I can't rightly remember the last time I had a banger post without Foone getting involved and making the graph look like this

The only one I can find from the past year that hit four digits without that Foone punk being responsible was the COD Lobby post at 13,872 notes of which 5,795 were reblogs...

... because that's on maia arson crimew's rap sheet. That was not a fooneboost, but a bingleboost.

*hits "load more" until all 5,795 are shown*

Jesus Christ.

My second best is the Dashcon one that none of ny'all could be fucking normal about. 2,067 notes of which 758 reblogs.

And that did involve Foone.

Trust me, I made a spreadsheet.

I started from the #fooneboost tag, then got a third party involved to get a top ten for 2023.

As the Confidence post from December last year said, I am full of confidence issues and apparently being dependent on Foone to do any sort of numbers here is still not helping.

It’s been two years omg, I remember the Laszlo fic first coming out… well sort of, you were towards the last few chapters the first time we met.

Damn, it really has been like two years since I wrote that, hasn't it?

I'm not gonna lie, Anon, I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with The Ripping Case of Ms. Delia Rodwick. I took a risk and played around with alliteration; the language is a lot more poetic than my normal writing-style, so I have a hard time reading it back. I often think that it was too much, that "I need to go back and fix it," or "nobody actually liked/likes this," but then I remember that is has 160+ notes. People asked to be added to the taglist, and they left such nice, encouraging comments on A03 and Tumblr. I also remember how much fun I had with my little experiment—how much joy I felt writing it, how frustrated I felt while editing it, and how much I learned about what kind of writer I want to be/what kind of stories I want to tell. So,

Do I think it's the best Laszlo fic ever written? No.

Will I always struggle with confidence issues when it comes to my writing? Probably.

Do I regret writing it? No.

Am I grateful you read it, presumably enjoyed it, and was it worth writing for that reason alone? Absolutely.

Thank you for inviting me to take a little stroll down memory lane, Anon. <3 Happy Holidays!

I figured out today that nearly every time I start working out regularly it is with the express goal of losing weight first, sometimes strength secondary. My brain is literally convinced I am unlovable if I weigh above a certain number. My specific ED tends to flop between over and under eating and I haven't really been able to find a reliable balance. Maybe planning meals? But textures and inconsistent fronts. I don't know, it just kind of felt like a punch to the stomach that I have absorbed so much of my entire family has all said about fat people, about my own technically overweight form. That my self confidence is still reliant on how I look, how well I can hide, how well I can conform to what is expected of me. It's why I've started masking again. My parents told me to stop acting autistic because I am not and I’m not supposed to be weird. I spend my whole day micromanaging myself, pretending to remember things and people that I have barely any memories of. That plus gaslighting via those same parents. It's so fucking tiring trying to be everything everyone wants from you but you. I have not told either of my jobs about my gender and I get misgendered all day. I keep forgetting to take meds. Anxiety keeps telling me everyone is mad at me. The law is against me for a great many things, including the latest ruling by the Supreme Court. Is anyone else just.. tired?

Thought tumblr whould appreciate this new song by Andreas Odbjerg, a danish musician, so I translated it.

Benny er den stærkeste mand i hele Europa Benny is the strongest man in all of Europe Han kan løfte en bil og et fly på en god dag He can lift a car and a plane on a good day Han har trænet lige siden han blev født for at blive en stor mand He's trained since he was born to become a big man Ja, musklerne de står så flot Yes, the muscles stand proud Men Benny sover ikke så godt, som han ku' But Benny doesn't sleep as well as he could Benny er den hårdeste negl i hele kvarteret Benny is the hardest guy on the block Der er ingen folk der fucker med ham, garanteret Nobody fucks with Benny, guaranteed Han har googlеt lidt på PTSD, men det gjorde ham forvirrеt He googled a bit about PTSD, but it made him confused Der' ingen han kan spørge om hjælp There's nobody he can ask for help Så Benny sidder for sig selv på museum So Benny sits by himself at the museum [Chorus] Og du minder mig om Benny, sig mig And you remind me of Benny, tell me Har du mon brug for et kram? Do you need a hug? Du' en kæmpe for mig, det du ik i dit spejl You're a giant to me, but you're not in your mirror Det er sådan, jeg kender dig That's the way I know you Sætter altid dem du elsker Always puts the ones you love Så langt, langt foran dig selv So far, far ahead of yourself Er det sådan, det er? Is that how it is? Kan du trække vejret? Can you breathe? Hvem trøster Benny, Who comforts Benny, Og hvem mon trøster dig? And who might comfort you? Benny taler aldrig med nogen om Benny's bagage Benny never speaks to anyone about Benny's baggage En dørmand er altid på vagt, han vil helst ikke danse A bouncer is always on guard, he'd prefer not to dance Men han bærer dem, der ik selv kan gå But he carries those, who can't walk themselves Op på femte etage Up to the fifth floor For han vil ikke være for lidt 'Cause he doesn't wanna be less Og hvem har egentlig lyst til det? And who wants to be, anyway? [Chorus] Og du minder mig om Benny, sig mig And you remind me of Benny, tell me Har du mon brug for et kram? Do you need a hug? Du' en kæmpe for mig, det du ik i dit spejl You're a giant to me, but you're not in your mirror Det er sådan, jeg kender dig That's the way I know you Sætter altid dem du elsker Always puts the ones you love Så langt, langt foran dig selv So far, far ahead of yourself Er det sådan, det er? Is that how it is? Kan du trække vejret? Can you breathe? Hvem trøster Benny, Who comforts Benny, Og hvem mon trøster dig? And who might comfort you? Åh-uh-åh [Bridge] Hvem mon trøster dig? Who might comfort you? Uh-uh-uh-uh Uh-uh-uh-uh Og du minder mig om Benny, sig mig And you remind me of Benny, tell me Har du mon brug for et kram? Do you need a hug? Du' en kæmpe for mig, det du ik i dit spejl You're a giant to me, but you're not in your mirror Det er sådan, jeg kender dig That's the way I know you Sætter altid dem du elsker Always puts the ones you love Så langt, langt foran dig selv So far, far ahead of yourself Er det sådan, det er? Is that how it is? Kan du trække vejret? Can you breathe? Hvem trøster Benny, Who comforts Benny, Og hvem mon trøster dig? And who might comfort you? Uh uh uh Er det sådan, det er? Is that how it is? Kan du trække vejret? Can you breathe? Hvem trøster Benny, Who comforts Benny, Og hvem mon trøster dig? And who might comfort you?

