#i will never shut up about how poignantly fascinating alex’s relationship with the way he presents himself to the world is #and i feel like it’s so well highlighted with these two photos #his ability to put his sunglasses on and look cool and unreachable and like he’s just stepped off the pages of a magazine #and then the softer and quieter vulnerability that’s behind that facade #i feel like getting that glimpse is a potent reminder of how much he needs that facade to protect himself #how it helps keep safe the more sensitive sides of him that are the reason he’s wound up in the public eye in the first place #aghhhh #i could honestly write a whole essay about this stuff because i just find him so fascinating #but i won’t because no one needs to watch me descending into yet another endless ramble in my own tags #it’s becoming a habit lately #i guess that’s what being stuck in bed ill for weeks on end will do for you #far too much time for my brain to think #alex turner #alex photos #arctic monkeys #lulu posts

thinking about luke (again) and lately my mind keeps getting dragged back to the moment in a new hope when he comes back to find the homestead burned and owen and beru gone- and how in that moment there’s not this great exclamation of grief from luke, but just a single look of devastation on his face and that always sends me down a spiral about grief because yeah- grief can be like that, especially giant, all-consuming, world-altering grief. no screaming at the sky. no tears. just silence. shock. and after that luke gets up and goes on to save the galaxy. but what really stops me- what i really keep coming back to- is just thinking about afterwards, after the second death star gets destroyed- how there must have been a moment where he just went ‘oh’ because where was he to go then? because that’s one of the things i think is so easy to overlook, because unlike leia with alderaan and how overt and obvious it is she can never go home, with luke and tatooine its quieter, more like one of those awful revelations that unfurl in your belly- because he could go back, but what to? and i think it’s from such an awful moment that we get this beautiful nature from within luke of wanting to build a home for others with his school and there is something about that, that idea of him really getting to turn the worst moment and feeling in his life into a mission to help others, that once again just endears me to him so through how absolutely human he is and i will never stop talking about it

#star wars #luke skywalker #mj.chatter #where my luke besties at? #this late-posting is going to become a habit now lol #i don’t expect this one to pop off as much as the others cause it’s not dinluke but i am a luke girlie first and foremost #also hi and hello to all my new followers who are here from my last two dinluke(ish) posts #ill maybe make an blog introduction post later idk :)

hi hi !! can i request a karina imagine/drabble with a short girlfriend who she loves to tease a lot, with the quotes:

“you're really adorable, you know?”

“you're so obsessed with me, love”

home . karina x fem!reader (no specific pronouns) about . 620 words, fluff warnings . reader is shorter than karina!

it's been a whole three weeks since you've seen karina, and you're starting to go nuts without her.

being in the middle of comeback season means you see karina lesser than often. she comes home at ungodly times, and you're lucky if you can even feel her weight dip into the mattress as she passes out. but even if you wanted to make her schedule a little bit easier by giving her a nice massage or helping her wake up in the morning, she's gone before you can even open your eyes.

it's not her fault, and you know that. your texts are littered with apologies, ones she's probably sent in breaks of long hour practices and recordings, and the mere thought that she cares enough to send a message of her missing you in her hectic schedule is enough to warm your heart. she doesn't know that in reality, those words are enough for you.

it's why you're so hellbent on making a nice, home-cooked meal for her when she comes back from practice today. she's being let off early, and you'll finally be able to spend time together, time that's been missed these past few days. she deserves it more than anyone.

the only problem with this is, to put it simply, you're a little too short to reach the ingredients you need. the items you use daily are scattered between the lower shelves where you can obtain them easily, but karina is the one that likes to experiment with less common ingredients on the nights you both stay at home together. she's always teasing you for not being able to reach things you need, but it's okay since she's usually there to get them for you.

unfortunately, that isn't the case today, and the only thing you can do is stack two stools upon each other in order to grab the romano cheese at the top of the drawer. fettuccine alfredo has never been this physically challenging, but you think it'll be worth it when karina lights up at the taste.

