I have dyspraxia. It’s linked directly to my coordination problems.

I’m a messy eater, I get food ALL over myself. It’s just who I am, and I’ve been that way for as long as I can remember. All my life I got teased for the way I’m such a messy eater. It isn’t my fault, I can’t help it. I can’t grip a fork right because of my dyspraxia, making it so I eat more messy.

I do the best I can, and it’s embarrassing to eat in front of others. I wish that more people weren’t so judgmental. I wish that more people were understanding. I wish that more people weren’t mean about it. I do the best that I can, and that matters.

dart doodles. a baby boy, and his teeths

#dart ute #under the eyes #sketch #oc #toddler dart ran around on all fours a lot. his biped coordination was still pretty bad but he had a good grasp on Scrambling #he had a lot of health issues as an infant but as soon as he was well enough he was off to the races! literally! go purple boy go!

SUPRISE ART DROP! May you enjoy this May.

#pokemon may #this was. SUPPOSED to be half of a valentines piece. #but drew was giving me ISSUES #I spent three days messing with his linework before I gave up #BUT NO WORRIES I have other plans #might reblog from myself again tomorrow since i'm posting this when most est timezone friends are asleep OR SHOULD BE #GO TO SLEEP GUYS. #I may finish the other half of this one day when I'm not utterly fed up with drew #probably in an altered art style since he kept getting into uncanny valley territory for whatever reason. idk how #i think it was the softer shading/rendering over just sharp shadows and stuff #but congrats! you guys get two art pieces out of me in the span of a week. #so basically more this week than most months #may #coordinator may #pokeani #taylor's tag #art

hope that dsmp vol 2 flops so fucking hard & that a lot of the smaller CCs who got fucked over massively by dream and other large creators in dsmp vol 1 are able to enjoy other SMPs (i know aimsey is in area unknown iirc?) that r not tied directly to an incredibly shitty and disrespectful (at bare minimum bc u know i have a lot of fucking thoughts on dream) person. 

#ik people will probably still watch vol 2 albeit way less than before #but i hope that it collapses inward on itself #and all the shitty communication issues and weird dynamics existing in the dsmp 1 cause it to fail #and that wilbr + q w/ their fucking incredible lore . stay out of it <3 #not even bc i particularly care for those two above all else but #they clearly put their heart and fucking soul into doing their damn best to #(1) include as many other streamers as possible and (2) give us quality lore #like ik some streams were controversial especially w the former but #they were clearly thought out and coordinated and had passion behind them #versus whatever the fuck else happens when ppl like drm are given the baton to try and do lore #and it becomes a complete fucking disaster bc its clear that nobody corrdinated it nobody gave a shit #and they acted like the server only had 4 ppl and not yk like 30. like the fucking finale for instance. #discourse #whatever. i dont even care <- cares a little bit.

Oddly specific but shout out to disabled people who play rhythm games but can't do them well. Regardless of why I applaud you for trying these games!

the pokemas story with the family battle event is so fascinating to me because it never clicked to me that each person has their own "style" in battling and it can be hard to synchronize with each other as a team.... despite being family

#i know lusamine is a disaster of a mom but i really appreciate the gladion and lillie interactions since i felt that it was lacking in the- #- actual games. i didnt even know gladion was the older brother and i just assumed they were twins #i really liked seeing the other teams and their familial connections #lance and clair are nice to see. funny cousins #wallace and lisia made my heart so warm like i can tell wallace is such a great uncle to lisia #koga and janine... yeahhh love that for them #brendan and norman is nice too (plus norman talking to lusamine and understanding her issues) #gladion is really cool in this entire event tbh #~ rambling #pokemas hours #i think jaide e. and ethan would have the best coordination even if they contrast each other. they complement each other in a good way #however jaide stone and gold is kinda the opposite because jaide is. such a lawful neutral and gold is such a chaotic evil kid #how is that gonna work... /j also the fact that jaide stone sucks at battling so SFJHFSASJKF #stone family battle except jaide keeps apologizing for messing up but ruby and steven keeps reassuring (and theyre p good at battling)

had a very big day at work today i learned how to reset an ice cream machine and finally made a complaint about one of my coordinators to a manager. feeling very accomplished

#ice cream machines actually fascinate me i always take any chance to have this one trainer at work teach me to work on it #and i've had ENOUGH of this bitch of a coordinator so. seeing as trying to resolve issues with her doesn't work i've resorted to complaining #to the managers about the situation. if she hates me complaining to her so much she doesn't have to worry anymore. bc from MY mouth she #won't hear another word #diary entry

