#Three Great Ways to be Ignored

[rexscanonwife]

More official/proper ref of my Metalocalypse s/i 💖🫶💖🫶💖 I needed another milf for the books, I'm obsessed with it guys!

Like I said before she's the manager for @hotrodharts and @1980ssunflower and does a kickass job of it! She's meant to be something of a parallel to Charles whom she has THICK sexual tension with and possibly a mysterious past history with? :0 oooooo~ either way she's very fond of the boys, especially Toki, and in my dreams they see the both of them as parental figures 😊

EDIT: original meme by @tarraerae on Twitter 🫶

Flat colors!

Paging through a timeline today and the First Age was so very long ago even in what you might call the early Second Age. There is more time between the founding of Eregion (c SA 700) and the War of Wrath than there was in time in the entire First Age (about 600 years); Aldarion, living around the same time as the raising of Ost-in-Edhil, is six generations removed from Elros and the five generations between were all born in the Second Age: how different the lives of our own great-great-great-grandparents! And that's the earliest Second Age. By the time Eregion falls, 1700 years have passed since the Silmarils were set in their resting places; the Last Alliance happened around 3600 years after the Nirnaeth. And another three millenia in the Third Age! "Before the fall of Gondolin and Nargothrond in elder days" has very much the air of "a long time ago."

The First Age is so removed in time - and space! - from later events. Sometimes I feel this isn't appreciated enough. The Second and Third Ages have their own stories.

If anything, I think the First Age can be overrated in importance? Well, not in its own right, but in discussing later events.

#meta #i do think that for all that the creation of the silmarils and the creation of the rings are closer together in time #than either is to the destruction of the one ring #(probably. let's ignore valarin years) #the rings are part of one story and the silmarils another #when it comes to the ~story of arda or whatever #the dividing line is the war of wrath not the destruction of the trees or the akallabeth #(imo ofc!) #i admit to getting frustrated at times #galadriel giving three hairs to gimli can be seen in light of her refusing feanor but it's about *her and gimli* #there's lots to compare and contrast between the three rings and the silmarils if you want #but the three and their creation have meaning and value in their own right and you can talk about them meaningfully w/o reference to feanor #if you say 'maglor' to legolas his first association might be 'who?' or it might be 'oh yeah great songwriter love his stuff!' #(it's not all about the sons of feanor. who are secondary characters even in age one.) #(unlike feanor who's not at all secondary. but feanor's story is quite separate from that of the sons in some if not all ways)

I'm starting to question if I should even bother with the stupid paper.... I'm probably just gonna fail anyways lmao

#ive been running around stuck on Babysitter Duty for the past three days and the teacher only gave us any instructions on thursday yet #somehow expected a full paper done and edited by sunday. even if i wasnt stuck on babysitter duty she'd get a shitty paper just due to how #little TIME that is to get things done. but because i am on babysitter duty uhhh..... well so far there's no paper #ive been spending practically full days having to take care of my sister and i cant just Ignore Her so i havent done my paper while watchin #her because again: my focus needs to be on Her. and shes incredibly loud which makes it super hard to focus. fun combo /s #so i was like 'i'll just stay up Really Late and do it then' but that hasn't worked because my sister WONT GO TO BED if im awake. i was up #until 4am last night hoping she'd fall asleep and shut up and i could work but Nope! #and then i got too tired to even care anymore #i've tried explaining this to others and they're just like 'ok well you just need to find a way to make it work :/' which is very much #easier said than done! and im scared about this paper because this teacher doesnt accept late work at all for pretty much any reason #and im sure she wont understand my situation. because shes also the teacher that didnt understand that i didnt have the textbook on time #because it was still being shipped and i dont control the rate at which book ships and she was like #'..........okay well you still need to have the book by tomorrow at least <3' when i told her the book had Just shipped and idk when i'd ge #the dumb thing. so yknow i dont have high hopes about this #also just as extra 'make stuff more difficult' i have zero accommodations because my mom cant keep track of my fucking IEPs and they wont #let me have accommodations unless i have that and idk how to get a copy anymore. so i've also been running around with no help in that area #and it's not great </3 #idk im just stressed out and frustrated and i Want To Cry :) #vent

[forcedhesitation]

I'm actually still pretty disappointed about the changes that were made to implicate a canon relationship between gortash and the dark urge. you are given so much choice in this game! so it feels shitty that they took away your choice to interpret that dynamic how you'd like.