"aww, my baby is so tiny. you're really adorable, you know?"

the voice startles you, and suddenly you feel the two stools toppling under you as you fall off the edge. luckily, it's not too high of a distance and the kitchen mat is plush enough to cushion your fall, but the impact is still painful enough to make you groan.

"oh my god, i'm so sorry are you okay?" you hear as you're lifted up, familiar hands feeling your waist to see if you've bruised yourself heavily.

"karina? why are you home early?"

you have to tilt your head up to see her concerned eyes, and even in her worried state, she manages to look beautiful.

"we finished recording early and i wanted to surprise you. but enough about me, are you hurt? do you need an ice pack? why were you even on two stools?"

"i'm fine, just a little sore. and i was trying to get the romano cheese at the top of the drawer since you like fettuccine alfredo."

the concerned look on her face shifts into one of amusement.

"you're so obsessed with me, love."

"hey!" you protest, hitting her shoulder, "i just wanted to be nice and make you dinner since you've been working hard."

"and you could've made any meal. but my little midget girlfriend decided to make my favorite pasta as a reward, huh?"

she tucks you into a hug, not even letting you respond as you're squished against her chest. her fingers find the tips of your hair to play with, and you breathe in the familiar scent of her warmth.

and finally, you feel at home.

Many things are touching about the end of TLG, but one that always makes me heart smile and break at the same time is Butler calling Artemis “Arty” when the boy gets resurrected.

Butler’s never done that before! It was always Professional Town between them, as best they could given their insane codependency. But then Artemis full on dies. Not just disappears, he dies. There’s a corpse. And Butler refuses to believe that, but he still is faced with the implications of it. He can’t guard Artemis, or plan for his return. He’s essentially jobless for the first time in nearly two decades and battling grief and his own failure and trying to manage things in the new world after it all goes to hell. And then Artemis comes back! And Butler, for the first time after all the adventures, after all the years of being a father-figure and friend to this boy - hell, after years of being called “old friend” by this boy - acts as a friend to Artemis. He calls him Arty, a pet name, a name of familiarity, a name for only the closest of friends and family to use.

It makes my brain buzz like happy bees are having a fun little dance party.

#Artemis fowl #domovoi butler #it just makes me inarticulately happy and soft and breaks my heart because it took SO LONG #and so much heartbreak for them to get to that point! #Are Artemis and Butler on a first-name basis now? #Like not fully obvs and Butler has for years been using Artemis’s name #But like…does Artemis get to call Butler ‘Dom’? Does Butler get to refer to Artemis as ‘Arty’? #Not all the time they’d both default to habit and comfort #But if Butler’s heart isn’t the same after whatever magic bolt hit him and he wanted to retire for a while he’d probably lighten up a bit #I’m regards to the name thing #And Artemis is theoretically becoming a more normal relaxed teenager so does he allow for a relaxation of formality? #Does he call his parents Mom and Dad now? Does he accept Arty as the term of endearment it is from those who use it? #It’s late and I’m sugar high and I just finished the book so my head is all caught up in this #Sorry not sorry I’m just insane about this series and these characters

obkk prompt #2

AU: post-canon, alive!Obito

Obito joins a club located near or on the way to the Hokage’s office as an excuse to walk together with Kakashi every morning.

#at first it's to break Kk's habit of going to the memorial stone #but then he starts to like the club activities so he still goes years later and become the club president #idk what club. maybe gardening or anythings that pique his interest the first time #this is based on the headfanon that Kk goes to the memorial stone everyday and why he's always late #it's also nice to walk together with your bf hand in hand （＾∀＾●）ﾉｼ #he's more active at the start when he's still not allowed to go outside Konoha. for missions or pleasure #also probab set after his house arrest is lifted (yes i like those fics where he lives with Kk when he's still a prisoner) #the club he joined probab has a lot of housewives and find that he can relate to them #obkk #kkob #kakaobi #obikaka #obito uchiha #kakashi hatake #naruto #mai prompts #edit: #originally alive!Ob au but realise this also fits good!Ob where kannabi still happened but he goes back home instead of following Madr #and he's still too injured or held back from taking missions that's too far or else he would joined Kk's team

