I love you smile lines and worry lines and grey and white hair and wrinkles and purple spiderweb veins and the process of aging and living in a body that is standing the test of times. I love you experiences that make you wiser and stories that make you laugh, and every little process that happens to get to the point where you have so many memories because you have the fortune to be here and be so radiant

#positivity #pro aging #also i hate you 'anti aging' scams that capitalize on fear of aging. death by 1000000 papercuts for ye #saw a hair video where they restored the salt-and-pepper colour in an older clients hair and it looked SO GOOD at the end #i love when people throw in the towel and embrace their aging however that looks #it isn't productive to shame people who are ashamed of aging and i just want to. celebrate aging #in a world that simultaneously venerates youth and adulthood and hates BOTH you need to find some sense of freedom #as a Young Adult(tm) please please PLEASE older folks seeing this/following me know that i look up to you #older folks i need you to know that your worth NEVER diminished when you added a new number on your birthday cake #and your body and mind and soul NEVER lost worth because it started to creak a little at the joints #and i might be wrong about this because i'm still young but it can be SO tempted to miss your youth when you feel like... #...you've somehow LOST part of yourself by growing older. and so much of aging is about change and some things don't stay the same... #...and that IS scary and i will never once fault somebody for that. but please don't fall into the trap that because you've aged that... #...you somehow have forever lost fundamental pieces of Who You Are and you could never come back from that... #...for your own sake and sanity you deserve to find comfort and solice and understanding in who you still are... #...because you are still - at the core - the same. you can never take this away from yourself #and i know this might ring hollow because i just don't get what it's like to be older #but i have looked at my elders and felt awe at their age and their experiences #and i know what that is like and it's awesome. i just wish more older people knew that so many of us look at you with awe... #...and - if you can believe it - some of us ENVY your age or experiences or even body #i'm watching an 'older' content creator (older by internet standards 🙄) and i envy him for how eventful his life was #i envy that he experienced a different world - one that i have only heard about from my dad because i was too young to remember it #and i admire this person for their wisdom and thoughts because they've come from his experiences living in a Different World #it's that type of stuff that makes me unafraid to keep on living #inspired by following somebody like. twice my age posting about their excitement abiut growing older and !!!!!!! YEAHHHHHH #didn't realize they were closer to my dad's age but that's so cool???????????

Sometimes, I really fucking hate Skyrim.

So, a long time ago, I created a simple little mod for Skyrim that just replaced the "Riekling death noise" with sound-files that were silent. A simple, elegant solution that Skyrim has always been okay with.

Of course, for some fucking reason, this didn't work. I spent hours upon hours trying to figure out what was wrong, to no avail.

In the end, I threw my hands up, left the mod installed (since it didn't get in the way) and started a new save. Boom, no death-noise.

Obviously I was mystified and vaguely horrified at the possible implication that the sound-file was somehow hardcoded into the save-file, because how the fuck would that even happen????

But it worked, right? So who gives a shit. Live and let live.

Killed a riekling today, and it made the death-noise.

Immediately went to check that I'd installed the mod, and yeah, it'd been installed from the start. So, clearly it'd become quiet back then for some completely different reason.

Was very unhappy about it, but decided to open the Creation-Kit to see if I could track something down. Ended up finding a "riekling death-noise"-file that clearly linked to all of those aforementioned sound-files, and-...

And nothing was using that file. As in, nothing was referencing or calling to this file at all.

Which would mean that the Creation-Kit is telling me that SOMEHOW the game just spontaneously without any references or anything at all, just plays the death-noise (that has already been erased from the game) exactly when it needs to.

And like... what the fuck dude?

#obviously i tried to make some audio-template use it as a reference ''upon death'' and nothing at all changed #but whether or not that was bcs it played the sound twice (the soundless-sound and also the sound) or bcs i didn't do it right? #who the fuck knows. but since it's past midnight i'm throwing in the towel on this one. fuck but this pissed me off so much. #skyrim #video games #rants #personal stuff

i don't know what anon fever has possessed some of this community this month but please seek assistance, get some antipyretics, go out and touch some grass, whatever you need to do - do it. it's genuinely been the worst month to be on this platform since i started writing in FEBRUARY! i have been here 8 months and yet this month there's just been so much nonsensical hate, vile comments and animosity directed not only towards me but my friends, and it's really tired now.

