It's not totally clear here why Dave's dream self appears to be already awake while his real self is also awake. I think we must infer that his dream self is in some sort of "waking trance" where he's technically awake but too preoccupied by certain things to be considered fully awake.

thinking about jade being lonely as hell on her island and going to sleep waking up on prospit and seeing john (not knowing his name yet) asleep plagued with the creepy dersite doll dreams with the scary teeth and just aughhhh

and she’d like overhear the white queen talk about the dark kingdom derse and the prince(sse)s of the moon that are there and trying to attract as little attention as possible jade would fly out there through the medium because shes so lonely. and she’d go to the purple moons’ towers. she’d find a girl is sound asleep in her purple robes and bed. but the other kid on the moon she finds is awake! except… not really. more like in a trance state. awake but not conscious. but she likes to hear whatever garbled stuff this triangle-speced boy has to say

the trip is long but jade visits this boy a few times since he’s the only non-asleep person like her she can interact with face to face. he usually seems lost in his own world, usually listening to music or talking to himself about stuff that doesnt make much sense. when she’s deprived of sapient affection she’ll touch him in small gestures like holding his hand while he listens to his music and he’ll squeeze back instinctually, and it helps her experience a microdose of the human connection. maybe he doesnt get much in the way of sapient affection either. when she hears The Horrors of the furthest ring another dream headset pops into existence for her to listen along with him and they listen to whatever music hes making. who is he

#homestuck #hs #dave strider #jade harley #davejade #kinda #just for visibility #idk theyre probably like 9 here #havent met yet at that point probably #a year or so later john introduces her to an online friend named dave #she asks about his hobbies and he sends her stuff hes working on #the sorts of music he sends her feels familiar #she feels compelled to learn from him and collaborate #hmm. i wonder since this free association dream dave is more id-influenced #if he composed crystalanthemums from his dreams with jade. because it sounds sweet dreamy and wistful #because it originated from dave in freshjamz #like waking dave i mean. because hes awake but like. subconscious dream dave channeling stuff #and he’s like. huh. whyd i feel compelled to write that damn #and he found it and was like “oh hey i dont remember even making this one its from a couple years ago Crystalanthemums.mp3” #and jade is like “wow dave this is really pretty!!!! i …… dont know why….but i have this feeling that i should be remixing this!”

I got to thinking about q!Bad’s memory lapses again and just realized how mixed up this poor guy might be with them post-island reset??

he’s gonna completely forget places and things like he’s done before, but they will Actually Not Be There Now. the feeling something is missing, wiped from the land, which is soon to be filled by new activity. recognition fading in and out as old clashes with new, difficulty to use the surroundings as an anchor bc what used to be familiar isn’t anymore…

#qsmp #qsmp badboyhalo #augh #dude in his memory lapses he still thinks bobby is alive like #if a place like his old house or max’s house gets wiped and he goes there like ‘huh why does this place feel familiar there’s nothing here’ #I will actually roll into a ball and cry #I pray max’s house is saved aypierre did add it to the list so

honestly at this point i'm just fascinated how terms like 'grimdark' and 'hopepunk' are perceived differently by people because i'll be like. "yeah no i'm not into grimdark stuff, you really do get fatigued if something is too bleak all the time" while reading something a lot of people would consider grimdark. "wait what do you mean this is grimdark, it has that lil shimmer of hope and resilience, surely that's not grimdark???"

something something one man's grimdark is another man's hopepunk

#back when overly sarcastic productions did that video on grimdark and how thers actually very little media that qualifies for True Grimdark #but i think it gets used colloquially a lot #and maybe i can read asoiaf and be like this didn't feel grimdark to me #but i will ABSOLUTELY understand if someone else goes Nope at the sight of it #everyone's got different bleakness levels probably #i remember seeing n k jemisin criticize the term hopepunk on twitter years ago #and i was like huh but the broken earth trilogy feels like the epitome of hopepunk to Me #it's probable that term has a whole host of associations im not very familiar with tbh. who's to say

reading about autistic meltdowns is crazy. in retrospect maybe that time i ended up sobbing self isolating and lashing out at people because I couldn't figure out how to set up my laptop the same way it had been before might've been because of The Autism

#i cannot deal with changes to things I deal with regularly #i need to have my phone and comp exactly the same lest I Suffer bc i use them every day #also perhaps i would get so upset over my mom cleaning my room (although being a nice gesture) is because she would move shit to places- #i didn't know and messed up the system i had #also fuckin. executive dysfunction. that's some shit isn't it #i had to move to a new desk early in my job to run a different room and the desk setup was different and I Was Struggling A Bit #also people trying to calm me down during meltdowns is significantly worse and i read a bit that was like. #'trying to interject into the meltdown may cause additional sensory overload. it's most safe to let the person self-regulate.' well shit #that's about right huh #autistic burnout also seemed very familiar and its a little disturbing just how close everything hits #anyways im probably autistic. good night #mossy's rambles #text post #luci's rambles #autism #neurodivergent #autistic things #autistic adult #autistic experiences #if anyone would like to add to the pile and tell me im autistic feel free ig. ive already been peer reviewed

Hey! Don't feel bad for thinking concept art Cazador was hot. He was based on actual real-life model Tony Thornburg.