#would appreciate prayer this week #it's the first completely routine week of the year #and as i look at the week i have a sense that some of my habits i have been in are not serving me well but i don't know exactly which #i'd like to do my best to identify them before they become unnoticeable parts of daily life again #first step: declared my bedroom a laptop free zone #i'm always like “but what if i want to write in the evenings” and a) yeah mostly that's not writing happening b) if i do. i will just have #to do it on paper. or in the lounge. having my computer in my room opens me up to so much time wasting and late nights

[taikanyohou]

god i have neverrrr everrrr everrrr been a morning workout kinda person i usually always workout after work around 5pm-ish, but since its october now and the days will start to get shorter and SAD will no doubt set in this year i wanna try switching things up for the first time and see what it does for my mood and body and brain if i workout in the mornings before work at 6am before or after i pray fajr salah instead.

#SAD wasnt /as bad/ last year but i wanna try some things out ... lifestyle changes ... shifting a few things around in my day to day routine #just to see if it does anything. bc after i workout i am always always in such a good mood so idk. i wanna see if thatd work in the mornings #before work. bc after work i used to think id be too tired to workout but i never was. its always a smash. so yeah. #and people are always like ohhh mornings are the best time to workout and whilst i dont believe that theres ever really 'a good time #to workout' (bc ANY time is a good time to! in ramadhan sometimes whilst i wait for suhoor i workout at 2am!) #i just wanna see what it does for me if i DO workout at 6am-ish. it'll be HARD at first bc i'll feel sluggish. #but idk i think i'm quite self-motivated and self-disciplined so it shouldnt take too long for it to become a habit. hopefully. iA. #and generally i am a morning person i LOVE mornings (but never tried working out during them) so yeah. i get up 6am everyday anyway. #and pray my fajr and then have my coffee and just sit with myself for an hour before i get ready to go work. so yeah. i dont meditate. #but fajr for me is my silent quiet introspection time. its so nice and peaceful to just sit and pray and think and practice gratitude. #so yeah i wanna mix working out in with it now too. #ANYWAY. all this to say that its never too late to change things up in life! freshen your routine up! #faiza talks

#I've spent the past week organizing in the play's wake - sorting and laundering huge numbers of costumes #some to return to those they belong to and some to come home to my costume storage room which had become chaotic over the last few #months #so a complete spring cleaning for the storage room became part of my task list too. Now the play's been over for a week #and the emails are starting to come in from admin about next year. As some of you know I did a lot of discernment this semester #about what next year should look like and I have decided a mix of continuity is best. I won't be working for my 'main' schoolboard anymore #but I will continue to teach and direct for the one program in the city (the one I did the play for) and possibly with a new home school #enrichment program that may go ahead this year if there are sufficient numbers. Otherwise I am going to spend a semester #tutoring and running workshops f I can get it off the ground. Then we'll see. #Anyway - admin wants me to get new syllabi in to them within a month's time so my thoughts are all in that direction! #I get to teach 19th/20th century Canadian history to the middle schoolers and Late Antique/Medieval Church History to the high schoolers! #Also direct another play and do a humanities course centred around an epic in the spring (the last couple of years we've done Iliad and #Odyssey - they want Aeneid this year but I am trying to talk them into another option. The Aeneid is valuable but I am not sure it's the #time or place with this group of students. The result of all this is that I am spending far too much time doing Internet research for ideas #and then taking breaks on tumblr - which isn't good for my eyes or mental health. What with the play and end of term #I fear I've been out of the reading habit. I'm still hyperfixating on the Book of Romans so there's that at least #but I lost the novel I was in the middle of and am not feeling so motivating with out books. It's a proper reading slump! I need a kickstar #of sorts. Feel free to yell at me that I should pick up a book!

