I’m Basically Like 50% Books 50% Anxiety

This is just slowly filling up with book stuff and I couldn’t be happier.

Nesta Mor

Fucking Cassian while Eris thinks he’s going to marry them

[valkyrie-archeron]

they really should be friends. there’s literally no reason for Nesta and Mor to hate each other. They should be besties.

I think my therapist supports my nose piercing more than anyone else I’ve told about it

[coping-skill-toolkit]

During my first month with my therapist, I was given this worksheet to read and work on. She noticed that while I was talking with her, that my thoughts followed a lot of these. I wasn’t aware that my anxiety had brought me down paths of low self-worth and stinky thinking.  After a couple of weeks of talking with her, she gave me this worksheet to work on. 

While, at first, I thought these weren’t going to work out, I was very surprised to see just how easy they were to use . My homework at that time was to identify which sort of thinking I used on the regular and which ones would best challenge them for me. So, what do you think? Do any of the maladaptive thinking patterns sound like you? which ways would you like to untwist your thinking?

HEY guess who needs this? I do! And chances are some mutuals may like to see it as well.

The yawn is what kills me. “Oh. Yeah, i was gonna take a nap. So sleepy honkshoo.”

[followthebluebell]

This is a really good example of appeasement behavior in cats. 

The kitten wants to play, but stops because the older cat has their ears back.  Kitten backs down to show a loss of interest— at that point, you can see the older cat blink slowly.  This is one of the ways cats demonstrate trust and understanding.   The kitten turns away, to further cement a lack of interest in playtime at the moment. 

The kitten lies down slowly, occasionally looking to the older cat for more approval.  Finally, the little yawn at the end isn’t to go ‘i’m sleepy’, but rather as a calming signal.  Cats consider sleeping to be a communal activity.  By settling down and imitating the older cat, the younger cat is displaying ‘yes, I understand Now Is Not Playtime, we’re cool, right?’

I miss clubbing.

Just wanna be drunk, dancing in a crowd or strangers to loud music and funky lights

Wanna watch at least one of my friends have a toilet breakdown before drying their tears and buying them a jäger bomb

Pigeon steals poppies from the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Australian War Memorial, Canberra, Australia in order to build a nest beside a stained glass window.

@snitling EXACTLY

[tinysaurus-rex-deactivated20240]

This is two pigeons, pigeons nest in bonded pairs (notice the first one is checked and its mate on the nest is barred). Usually they don’t make nests nearly so big but I guess if you have the materials, go for it.

[theramseyloft]

The nest is so unusually big because the vast majority is a platform to keep the actual nest (just that tiny ring in the corner around the bird sitting in it) cushioned from the anti bird spikes.

This is a work of beautiful defiance.

Using the very thing installed to make just a moment’s rest impossible as structural supports for an immovably stable nursery.

[jurassicjenday]

The symbolism achieved by these pigeons is better than some writers can hope for and I love it!

From the nest on the bird repellent spikes to the fact that those spikes are along the stained glass windows of a church, a place associated with sanctuary and compassion. The fact that the nest is made of stolen poppies for remembrance day hits the hardest though. Of the 54 animals to be awarded the Dickin Medal for acts of gallantry during WW2, 32 of them were pigeons. These were messengers who flew through battlefields and across borders, many of whom were killed or severely injured by enemy forces including gunfire and trained falcons. Many of their achievements saved the lives of hundreds of soldiers, and yet now their descendants are faces with anti-bird spikes, shooting and poisoning in an attempt to rid the cities from the rats with wings. I love this picture because it feels like they’re taking back just a little bit of that credit owed to them.

“Excuse me ma’am but that is my emotional support gay catholic drag racing drunk depressed orphaned tattooed pit bull hand kink having 3D printer” -the Gangsey about Ronan, especially Gansey

[roitssomething]

I started with the Raven boys again and I read this part of the book where Blue talk with professor Malory and he couldn’t believe that Blue  was her real name 

[zainclaw]

oh also my favorite part of the book is how Gansey is like the king of their little squad but when shit’s about to go down in the cave Adam’s like “ok so Ronan’s gonna do his dream magic, I’m gonna do my sentient forest magic, Blue’s gonna do her awesome amplifying magic, and Gansey can… move some rocks?”

and like. Gansey just. nodded. and moved some rocks. I love him.

[gibbarts]

[remxnd]

Oh if that ain’t Adam and Ronan.