I had a dark urge campaign that I started and no longer will finish because I don't want that to sully my character's romance with wyll. it angers me enough how wyll is given barely any material for not just his story, but also his romance. like it's so unfair that rather than new material added to wyll's romance, all I was going to get was lines about how my character had a relationship with a fucking fascist. load of shit that is.

#bg3 #thoughts about media #I'm deeply upset about things to do with real life that are unrelated to this and that I do not want to talk about. #but justifiably complaining about media I care about? I have a degree in complaining about media. I can do that. #anyway. I had a really cool character planned and now I have to now reinvent him or make a new one. #likely the latter because he doesn't really make sense as a character at all if he's not a bhaalspawn. #and no I refuse to romance someone else. I want to finish wyll's story with the romance involved. #I only recently managed to finish astarion's because I finally got myself to focus enough to finish ONE campaign. #I really wish I had finished two by now. so I could have finished the dark urge and seen what the story was like without any changes. #also no I cannot ignore these changes. I think gort's a GREAT villain. but I don't want to fuck him. I don't get how people DO. #out of the chosen three he's easily the fucking worst and a kind of evil that can't really be understood as “fun” or “fantastical” #whereas ketheric and orin are largely fantastical in what they do and what they represent. #that people cheer over canon durgetash despite the atrocious way larian continues to treat wyll? #I loathe it. #I. have. a few ideas for a new character. I know I want him to have daddy issues because that's what urged me to romance wyll with durge. #boyfriends with daddy issues is not only interesting. but hot. so I want to keep that element. #idk if I'll keep the paladin I made though. or go an entirely different direction. #because in the process of trying to reinterpret my bhaalspawn into a tav...I had a rather clever idea that I'm liking more and more.

#parani literally Fuck You for turning the anime into The Bae Show #They don't even win like Leave Me Alone!!! #I dont care about these fuckass college students there way more interesting characters in there!!! #but noooo let's keep ignoring yohei saimon & tsubakis story. #let us completely ignore yohei & ioris past. let's just erase zens entire character arc #CHISEI HASN'T EVEN APPEARED YET!!!! HE SINGS THE ENDING SONG!!!!!!!! #But nope!! let's just spend another ep w a bae character #THREE EPISODES IN A ROW TOO.

swapped out my case fans all by myself and i feel like a greek god rn

#it's not that i don't understand my computer or anything. just whenever i have to switch out parts or fix something #i'm terrified the whole time of breaking something else in an even worse way in the process #....granted the top fan isn't lighting up but i'm honestly not worried about that. i don't care enough #my hunch is the leds are defective or something bc they were kinda packaged like shit lol #i'd just have to swap it out again but. i dont want to. #anyways #txt #like ok. my one fan's motor died. and i was like well this sucks. guess i'll replace it. so i bought like #five fans. bc the type i use in pc only comes in five packs for some fucking reason. and i was kinda mad that i had to buy five #but THEN like two days ago the motor on the OTHER fan started giving out. and i was like OKAY?? JESUS #GLAD I BOUGHT FIVE #now i just have three extra i have no idea what to do with. backups i guess bc they're kinda cheap oops #granted on the first fan i kind of ignored the motor problem for longer than i should have #and when the second one started making the same noise the other one did i was like BE FOR REAL!!!! CMON!!!!!! #but now...my pc is so quiet....it's beautiful #i'm like super sensitive to noise so it bothered me SO much #but now. she's nice a quiet. it's great

i am. still just so glad i got out of teen wolf when the cast started falling apart. like season three was such a shitshow from day one and made me INSANE as it was airing and i just could not continue to watch for season four after they killed off or wrote off essentially half the cast and killed all the found family potential and i will admit!!! that seeing crystal reed herself on a new teen wolf story DID tempt me!!!! i am only human!!!! i am not immune to allison argent!!!! but truly i know myself and i know that the show died a horrible death for me over the course of s3 and there’s a lot of good reasons i stopped watching it and those reasons will sustain me through my decision to not watch this new movie

all that said. @ my loyal six followers. please do not be alarmed if i end up temporarily in a teen wolf revival moment. i am not immune to allison argent and the nostalgia of it all DOES make me want to go back and reread all the old classic pack fics from before davis decided to start killing kids left and right !!! i am not immune to the powerful energy of sterek writers, nor to the call of pack-fics!!!!