I think I know why they uuh ... changed the final version of Cazador now lmao.

#bg3 #i'm like 95% convinced they literally just painted over this exact photo #cuz the colors and skin texture match exactly except for where there's visible brush strokes #and yes this is actually common/acceptable in concept art for video games afaik ... i just #dunno how to feel about it tbh #they rly crustified him and gave him a ... questionable stache and called it a day huh #anyway i saw the concept art a while back and went 'man he was kinda hot huh' but also 'hmm ... why is this familiar' #well it's because i have images of mr thornburg on my pinterest saved #like a lot of them #so i knew

#my friend defended her phd thesis today and I’m so happy for her #we were on this journey together until I quit two years ago and it’s amazing how well-researched her thesis is #however by the end of the day I can’t help but think that I could #do that too maybe? or I wouldn’t be able to? #also watching her defend her thesis and seeing familiar faces made me somehow nostalgic abt the whole academic setting #and lately I’ve been feeling such a lack of purpose in anything I do I wonder if it were different had I stayed #or is it nostalgia lying? I think factually I quite hated being at uni in the last semesters #but my problem was the supervisor mainly and I try to imagine now how it could be with someone else #so many maybes and hypotheticals.. maybe I’m where I’m meant to be as of now even if still not happy lol #oh i also remembered how i thought i would be lonely forever bc at my uni most of the lecturers are middle-aged and over women #and now i simply sit at home alone all day #funny huh

two different rabbis directly to me + multiple places online: jewish imposter syndrome is real and is (to varying degrees) almost a universal experience in one way or another

me, who has been actively practicing for over nine months and taken multiple classes while also being halachically jewish by birth: i am the exception and am an imposter in jewish spaces and should feel bad about it. no i will not elaborate on why i believe this is true of me and no one else.

#to be clear NONE of this shame is being messaged to me by my shul #i’m just so insecure since i was raised religiously christian and only officially stopped attending church in 2020 #*february 2020 #even though i’d been drawn to judaism and deeply uncomfortable with christianity for years before that #and also had a degree of jewish identity through my family and celebrating holidays secularly growing up #i stayed as long as i did because 1) the liturgy was familiar #and 2) i’d be guaranteed to see my best friend once a week #converts have to go through a gauntlet. i feel like i’ve…cheated. #part of me wonders if i should pursue an affirmation #whether it would help i mean #but if i did my jewish grandfather would rise from the grave and say ‘YOU DON’T NEED IT BECAUSE YOU’RE PERFECTLY JEWISH AS YOU ARE’ #on the other hand he was also an atheist and probably would have mixed feelings on me practicing at all #although i’m not the only grandkid who’s done so #two of my cousins (their mom is my mom’s sister) were raised catholic but switched to judaism at least 10 years ago #to my knowledge neither of them went through an affirmation process #ughhhhh #my posts #jumblr #i guess i did elaborate why in the tags huh

wouldn’t it be fun if the squip not only optic blocked michael but also made jeremy completely forget about him

#has this been done before #like #he has access to his memories i’m assuming #if he made jeremy think/feel like he was completely friendless #and without anything or anyone holding him back it would’ve been even easier #that also means unless the squip lies to him (which he could and does i’m pretty sure) jeremy chooses to forget about michael #if he does lie to him and jeremy only agrees to optic block him then it’s ‘optic nerve blocking on’ #and ‘click’ 12 years of his life with michael gone just like that #and he doesn’t even realise #he meets michael in the bathroom and he’s slowly like ‘i know you. you’re very familiar to me but i have no idea who you are’ #cause the squip is off and i doubt 12 years of memories can just come back in a snap #that’s also why he has no idea why ‘get out of my way loser’ is so emotionally devastating to michael #cause he has no memories of michael mell as a person at all #no matter how familiar he feels he’s just a guy in a bathroom. and that’s all he’ll be #would make for some fun angst content no #man my tags are really where all the interesting stuff is huh #tags compared to the post is a 12 to 1 ratio #anyways feel free to steal the idea idk if i’m gonna do anything with it #cant draw cant write #but like tell me if you do yk #bmc #be more chill #jeremy heere #michael mell #bmc jeremy #jeremy bmc #bmc michael #michael bmc #boyf riends #<- that would make it even WORSE

