Temp pinned!

Hi, I'm Wes! My pronouns are he/him! My labels are: -demiguy

-polyamorous

-demiromantic

-bisexual

-queer

I am formally dx'd AuDHD, Tourette's Syndrome, Bipolar, and chronic depression (but fully support self dx and WILL help you self dx if you need help!) and unofficially I'm pretty sure I have cptsd or something similar

Things I enjoy are:

-Anime/Manga

-Video Games

-Crafts (I take commissions! Send an ask!)

My boundaries are:

-do NOT involve me in ship discourse or paraphilia discourse

-if you are a minor please refrain from flirting with me or discussing sexual topics

My website (that I desperately need to update) with my craft showcase is felt-frens.carrd.co and my etsy is www.etsy.com/shop/ButtonBuccaneers

If you like any of my felt creations or anything you see on my etsy, feel free to send a message or an ask and we can talk prices etc! Going through my etsy makes me less money, but if you want an established storefront to go through I have zero issue with that! If you've seen the pokeball keychains I've posted, I take commissions for custom ones! They're 15 dollars USD plus shipping! They're very light so the charges are lower than most heavier packages. They're under 1 ounce!

Nice to meet you all! DNI: terfs, radfems, gender crits, and other assorted anti-trans bigots. This is NOT a place for you, go back under the rock you crawled out from. also dni if you're going to assume bad faith when discussing something with me and dni if you're not willing to update your beliefs when confronted with evidence, testimony, a new perspective etc. oh, and dni if you're against punching nazis. Punching a nazi is ALWAYS morally correct. Go captain america on that shit.

Please, Newsom, shut the fuck up and crawl off into the fucking cave you stumbled out of already

[queer-as-city-folk]

Genuinely every single thing this man does makes me think more and more that he is the worst possible option for the democrats in 28, aside from maybe a Kamala rerun

[queer-as-city-folk]

He's a transphobic racist who works with capital over the needs of the people of California at every opportunity

[itsheckinwes]

And anti homeless.

That's homeless PEOPLE btw.

He's not out there preventing homelessness or giving people homes or making housing affordable

Just making it easy to harass and arrest people without the things he's barring access to.

Fuck him

I do think some of the "why does this mech have a scarf/sword/shield" comments I get are really funny. Buddy it's cuz they're cool as fuck. You can accept giant mechs as acceptable military vehicles but you draw the line at accessorizing? Same vibes as when someone complains about boobs on snake anthros

[newarc]

>Mechs with clothes are unrealistic, so let's remove those.

>Let's paint it a camo or an earth tone, because bright colors would stick out on a battlefield.

>Swords are not at all practical for the ranges in which a realistic mech might engage. Instead, lets make that sword a general purpose machine gun.

>To be more realistic, a mech should have sloping armor to minimize anti armor penetration, so let's ditch these right angles.

>The cockpit of the mech is too vulnerable, has too many moving parts, and is often in an obviously telegraphed location. Let's move the cockpit to a point where it has maximum armor coverage from all angles and make the entry/exit system simpler.

>A mech having hands is not necessary, as in a combined arms scenario a mech would rely on other units specifically designed for manipulation tasks. Let's make those modular hardpoints instead.

>Actually, legs would be a massive vulnerability if shot and would not bring many battlefield advantages. Seeing as they're altogether superfluous if a mech is used in tandem with higher mobility units, let's instead replace them with all-terrain treads.

Your new mech:

Fucking hell that's cool

Me for the last 15 years: Starting a timer when you have to wait for something or stand in line can be helpful, because no matter how impatient you feel you can check the timer and remind yourself it has not been several eternities and has in fact only been five minutes.

Me setting a timer when I got to bag claim just now: I'm so clever! I will now be reminded that it's only been five minutes and bag claim usually takes about twenty!

Me looking at the timer thoughtfully: ...another Very Neurotypical Moment With Sam, it appears.

[copperbadge]

FTR it was 17 minutes from "arriving at the bag claim" to claiming my bag, so right on time.

[copperbadge]

Someone tagged this post "#it’s all fun n games until baggage check takes over an hour" which is 100% legit; a common sentiment in notes is that sometimes you don't want to know how long something has taken. But that is one of the reasons I started doing the stopwatch thing in the first place!

