(sorry it's so light!) This was my first ever "study" of glados, when i first got into portal and started figuring out how to draw her 2.5 months ago

#portal #glados #art #looking at her from one angle and then to the other made 0 sense to me. feels like it completely changes #depending on what side you look at her from #i have a much better understanding now of how it all fits together but ough #uphill battle

Choose your battles wisely.

A saying I hated for so long until I truly understood the meaning of it.

Making a decision to cut back severely on the food available. See the second last paragraph of the last post. It's becoming a nuisance since I can't be there to handle the starlings properly. Or rather, it's not practical under my current conditions. Either way, they are escalating their group aggression and I don't approve.

Waiting for the next staycation! Now that's pretty practical~

.

Rant in the tags! Whoot!

#wingsabovethebridge #bird musings #a bit of a rant #bird watching and feeding truly benefits those who can stay at home for long hours #it seems like most hobbies nowadays you can't enjoy fully due to corporate America #many grievances here but let me not get political again #I say this on behalf of many birders- squirrels and starlings fucking suck #uphill battle #I will continue to discourage pests and not give up the good fight

Struggles

I recall a history professor of mine in Yeshiva University sharing that he would give an A to the entire class if not a single “war” was fought during the entire two semester long course, War in Western Civilization.” Of course, as he said, the odds were in his favor as there were very few years in recorded history (he claimed 11 at the time) that did not have some kind of war happening somewhere…

obsessed, quite frankly, with how katniss resents love, resents how deeply she loves. she was completely traumatized by her mom’s emotional withdrawal after the death of her father, and made the decision pretty much thereafter to never love someone else that way. and the fact that she goes through the trilogy absolutely refusing to call what she feels for peeta love, even when it absolutely, 1000% is, because she refuses to acknowledge that vulnerability within herself… oh it’s so good. it’s so good. the fact that recognizing love within herself is equivalent to shoving a knife in her eye is so good. i love this character

#i’m probably still spiraling over the love comparative quote thing i reblogged yesterday #but wow #i adore when love is an uphill battle when it’s a violent thing #the hunger games #katniss #everlark

Tonight, I'm battling some insecurities. My mind is telling me that I'm not worth the makeup I put on while starting to get ready for work, but also that it's the only way I can be "beautiful." My mind is telling me that, even with the makeup, people will still see my psoriasis, that it still makes me ugly. It tells me that I'm not worthy of the amazing friends that I have by my side.

We each deal with insecurities - it's how we deal with and face those insecurities that can make or break us.