[staring thoughtfully at the wall] its all about modes of being. its all about acting in the style of different filters. NOT to be confused with concealing a true self everyone is always confusing it for that . anyway sometimes the filter and manner of expression overtakes the content or is a mismatch for the scenario. or sometimes one can seem hypocritical but its actually a matter of just applying a different filter to two reactions. or

#textie #nodding thoughtfully and going on like this until you leave me to my devices and walk away #ive been extra extra more than usual explanatory lately i think. sonetimes it gets important to me for whatever reason and then it becomes #habit for a little while? <-well there i go again.

Update: This blog is still alive!

Hello everyone, it's been a while I know I'm tired of these update posts, but I'd rather post and update instead of staying completely silent. It's been a hectic 3 months. I've had lots of shifts to work, and have just had a few more things going on in my life than I usually have which was quite the sudden change of pace that I was not used to, which leads to my absence over the past little while.

I don't usually let radio silence go on for this long, but now that things have lightened up a bit, I can have more free time to be back here. I'll probably be changing my activity to make it work better with my schedule from now on.

That being said, I just have a bit of shopping to do today, after that's done I'm gonna be back for writing. (Should be back in 1 to 4 hours bc rush hour sucks with traffic >_>)

All my threads I had active I'm still willing to continue (Especially if we've plotted a lot of it ahead) If any thread that was active needs to be dropped please let me know so I can cross it out of my personal thread tracker. So sorry for my disappearance, but if you've been following me for a long time, you know I always come back when the time is right.

Anyway Just wanted to say hey everyone, I still exist, and plan on continuing to exist here.

#tʜᴇbʟᴜᴇʙᴇʀʀɪᴇsaʀᴇmɪssɪɴɢ ( ooc ) #Life has had a habit of becoming at random lately #And it always throws me off bc I think I have my routines worked out #And then more happens #Regardless: your local paranormal blueberry fool will be back today #As I've missed him very much #As well as the ships and everything else in between #Sorry for my disappearance friends #I hope your all doing alright

#no matter how hard i try i will never be able to please everyone #and i have been really overextending myself lately in so many ways and i feel utterly mentally spent #but to do all that and to have someone say to my face that they're hurt because they feel forgotten by me #i just feel broken #i don't know what else i can do #it's true - i haven't given them enough time but my god i've tried. i try so hard but i constantly feel like i'm running up an icy hill #i just keep slipping and slipping and slipping #and now i'm sat on my floor dipping back into a bad habit. it feels like the only thing i have an ounce of control over though haha #i increasingly feel like becoming a complete hermit off the grid because being known to others is so agonising. everything leads to hurt #i can't even cry. i'm bone dry. haha #i don't really know what to do. i've spent my whole life a clown trying to be a light for others but my bulb has since blown #it feels a bit like there is nothing left for me in a way? i'm a hollowed out tree that was struck by lightning long ago #and i have been left for people to marvel at #sea rambles

[againstpollutions]

would heavily encourage fellow adhd friends to weaponize impulsivity against depression. like "oh I really want to start [task] but I don't have any motivation/energy"? I've been experimenting with letting my impulse control slip. "I don't have any motiva—oh I already started. well now I guess I am doing it." be impulsive, don't wait for the motivation. the motivation is that you're already cleaning your room because you didn't give yourself time to stop and consider whether you have the energy for it

#obviously does not always work but when it comes to completing tasks so much of my problem is with just startinh #so this has been my solution lately and its been working pretty well #marenposting #best part about this one is that it gets easier! you get into the habit of doing productive things impulsively #and it relieves a lot of stress + you realize how not that big of a deal the Dreaded Task is once it becomes Random Task

I know everyone (rightfully!) loved the jabitha flashforward montage, but my favorite scene was honestly them after they finished watching Titanic bc it was so *them* specifically and showcased both their love and compatibility really well

