Another creature has moved its way at taking over my thoughts
I want to replicate his vibe so bad. I wanna be the odd cat /ᐠ。ꞈ。ᐟ\
For the past month or so he has slowly becoming a favorite character of mine
Thought dump because why not!
Man, I need to write more outside of school work. I really have had the itch to write fanfiction specifically.
This is the last week of the spring term. After I finish all my school work I need to write more in my Welcome Home and Winnie the Pooh crossover fic. I also have another Welcome Home fic idea, but this time with angst. Hehehehe
I also wanna write something with Battat from Deltarune. That stupid green die won't leave my brain! Your rent is due pal! Not sure what exactly though. Speaking of Deltarune fic ideas, I wanna write fanfiction of my Deltarune OCs. I don't care if it's "cringe". I'm free! I have a silly pippins and shadowguy OC that I'm keen on working with more.
stupid cube that i hate and lovely sphere that i adore
It's still Tuesday where I am. Jongler Tuesday! Raaaah!
wgat the hell
the existence of uncanny valley would suggest there is also a canny mountain
Canny Mountain, Charlie!
It's a lot healthier to go for a daily walk than to sign up for a gym membership you won't be using because you hate that kind of exercise. It's a lot healthier to eat a frozen meal than to skip a meal because you were too tired to cook something healthy. It's a lot healthier to take a quick shower than to procrastinate an elaborate routine for days. Don't aim so high that you won't be hitting anything!
this is actually really helpful and affirming thanks
*in tears* Thanks kitty, I needed this...
top 5 favorite benrey moments for me because he doesnt even sound like hes fucking around with gordon this is a reaction of genuine concern towards the lack of a food suit

thought that this needs to be shared...
wretched looking gonzo is my favourite gonzo
I have this silly little head canon for Wally (this is totally me projecting onto him, I adore him to pieces. Don't mind me XD ).
Not completely canon, but Wally seems to have problems when it comes to sleeping. This is where my head canon comes in. I head canon him to be a sleep walker.
Outside of depiction you see in film and cartoons, your eyes are open when you sleep walk.
For me, my parents and friends have said I would creep them out a bit when I slept walked due to me never blinking. I would also just stare anonymously, not paying to mind anyone around me.
I totally see Wally doing this. I love to imagine, Barnaby staying over for the first time at Wally's and they would both fall asleep. Barnaby wakes up during the night and sees Wally sitting up in bed, staring with big ol' eyes. "Walls? Whatcha doing buddy?" Barnaby would ask tiredly. He'd get no reply. Wally continued to stare. Maybe a few mumbles of incohesive blabber would come out from Wally eventually. Barnaby recognized he was asleep and laid him back down. Wally's eyes were still open. Barnaby decided to slowly place a eye mask over his head.
Again this is me very much projecting onto Wally.
According to the CDC, in 10 percent of those drownings, the adult will actually watch the child do it, having no idea it is happening. Drowning does not look like drowning—Dr. Pia, in an article in the Coast Guard’s On Scene magazine, described the Instinctive Drowning Response like this:
“Except in rare circumstances, drowning people are physiologically unable to call out for help. The respiratory system was designed for breathing. Speech is the secondary or overlaid function. Breathing must be fulfilled before speech occurs.
Drowning people’s mouths alternately sink below and reappear above the surface of the water. The mouths of drowning people are not above the surface of the water long enough for them to exhale, inhale, and call out for help. When the drowning people’s mouths are above the surface, they exhale and inhale quickly as their mouths start to sink below the surface of the water.
Drowning people cannot wave for help. Nature instinctively forces them to extend their arms laterally and press down on the water’s surface. Pressing down on the surface of the water permits drowning people to leverage their bodies so they can lift their mouths out of the water to breathe.
Throughout the Instinctive Drowning Response, drowning people cannot voluntarily control their arm movements. Physiologically, drowning people who are struggling on the surface of the water cannot stop drowning and perform voluntary movements such as waving for help, moving toward a rescuer, or reaching out for a piece of rescue equipment.
From beginning to end of the Instinctive Drowning Response people’s bodies remain upright in the water, with no evidence of a supporting kick. Unless rescued by a trained lifeguard, these drowning people can only struggle on the surface of the water from 20 to 60 seconds before submersion occurs.”