On the one hand, timing something is about reminding myself "No, it's only been five minutes," but it is ALSO about knowing when something is taking way longer than it should.

If I'm put into an exam room in a doctor's office, I start a timer. Because I have been forgotten about in a doctor's office before, I get nervous that I'll just be sat in there forever, and the timer tells me "No, they haven't forgotten you, it's only been 10 minutes." But it also tells me if I have been there longer than appropriate (generally more than 40 minutes) so that I know when it's justifiable to flag down a nurse to find out what's going on.

At bag claim, because I know it usually takes about 20 minutes to get my bag, I don't get concerned until the timer passes the 20 minute mark without any bags appearing. At that point I know I need to take off my headphones and start paying attention -- looking at signage, maybe asking someone if I'm at the right carousel. Maybe don't worry yet, but start double-checking. Perhaps the delay is unavoidable and it'll just be an hour, but at least, having asked, I KNOW it'll be an hour, and the timer will tell me when the hour is past and I should maybe check in again.

Now, if the bags do start showing up before 20 minutes but my bag hasn't shown up by the 40 minute mark, I know that again it's time to put my head on a swivel, and at the 50 minute mark it's time to go speak to someone in the baggage claim office. This has more than once helped me locate my bag when it's accidentally been sent to the wrong part of the airport. There is no point at which, without the timer, I would go "man this is taking a long time" and then actually go ask, because I wouldn't actually know how long it had been.

The timer both prevents me from worrying before I need to and tells me when to start worrying -- essentially, because I'm both perpetually impatient and also infinitely patient, I've outsourced my patience to a stopwatch. And because I time a lot of things, I now know the average time a lot of things take, which helps me calibrate my concerns appropriately. Ten minutes is a long time to wait for a burger from McDonalds, but it's actually on the short end of the time it takes to get a burger from Shake Shack. It's not a long time to be on hold with the HR office of my old employer, but it's longer than I'd usually be on hold with my pharmacy. Et cetera.

I know I say this all the time but I still find it hilarious that I didn't know I had ADHD until I was forty years old.

[dreamtofswallowingcoins]

just want to add that I've started timing myself doing everyday chores and tasks and having a more realistic, personalized idea of how long things take has helped a lot with my time blindness.

I only just started, and it's not yet habitual, so there's only a small bit of info, but it's already made it easier to avoid rushing or getting stuck in waiting mode because it takes out a lot of the guesswork.

And it lets me have grace for myself when something is really taking it out of me. I'm right, this *is* taking forever and it isn't usually this hard, so what's going on? Do I need to rest? Eat? Did I forget my meds? Am I overwhelmed? Etc.

I feel like a scientist gathering and applying data.

Showers on typical days only take "about ten minutes" (me, 2025), therefore, I CAN shower before my appointment that's two hours away.

Contrary to popular belief, doing a quick tidy takes "less than half an hour" (me, 2026) and will not take the better part of a day. I don't need to dread or put it off because I can start a 20min episode and I'll be done before the credits roll.

The proposed estimate of "10-30 miserable minutes in the cold when the warm blankets are right there" (time blindness and depression, 2024), is erroneous, and based on pre-medicated data. As tempting as it is to go straight back to bed after peeing, my research shows that brushing teeth, including "prep and cleanup," rarely takes more than four minutes and may even improve morale and momentum when getting up for the day.

[copperbadge]

This is awesome and hey guess what: you ARE a scientist gathering and applying data!

I'm super proud of you and everyone who is working to keep their lives together in the face of disability and the general horrors of the world right now. Keep up the great work! And if things slip a little that's ok too. None of us are perfect. Just keep taking notes...for SCIENCE!

Teachers have tried this and are amazed when their classes don’t go feral like in the book.  It’s almost as if the book was supposed to be satire and not a treaty on the nature of humanity.

THERE’S A TIMESKIP

after losing control of the signal fire there’s a FUCKING TIMESKIP and when the next chapter starts everyone’s hair is several inches longer and their clothes have rotted to shreds and they’re still just kind of chilling!!!!

