Making a new pinned post because it's been a while

Welcome to the hellsite, call me Iole (they/them)

While this is a blog to post my disorganized thoughts and opinions and fandoms, let it be known I also have a writing blog @avoidingcertaindoom for my miscellaneous projects and comics as well as my art blog @iolesgallery for specifically my own art postings. I am trying to be more active on both, especially in regards to my Trufulla project.

When that isn't it though I do tend to post a lot of original content with some Dungeons and Dragons or Vampire the Masquerade side tangents.

Fandoms I would consider myself active in (even if the activity isn't always clear" are Vampire Academy/Bloodlines, Dungeon Meshi, Spy x Family, any of the Riordanverse up to TOA, and Horror as a whole.

And mainly because it's BHM as I post this if you ever want to support a random black enby in the world I'll leave my Ko-Fi link below.

Thanks for reading 💜✌🏾

I feel represented by her with her thoughts of dissociation and manic/suicidal behavior.

Googled something about quick hydration and it suggested big jug of water, couple tbsp pickle juice, dash of lime juice.

Its surprisingly tasty????

[libraford]

Pleased to report that after a day of this i am not longer craving caper brine and my mouth is not dry as usual. There's some good suggestions in the notes too that I want to try.

-ancient roman posca: water, red or white wine vinegar, honey, salt, herbs (coriander, mint, thyme)

-switchel: water, ginger, vinegar, sweetener, lemon, salt

-ayran: yogurt, water, salt, mint

-Agua pepino: water, cucumbers, lime, sugar, optional mint.

[libraford]

I have been reminded of:

-shrub: vinegar, sida water, elderberry (or other berry), sugar.

[libraford]

I have now been informed of

-sekanjabin: honey, vinegar, mint, water.

[libraford]

"Wow, I wonder why this post was popular this week."

-sees the reports of the heatwave in Europe-

"... ah."

[phoenix-gal]

(oh yeah this is relevant now for like... half the world...

also been meaning to try making posca for years after researching for a Merlin fanfic eons ago)

[hjellacott]

I mean great and all that but I can never cease being shocked that people don't just enjoy water. To me there's nothing quite like my bottle of water fresh from the fridge with two ice cubes in.

[libraford]

... this was about a sodium deficiency. If you are in a situation where you are sweating, you are losing electrolytes and there comes a point where plain water does not do anything for hydration. It was absolutely not about taste.

[vaguedisapproval]

for those unaware of the situation, an indian engineer, activist, innovator, education reformer, and environment activist who refused to patent his inventions, so that people could use them freely, and built a free school for underpriviliged kids, went on a hunger strike to demand accountability from the indian government for the massive amount of exam paper leaks that have occurred during this current government's rule. his name is sonam wangchuk, and today, on the 20th day of his hunger strike, he was forcefully apprehended by the delhi police, and taken into custody. so far, we have no idea where they've taken him, and during his apprehending, a large group of men forced their way onto the dais he was lying down on(because he's no longer capable of even sitting up in his current state), and held up screens to prevent people from even seeing or recording what they were doing to him behind them.

as a result of the latest paper leak-which was a medical entrance exam-20+ kids committed suicide. this man saw their plight, and decided to use a form of peaceful protest, that indian freedom fighters used, to fight against colonial rule. it's something that has barely gotten any media coverage, as most news channels and newspapers are tightly controlled by the government. there were plans to conduct a peaceful walk to the parliament, and before that could proceed, the police-armed in tactical gear-kidnapped a frail old man, who can't even stand without assistance. this is plain and simple fascism, please talk about it on your various social media platforms to put some pressure on the indian government for the immediate release of this man.

update on this post: we now know he's being kept at safdarjung hospital, and has not been allowed to leave, or have access to his phone or the internet. they have essentially arrested him for practicing his right to peaceful protest. a colleague of mine who works at safdarjung, has not been able to meet him or check on his condition.

[isuggestforcemasc]

I will continue posting in favour of there being fewer people like that

Senshi facts

- he is 112 years old

- he’s considered feminine for a dwarf in dungeon meshi canon

- he spent most of his life living off of the ecology of the dungeon (monster food) after (insert ptsd inducing backstory) happened when he was just a youngin

- he doesn’t have kids and I genuinely think he’d be a bad parent because of how oblivious he can be at times, but he would try his hardest to keep them well fed

- he assumes that all halflings are children because they are small

- he doesn’t wash his beard and this makes it hard for magic to be cast on him

- he hates magic and sees it as a shortcut to getting things done the hard and right way

- he explains EVERYTHING he does when cooking so that those around him can learn from him

- he would make a great teacher of some kind of dungeon survival skills class

- he has a mithril cooking knife

- he turned a perfectly good mithril shield into a large wok he takes everywhere

- the fact that he is hot without his helmet is initially treated as a gag because of how silly he looks with it on

- he can be very careless outside of his obsession with cooking monsters (ignoring directions from his party members and not taking proper care of his supplies) (so real. adhd representation. not caring about anything but your hyperfocus. I understand king)

- one time he gave the birds and the bees talk to Chilchuck because he thought Chilchuck was a child (he’s literally just a young looking 29 year old halfling with three children) (eventually he realizes that Chilchuck as a halfling is essentially middle aged and they get closer bc he gets over his prejudices)(chilshi shoutout)

- he deeply believes in only taking what you need and giving back what you can. Don’t over harvest. Don’t destroy an ecosystem for your own gain. The ecology of the dungeon is important for everyone.

- again his hyperfixation is cooking monsters and he is in canon the best monster food chef in the world

- (MANGA SPOILERS) he tells a character who was (spoiler spoiler spoiler) and is left feeling like the scraps of food left behind on the plate that vegetable scraps can always be used to grow something new and should never be thrown away 🩵

[absolutedream-art]

A "What-if" scenario on if the abstracted characters could "De-Abstract". I personally like the idea of abstraction being more permanent as it gives it a sense of finality, but I can't help but admit that the idea of De-Abstraction is a comforting thought, lol. Of course, I believe it also wouldn't be without consequences.

The idea for abstraction scars having a sort of 'crystal-like' appearance came from the animiniz in the Glitch store. Not sure I'll get any of them, but I love how they look.

Some head canons I like for de-abstraction:

They are more sensitive to light or bright areas, and maybe prefer the dark like abstractions. Maybe after too much time in the light they become overwhelmed. Caine made them a 'quiet' room to help them settle.

Maybe Caine makes them special sunglasses to better deal with light.

When they're agitated, their scars flare up and spike.

Maybe they're even more susceptible to re-abstracting when isolated for too long.

They're almost chronically tired.
