Tonight I learned that my 20 yr old partner has never played chess and doesn't know how to play chess. This is mind boggling to me. They claim its not weird for people to not know anything about chess so I. I need to see. Please.
Okay so, I made a mistake in not elaborating the meaning of the options. You do not have to be good or know what you are doing in the slightest to pick that you have played before. The middle three options are for your understanding of the game having never played it at all. The reason there's a percentage on the last option is because my partner made a tumblr so they could pick it because they think they are hilarious.
also in terms of the bolas playlist it's fascinating to me that the songs added by each person have a slight tendency to represent a consistent aspect of bolas
like
the songs added by slime are their chaos
the songs added by philza are their rebellion
the songs added by cellbit are their rage
the songs added by baghera are their anguish
it's so fucking FASCINATING TO ME but i don't know enough music theory to elaborate lmfao this is Vibes Only
(mouse's songs i can't boil down to an easy noun which is why they aren't mentioned lmao anyway they go hard asf)
(also i went on the longest fucking unhinged elaboration in the tags lmfao i almost didn't have enough tags left to tag "long tags" at the end
(i could have even gone on longer in terms of where their characters were at entering purgatory [philza: cage for a cage; cellbit: fed worker murders; baghera: her past as a federation experiment; slime: turning into a code because of the code pretending to be his daughter] but i ran out of space and also time it's 4AM AAAAA)
it is mind-boggling that the first thing people do after seeing a horrible antisemitic attack, or the firebombing of a synagogue, or a mob going after a jewish teacher, or the assault of a jewish student, is to go out and make a statement condemning "islamophobia and antisemitism and other forms of hate" in that order.
I am literally obsessed with everything you do that involves sifloop you are THE sifloop artist to me
thank you!!! it means a lot to hear that haha
I've been like... near exclusively an OC artist for like 8 years at this point so every time i post fanart and ESPECIALLY ship art i feel like i have to fight every screaming cell in my body to post it because i feel like... RUDE? for projecting my own thoughts onto another creator's characters LMAO... so it's reassuring to know people actually like what i'm contributing!!
as for sifloop as a ship. i really should draw more isiloops because . rotates all three of them in my mind. but yeah. I think the thing I like most about the dynamic really is the like... way Siffrin and Loop canonically aggress each other despite an extremely persistent undercurrent of caring about the other not suffering.
Like. the back and forth between Loop constantly talking past/through Siffrin to really painfully insult the pair of them, and things like the [Forgetting Mirabelle's Name] event being so astoundingly gentle. just as a general example.
(RNG event that only triggers after certain actions so you may need to look it up)
THEN adding the element of throwing them in postcanon with neither of them wanting to upset the party and thus having to keep a lid on it... I like the potential dynamics of such a painful and conflicted relationship having to be almost hidden and downplayed so as to try and not worry anyone, and thus becoming softer and introspective while still keeping a bunch of the more insidiously toxic behaviour.
Both of them acting with genuine best intentions in mind but still understanding each other to have way *way* more sadness and anger and guilt than they let on, and thus being able to clock it. Both for good and ill. Neither of them enjoy confrontation, but it's almost unavoidable when they KNOW the other knows what they're probably thinking.
. but yeah i just think they're neat! also a bunch of stuff related to asexuality but . shh
You're Trashcan, right?
It's been a while.
We called you that because they found you in a trash can?
It was actually a dumpster. Trashcan had a better ring, I guess.
haii i saw u wanted requests what about blaze and marine in silly outfits? :3c
hiya!! sorry it took me so long to answer this, art block hit me right in the middle of drawing this so if some parts look a bit wonky just ignore them (specifically marine's hands. please dont look at them i struggled so much ;-;)
i didnt exactly know what you meant by "silly outfits" so i kinda just drew them in outfits i thought were cool lol
this was super fun to draw though! i hope i did your request justice >:D
So guys. Listen. If you have muscle pains or really just any chronic pains where you can't find the source or treatment has failed, I am begging you to look into trigger points, myofascial pain syndrome, and trigger point therapy. I've been reading more and more about it, and it's a highly overlooked treatment that can help with a broad range of symptoms--and it's easily self-managed.
I've had tendonitis in my elbow for years now, including some occasional tingling in the fingers. I took nearly 6 months off to give it a break, and the pain only reduced to a manageable level, never fully healed.
Last week, it was starting to flare up again. Earlier this week, I started reading about trigger point therapy.
Y'all, I found trigger points associated with elbow tendonitis and I've been massaging them for maybe 3 days now, and the pain is lowest it's been in years.
This isn't a miracle treatment by any means, but if you're out of options or if your only options are something drastic like surgery, it doesn't hurt to search up triggers related to your pain.
PLEASE LOOK UP PROPER MASSAGE TECHNIQUES FOR TRIGGER POINTS IF YOU'RE GOING TO DO THIS. DO NOT MASSAGE A PULSE. I AM NOT A HEALTH PROFESSIONAL JUST A GUY WHO'S IN A LOT OF PAIN AND DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN TO LIMIT THAT PAIN.
the sole and devastating problem with monkey man is that it will literally never be able to push past the people who think the concept of the film disrespects hanuman ji to be exposed in an environment where people see it for more than its name.
This genuinely happened to me earlier while I was sitting on a window sill in my school building (me and my close friend)
(I do not expect many people to see this lmfao but I just need to post this somewhere)
Context about the drawing below:
(tophat guy: complicated to explain my dynamic but all I'll say is that it's a close friendship with unintentional-intentional romantic undertones??? Idfk IT'S COMPLICATED, I'm just gonna label him as "close friend")
I decided to sit on the open window and wait for my close friend "Pineapple" to come back from somewhere
When he came back I stared dead into his eyes and smiled because usually I would "fuck around and find out" so sitting on an open window on the 2nd floor is definitely dangerous (dw I was facing the classroom interior, not the outside)
He straight up went to me, scooped me up, and bridal carried me off the window with ease, take note that he's lanky and is the same weight as me despite having a 7 inch height difference between us, yet somehow he carried me with so much ease
Usually he would tell me to get down from the window a few times before I comply but bro literally went "nuh uh" and did it himself, wtf?!??!? (I am a flustered mess and it literally happened 6 hours ago, I am definitely normal)
