Words of encouragement today from a witch
It’s okay if all you do is get out of bed, life is hard I know this from experience. Mental health is just as important as physical health, please take care. Drink some tea or coffee, watch a good movie or go for a walk if you can. I’m rooting for you from afar wherever you are from my heart to yours 🌱

To anyone who happens to follow me, please excuse the excessive Hunger Games posts and reblogs.
For some unfathomable reason I'm just now reading the series due to the new movie, and now I'm suffering from chronic brain rot.
But when do I not?

This one is for all the snz content creators. Idk if anyone actually needs to hear this, but this is something that I went through recently, so maybe someone else is struggling with it, too.
You are allowed to do things solely for yourself.
I went through a period of time recently where I stopped using chhinkni, because I felt guilty if I wasn't using it to make content. Like, how dare I use it for my own pleasure when people out there are expecting new content from me? And it took me a while before I realized that that mindset was bullshit, and that I didn't need to feel bad about doing something I enjoyed simply because I enjoy it.
Letting other people's expectations control your happiness will only serve to suck the joy out of the things you love.
I gave myself permission to do things for me alone, and it actually helped me be more motivated to make content because I was having more fun with it.
So don't feel guilty if you want to induce for yourself, or make art for yourself, or write for yourself, or do anything for yourself that you could do for content. Don't let other people control your happiness. Don't turn something you enjoy into an obligation. You are allowed to do the things you like, simply because you like them. That is reason enough.
You are reason enough.

Hiii everybody. 👋😁
Just wanted to pop in and see how you're all doing. Pls know that if u need a friend or a non biased shoulder to lean on I'm here for you. If you need encouragement or a friendly reminder to take your meds, I'm here for you.
I also take meds to help with my mental health and well-being, it is what it is. I do it consistently everyday and in the end it's what's best for me because I have a much better quality of life than I once did. I was like so many people, going through life undiagnosed, frustrated and feeling overwhelmed and confused not understanding what was wrong with me. It's ok that my brain is wired a bit differently, I deal with it responsibly and take accountability for my actions and mistakes. I'm only human after all its ok to make mistakes and we all to trip and fall along the way sometimes, its how we get back up from the fall that matters. One thing that comforts me is knowing bad days don't last forever, eventually the dark clouds pass and the sun returns and I feel my mind clear up and I can think straight again.
The thing is our over all attitude about life is what will lead to peace or to war with one's self and by extension others. Also our lack of self awareness and lack of discipline over ourselves is what makes us our own greatest enemy. We give in too easily to our emotions and desires, we hold onto false ideologies that in the end hurt us more than help us. Constantly stressing ourselves over things we can't control leads to constant tension in our mind and body which amplifies the symptoms of said mental illness and can lead to aggression or apathy. We must learn coping skills, to self sooth and calm ourselves when we feel like we may explode from over stimulation or we end up lashing out at the world and life becomes all the more difficult. As if we need more problems when our mental health causes enough of it's own.
Life has it's share of pain and suffering but it also have its beautiful moments. No one ever said growth was going to be easy but it is necessary to having a more balanced life that isn't constantly falling apart due to short sighted choices and chasing pleasure over self discipline and patience.