#Riverdale #Riverdale season 6 #Riverdale spoilers #jabitha #Jughead really said 'I love her so much that I will spend three of our few remaining hours watching a movie I have no interest' #'I will do this because she wants me to and because it will make her happy and that's what really matters' #there's a simple but special kind of love in watching a movie you really don't want to watch #but we really need to train the bad film bro habits out of Jughead before it's too late #he's like 26 we're already pushing it and if we don't get it by the time he's 30 it will become permanent #and that's just an insufferable kind of person even for Jughead #my thoughts on Riverdale let me show you them

[bsaka7]

occasionally (well. At fairly regular intervals I just don't like to say it because it embarrasses me) i devour a number of articles by authors about writing and how they write and then i think about it a lot. i am so tempted by good writing that it scares me.

#I always think that. Oh I'm not really a reader because I'm not like a person with a reading schedule. I don't read 30min a night #But last year I read over 120 books!!! This year I'm at like 30!!? #Anyway I just read franzen's 1996 harpers article #That's like about readers and writers and the decline of the importance of books (as are so many of these lol) #It was funny to read his take on lonely children becoming readers and then becoming writers. #Anyway. I guess the point of this all is. Even with writing fic I'd like to be a more intentional writer than I am #And I am sure it is a matter of some sort of habit and practice #I think. I just love to read so much. And I enjoy writing (especially academically). That if I think too hard about it #The depth of my own wants - for what I wish I could do and am afraid to even try - leaves me in retreat #Ok there's some fancy words for ya #Good article tho. #Also i think the reason u are getting so many text posts lately is cuz I'm like well I only got this much wifi might as well use it #To share my thoughts #Cuz tf else am I doing the other 16hrs a day

It’s orvuto anon again, I stalled on your pinned post again — experimental neuroscience?? :eyes:

Yesss. I'm actually an undergrad neuroscience major... Like writing and art and stuff is just for fun, I wanna be a research neuroscientist one day lol.

#That's why I practically haven't posted the past few weeks cuz I'm back in school #I'm also in a lot of east asian history classes because I'm minoring in east asian language and lit for fun #and I've been running into this barrier recently where I feel like its hard to explain to people the overlap that exists between hard #science and the needs of the individuals that science is supposed to help you know #like for me the reason being a research neuroscientist is so appealing is because if you're going to pick a job where you mostly do busy #work all day then being in a research field just means you know that whatever pointless thing you're doing or failed experiment you perform #everything you do is a piece of data that's going to contribute to this greater process that really has tangible eeffects in helping real #people who suffer from neurological disease. which I think is comforting in a world where doing a little never feels like enough #What I've been thinking about lately though is that I have an inherent belief in that system because I really believe in the ability of #people to do good in it because I'm coming from the same frame of rationalist mindset that a lot of research is based in but that in #clinical applications there are a lot of inherent biases that prevent people from knowing what illnesses they have and how to receive #treatment for them... because in my east asian history classes we've been talking about different belief systems and ways of thought #that sometimes have to do with medicine or psychology. and I always think that it's interesting to analyze practices that are mysticized in #modernity through that lense. but it's become apparent to me that it's hard to express that interest as genuine to religious people without #them feeling as though I'm dismissing their beliefs rather than trying to analyze how they interact with the physical reality that I know. #and it made me realize that the dismissiveness of western science towards religion combined with ableism in society makes it hard for peop #le who have the symptoms of things like psychosis or mood disorders that might have an associated role in a religion to feel like #psychiatric diagnosis or treatment isn't a complete insult to who they are as a person and I think that's the fault of a lack of compassion #and respect for others in clinical practice... its just like a social norm that i really wish would change. because i don't think physical #reality has to be dismissive of spiritual beliefs when acknowledged but because of some of the habits of western scientists and #certain subsects of christianity people don't think about it enough to have that conversation sometimes... #that's just what i've been thinking about lately lol. #personal #ask #anonymous