#between this and feeling like nobody likes my work anymore i am very close to just completely throwing in the towel #like please shut the fuck up if you don't have anything productive to say #having to go through my timeline and see my friends being insulted and attacked #their blogs flagged #i'm getting pissed off now #ᶻ 𝘇 𐰁 𝒶𝓃𝒹𝓇𝒶'𝓈 𝓇𝒶𝓂𝒷𝓁𝑒𝓈 #avatar #avatar the way of water #twow

One last thing before I go to bed:

Sol's still mad (win quote against Asuka)

#textpost #It makes sense that *maybe* eventually he'd forgive Asuka but it felt rushed with how it was done in the story mode #Like Asuka takes the FoC back and they're instantly besties again?? lol #So I'm glad Sol's still mad about it and I hope we get a story later where they both talk it out in depth #And THEN it's decided whether or not Sol wants to forgive him #With all that happened a best case scenario is that Sol agrees not to wring Asuka like a dish towel haha #But GG likes throwing curve balls so I guess we'll just have to wait and see if they come back to it

THESE THINGS

YEP THESE RIGHT HERE

When I tell you I would rather walk out of the bathroom hands SOPPING WET with huge water stains down my clothes, then put any part of my body near these ear-killing-death-machines-that-DONT-EVEN-FUCKING-DRY-YOUR-HANDS!!

#Pov: the bathroom doesn't have paper towels #I'm all for saving the planet and not using more paper but this is not the solution #Just looking at this image makes me flinch #tw loud #autism #autistic things #volume warning #how do I tag this..? #hand dryer #they never even work #adhd #i hate them #I hate hand dryers #Lets make hating hand dryers a thing pls #starfruitsomething #AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #screaming crying throwing up #crying #why #fucking why #nerodivergent #Starfruit has a thought

These are just my top 5 cringey sensory experiences. I'm curious if they bother others and which one is collectively decided to be the worst.

Please reblog to spread this around!

#tumblr polls #neurodivergent #sensory #sensory experience #my posts #the carpet wet towel and sock ones have bothered me since I was little #my mom used to have a little chart thing that she'd add star stickers to if I /didn't/ throw a fit #about my sock seam being in the wrong place before school #I'm talking like preschool age 3-4 yrs old #she said it was a challenge getting my socks n shoes on every day lol #nowadays tho the sock one is probably tied with wet towel for least bothersome ones on this list (even tho they're still unpleasant to me)

Honestly say what you want, it's not healthy, why do that to urself.

Me hating people as a hobby is like 95% of my driving force.

#i hate seeing people i hate do better than me #ppl are like where does ur infinite art drive come from #like yeah there's an unnamed artist I'm chronically beefing with in my head #really forces me to crank out juicier pieces #everytime i think about throwing in the towel i glance at how they're doing and I'm like yea no over my dead corpse bitch #snd that's where I'm at mentally and spiritually

the temptation to introduce a Lucifer (from the TV Show Lucifer) and place him in the Good Omens universe to fuck with people because he would, indeed, fuck with people

#out of webs / ooc #Lucifer throwing in the towel after his antichrist son denounces him in front of everybody and the end of the world is subverted?? #ye ye i see that #it's not the first time he's thrown in the towel COUGHseasonsofthemistsCOUGH #i'm far too into this aren't i? fck #I'M TRYING TO GET TO DRAFTS I PROMISE

