When you mods yourself up a neat lil Gith, but forgot you have a lot of those "additional bosses" sort of mods. And start honor :)

(it's pretty much Redo of one of my characters Niil, i wanted to get the hair more like it's supposed to be in my head. Still not there but closer)

That comment is spot on AND sciatica stretches are legit. The best treatment for sciatica is get stretchy.

[wethekeegsta]

For anyone who doesn’t know, Sciatica is pain due to compression of the sciatic nerve, which runs from your buttocks down the back of your leg. The reason this stretch is helpful is because the sciatic nerve, after leaving your spinal cord, immediately runs just underneath - and may get compressed by - the Piriformis muscle deep in your buttcheek, which helps you externally rotate your hip. (If the muscle is super tight, your toes on that side might actually point further out when you lie down compared to the toes on your other foot, jsyk).

If the above stretch ain’t compatible with you for reasons like having bitch ass knees, here are some alternative and amazing stretches for the muscle in order of easiest to hardest (but imo least to most helpful) to perform:

However, just keep in mind that none of these stretches will help you if you have a herniated disc, which compresses the nerve roots that protrude from the spine itself! For that you’ll for sure need some different medical intervention.

Have fun!

Y'all for real please do these. Even if you're certain your posture doesn't suck. One day you will wake up with impinged shoulder pain like I did and let me tell you it fucking HURTS. Do these exercises even just once a week and it will make such a difference. Especially my fellow creatives out there, stop shrimping over your work and go do these right now. RIGHT NOW.

Also, if you’re even a little concerned about getting a hump or having trouble standing fully upright in your old age, this is how you prevent that. If you want to be up and about when you’re old you have to start when you’re younger. And keep in mind there is no bad time to start and it’s never too late. Starting today is way better than never starting at all.

[solarmane]

new fanfic writer who has marked their work completed ao3 only to leave a note at the end saying: thanks for all the support guys if you want to read the rest of the fic subscribe to my patreon :)

me, an elder fandom veteran, suddenly having anne rice flashbacks:

no.

NO.

starting to rock back and fourth.

you do not understand.

you were born into an age of peace. i was there Gandalf. i was there three thousand years ago. i remember the cease and desists. i remember authors hunting fanfic writers for sport. i remember when every fic opened with a disclaimer because we genuinely thought it might protect us.

we do not charge money for the copyrighted gay wizard stories.

do not tempt fate youngling.

step away from the paywall.

that is how you summon the ancient evils.

that is how you wake the lawyers.

I raise you:

[captain-wereduck]

Naruto fandom never ceases to crack me up.

People are in a fandom where everyone is an indoctrinated child soldier serving and murdering under military dictatorship canonically.

People somehow get offended that a villain plants themselves as a military dictator and is recruiting child soldiers to murder people.

Buh wah?

[luna-azzurra]

Real thing that changed how i write: I started asking "what does this character think is wrong with them" and separately "what is actually wrong with them." Those two things are almost never the same. She thinks she's too much. She's actually terrified of being too little. He thinks he's bad at commitment. He's actually just never met someone he trusted enough. The gap between their diagnosis of themselves and the real thing, that's your character arc right there. you don't have to explain it. just write both.

[comicsclex]

A lot of people can't wrap their heads around why Clark and Lex would ever care about each other.

It was interesting seeing the confrontation in Action Comics #1050 get a lot of attention and speculation from the wider fandom and then interest fall off when it became clear Williamson was taking it in a direction people didn't expect. And that's just what you find. The wider fandom is very quiet on the complexity of this relationship.

I love how much of their relationship revolves around both feeling lonely and apart from humanity in their respective ways. I think when you think of it like that it's a lot easier to grasp why Clark feels this connection to Lex.

And vise-versa. A lot of the time Lex's relationship with Superman is framed as pure obsession, projection and fear, and that is a huge component of it, but there is also genuine love and admiration in there.

Digging through whatever stuff I have archived.

Rediscovered my Fairy Tail fics/drafts.

Was it already a decade? Fck, I guess it was.

Still absolutely loving Gajeel, he's such a fun character. I generally have a huge soft spot for the power of friendship gimmick this series has. Also the music slaps.

(also I'm impressed with my characterisation of Gajeel, the decade younger me aced the character voice)

And now I'm in mourning for the ancient thing known as discussion boards.

The Jury's stull out on who's the strongest among the Sannin.

But we have a very clear answer on who's the tankiest.

- Jiraiya got stabbed a bumch and died because of that

- Tsunade got stabbed a bunch and healed it just fine. However when she got bisected she needed a second party assistance on putting herself back together.

- Orochimaru got set on fire, exploded with a snake stuffed with exploding tags, got beaten into the ground by Tsunade, sealed by an asspull op jutsu twice, bisected and took a bijuu-dama to the face. Walked it off.

[captain-wereduck]

Okay.

Putting the morality, obligatory outrage and whatsnot on the shelf far away, WHAT is the timeline of Orochimaru's human experimentation?

Orochimaru allowed people to catch him sometime after Kyuubi happened, I'll say between a few months to max two years after. Also before Tenzo and Kakashi met, bc Oro is nosy yet had no idea Tenzo lived.

But what of before Kyuubi?

Goddamit, weekly published manga. Your timeline works only when no one looks at it.

My phone died (r.i.p.) and I've failed at keeping regular backups for shit bc i wasn't expecting it to go kaput at 4am.

You know, I did the thing where you're leaving stuff for later bc lazy despite it being like a whole several clicks and turning on my Bluetooth.

Anyhow, now i'm digging through whatever actually IS on my drive x)

Like I've totally fucking forgot about that 10k words of Orochimaru time travelling and doing the exact opposite stuff he did in canon on purpose.

Probably did vomit it up during one nanowrimo or another and then promptly forgot it was even in my head.
