I have the two dumbest horses alive

Sometimes magic sky horses can be eldritch horrors, and that’s beautiful.

stress levels during keyfish: highest to lowest

1) matt, who had to use his phone to roll 100d6 and tell his girlfriend she got 363 points of damage and died because she jumped off a fucking cliff

2) liam, the only person who fully grasps that one of them just fucking died

3) ashley, shocked and offended at travis laughing about this

4) laura, laughing occasionally but very stressed

5) sam, who appreciates both the gravity and the humor of the situation

6) taliesin, mildly concerned but mostly amused

7) marisha, arguing with matt about physics, shaking with laughter for five minutes

8) travis, who is actively cackling throughout

Since it’s missing Travis hours and seasonally appropriate, I’m bringing this iconic gem back:

This is why I have several sets of dice with me at any given time... haha and a dice jail 😜

Is the dice curse still a thing?

The dice curse has always existed and it always will exist. When I am no longer here, it will attach itself to a new host. This is the way.

This is wonderful ❤

I’ve never seen a Garthy O’Brien cosplayer before, so I figured I’d do it myself

[shiann]

Such a cool method that I never thought of using on myself before, definitely need to try this

There’s a reason lots of good parents say to babies stuff like

“You’re excited to go to the park!”

“Oh, it makes you mad that we can’t go outside.”

And then when the babies get a little bit older the parents can say

“You seem upset. Are you sad?”

“Are you excited that gramma is coming over today?”

Which lets the kid (who is learning to utilize speech) respond with yes or no, which may prompt more questions, like

“So you aren’t sad, are you angry?”

“Yes, does it make you happy when gramma is here?”

And then, finally, when the child is learning to use language in a more complex way, the parents can say,

“How does it make you feel?”

“Why are you feeling like that?”

And it’s all about teaching emotional awareness. I really reccomend using the process on yourself. Learn to ask, “am I happy?” “Am I sad?” “Am I anxious?”

Then practice identifying, out loud or on paper if you can, “I’m happy.” “I’m upset.” “I’m sad.” “I’m anxious.”

Final step: “Why am I feeling anxious? I’m still thinking about that awkward conversation earlier.” “Why am I happy? It’s such a beautiful day outside.” “Why am I sad? None of my friends are responding to my messages.”

It really helps you notice patterns (“I’m more likely to be happy when I’m around this person.” “When I haven’t eaten, I often feel angry.” “If I don’t plan ahead, I get anxious.”) which is the first step in avoiding things and people that are bad for you and encouraging things and people that are good.