Thinking about how my fine motor skills/manual dexterity are fairly good (relatively fast touch typist, ok at many types of art, envied by peers for my onion-dicing abilities) but my gross motor skills & proprioception are less good and feel significantly degraded by joint problems with EDS (historically bad at sports, often knock things over especially when using a cane, was horrible at throwing/catching objects until Something Changed in 2019). World's least graceful artist

#the throwing and catching things issue may have had more to do with how people treated me as a kid #the primary shift was becoming less afraid of 1) failure and 2) things hitting me in the face #turns out if you keep your eyes open and track the object's trajectory you are much more likely to catch it #as opposed to closing your eyes and instinctively shielding your body #[shrug emoji] #I am pretty good at PT though... #it might be specifically time pressure and trying to coordinate many movements at once that's the problem #if you want me to isolate one specific non-hand muscle for an exercise I can definitely do that #which is why I uh. have judged people for needing straws to drink after top surgery #just move your forearm without engaging your pecs! duh. #ANYWAY. distracted at work about this. gotta go #boring text posts #medical

(Mildly) dyspraxic Barty Crouch Jr HC is back (I’m dyspraxic btw) and like just

dyspraxic Barty being secretly really insecure abt eating in public bc he knows he’s a rlly messy eater but he tries like rlly hard and then one time Evan wants to go to like a restaurant and he’s like having internal panic about it bc that’s like horrifying but he goes anyway bc yk he’s in love w Evan so

and yeah that’s it lol

#Look I know it’s not like an insanely big issue #But as a dyspraxic person and also left handed (bc I hc both of those for Barty) #It’s actually really really fucking embarrassing when you find it so hard to cut ur food u literally just like. Don’t. Or can’t or whatever #And like the trying so hard to not eat messily that’s defo an insecurity everyone has but like it’s so so hard to even eat like basic shit #Without being messy bc the coordination is not there my man it is not there #My hands don’t know where my face is when I’m eating crisps LMAO #marauders #dead gay wizards #marauders era #harry potter marauders #marauders fandom #barty being barty #barty crouch jr #barty crouch junior #barty jr #evan x barty #barty x evan #rosekiller #dyspraxic Barty hc

one of my favourite ask a manager posts is this question by a person who struggles significantly with organisation and yet was staying in a career where that is the main skill required. not because they loved the work but because they felt like they should. like there was something redeeming and important about that struggle

and alison replies like hey. you are being very unkind to yourself. you don't have to keep making yourself suffer. you don't have to keep trying to jam yourself into a round hole as a square peg

and then OP updates to say they got fired and that was great actually because alison was right, they were being needlessly cruel to themselves and also now they're on adderall and everything is better

idk I just think about it a lot. that self-punishment. the relief of someone saying this insane level of work to try and be like everyone else isn't noble or necessary. you can just go somewhere easier

#talking #musing on my bundle of coordination/clumsiness issues that could be dyspraxia or just part of the whole autism package #and realised i could not name one thing i do to make things easier for myself in that area #i just put myself into situations likely to result in failure and then feel sad about the failure #no more

If anyone has a spare thought/fuck to give please toss it my way I'm treading the delicate path of sorting out the possible (absolutely likely) fuck ups of a former colleague and explaining to their supervisor that they allowed said fuck ups to continue for far longer than they needed to all for the sake of not wanting to ask questions

#this project costs a million dollars easily and nonone felt like asking questions about how logistics were handled. #not until the coordinator was fired and we were left picking up the pieces. my boss is handling the budget issues as delicately as she can #and im trying to handle the fact that the postage/printing/mailing problems we've been having for literal years #might all be due to the fact that said colleague who was asked to retire just couldn't provide ample time to the mailing team #so that the funds could be allotted in escrow thus requiring us to front the cash from our budget or a printers credit. #which happened almost every other project #said colleague was 22 year tenured. they should've known how to avoid this. but now their supervisor is trained for this process #and is fighting any sense of change and claiming all the errors ans embarrassments were the result of other ppl and departments #my guy the call is coming from inside the house etc #i sent a very hefty info based email to explain everything and am now waiting for his inevitable reply where he argues it all #and i have to dig my heals in and politely explain that maybe the problem was in fact his team this time #im not looking forward to that because im at my limit with the designers and publication team and i leave for maine in three days #my fucks are becoming slim to none even though i wanted a promotion out of this

I wonder if the totally-barely-hiding-it-which-is-ballsy-for-Indiana Wiccan teacher I had in middle school knew what she was doing when she cast me in the lead male role for the school play in eighth grade

#i have issues with the Wiccan community these days as someone who grew up with Wiccan parents so i know the culture #and i eventually came to have issues with that teacher for other reasons #but like i adored her while she taught me and it was p obvious i was her teacher's pet #my point about her being a Wiccan is more to emphasize how different she was to my overall Indiana upbringing #and she was definitely on the more liberal side even for our little liberal enclave #anyway she HAD to have known what she was doing when she put me in a false mustache in two thousands and six #she said to the T.A who was also coordinating the play that it was because not enough boys tried out #but she HAD to have known

getting intense joy from painting my nails wasn’t an expected outcome of my day but it is definitely a welcome one!