This doesn’t mean that a person that is yelling for help and thrashing isn’t in real trouble—they are experiencing aquatic distress. Not always present before the Instinctive Drowning Response, aquatic distress doesn’t last long—but unlike true drowning, these victims can still assist in their own rescue. They can grab lifelines, throw rings, etc.
Look for these other signs of drowning when persons are in the water:
Head low in the water, mouth at water level
Head tilted back with mouth open
Eyes glassy and empty, unable to focus
Eyes closed
Hair over forehead or eyes
Not using legs—vertical
Hyperventilating or gasping
Trying to swim in a particular direction but not making headway
Trying to roll over on the back
Appear to be climbing an invisible ladder
So if a crew member falls overboard and everything looks OK—don’t be too sure. Sometimes the most common indication that someone is drowning is that they don’t look like they’re drowning. They may just look like they are treading water and looking up at the deck. One way to be sure? Ask them, “Are you all right?” If they can answer at all—they probably are. If they return a blank stare, you may have less than 30 seconds to get to them. And parents—children playing in the water make noise. When they get quiet, you get to them and find out why.

BOOST FOR THE SUMMER. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.
Can I just say thank you to OP for putting such a detailed description on this?
I’ve been a lifeguard for 6 years now and of all the saves I’ve done, maybe two or three had people drowning in the stereotypical thrashing style. And even those, like the save I made last weekend, it was exactly like OP describes where the person’s head is going in and out of the water but it isn’t long enough to get any air. Mostly you recognize drowning by the look on someone’s face. If someone looks wide eyed and terrified or confused, chances are they’re drowning. That look of “oh shit” is pretty easily recognizable. And even if you can’t tell for sure: GO AFTER THEM ANYWAY. I’ve done “saves” where a kid was pretending to drown and I mistook it for real drowning, but that’s preferable to a kid ACTUALLY drowning.
Also please remember that even strong swimmers can drown if they have a medical emergency, get cramps, or get too tired. If your friend knows how to swim but they’re acting funny get them to land. And even if someone can respond when you ask them if they need help, if they say they do need help? GO HELP THEM.
However . If the victim is a stranger, I can’t recommend trying to get them. Lifeguards literally train to escape “attacks,” because people who are drowning can freak the fuck out and grab you and make YOU drown as well. If you do go in after someone, take hold of them from the back and talk to them the whole time. IF YOU ARE GRABBED: duck down into the water as low as you can get. The person is panicking and won’t want to go under water and should release you. Shove up at their hands and push them away from you as you duck under. Don’t die trying to save someone else.
Please guys, read and memorize this post. Not all places have lifeguards. Being able to recognize drowning is such an important skill to have and you can save someone’s life.
Just incase!
In a water park once, I was suddenly grabbed by a child and he dragged me under the water without warning. I was going to get angry with him when I resurfaced because I thought he was being an ass, until I looked at him go back in and out hyperventilating the entire time. I grabbed him under his arms and began trying to drag him out while screaming for the lifeguard.
When the lifeguard got us both out, a woman came running down and accused me of harming him and said he had been completely fine in the water. That there was no reason to drag him out of there. The lifeguard had to explain to her that her son had been drowning, to which her response was to say that she didn’t hear him call for help.
People seriously need to learn the signs.
http://spotthedrowningchild.com/ really demonstrates how easy it is to miss drowning
Small addition regarding drowning victims potentially drowning you if you don’t know what you’re doing:
I’ve been in the water since before I could walk, but one time when I was little I got caught in something (not a rip tide I think because I would have been moved much further away, but definitely a strong current of some kind, at least for baby me) and pulled down. I don’t remember a lot besides panicking and everything feeling the wrong speed, but I know I latched on to my cousin’s leg hard enough to draw blood and that’s how I got back out. Which is good! But I wish to stress that I was maybe five and weighed about as much as a medium size dog at most, she was a strong healthy swimmer in her late teens, and with me latched on like that she couldn’t swim. If someone else hadn’t seen her go down all of a sudden (I think she did shout, what with the tiny death grip nails) we might have both been dead. A drowning person doesn’t have to be capable of physically overpowering you under normal circumstances to panic-drown you.
I assure you: somebody, somewhere, is on the exact same wavelength as you are.
what they dont tell you is its easier to draw stuff if you've seen a bunch of stuff. but you aint lookin at stuff while you're looking at the drawing. its fucked up but true. sometimes you cant solve it any other way then lookin at stuff.