#d speaks #teen wolf #god. teen fucking wolf #y’all know that when they killed erica i was mad but was like whatever that’s not a REAL death she can come back. i can ignore it. and then #they massacred my boy(d)…….. and i was in PAIN. but i thought to myself. it’s okay. i need to see what theyre doing. where they are going #and then. then they kicked motherfucking allison argent #and i KNOW! i know okay that it was crystal’s choice to leave!!! and yes i loved kira!!! but!!!!! #i was seventeen okay!!!! and they killed off one of the three MAIN CGARACTERS !!!!! in a stupid little mtv show!!!!! #i was not emotionally or mentally equipped to deal with that!!!! i genuinely MOURNED in the realest way y’all!!!! #my high school friends were concerned because i spent a week in like. a fugue state. like a zombie as if someone i actually knew had died #(yes i was mentally ill in high school and WHAT ABOUT IT?!?) #and at that point the show died for me. i couldn’t handle it #and some of the tw blogs i followed kept watching and going and i sort of peripherally experienced some of the new pack shit but just #could not make myself care for new baby characters when they Massacred My Boys……… #so i stepped out!!! cause i was happy for a while there to continue to just exist in that happy part of the fandom that said ‘nah fuck it.’ #‘solely post s2 aus here’. that shit was great #but then the more time passed the less fics like that came out and the more the fandom moved on….. onto the NEW plot…… and i Could Not Hang #and so teen wolf in my eyes was laid to rest like all the teenagers of color in the show #and now you come to me paramount plus. years later. when i am an ADULT with a fully developed prefrontal cortex #and you tell me. that allison argent is alive????? that you gave derek hale a child????? no #no you cannot and will not trick me into this. i will not watch it. i pretend i do not see it #however. i MAY end up rereading some of my classic fave fics. reblogging some old art. i am but a mere mortal #hearing tyler posey say ‘allison???’ DID hit me in my stomach. it did. i am weak #tw

Just finished chapter 5 of fe4 and I have to hand it to the writing of this game. I was not expecting Arvis to be this good of a villain.

(Spoilers for chapter 5)

Using the game mechanic of ally units and having them attack the rest of the enemy units to make Sigurd and the player think they were on their side was a such a great way of portraying Arvis plans.

Not only can you not attack them even if you know the twist. And the enemy commander doesn’t even attempt to take back their base making them unkillable and with no way out of this. It leaves the player kind of hopeless. Which is a great way to portray the tragedy that’s about to come.

Even the betrayal scene uses this, even if the player can’t do anything it’s a good oh shit moment to accompany the already oh shit feeling of what’s being told.

And then credits roll for the units as if though it’s an ending. Which it is but still.

Then the opening of chapter 6 being so similar to that of the prologue. Recontextualizing everything the player did to this point, to just be the stepping stones for Arvis empire. Like what a way to use what the player accomplished to show how this empire came to be. This wasn’t just told to the player, the player did the work. It’s frustrating but it makes Arvis look so damn smart.

Without mentioning that Arvis basically got rid of so many nobles that could oppose him in the battle of Belhalla. Both politically and militarily wise it was smart as hell.

What a way to use the first 5 chapters.

