A Poem From An Academic Burnout

When I was younger, I used to look out for the little guy

Give him the last dodgeball, hang out with him at recess

Now I care more about my reputation than about others

When I was younger, my teachers used to praise my intelligent brain

I used to read books, study hard, be eager to learn

Now I sit in class, daydreaming, wishing I was anywhere else but in the classroom

When I was younger, I begged my mom for more playdates with friends

For them to come over to my house, for us to meet at playground; anything

Now I ignore every text and call that goes through my phone because I don’t want to interact

When I was younger, I used to take such pride in my extra curricular activities

My acting and writing was everything to me

Now I doubt everything I do

When I was younger, I used to look into the mirror and think “Wow, I look amazing!”

I loved my hair, my skin, my clothes

Now I look into the mirror and say “How did I let myself become this ugly?”

Somewhere along the way I lost the heart that told me to help others

I lost the ambition to be amazing at school

I lost my extraverted talkative soul

I lost my pride and joy

I lost my beauty

So where did it all go?

And why can’t I find it? Because the only thing I can feel or think of right now is emptiness and deep depression

When I was younger, my smile used to light up a room

I used to entertain and talk for hours

Now I sit alone in the darkness

Proof that Tony Stark is not an extravert

Well, I’d bet it’s better results than one could get on YouTube, Twitter, or Reddit, but come on.

I’m going to show you why MCU Tony is certainly not an extravert.

I've already posted some stuff, such as:

Absent-minded Tony

Socially awkward Tony

As you can see, Tony has some issues that hint to us that he’s not always present or outgoing. And now it’s time to gather all these and other things and summarize our findings.

Extraversion: Large social network & Thrive in teams, crowds vs Introversion: Value 1:1 friendships & Favor independence

Tony no doubt knows a lot of people. Because he ran a huge technological company, right. Business partners, military officers, politicians, SHIELD agents, journalists, his staff, etc. Although this doesn’t mean that he communicates with many people regularly, or has many friends. And we know he doesn’t. He never had many friends. Throughout the Infinity Saga, he made a few, like Pepper and Happy. But before IM2 his only friends were Rhodey, J.A.R.V.I.S., and his bots.

He mostly interacted with AIs and robots, especially in his solo movies. This tells us something, doesn’t it? I’ll write a separate post about his childhood, but it is obvious that he was always an outcast: in school, college, before the Avengers, within the Avengers… We don’t really see him as a “gear” in this mechanism. He is most often steps ahead of others or steps aside. None of the Avengers were really his friends, and I’ll write about that too in the future.

Did he try to make more friends? He seemed to think some of the Avengers were. He thought Steve was. Remember this?

Or Bruce. But Bruce didn't even want to listen to him when Tony needed help.

And he left him at the end of AoU. But Tony thought he was a friend. Moreover, he considered them all his family.

That’s what he was doing – everyone around him, from assistants to teammates, were considered friends and family members and were treated accordingly. He needed that, not a large social network of "pals" and "buddies" he barely knows.

Let’s illustrate how he felt about people around him:

Deleted scene "Dubai Party" from IM (2008)

Tony doesn’t really talk to those people. He doesn't feel comfortable shaking their hands or taking anything from them. That's not why he's here, it's an alibi for the mission in Afghanistan. And we see that all this causes him disgust and discomfort.

The Charity Ball - IM (2008)

And boom - he doesn't know that Christina is talking about Jericho, which Stein sold to the Ten Rings. He thinks she is referring to this event. And he (surprisingly) reveals that he actually has social anxiety. That doesn't sound like an extrovert to me.

Alternate Opening from IM2 shows us Tony, who is trying to avoid going on some kind of dangerous mission. And then we find out that that mission is actually the Expo Opening. He doesn’t look excited that he has to go to the crowd, doesn’t he?

After that, he makes his way through the crowd of fans, communicating with virtually no one.

At the Senate hearing, he seems bored. He doesn’t pay much attention to the politicians, asking Pepper about chili, hacking networks, and making fun of Senator Stern.

After he’s done with Hammer and Stern he shows his public mask to others. We know he is not comfortable with this situation, but he has to deal with it.

At the party "Natalie wears the gauntlet" deleted scene from IM2

This is what Tony really thinks about these people. He doesn’t like them, doesn’t like this lifestyle. He didn’t want this party in the first place. He doesn’t even understand celebrating birthdays ("The Sub-Orbital Jet" deleted scene, IM2).

Sounds very introvert-like to me.