big, /big/ sigh. 
Hi, friends. This is not a post I ever thought I'd make, but since I've been dealing with some behind-the-scenes harassment and another author has posted a tangent of false statements about me, I feel compelled to at least set the record straight and tell you my side.
After @maraudersftw voluntarily stepped in to take over @jilyawards, she tapped me to help with redesigning the JA blog and making the graphics to accompany all the typical posts. Claudia retained sole access to the Awards Google account, was the only person actively running the blog/answering asks, and was the only one keeping up with processing nominations. Neither of us would be voting. I was also intending to decline certain nominations if others made them. All of this was communicated to the author in question.
The only goal here was to move forward with the Jily Awards in as healing and empathetic way possible for everyone. I gave my opinion regarding the decision to not have the dark!James trope in the Awards, yes—as did many others—but it was not my final call to make. Much, much consideration went into that decision, and I stand by it fully. (If anyone wants to discuss my thoughts on that further, I am more than happy to chat over DM.)
When the decision was finalized, I informed an author who has a work that would not be eligible, as the work was and currently remains tagged for "dark!Jily," "Death Eater Lily," and "evil Lily Evans." Obviously, this is a tough conversation to have. We both were affected by the reckoning over dark!Jily/DE James this past spring, and though I knew she would disagree with the decision, I expected to have a civil conversation and hoped to reach a point of understanding.
I discussed our rationale at length, as did Claudia. We explained repeatedly that this was not a "punishment." This is the Jily Awards equivalent of the prior conversation and agreement to tag dark fanfic as "dark!Jily" so as to remove it from the "Jily" tag, where many members of the community voiced valid concerns over being unable to avoid content they found triggering and deeply offensive, despite their best efforts to do so. All of this was communicated to the author in question.
Several hours later, the work in question was updated, along with a corresponding Tumblr post, stating that multiple dark!Jily fan fictions were eligible in the Awards and tagging the Jily Awards Tumblr account, bringing the advertisement to our attention. I confronted the author about this post and requested she take down the misrepresenting language. To date, she has not done so. I shared the conversation with Claudia, and great care went into drafting a post that would correct any misunderstanding without singling out the author (which would have been embarrassing and unnecessary). All of this was communicated to the author in question.
Not long after that, more public/internet harassment started, and I blocked the author in question. Yesterday, on Halloween (the last day of Jily Awards eligibility), the author in question posted the first chapter of a long-hyped, non-dark, Muggle AU story. Unable to reach me otherwise, the story opened with an Author's Note that was a message directed at me. A few hours later, the story was deleted. Had the story remained up, it would have obviously been eligible for the Awards, so why it was deleted remains unclear.
The subsequent behavior of the author in question led to the decision to halt the Awards.
Friends, I am the first one to advocate for DLDR. I dabbled in the DE!James trope, even if my James was really an undercover good guy all along. I believe that fiction does not equal reality, and that creators have every right to explore dark themes and tropes within fiction. I do not, and have never, judged, shamed, or ridiculed any author or reader for engaging with dark fic. I have said all of this before. But I ALSO believe in being a good community member. Community requires listening. Community requires compromise. When people come to you and say, This trope is actually deeply offensive and triggering to me and others, and here's why, ignoring that and continuing to blast that content into community/gen spaces where they can't avoid it (like the Awards) isn't just irresponsible, it's downright cruel.
It's okay to write content that's not for everyone. (I do.) It's okay to have gen fandom Tumblr events that celebrate a ship and exclude fringe content that is not representative of that ship as it's canonically known and sought. It's okay to have gen fandom Tumblr events that celebrate a ship and exclude fringe content that fandom members have expressly stated causes offense and hurt. That is not censorship—that's having a party and setting a menu that's considerate of known dietary restrictions. ***It's not personal. It's a simple respect of community boundaries.*** And maybe boundaries for triggering topics were not always brought up or addressed in prior Awards, but we all know they were brought up after last year's, and under Claudia's leadership and with my help and support, they damn well were going to be respected now.
All of this was communicated to the author in question.
The insinuation that I was trying to "remove the competition" or however it was phrased is so unhinged it's honestly laughable. This is about so, so much more than just getting a cute little Canva-designed card with your name on it. (That's the part that's simply meant to be fun.) It goes without saying, but had the Awards continued, I would have had no qualms about removing myself and my stories from consideration entirely. The engagement I get from readers enjoying stories with me is more than enough; any nomination nod or cute little Canva-designed card, while of course much appreciated, is the icing on top.
I understand that I'm the current target of a lot of vitriolic anger because I was the messenger. I've obviously taken measures to digitally protect myself, including turning off asks entirely. If you actually believe what the author in question said about me, I don't care to hear about it. If you don't like me, I don't care to hear about it. I'm here to write and vibe about Jily.
Maybe the fandom—fractured and traumatized as it is—wasn't ready for this. We wanted to try.

I just noticed that I now have 1,000 followers! I honestly didn't expect this many people to notice my story, but I am grateful in ways that words simply can't describe.
Thank you to everyone who has followed me and know that I will always strive to weave a story that you all enjoy reading and I enjoy writing.