You wear baggy clothes because they’re cool

I wear them because I hate how I look

We are not the same

Emotionally healthy people are quitters ✨

Emotionally healthy people are quitters. They make choices that align with their well being. Quitting a relationship, partnership or job that makes you unhappy is a sign of self awareness. If someone stays in something bad for too long, it's not because they're strong, but because they're afraid or have low self esteem. Being emotionally healthy means having awareness, setting boundaries, and knowing when it's time to move on from situations that no longer serve you. It's about prioritizing your mental and emotional health over sticking with something that's causing you harm or making you unhappy.

Emotionally healthy people also tend to have good communication skills. They express their feelings and needs calmly, openly and honestly. They also look for guidance and enlightenment because they understand that seeking help is a sign of strength not weakness.

They make decisions out of self love rather than attachment or fear. When you prioritize loving yourself, you make choices that align with your happiness and growth, rather than staying in situations out of comfort or insecurity.

Recognizing when you have an unhealthy attachment or that your feelings may not be conducive to your well being is important. It allows you to take a step back, evaluate the situation objectively, and make choices that are in line with your best interests.

Sometimes holding on can lead to more pain and struggle than necessary. It's a sign of emotional maturity to recognize when a situation is no longer good for you and to have the strength to let it go.

Things that are genuinely right for you should not cause you harm or emotional pain. Choosing pain is a sign of a lack of self love. Recognizing the need for change, prioritizing self love, and making healthier choices is how you begin to change your life.

Reframe your mindset from “this is hurting me because I love it” to “this is hurting me because I do not love me.”

y'all ever just get overcome by existential horror when you realize your favorite creators and/or artists are younger than you? like they're younger than you and already have done all the things you ever wanted to and did it much better than you ever could...

this is becoming a more frequent feeling and it kills my motivation and confidence every time -- it's nothing against those creators, i'm exceedingly happy for them... but it keeps slapping me in the face like: look at that. you're not special, see? you're terrible at this. you've wasted your life and will never have what they have.

Look, listen. The smoker on the balcony is obsessed with beauty and the fine arts while Cindy the skull is a contemporary artist all about activism and I need them to interact so badly because they would have THEE most heated art debate of the century. Cindy would eat him alive but that's not the point their back and forth would be legendary you don't even know. Lesbian on gay man violence.

#disco elysium #smoker on the balcony #cindy the skull #also if I can allow myself a bit of indulgence. they both have some issues with the concept of home #cindy with her emphaty check and the smoker with the whole being an immigrant. I could elaborate if anyone cares #THIS close to writing fic except I'm not confident with my prose so if anyone out there wants to take this concept and run #please you have my blessing

Today I made a mistake at work and was subtlety accused of being overconfident with my knowledge. If only I had more confidence the mistake would not take place.

If there is anything that didn't contribute to the mistake it would be my overconfidence, since I lack any to begin with.

edit: btw it is not safe to wear contacts in the shower! the option is included for accuracy, but please consider throwing on an old pair of glasses or just going blind into that wet box instead.

#this is NORMAL BEHAVIOR . its IMPORTANT to SEE in there. what if there are clowns or killers.#to be clear. all my soaps and liquids are very different shapes and identifying them is not a concern. its the terror of the unknown #edit: btw im not trying to convert anyone. but i am gonna shotgun more concerns:#facewashing: you hold the glasses in your hands (the arm between your fingers.) or you set them down for a little bit #the fog: this is a non issue /srs. i rinse them down before i do the rest so they don't fog up #the water: my lenses might be water repellent? idk. the drops that remain are small and unobtrusive #the hard water damage: again this is a non issue. the water where i live is not that hard. id be washing them in the water anyways #drying droplets: i wipe them with a glasses cloth after i get out of the shower #i do not care that you guys dont wear your glasses but i DO think you should google how to clean glasses before #telling everyone very confidently that getting them wet is?? bad for them??? clean your glasses dude

Please take note that everything you consume is affecting your energy. The Netflix series you're binging on, the words in the songs you listen to, the news you consume, the conversations you have, the foods you eat….It’s all impacting your energy field. So my question today is what are you allowing into your life that is keeping you in the gutter? If you’re suffering with anxiety, depression, feeling like crap, feeling insecure, what exactly are you doing to protect your energy? How far are you willing to go to keep your energy safe and guarded from those low vibration energies that are coming for you daily?…Are you willing to stop complaining about everything wrong in your life as you open your mouth each day? Are you willing to consume foods that make you feel nourished? Are you willing to switch off the news so you don’t take on the problems of the world and feel helpless? Protecting your energy is crucial for survival and happiness in this world, your energy deserves to be protected. You deserve to feel happy, to feel good, and it starts with you saying no. Saying no where possible to the things that are bringing you down…just a little thought of the day.