He wears sunglasses in public. Because he is uncomfortable when people see his eyes - they cannot hide from them what he wants to hide. And that brings us to the next trait…

Extraversion: Enjoy being a center of attention vs Introversion: Avoid being a center of attention

He hides behind sunglasses. Most of the time, he only shows his mask to people he considers strangers. When he's the center of attention, it's his mask, not the real Tony.

The real Tony refused to be the commander of the Avengers, despite being their benefactor and providing them with everything. The real Tony didn't go to important public events on behalf of the team, Natasha (WS and CW) did. The real Tony left the Avengers at his Compound and went to live with his family in a cabin in the middle of nowhere. And, again, we can recall what he said about his birthday and parties in general.

Extraversion: Think out loud vs Introversion: Think before speaking

Tony is not the guy who shares his thoughts with others. He thinks a lot. And he hides most of it from others.

Does he always think before speaking? No, not at all. But that’s his goofy personality, not extraversion.

Extraversion: Energize around people & seek greater stimulation vs Introversion: Recharge, reflect in quiet & Seek less stimulation

As we can see, Tony is not that much of a people person. He avoids gatherings when he can, and doesn’t enjoy them when he can’t. Most of the time he spends in his workshop/lab with his AIs, bots, and sometimes with Bruce, with occasional visits from Pepper and Rhodey. And he is comfortable in this environment.

With the Avengers he doesn’t act like an energy battery. Instead, he is quiet, calm, and just minds his own business. Look at the scenes from AoU:

At the party he doesn't talk to many people, we see him in a small group of Thor and Maria Hill, and he is, again, pretty quiet.

In Endgame he lives with just his wife, daughter, chickens, and Gerald the alpaca in a cabin, far from other people and their noise. He has nature around, a big fireplace, and paper books to read by it. This is his happiness. An introvert's dream.

Conclusion: all the extraversion we see in Tony came from his business training that started when he was a kid. He had to develop a set of skills: communicating with many people, participating in gatherings, selling stuff, running a company, dealing with journalists and politicians. He became the owner of a huge business when he was only 21 years old. Of course, he has skills formed by decades of experience. But we see he doesn’t enjoy doing all this stuff. This is not his comfort zone. His comfort zone is his lab and a few close friends. It's hard to tell from the masks he wears and his skills whether he's an introvert or an ambivert who tends to be introverted, but he's definitely not an extravert.

P.S. This is not a 100% comprehensive review of everything I've seen in the movies. There are many more examples of his introversion in the MCU. But this post is already huge, so if you would like to see more about it – let me know in the comments and I’ll make more detailed posts about each trait.

Beware of: The Pale Apparition and its Fluff Of Chaos

The horror lurks panting in the dark. You can not run, you can not hide. It'll find you and it will... lick you wet.

Dedication to @notasapleasure and @chrisoels and every other lover of long-dogs and chonky-cats! I wish you enjoy this thing at least half as much as I enjoyed drawing it!😘

My brain is a weird place where demons from Princess Mononoke live next to Dexter's Lab: The Horror and Podkowiński's Frenzy next to worm on a string🤭

@mciorr replied to your post “People who don't announce their visit earlier are...”:

Impose? If it bothers you so much that someone comes over without a day's notice (lol) tell all your close people that you don't like it and they won't. If someone comes over but you don't want to see them, you don't like them and you should have no problem telling them to leave. I don't see the drama, it's something easy to solve and even easier to avoid.

​I'm not sure you're aware but there are different levels of closeness between people. If the person is your close family or a friend who knows you well and they come over often and you feel comfortable around them it's different. It's logical you talk often and you know each other's schedules and habits, you know when each of you is up for a meeting or too tired to hang out. And it's still nice to hear "hey, would you like to meet?" because it means the person cares about you and your preferences.

But when someone visits once a few months or they don't even know you much because they're merely an acquaintance then asking if you have time to receive a guest is good manners (lol). It's not good manners to barge in without a word of notice when someone's chilling on a Sunday afternoon, or forcing someone to come home from their errands earlier because you're waiting at their house. Sometimes you sit in your sweatpants with a dirty hair and cat fur on your carpet and you have no cake to serve to your guests because you had a busy week. You may not care when your mum visits and sees you like this but you don't necessarily want your coworker or a not-so-close friend to see you like this. It's stressful not being able to prepare for the visit. We have phones for God's sake! How hard is it to call and say you want to meet? Maybe you're one of those people who like to catch others off guard, I don't.

Also, the fact that someone is rude and doesn't know that it's proper to give a heads up before they appear in your house doesn't mean you can be rude back and tell them to leave. And you might like someone and still not have the energy to see them on a particular day.