#fire emblem #fe4 #fe4 spoilers #seeing people praise the writing was one thing but experiencing was another thing #I can see the way three houses took beats of this game to incorporate it into itself #I’m excited for the rest of the game #LIKE WHAT A GREAT WAY TO SET UP THE BIG BAD #I know the big bad is most likely going to be the loptyr dragon but who cares #still uh f Deirdre she is not getting any breaks in this story like oof man every guy here ignores her agency 😭 #rambles #looking back eldigan questioning all of the conquering sigurd did was basically some pretty clever foreshadowing

#so for the last like. as long as i can remember. ive had a shit sleep schedule #mostly like sleep all day and stay up all night kinda shit #but i got sick/burnt out recently and slept for almost two days straight #and somehow it reset my sleep schedule to something normal #like i went to bed at 10pm and woke up at 5am for the last few days #and i havent had to nap #and the not needing to nap is really fucking with me #like im used to waking up. feeding my dog. and then napping until i go to work #i should be napping rn. but im not tired #i dont have to get ready for work for another four hours and ive already been awake for three hours #i went to the coffee shop and to walgreens. im in real clothes instead of pajamas. i did a load of laundry #im laying in bed (its so hot i might be dying) and i just. dont know what to do with my time #im probably gonna do some cleaning and packing because im moving in two months #idk im just feeling some strange type of way because for the last few days ive been. alive #instead of sleeping my life away #its so strange. i got sick. slept for a few days. and now my biggest problem is just fixed? and i can have a life now? #its 70 degrees today and the world is my oyster. what should i do? #i have a list of chores im gonna do. i might walk to the coinstar machine so ill have money #yeah i want to do that cuz im in the negatives in my bank account but i want to get a cool drink before work today #my dad texted me this morning 'noticed your bank account is overdrawn for the second time this week. whats going on kid?' #which is such a sad text to get because i know im broke. thanks dad. lets pls ignore my financial hardships #if you want to make my dad less sad hmu for my venmo /hj #anyways ill probs do that today. get some cash so i can get a frozen lemonade from wawa or something #yknow that post thats like 'seasonal depression seems fake until its 50 degrees in march and it feels like you took a party drug' #i think thats partially whats happening here. its 70 degrees and sunny and my systems dont know what to do with that #i hope youre all having a great day that you dont sleep through. i love you!!

I don't like the idea of havin bipolar bc it makes my narc loss of control meltdowns worse. like what do you mean I just have to feel like shit for months on end and there's nothin I can do about it. I thought I was better than this.

#text #rotting #no rb #mine #like not to compare two disorders esp not when the one Im abt to say was easier literally ruined most of my life #but from an overdramatic narcissistic standpoint I feel like bpd is way easier to cope with #like bc there's a trigger there's reasonin for why I think the way I do and how I overreact #and analyzin my patterns of behaviour and bein able to actually convince myself out of feelin a certain way #like I still am somewhat in control I'm just unstable #like by easier to cope with I mean like the aspect of internalizin I have this issue with me #like honest to god I don't want to go to a psych bc I dont want to have bipolar as if that actually changes my reality of my symptoms #also it was easier to ignore and write off any bipolar symptoms when my bpd was extremely severe #like to the point where attempts were on the regular. my emotions would just be volatile #so like general trends of depression and mania were harder to point out with the rapid mood swings in between #I licherally remember child me would say things like 'for a couple months everything would be fine n great and then next three months #everything would just be god awful. and it cycles' #and just thought it couldnt be bipolar and just thought the universe was mean to me or smth #bc again with all the highs and lows muddied everything and i have no emotional permanency #not like any psych would take me seriously tho bc apparently u cant have bipolar and bpd <- lies they tell u bc they hate borderlines #auuughhhhh #and not to be like this but its cooler to be a crazy yan borderline than it is #to be like a depressed sack of shit who suddenly decides theyre god for a couple weeks to a couple months #it also makes me bitter towards that one bipolar bitch who abandoned me bc their depression episode got so bad #like I have no inclination to not be around those I love the most when Im in depression. in fact I want to be around them more #like wow you really didnt give a shit about me now did you. auuuuuuuugggghhhh

[ms-demeanor]

I think the eight alarms thing is usually a maladaptation. You've trained your brain to ignore the eight alarms because you kept avoiding the training of willpower following the first alarm would require. I think some sleep therapy might help?

Hey so first of all fuck you, thanks.