IT TAKES THE TERRIBLE IMPERIALISM MIND-POISONED EXCESSIVELY BRITISH BOYS IN THE ACTUAL BOOK SEVERAL MONTHS TO COMMIT A SINGLE ACT OF INTENTIONAL VIOLENCE, EVEN THE ONE (1) CHILD WRITTEN AS AN ACTUAL SOCIOPATH

AND then when they DO turn on each other it is because

THERE’S AN UNSPECIFIED WORLD WAR HAPPENING

AND A PILOT’S CORPSE CRASH LANDS ON THE ISLAND POST-DOGFIGHT AND THE CHILDREN MISTAKE THE PARACHUTE FOR A MONSTER AND SPIRAL INTO PARANOIA

BECAUSE CHILDREN INHERIT THE LEGACY AND TRAUMA OF VIOLENCE FROM THE ADULTS WAGING WAR AROUND THEM

HURR DURR IN THE REAL WORLD IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN LIKE IN LORD OF THE FLIES -

IT DIDN’T HAPPEN THAT WAY IN LORD OF THE FLIES EITHER YOU JUST HAVEN’T READ IT SINCE HIGH SCHOOL IF EVER AND DON’T REMEMBER WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN THE GODDAMN BOOK

#tbf the dude wrote it to be a dick

yes. yes he did. i’m also gonna direct you to the real life ‘lord of the flies’ which occured in the 1960s, when six tongan schoolboys got stranded on a desert island for over a year before being rescued by an australian fisherman (who, it should be noted, later took on all six as crewmembers because the reason they were out in the first place was because they wanted to see the world, and named his ship the Ata after the island they were stranded on). nobody died. the only injuries that occurred were accidental, and when one of the boys broke his leg falling down a cliff, the others braced it and looked after him so well that it healed perfectly. if they argued, then they would literally go to opposite sides of the island until they’d cooled off. after leaving the island, they remained friends for the rest of their lives. here’s a photo of them as adults, with their rescuer (who is third from the left) and other members of his crew.

i read about this in rutger bregman’s human kind, a book i cannot recommend highly enough, but if you don’t want to go and read a whole book about the inherent goodness of humanity (which again, you really should) then the relevant excerpt can be found here.

What if I declared myself a pretender to some throne somewhere

[natalieironside]

Fuck it, big one. I'm the legitimate Queen of England.

[annoyingalchemist]

Was this legitimacy conferred by blood, pond sword, or did you beat ol' Elizabeth at blackjack?

[natalieironside]

The great and terrible god Wōden rode down out of the sky and gave me a mandate to rule over all the Angelcynn. It was tight

[sympathischeufos]

Question. I assume you are familiar with The Game, which makes you lose when you think of it. Ancient playground lore says that the game never ends, unless the sovereign of England so declares.

In the event of your ascension to the throne, do you swear to put an end to The senseless and cruel Game?

[natalieironside]

Yeah sure. I (we?) declare the game to be over at last. Everybody wins.

[coyotegirl-writer-s-block]

what was Wōden riding? was it a really big loud badass motorcycle? I hope it was a big loud badass motorcycle

[natalieironside]

No it was that cool spiderhorse he's got

My child, who spends their entire life being transfered from home to car to school and back, and is not allowed to leave the house or talk to anyone and can only in their wildest dreams imagine a life free from constant surveillance, is very sad. Obviously they're dumb and lazy, like all kids these days.

[whineandcheese24]

kind of a tangent but i recently went to a bowling alley with my friend i'm 19 he's 18 and the woman at the door didn't want to let us in because there was a sign saying under-18s needed adult supervision. everything got cleared up and we were able to go bowl, but i'm still so mad about the fact that kids need adult supervision to go to a bowling alley and arcade. like okay maybe young kids should have supervision but what do you mean middle and high schoolers need to hold mommy's hand while they play video games. kids aren't just addicted to their phones because phones are addicting, we're addicted to our phones because there's nothing else to fucking do

[shamebats]

I'm sure banning kids from online spaces while simultaneously not ensuring that they have access to offline spaces to socialize in (without having to rely on their parents who already don't have time for them) will help them feel better & less alienated from society.