And yeah sure, people always take into consideration what you tell them. Everything's so easy when you type it, I swear xD

How to Spend Time Alone

One important aspect of looking after yourself is being able to not simply exist on your own, but to genuinely enjoy alone time. For the introverts among you, you’re probably already sorted, but I hope this nonetheless gives you some ideas.

But from an extravert, and for my extroverts, here is An Extravert’s Guide to Alone Time.

1. Surround Yourself With People.

Sounds counterintuitive, I know, but here’s an example of where I am right now: sitting alone at a table in the library cafe. No one is on the seat across from me, so I’m technically “alone,” but I can hear the librarians, I can hear the other patrons- all chattering away.

So I don’t feel alone

Ideas

- go to that restaurant you’ve been meaning to try

- go to the cinema/ movie theatre

- go to the theatre and sing along at the curtain call

- go to a concert and sing along

(Singing. I’m suggesting you sing lol)

2. Make time Alone as Special as Time with Friends.

Whether you’re in public or at home, out energy into time alone. Don’t just read your book; set up candles and fairy lights, make hot chocolate, and make a little nest of cushions.

Don’t just watch Netflix; make popcorn, put on a face mask, and make a solo sleepover of it.

(PS. You don’t have to do maximum effort every time lol)

Ok, that’s kinda it! Hope that helped even the introverts!!

THE BROTHERLY BOND MUST BE CHERISHED IT’S SOO FRICKEN CUTE!!! 💕💕💕

But seriously though- I don’t draw enough of John and not even Gerome!- Like- I’ve drawn him a couple times but I don’t actively draw him y’know??? I really need to draw them more they’re just- THEY’RE JUST THEM LOOK AT THEM LOOK HOW THEY BOTH JUST LOOK SO HAPPY- I CAN’T IT’S ADORABLE????? 💖💖💖💖

#Pizza Tower #Gerome and John Pillar #Gerome #John Pillar #Skecthes #I love these two just being so incredibly wholesome 💕💕💕 #I’d picture after John woke up not only did he go on a vacation but he INSISTED in taking Gerome with him #I also don’t know who I headcanon to be older like- I love that funny idea of Gerome being older despite him being smaller #(but still makes sense in a way because John is so extraverted and Gerome is so introverted IT JUST WORKS) #At the same time though I LOVE the idea of John being older and Gerome is just the younger brother that missed him so much- #Y’know when he got revived Gerome was CRYING tears of joy- #HOW COULD YOU NOT???? #Gerome only shows emotions when he finds out his brother is alive and well again and became the most happiest rock know to man- #I love them so much I don’t know what to tell ya’ 💖💖💖💖

i further simplified perceiving functions

se tests (and loves testing) sensory qualities of objects (including people) in real time and in a really slapdash way. for example how tough you are? how much pressure you can take? this is why se doms tend to be handsy practical jokers. they literally physically test you/things to learn about them. (here i used the word exact for se before which now i think completely wrong.)

si does what se does too but gradually, paying much, MUUUUCH more mind to details, minimizing the chance of failure.

ne is just like se except about potentialities of objects. idea pops up in ne dom's mind and he just squirts that out in a slapdash way. another idea pops up and without comparing pros and cons of that idea, ne doms claims how that's the best idea. both se and ne experimental like that.

ni is therefore gradual, detail oriented ne that pays a lot of mind to consequences. why? because whatever intuited by ni dom AT LEAST makes 4 circles inside the head instead of blurted out right away.

this is why ni and si doms tend to be bad talkers. they are not used to talking without thinking / refining / deliberating a lot what they should say. so when they HAVE to talk right then and right there, they say wierd incomplete disconnected things.

Here's something i strongly believe in: everyone is both introverted and extroverted to some extent.

i picture it like this: you have two "batteries" of mental energy. You need both of them to have at least some juice in them to thrive.

Battery A drains when you're alone and charges when you're in social situations.

Battery B drains when you're in social situations and charges when you're alone.

What is different per person is how fast those batteries tend to charge and drain.

Introverts tend to have their battery A drain more slowly and charge more quickly, and their battery B drain more slowly and charge more quickly, while extroverts are the other way around.

For me both of them charge very slowly, but my battery B drains faster than battery A.

So for a long time i thought i was an introvert, but trying to live life as an introvert meant my battery A was always running low. Then I tried to live more like an extrovert but that caused my battery B to completely drain regularly. Now I try to find a balance, to focus on one aspect long enough to charge that battery, but not so long the other gets completely drained.

Teachers telling us it's important to post your art on social medias, and especially with your name so people can find you and hire you more easily but it's such a pain in the ass

Like I can't use my main account, which means I'd need to make yet another alt, and I hate the ideas of posting art (even if it's just ocs and such) with my real name