Second: I love it when you read literature on sleep disorders, especially if it's on sleep disorders among folks with ADHD, and you see time and time again "when allowed to sleep on their preferred schedule subjects maintained healthy, normal, restorative sleep cycles" and "effects were not lasting without ongoing intervention; resetting the sleep schedule is a permanent effort."

Like, if I sleep *great* from 6am to 2pm and I wake up feeling rested and alert with no special help but I need to turn off the lights in my house and shut down all electronics at 8pm and beam a spotlight into my face starting at 5am to wake up at seven and feel exhausted all day, I think perhaps it is not actually my sleep cycle that is wrong it is perhaps society that is wrong.

BELIEVE ME, when I find the job that pays well and has decent insurance that lets me exist as a cheerful nighttime ghoul I am jumping on that with both feet. But until then I literally feel better getting six hours of sleep and occasionally sleeping so hard that i can't hear my alarms because of chronic sleep deprivation than I do turning off all the lights in my house and ceasing all activity two and a half hours after I get off of work.

Also: the eight alarms aren't all there to wake me up, it's just that sometimes I *also* sleep through the ones that are supposed to remind me to go sit at my desk and start work. One of the first three usually gets me up, but on a day when I sleep through all three of those I will be sleeping through all eight of them and usually a phone call and someone trying to shake me awake to.

ANYWAY after being treated with melatonin and light therapy and staring listlessly at the ceiling in the dark bored out of my skull with racing thoughts for sleep disorders that I didn't have for like twenty years the single most effective intervention that allowed me to get more sleep as someone with both ADHD and DSPD was to start hanging out and being active in places where it would be easy to fall asleep if the sleep caught me there instead of turning my bedroom into a dark, silent shrine of snoozing. Giving myself permission to fall asleep late instead of laying awake chewing myself up with guilt for not being asleep helped too.

Actually here's some tips for the sleepy bitches in the crowd:

1 - If you're laying down and not falling asleep in half an hour, you're not actually sleepy; read something or get up and do something because you're more likely to get sleepy faster that way than you are staring at the clock going "if I fall asleep now I'll have three hours and forty five minutes of rest when I have to go to work; If I fall asleep now I'll have three hours and twenty minutes of sleep when I have to get up, etc. etc."

2 - Allow yourself to be ambushed by sleep. Fall asleep on your cozy couch. Fall asleep in the comfy chair. Let yourself sleep where you fall asleep instead of dragging yourself to where you're 'supposed' to sleep if doing so will wake you up.

3 - The mythbusters thing. If you just lay down and close your eyes and pretend to rest you will feel more rested when you get up than when you laid down. Laying down to rest is better than nothing, it literally causes cognitive improvements similar to sleep in tests, and knowing that can help take off some of the pressure of not being able to fall asleep and can thus help you fall asleep.

4 - It's okay to "hang out" in the area where you're going to sleep. Read in bed. Play games on your cellphone in bed. If you want to go to sleep put on comfy clothes and bring a chill activity and hang out in your bed to do it so that all you have to do when you start getting sleepy is close your eyes.

5 - It's better to get some sleep than no sleep. Sometimes you look at the clock and it's six AM and whoops, fuck it. Okay, time for bed, don't stress that you're only going to get a few hours, a few hours is better than nothing. Lay down to pretend to rest at least and you'll probably feel okay.

6 - This one sounds silly and might not work for a bunch of people for a bunch of reasons but apparently there's some research suggesting that "well-rested" is a state of mind? I've had a reasonable amount of success with just telling myself "Yeah, I actually feel pretty good," and pushing through the day on a couple of hours of sleep. I don't *recommend* that and you should try to get as much sleep as possible, but yeah the next time you're low on sleep see what happens if you just try to decide to not be tired. It sounded like bullshit to me when I first heard it but I've found some success with it.

7 - This shit is cumulative. If you're doing a couple nights a week on low sleep that's not ideal but you're probably going to be pretty functional and you can work on it. If you overbook and overextend yourself for too long - I'm looking at you college students and new parents - it's going to add up. Try as much as possible to at least keep your sleep deficit nights spread out. (This message brought to you by writing 60k words of fiction in october and completely frying my brain because i wasn't getting enough sleep).
