I WILL GET MAD AND I WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT IT AND I WILL HATE ON ALL OF THESE SHIPS
i always get >:((((( whenever i see ship art/fics of saiki and groan soo fucking loud
anyway i just needed to get that off of my chest saiki is a character that i hold really close and dear to my heart because of how heavily aroace coded he is and that makes me feel really happy and accepted so whenever i see people shipping him with others its just it feels like they’re spitting on my face and stomping on my feet its so fucking annoying
sun&moons are cute, but i don’t think stsg fit the trope. i can see how they would respectively consider themselves as the moon in their dynamic, dependent on the other (especially gojo and how he used to consider geto his moral compass) but i like to think they’re sun and star to each other.
geto being gojo’s sun, bringing warmth into his life, helping him grow into the person he is. you need the sun to live.
gojo as geto’s star, someone who shines so bright that they’re borderline unattainable, so far from his reality. you dream about stars.
technically they’re both stars, but the way they view their proximity to each other is different; gojo “my best friend, my one and only” and geto “he was my best friend, but we fought and it’s been like that ever since”

People who say Will Solace's characterization is mostly fan-made do not have the reading comprehension skills that I can accept in my life. This boy had like, twelve lines of dialogue each in the first two series and I STILL understood him. And I love him so much!!! Nico's great, but I have always loved Will Solace so much more, he's funny and he's kind of mean and he's interesting. Do not undervalue the four chapters in which he appears prior to ToA. My boy has a presence!