#in todays episode of ‘oh dang cis ppl can also get gender euphoria huh’ #the more this happens the more I am convinced that gender expression is rly a personal thing #bc like. my roommate would NOT like to paint her nails or wear hairbows or skirts. she doesn’t enjoy them. #but she considers herself very feminine in her own right by the colors and styles of the shirts she wears and how she does her hair #I didn’t used to think I liked looking particularly feminine at all bc I found so much of it uncomfortable #turns out girliepop had sensory issues and the ‘beautiful lace dresses and nylon tights and makeup’ wasn’t doing it for me #but when given the chance to choose how I look. I find that I actually enjoy some of the stereotypical feminine stuff a lot! #and also enjoy some stereotypically unfeminine things bc they make me *feel* more like a girl even if they’re not like that for everyone #like my Minecraft socks! and t-shirts from the men’s section at Meijer. and button ups with loud patterns! and my undercut 🩵 #also a lot of it I think is just. I am expressing what I like and enjoy. and part of who I am is a girl. so having the ability to express #myself in my clothing means I feel more like me. which includes feeling like a girl. which is v cool. #like I have other nail polish but I don’t like it bc it’s smth my mom picked out for me and it’s not rly my taste. #I have a ton of jewelry but only some of it is smth I would ever actually wear. bc I got it from my great grandma. who had different tastes. #but my Minecraft socks and patterned skirts and graphic tees and hairbows are all things that show what I like! #even if it’s not super matchy or coordinated. I look like me! #and now I have nails in my favorite color and I’m gonna try and get my hair dyed again in colors I like #I just. have the agency to look like me. and I keep surprising myself by how much I love that. #instead of copying what my family considers to be ‘good taste’

Headcanon: adult Dawn has very high expectations for herself. Think "Surface Pressure" from Encanto, except she doesn't have any siblings. I think part of it is the nepotism, and it also doesn't help that she placed in 2nd at her first ever grand festival.

She's always on the go. She's either laser-focused on strategies and techniques for her upcoming contests, or she's just being whimsical and letting the moment take her where it pleases. There's no in between; both modes sustain each other. She's a natural morning person, no coffee needed. She loves being around people and Pokémon as often as possible, and her instinct is to talk a lot (preferably to someone, but sometimes herself) or to play with an object in her hands.

Wallowing isn't in her vocabulary; she will "no need to worry" herself and her friends into oblivion. Failing that, she either throws herself into new situations in the hopes that they'll distract her; or, if it's not too intimidating, she searches for a way to squash that worry on-sight. She will not go to bed until she's worry-free, and if she needs to wake someone up in the middle of the night to talk through a problem, then she absolutely will.

She often gets tunnel vision - she'll take action without anticipating the full impact, and it takes her awhile to recognize her harmful behaviors and patterns. However, once she does recognize them, her first question is a sincere and neutral "What can I do better?" (She'll still clap back at petty insults all day long, though.)

This also applies to her relationships - if a loved one is going through something, she will stop at nothing to find a solution. In fact, especially in her romantic relationships, she sometimes puts too much pressure on herself to fix others' problems, not quite understanding that others have different ways of coping, or that no one person can be *everything* for someone else.

Going back to my first point, Dawn's greatest fear is failure. And to her, failure is anything less than the very best - be it in her career, or in her ability to show up for those she cares about. I saw someone else post about how Dawn's offscreen character development into JN is about learning to enjoy contests for the experience and not for the pressure of achieving the same legacy that her mom did, and I absolutely love that! I'm not sure if *my* Dawn is there yet (even if she's gotten used to losing multiple grand festivals), but that would be an essential hurdle for her to overcome for sure!

#headcanon #dawn pokemon #pokeani #i realize that using surface pressure for an only child negates the main point of the song #but i truly think she would relate to it anyway. its the best ive got to describe the vibes im going for #additional thoughts TBD #the relationship section is basically aboit kohahika rn #but now im interested in how it would work for appeal's dynamic! #since zoey started as a better coordinator than her and is generally more self-assured #'failure is anything less than the very best' clearly she and gary have the same nepotism issues going on #dawn says no need to worry but in the long run it might be ash who teaches her to actually embrace that #yes im working on a dawn wip can u tell #edit dawn gives me the same vibes as alexis from schitts creek (positive) and i think that influences my characterization of her
