sleeping sun

ever since i gave up hope i've been feeling so much better

Hey, man, c'mere. Listen. Get in real close, this is important.

You're gonna make stuff again. You're gonna make stuff you're proud of. You're gonna make stuff you're excited to share. You're going to feel that overwhelming drive to create, not just the frantic I want to want to you're stuck in now. You're going to have awesome ideas, and you're going to make them into reality. You're going to create again. You're still an artist. You're still a writer. You're still home to the same passion you had before. You'll find it again. It's not gone. It's just resting. Let it rest. You're going to make stuff again. I promise.

So my little sister had never seen Boba Fett written down and she thought it was spelt Bo Buffet or sth like that and i can't shake this out of my head

If you follow Selmers to the poetry society meeting in Night In The Woods, this is her poem. I loved it and the themes of the game, and wanted to use it as practice to see if i can control the way readers ‘hear’ the words through images.

I'll be doing a little rant under the read more tag but it's mostly so i can scream into a void with ears and maybe reread it later

I know the situation is dire for many. Christ, I know so so so many people have it way worse than us.

But i see no light at the end of the tunnel, and each piece of news i get only gets me deeper within...

I haven't almost been out in more than a year... excluding some visits to the doctor and some obligatory face to face meetings I've been keeping to myself and close family. Which is a mess. I've been doing so to protect my father and his mother (who has been my sister's and I -and late mother- abuser for more than 25 years). I can't take it anymore. I can't live in close quarters with not one but two mentally unstable people who work against the collective sanity and health. I'm working from home and also playing the housewife part 24/7 (or almost)

What pains me more is that this fucking thing is keeping me from my partner -since they are even more locked home than I am- and since their health is worse than mine and not getting ANY medical attention I might as well never see them again. I haven't had a single romantic experience with them in the flesh. I'm almost in physical pain from the lack of any actual human contact in my life.

To make it even better everyone I care about the most is suffering, grieving or/and having and alltogether terrible terrible time

I miss my mother so much, but i'm, also thankful she didn't get to see this

Everything that makes me Me is telling me things have to get better, that everything'sg going to work out sooner or later.

But I know it's not. We are doomed. And life's going to be like this from now on....

Only now I don't even want to die anymore

incredibly, the architect behind both the building that melts cars in london and the building that burns people in las vegas foresaw this exact problem happening for BOTH buildings, did not do anything to prevent it, and describes the effect as "phenomenal". King

My roomba is scared of thunderstorms

I was sitting at my desk just a few minutes ago, drawing, and a really loud crack of thunder went off–no power surges or anything, just thunder–and my roomba fled from its dock and started spinning in circles

I currently now have an active roomba sitting quietly on my lap

Humans will pack bond with anything.

I had a teenage girl come into my tea shop with her mother the other night. She purposely grabbed a teamaker in the most crunched-up looking box on the shelf (got banged around in shipment) and carried it protectively over to the counter. “If something’s in a damaged box I have to get it because I’m afraid no one else will love it,” she laughed nervously.

Not only will humans pack bond with anything, the empathy level of adolescent girls in particular likely has puppy-saving, world hunger-solving, war-ending powers.

I once saw a really bumpy lime at the grocery store, just a real ugly fruit. Later that night my boyfriend & I were driving home from rehearsal at like 11:30pm & passed the grocery store & I stared crying & he said “is it that lime? Do you want to go back and get it?” And I nodded and pulled the car around and bought the lime.

“Listening to the signs”

[mockiatoh]

You can’t deserve a person’s love. You’ll drive yourself crazy thinking like that. They either love you, or they don’t. That doesn’t mean you weren’t good enough for them to love you, because love isn’t something you earn by being good enough. It isn’t something that can be quantified or doled out. Don’t blame yourself for not being loved how you need to, just teach yourself how to look for love where love lives.

[mockiatoh]

This isn’t just about romantic love, or even skewed towards romantic love, although it does apply there too. One of the hardest things I’ve ever had to accept is that my mother simply wasn’t someone who was capable of loving me, and there is no version of me that I could have ever been that would have earned that love. But with acceptance came healing. I was able to love myself more instead of resenting myself for not being more than any one person could be.

[mockiatoh]

Are you listening? Even love for yourself isn’t earned. It is a kindness you give yourself.

stop telling people who have abusive parents to “just leave” after they turn 18!!!!!!! it’s not that fucking simple!!!!!!!!!

i’ve been an adult for two years now and i STILL live in this hell hole. you know why? CONTROL. you can’t just walk out of the house and never look back like they do on tv. it doesn’t work that way. you take documents with you (that, if your parents are anything like mine, are locked up tight in a safe), you have to have enough money and a stable job and a place to go (which most victims are unable to get jobs due to mental/physical health or parent control), you have to move all your things out of their name (phone, car, etc). the list goes on. don’t you dare tell an adult victim that they’re just “not helping themselves”. i’m tired of hearing it.

adult victims of abusive parents: your abuse is still valid and i promise you there are those of us who understand and care.

(and before you try and pull the “here’s some suggestions” shit, my doctor has already met with a social worker with me. i’m stuck here for the time being. thanks for your concern but fuck off.)

[pearltiare]

one of my biggest flexes is that i’m on a continuous healing journey and nobody can take that away from me