#as a side note i had a moment of horrid irony when i thought suddenly that I WISHED mr knight were there #because he was at the vigil last year and used to be a part of my church. and i suddenly missed all my old housemates #who were here last year! went to hug people during the peace and a good friend asked if i was okay #i was like 😭😭😭😭 not really and then turned around and SAW the boy and was like well this is a twist in the plot i truly dont care for #anyway all's well i just cried buckets more my heart's been wrung OUT #he lives fae away. he was not supposed to come. anyway he did and i shook his hand formally because he offered to (???) #*far away #it was totally bizarre #he did not stay for long which. thank God. i wouldve been so much more tired if he had #but he wished me happy birthday which irked me because we'd had an unspoken agreement to not wish each other happy birthday (for fear of #mixed signals) which. happened i guess #it was INCREDIBLY bizarre. the safest ive ever felt in my life was when he was holding me #and now he's a familiar stranger i know too well whom i dont WANT to know #anyway it has been a heartwrenching and soul draining Lent and past six months or more and i was ready to cry #and so i did. bawled like a baby after certain readings and songs. cried and cried and cried #re: reasons for that concerning the ex boyfriend: it is SO weird and i dont know how to deal with it #like. i still have so much love that it feels like grief and the grief bleeds into that love too #but that love isnt for HIM anymore or at least not the person i found he was. so now it really does have nowhere to go #ANYHOW IT'S LATE BUT THE POINT IS. HE IS RISEN AND THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS #THAN SEEING YOUR EX BOYFRIEND AT CHURCH AND BEING LIKE ?????? HUH????????

Does it seem familiar?

Waking up in a world with 13 other players, thinking nothing of them, at first. Running around alone, untied, unfettered, until a single choice binds you to a single person. but you now run around knowing how it ends, knowing of the inevitable red that will spread and then spill, knowing that now and more because of the ticking clock within your chest. but you now wake knowing that one of the players, the very one you would think of, is missing; and now you bind yourself because of an offer, rather than a debt. 

Taking up the role of protector. Bodyguard. Hand. Different words acting as shells around an essence of the same meaning; a meaning you never thought you’d apply to yourself, now worn with pride twice. but now you’re the one with less time on the the clock. but now the person you protect is in danger because of how much life he has, not how little.

Does it seem familiar? 

In just a few hours, chaos unfolding. Lives being lost; friends being hunted; and, when everything reaches its lowest point, the person you pledged your life to protect asking you to do the impossible. but this time it’s a resort, not a request. but this time it’s to give to you, not than to take from others. but this time it’s to bring peace rather than wage war.

...Does it seem familiar?

(And it’s the sea, not the land. A resort rather than a fortress, a duo rather than an army, a show from the 90s rather than a medieval war. But these are just different guises acting as shells around an essence of the same meaning; of the same actions, repeating over and over again.

And yet-

To offer, not to pay. To protect purely from compassion, not with necessity. To give, not take. For peace. 

...These events, you think, are like a shard of glass tossed into the sea. The essence is there and will always be, but the sharp edges are dulled by time and saltwater. They become softer. Smoother. Their core remains, and yet the harshness is lost to days the gone by.)

(Except there’s something else. Time may dull rough edges, but time is not the only force acting here. Just as sharp shards can be smoothed, smooth stones can be sharpened. 

After every winter, there comes a spring.

The thrill to kill the fleeting gill.

Always remember: the world is not kind. And if it is, it’s not very interesting to Watch.)

--

Or, in other words:

A single day/And then it’s gone

Doomed to repeat/Our will be done.

#and yeah remember how 3rd life was made of 8 3 hour sessions? #lasting 24 hours or a single day? #weirdly familiar huh... #also i'm not throwing any shade on renchanting (don't worry guys) i'm just thinking about how the circumstances for this seem so- #-much kinder in a way #buttttt not for long!! #not if the watchers have anything to say about it #but i do love just how equal the mean gills feel like there's no hierarchy or external duty or anything it's just nice to see #limited life smp #3rd life smp #3lsmp #limited life spoilers #martyn inthelittlewood #mean gills #renchanting duo #not a ship thing but if you really want to interpret it that way sure ig #although i would prefer if you didn't tag it with ship tags #<- she says assuming it's going to be reblogged at all #anyway everybody say thank you martyn for doing lore and thank you charrifire for encouraging the lore #i love it so much #trafficblr #my writing #(?) #traffic life ficlets

one of my friends from sixth form dated this guy for like a year and after they broke up he started dating one of her two best friends which was like.. ok bit weird and then they were together for like two or three years? and now since they’ve split up he’s started dating the other best friend and they all hang out together and i know it’s none of my business but every time i see the couple photos or the group photos it bothers me!!! how are you supposed to talk to your friends about your relationship when the other two have both been there and done that already!!!!

#i was like huh why does his new girlfriend look familiar and then i REALISED #it feels like. borderline incestuous idk #i mean once is a coincidence twice is a pattern like what is going on there #i just had to get this off my chest it's been weirding me out for weeks and they just posted some new couple photos #i do usually try not to judge people but sometimes i just have to be a hater i guess #talking

I never actually felt at home even once in all my years at my hometown but there’s a familiarity there on those streets that I fear I won’t ever experience anywhere else

#even now I don’t think of the place I lived for years as home #never actually felt at home anywhere #but that place was familiar #and there’s a part of me that breaks a little bit whenever I’m in the area and I see that things have been changed #and it becomes less familiar to me #I feel like I’m mourning it a bit #sorry everyone I’m in a lil bit of a melancholic mood at the moment #was roped into visiting my old legal guardians yesterday for a late Mother’s Day visit #couldn’t even visit my childhood room because they’re renting it out to this family #I don’t really have any happy memories associated with that room but still #it was a room that I had spent so many years in #and I’ll never be able to go back into it #huh #no fandom
