One of the reasons I think it's so important to foster intellectual curiosity and, ultimately, learning and a love for learning is how it subtly changes the very way you interact with and understand the world around you.
It's funny, because I spent time just to hunt and find a skull in Skyrim just so I could rotate it in my inventory and admire how detailed it was for five minutes, pleased about how I could point out and name individual bones (they even included the individual cranial sutures! Including my favourite suture (lambdoid suture)). I'm now trying to hunt for a skeleton so I can spend even more time admiring it. There's something funny and empowering about how the way I interact with things has changed with my learning.
If there is nothing else you do, learn. It doesn't matter what you learn, just seek out information. I know for some, a love of learning was almost punished in environments like school, so start out with things you are inspired by, things that deeply pique your interest. Learning isn't a punishment, it doesn't have to be scary. Whatever you want to learn about is worth the time and effort it takes to understand it.

kiwis paw pad is getting better but the new thing she has is she won’t potty outside with a bandage and bag over the bandage bc it upsets her. also it’s healing in a way where i’m 80% sure the cornified part is going to fall off. lord i ask why you have given me the absolute worst injury for a dog like kiwi. who despises foot care, and lives to go for walks. why.

Having some thoughts about Dark!Sizhui and specifically his complicated perspective on Jin Ling. You’re the reason my family died, you were a baby and had no say in what happened. Xian-ge loved you, your family orchestrated his downfall. You literally spit on his name, he would tell me to forgive you.
I’m thinking about Sizhui worming his way into Jin Ling’s good graces, seeing his loneliness and uncertainty and the desperate need for affection quietly eating away at him, and using that to mold Jin Ling into something - someone - better, because Xian-ge gave up everything just for a chance to see you, and goddamnit I’m gonna make sure you were fucking worth it.

Looks like she had surgery? Think Shebahn said she was gonna be knocked out too? But somebody with more medical knowledge than me please tell me that it’s not anything unusual for the brace for a deep knee wound? Guess ruetube might tell us more?
Hoping for a yuck recovery for her❤️‍🩹 girl has had a rough time and deserves a bit of luck
Also her giving the finger as usual and Katie covering it up. At least she’s still the same Rue😂

@pagetreader continued from x
She half yelped, drawing her hands away when Isaac stirred under the prodding of the forceps, but then her hands returned, her touch more forceful now, fretting he might jolt awake and spoil his surgery.
"Do they normally do that?" She asked quietly to no one in particular. Elias was still making his own aimless comments, perhaps to steady his hands, perhaps to settle both their nerves; she wasn't sure.
It seemed to Molly that her father was one of the few men in town who hadn't previously seen warfare. When it came to men like Mr. Abbot or Reverend Tallmadge or even Lucas Brewster, any of them she'd prefer to go to for aid in moments like this. She knew her father, if he was still breathing, would be useless in this area, though, then again, he was useless in most areas.

“ I need to prepare the sutures, Molly dear. Go ahead and put pressure there until I’m ready. As much as ye can. In a moment I’ll tell ye what to do next. ” She nodded, using her apron to keep her hands from slipping as she pressed down firmly on Isaac's side, gritting her teeth from the exertion. She took some consolation in the fact that his skin was warm, though she couldn't feel his pulse so easily. Molly found herself silently recounting the Lord's Prayer. She wasn't one to turn to prayer, especially not when she believed her own woes were nothing worth pestering the Lord about, but these weren't her woes, they were Isaac's, they were his father's, and there was comfort in the repetition of the words, "Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven..."
Her brow furrowed when Elias instructed her to grab the horn of gunpowder, but even when her confusion showed plainly on her face, she followed his orders, her hands not trembling as badly now when she held the blade to the flame. She knew the basics of cauterizing wounds, but she'd never seen it done this way, and the crackle the gunpowder made in Isaac's wound, and the terrible cry he groaned, made her tense, made her wish to jump back, to fall to her knees and cry at the brutality of it all.
“ Oh, quiet, ye blasted fool. Ye brought this on yerself. " She agreed with the statement, even if the reason for his foolery was for a different reason. “Thank ye for the help, dear. I’m sure it wasn’t how ye planned to spend yer night, patchin’ up my moronic son. ”
She managed to scoff a soft laugh; the sentiment was faux, but it helped, even just a little. "Thank you." She meant it, she knew he'd be dead if she'd been left to her own devices. "I doubt anyone else in town would have the sense to... well..." She swallowed. "He'll be all right then?"

I think you made #sewing trend!
Uh-oh, someone unaware seeing the trending tag might start thinking that sewing is fun and not entering a bargain with The Devil where you trade your blood for plushies.
In related news, I just saw my own post on my dash, reblogged by one of my mutuals from someone who wasn't me (you know who you are) so like. That was interesting.

dumb little useless headcanon i thought of a few days ago: ajax is very talented with sewing. since his family had fallen on hard times but were detemined to try and continue to appear as though they had wealth, clothing mending was done mainly by their own hands... which, with ajax basically raising his siblings, means he also had to mend their clothing as well. he learned through trial and error the best ways to sew tears back together in the most inconspicous ways possible, so that there were no tell tale signs of wear and tear that childrens clothing normally goes through. and since ajax has kinda, in a way, a determination to be the best at everything he does (this includes mundane chores like this) he practiced as much as possible with scrap and embroidery projects left abandoned. he doesn't need this skill anymore in a practical sense, since with the income he makes as a harbinger he's able to afford tailors and new clothing for his siblings, but, this talent translated very easily into being a soldier. with deep gashes and wounds, all ajax's underlings know exactly who to go to to minimize most of the scarring and the best sutures. when ajax's own clothing tears, he still mends them instead of taking funds from his family. he does consider this to be a life skill everyone should have so he actually does make his siblings also learn how to sew on a basic level, as well as encourages his underlings to learn as well.

a strange dream of mine
(perhaps merely a fantasy):
someone sees through our eyes
just for one shift
they see the monitors beeping, the parents weeping,
the children--looking like they might only be sleeping
the clock,
the way numbers look different when you call them out
after the phrase
"time of death"
then they see the family that screams
your next patient--climbing all over the gurney
they have been waiting for several hours.
you send them home,
they curse your name, your family,
(your own children)
because you had the audacity
to "do nothing".
next, they see the dirty looks
from all the parents pacing the hallway between patient rooms
as you rush toward the bathroom
and as you sit on the toilet, head in your hands,
they see you cry,
they see you wash your face,
they see you take one more second to steel yourself
put your PPE back on
and go back to work
with those venomous stares
stabbing you in the back with every step you take
toward the next patient you need to see.
then, the end of the shift--
returning home in a blur;
no one knows how you got there,
least of all, yourself
how you stare at the shower floor until next thing you realize
you've dragged yourself into bed
your partner turns over, half-asleep,
"how was your shift?" they say, groggily
"fine," you reply, quiet
you stare at the ceiling until it's time to go back to work
and do it all again.
and someone seeing through your eyes--
that's when they wake up
would they be surprised? shocked? horrified?
this is where the fantasy ends
because i'm too afraid to know
on whose behalf that silent witness
feels their heart break
(most of the time
when we lose sleep after a shift
we're the ones that feel most strongly
that we didn't do enough
and we saw it all
firsthand)

every day I am haunted by the awareness that in a Queen’s Thief au of The Silmarillion, Fingon would without question be a Thief (stole (back) a king, leading directly to the swift resolution of a succession crisis)