Wait since when does James wear a glove

#James aish #beautiful boy #Carlton were mean to you Jimmy #i want to say he's copying Nat but no it was an elbow sleeve that Nat wore #nat drives James' car and finds a glove in the glove compartment and thinks he's having an affair with Travis Cloke #'jim when did you join Collingwood?' #'oh ah would've been around 2016' *nat does the maths* 'so you knew Travis cloke!' #'um yeah Nat everyone knows Travis Cloke he's---' 'a well respected member of the gay community?????' #nat starts fuming and worries he's losing his boyfriend to Travis cloke #'what does that big oaf have that i don't????' nat fumes #james comes home and there's several horses and donkeys in the kitchen #'nat??? did you leave the back door open again?' James calls out warily looking at the animals in his kitchen #nat comes running in to the kitchen 'oh i forgot to stir the soup' and #'babe there's donkeys in here' James says slowly and Nat flashes a grin 'yeah aren't they great we're having pumpkin soup your favourite' #'i haven't had pumpkin soup since Brisbane days when i was depressed eating cup a soups-- wait did you find my pocket profile from 2014???' #nat blushes and quickly throws a tea towels over his scrapbook of James Aish mementos #James starts leading the donkeys out of the kitchen and Nat's like 'wait Jim i thought you were into this thing' #'no definitely not' James retorts and takes the animals outside #he comes back and Nat's like 'babe i can't pack mark between three opponents any more I'm sorry' #James blinking confusedly 'i don't want you to do that you might get hurt' #'but...' nat says frowning 'what is it about Travis that you're into I've been racking my brain all day---' #'Travis?????' James said 'you mean coyler that tea drinking weasel who---' #Nat quickly pushes his cup of jasmine tea across the bench #'no babe i love you and your tea drinking i didn't mean it's just that Colyer-- he microwaves his tea' #'oh okay' Nat said 'yeah totally ok now back to Travis Cloke' #'Travis Cloke?????' james cries 'i haven't thought about him since i found that guernsey in your wardrobe signed by David---' #'i grew up a tigs fan Jim' #'oh phew i thought you were cheating on me with David' #'is that why you tried to grow a moustache that week?'

Them retooling Miss Scarlet & The Duke to cut out the Duke has hit me really hard and not just because of them splitting up the ship--it's also because deep and rich a character William really is. And there was so much more to explore. He really was half the show. It's right there in the title.

In fact, he was a linch pin between the worlds of the show, uniting Eliza and Scotland Yard. But also there's the connection with her father and his mentorship of William, and then in turn William's mentorship of Fitzroy. The opening and closing scenes in 2x05 proved how much he was a part of the community, and looked out for those less fortunate, given his upbringing in the workhouse and living on the streets as a teen. He gave back, just as Henry did to help him. He's responsible and looks after the people he supervises. Ivy is right: William is a good man.

Yes, at first William did write off Eliza's desires to be a detective, as most men would in the 1880s. But then he grew to accept it, and then not only that, but encourages her. He does grow to view her as an equal, giving her cases, and feeling bad when he cannot. He respects her opinion (even though don't they didn't always see eye to eye), and defends her when other men do not. He supports her and tells her what a good detective she is, and that she can always make it work because she always does. And it's these words that she remembers when she decides she has to reopen her agency.

So many times he put Eliza before himself, and often at the detriment of his own career. In fact, where we left off, things were him poised for him to give it up in order to be with her. Because he loves her. It's a shame that we won't continue what what was set up, and it's a shame that that they've chosen to abandon the original premise for whatever the real reason for this mess is.

#miss scarlet and the duke #all in all I miss my blorbo terribly #and mourn how the friends to lovers got cut off right when the slow burn was getting actual kindling #I've had some really crappy shit happen to my faves over the years and what not #but now I'm at a point where I'm ready to throw in the towel on tv dramas as a medium because this ain't escapism #as in most of those prior cases the love between the characters was still there #here... idk what their plan is but I think RN is gonna be vindictive so #not my best meta but I'm tired and depressed and likely repeating myself #and I'll probably repeat myself some more as we go on

Started replaying Overture since my controller's working with it now and I forgot how evil this game makes me. Sorry Sin. I'm always forgetting about you and now I'm lighting you on fire and telling you to shut up...

#textpost #I first played this game while I was still working on the Begin and Artworks 2007 translations #So before I even owned the Overture Material Collection book #And it's really really funny how Sol's exposition makes crystal clear sense this time around #Oh yeah. Of course this chant is outside the 12 established Divine Steps because it's from the Backyard #Everyone knows that. Duh. *wild throws Sin* #I LOVE SIN DON'T GET ME WRONG. IT'S BECAUSE THEY MADE HIM THE TUTORIAL CHARACTER AND I HATE TUTORIALS #Paradigm though. Paradigm... I'm gonna wring his little chicken neck like a dish towel for making me research quantum mechanics
