wait i have one more thought about the gale discourse from a few days ago okay
OKAY so we all agree that calling gale an abuser is wrong because he was in a relationship with a literal goddess who obviously had way more power than him and who took advantage of him as a teenager/young adult and now has put a BOMB IN HIS CHEST and expects him to kill himself to destroy the absolute yeah okay anyways. the game literally punishes you for following mystra's orders and allowing gale to "redeem" himself by killing everyone during the final battle in act 2... the worst ending imaginable happens! ur whole party dies, the game immediately ends, mind flayers take over the city! everyone becomes infected or enslaved! the whole game ends miserably!! the narrative in the game tells you explicitly that, by gale following mystra's orders, it becomes the worst thing he could've possibly done not just for himself, but for humanity!! the story is explicitly telling us that gale's story is not strictly about redemption, but about freeing himself from the burden of mystra's manipulation. and freeing himself from her, freeing himself from this idea that he must prove his worthiness to her, is the best thing he can do for himself!! like literally this is the narration telling u that mystra isnt SHIT!!! and yet there are still sillies in this fandom trying to say otherwise. u guys are SILLY! play the game again! read this time! pls! im begging you!

me: I’m fine
me, 10 seconds later: the Greywaren mind meld was sooo stupid and the worst part of it is that device Could have been implemented without it feeling like a total cop out if it was say, characters having an actual argument/conflict in some type of dream space, alternate version of reality each others memories etc. if we were actually tracking them through all that and not just “they were wanted…” as the resolution … the actuality of it was just lazy.

its only been 2 weeks but i just dont feel like i can do this.
its really stressful. the workload is always high. having a break isn't really a thing. and with how bad my schedule is (that i could not do anything about) i have to wake up extremely early (5-5:30am) and i come home in the evening (also 5-5:30 but pm). and i just have to dedicate that time to homework and i know there's going to be lots of all-nighters
i have no time to eat. im tired all the time. focusing on work is difficult in general, but my lack of eating and sleep make it worse. and while i know the exercise is good for me, having to walk a mile each way to and from home and all my walking on campus makes me very tired and sore. (im so petty)
i know im being overdramatic because its only been 2 weeks. but it gets worse from here on out. im really stressed and anxious all the time. and ive already broken down a few times. i want to cry right now because im under so much stress, but people are awake so i cant.
its so petty. i want to give up now and i keep contemplating, i thought about going to the rooftop and. well. you know. i want to drop out now but that would upset my family a ton (also its only been 2 weeks!!!). but i dont really like my family's idea that if they went to college and got their degrees, so can i. they all went to college so thats what was encouraged of me to do too after i graduated high school. and this is just community college. if im barely hanging on in community college id be dead by now in a uc or cal state, either one im planning to transfer to once im done at community college...
i knew i wasnt cut out for college. i knew it since before applying. i keep telling myself this is only until december. and when i register for the spring term i can hopefully form a much better schedule so im not stressed out and loaded with work all the time and i can actually take care of myself. so im trying to keep moving forward. but its only now september. i have 13 more weeks. and if these first two weeks were enough to kick my ass then im fucked for the rest of the semester. and probably my entire time at college.

Did you do a maceghost post yet with like headcanons or your general vision of it? even if you did... Tell us (more) about maceghost 🤲
i have these two asks from an ask game! first + second. but i can fr talk more.. i gave a rough timeline of how i picture their relationship on a post but i cant find that rn :(c basically theyve just been together but not really together for a long time. like i hc ghost to be trans and mace was there when he first started going on t in his late 20s and before the robas stuff. imo theyre like extremely close basically married but not officially together and not always talking bc theyre just. Like that. ghost doesnt like commitment and mace doesnt push it PLUS he is like, really arrogant, and just sees himself as the best ghost can do. which. lbr... could anyone do better than mace? i dont think so.
i just love the ship to me its the ultimate ghost ship like i think mace is someone who can really, really get to the core of ghost and deeply understand him. mace is not like a perfect person he has flaws but hes very honest about them and because of that ghost's filter is so like Gone with him like he will just straight up say whats on his mind. but like even when he cant get a read on Himself and he acts out of pocket mace can (now) take a step back and like. help him work through it because he knows introspection is hard for ghost bc of ghosts deep anger issues. theyre just FUN theyre literally just the most comfortable couple despite having like really huge disagreements.
like ghost thrives in an enviroment where he can be a cunt and mace can provide that without it actually being like... An Issue of how he handles people bc mace can be a cunt back if need be. idk. i wouldnt call it healthy in the purest sense but its healthy For Ghost and mace enjoys it bc he likes rude bitches. and theyve known each other forEVER.
