It keeps going

[geekdawson]

one of the more valuable things I’ve learned in life as a survivor of a mentally unstable parent is that it is likely that no one has thought through it as much as you have. 

no, your friend probably has not noticed they cut you off four times in this conversation. 

no, your brother didn’t realize his music was that loud while you were studying. 

no, your bff or S.O. doesn’t remember that you’re on a tight deadline right now.

no, no one else is paying attention to the four power dynamics at play in your friend group right now.  

a habit of abused kids, especially kids with unstable parents, is the tendency to notice every little detail. We magnify small nuances into major things, largely because small nuances quickly became breaking points for parents. Managing moods, reading the room, perceiving danger in the order of words, the shift of body weight….it’s all a natural outgrowth of trying to manage unstable parents from a young age. 

Here’s the thing: most people don’t do that. I’m not saying everyone else is oblivious, I’m saying the over analysis of minor nuances is a habit of abuse. 

I have a rule: I do not respond to subtext. This includes guilt tripping, silent treatments, passive aggressive behavior, etc. I see it. I notice it. I even sometimes have to analyze it and take a deep breath and CHOOSE not to respond. Because whether it’s really there or just me over-reading things that actually don’t mean anything, the habit of lending credence to the part of me that sees danger in the wrong shift of body weight…that’s toxic for me. And dangerous to my relationships. 

The best thing I ever did for myself and my relationships was insist upon frank communication and a categorical denial of subtext. For some people this is a moral stance. For survivors of mentally unstable parents this is a requirement of recovery.

I asked my boyfriend in Canada once, how he deals with polar bears because I was curious about what to do and he was like, just be calm, let them know you’re there, and give them space and they’ll usually just go away.

Calling all Actors, Artists and Musicians 

Hello there! I’m Mort one of the lead developers of Dapper Frog Games. I currently voice Antisepticeye for Sarcastic Pasta games’ The Boss: Glitch in the System, with over 11 months of voice acting and 20 years of acting experience, story and script writing, event hosting/running, plot running for RPs, dungeon mastering and much more! I’ve been trying to make a game of my own ever since rpg maker MV was released (previously i was on a trial with vx ace) and as my team slowly grows I believe its time to make it grow larger! 

Dapper Frog Games is seeking folks to help out in the creation of a Jacksepticeye fan game! Inspired by games like Batman Arkham Knight, Monkey Island, Secret Of Mana and more we’re aiming for a unique adventure with witty banter, comedy, action, horror and so much more to offer!

About the game  As Jack awakens from his coma it seems that things have changed while hes been gone. Everything is a mess, his friends are missing and it seems as though a certain glitchy someone might be the reason why. Jack must work together with his alter egos in order to solve puzzles only they can solve and find out just whats been going on while hes been asleep! Confronting Anti seems to be the ultimate goal but perhaps there is more going on than meets the ole septic eye…. The game offers an in depth story, plenty of quirky original characters, challenging puzzles, and a mechanic that allows the player to switch characters at will as they’ll be required to think about what is presented to them. The game also features voice acting and Easter eggs to find throughout and will offer a way for its team to deliver their own personal message to Jack himself.

We are currently seeking the following (Please note that we use rpg maker MV as our platform) Artists for posters, cut scenes and in game pictures Sprite artists for characters of all kinds Tile set artists for scenery in the game, items and more Sound and music (any kind will do as we seek to have some originality) Sound editors (bonus points if you can make glitchy sound effects) Voices for the following characters; Chase Schneeplestein Jackieboy man Marvin Robbie Angus Guards (any tone of voice) Child boy Child girl Jim news Jims Signe Possible others to be added, stay posted! 

Were looking for people with experience in rpg maker MV to help with coding and making the game work as intended Folks with experience in making cut scenes for rpg maker And just about anyone who thinks they can help out! We’ll also be looking for beta testers too!! 

Reblog with a comment if you’d like to join us. If you have examples of your work please include them in the reblog for me to check out, even just a link to your portfolio will do. If you don’t have examples that’s fine we can chat about it still! I will consider everyone interested as all ideas are welcome! We hope to hear from you soon!  And if you’re not interested, please help us out with a reblog someone you know may be interested instead! Signal boosting is always helpful and we’ll be eternally grateful! Thank you for reading!

Das weiße Land (Tag der offenen Tür)

http://www.dasweisseland.de/p/home.html

It kills me to think about you being with anybody else, but I simply cannot keep you.

My most beautiful boy. This is goodbye. 

[ishtarv]

Tonight I feel like writing

Tonight I feel like telling people something about me. For example that I dream of a quiet life. That just two days ago I dreamt I was living on an island, together with my best friend, in a cottage made out of stone. It wasn't a relationship, more like living with your sister and I was very happy. 

Today, I’m sad. My relationship is over and I miss it in a weird way. Not the relationship itself, but the security. And I miss my father. I just read my entry from four years ago (and noticed all of the mistakes) about my fathers death and remembered what it was like. Ending a relationship is always also like losing someone. Especially when its been a long relationship. Your partner becomes your best friend. Your ally, your family. You kill a relationship, so you have to bury that friend and ally. At least most of the time. 

Anyway, tonight I miss my father. I miss that feeling I never had of this great protector that loves you unconditionally because any and all male love I ever experienced always felt conditional. Not that female love was that different over all, but I have my mom and she is the definition of unconditional love. She would help me dissolve corpses and destroy evidence without ANY hesitation. 

I know I’m rambling. And I’m writing this down just the way it comes to my mind. Stream of consciousness. But it helps. Tomorrow I have a date. Tomorrow, I’ll start all over. All the pain, all the joy, the misery and my fortress, with its incredible walls out of marble and cotton candy, protecting a centre of pain and never ending joy that I refuse to let anybody damage. 

I can’t wait.

[ishtarv]

Well...

Everybody is being a bit of a cunt right now.