[shutyourmoustache]

Wow. JVN spoke his truth about being abused by an older boy at his church, filling his emotional void with junk food and then drugs (meth and coke) and sex, selling his body to make money cuz he was too embarrassed to ask his mom for help, flunking out of college, relapsing after rehab twice, and finding out at 25 that he was HIV positive. His journey’s been harrowing and yet he seems like such a radiant and positive person. He’s even braver than any of us realized.

YOU’RE NEVER TOO BROKEN TO BE FIXED.

Important details about the Marvel-Sony deal that nobody seems to be mentioning:

Sony does not make ANY money from the movies with Spider-Man in them that are not branded Spider-Man movies, they got no money from Civil War, Infinity War or Endgame, likewise, Marvel didn’t get much from Homecoming and Far From Home

Sony pays for 100% of the Spider-Man movies, they pay to make the movies, while Marvel takes a creative lead and makes most/all of the choices on what happens in the movies

So, when people say ‘Marvel made those movies and Sony just slapped their name on them’ that is not true, Marvel did not pay a penny to make those movies, Sony’s the one that paid the bills to make those movies, it’s just that people from Marvel were involved in making the movie, so Marvel, as a company, got to slap their name on the movie

The deal was only ever for five movies (so, Civil War, Homecoming, Infinity War, Endgame and Far From Home), so the deal was up, and then Marvel came in with idiotic demands and that’s what caused the new deal to dissolve

We also don’t know 100% if this means no Spider-Man in the MCU, the only thing we know is that, as of right now, Marvel/Kevin Feige will not be taking a creative lead in Spider-Man movies, that does not mean Spider-Man is banned from the MCU, maybe it does, but we have no idea

Also, they’re probably still negotiating, so Sony might end up taking a deal, especially since idiots everywhere are berating them for not letting Disney be greedy (which is what Disney wants)

Also, lots of people are saying that Marvel helped Sony make their highest-grossing movie ever, which, while true, only surpassed Sony’s last highest-grossing movie by $2 million (and, since both those movies went above $1 billion, that means it’s only roughly 0.2% higher), so them then asking for 50% of future Spider-Man movies is asking quite a lot, since that would mean roughly a half billion dollar loss on Sony’s part per movie, and they’re supposed to be okay with that because Marvel helped them make $2 million more on this one movie than they’ve made before? None of the Spider-Man movies that Sony has ever made pulled in less than half of what Far From Home made

So, basically, what happened is this: Marvel, coming off the heels of making the number one highest-grossing movie in cinematic history (which Sony got no money from even though their characters were in the movie), and also having 5 of the top 6 highest-grossing movies of 2019 (the 1 they don’t have being Spider-Man: Far From Home), came to Sony and said ‘fuck you buddy we want 50% of the profits from your movies because we don’t have enough money,’ Sony said ‘how about we stick to our original deal?’ and then Marvel decided they wouldn’t help Sony make Spider-Man movies anymore, probably because they figure that it’ll lead to them being able to squeeze more money out of Sony. How the fuck is Sony the bad guy here in anybody’s eyes?

DISNEY IS BEING GREEDY STOP ENABLING THEM.

[knox-knocks]

an au where the foxes didn’t find out about andreil in baltimore and they’re totally oblivious to it despite andrew and neil being anything but subtle

they don’t figure it out until neil is chilling with matt in the girls’ room. dan ordered takeout and allison put on some raunchy 90’s romcom that no one’s really paying attention to

matt turns to neil and asks “so how’s andrew?” it’s been a year and a half, after all, and the monsters have calmed down somewhat following the aftermath of last year, so surely andrew still can’t be messing with neil?

neil, not realizing matt was asking if andrew was still bothering him and hadn’t clocked that literally no one has picked up on the fact that andrew and neil don’t really hate each other let alone have been in a relationship for the past year replies, “i think i’m in love with him.”

matt just fucking chokes on his orange chicken

[knox-knocks]

dan, pounding on matt’s back: neil you were at each other’s throats in practice today?? you called andrew and asshole and andrew threatened to leave your ass on the side of the road??

neil, frowning: we were flirting

matt, wheezing, finally able to breathe: he shoved you up against the lockers the other day and had his hand around your throat!!

neil, face turning red: you saw that

[knox-knocks]

matt, rallying in order to be a good friend: h-how long have you two been....dating?

neil: almost two years

matt, trying not to pass out: please say sike
