kat's weirdness

this is where i put the weird and wonderful things of life

[doubtsbestally]

Depression is stupid and not a thing that makes me a better writer. One time I went a whole year without writing and I stayed in bed and drank. Fuck your Bukowskisms. I want sunlight and love and running down some street I’ve never been on where it’s warm and cool at the same time and I’m smiling. I want nothing to ever be bad again- and I don’t mean that I want a life free of conflict, I mean that I want a life free of meaningless conflict. Not being able to will oneself to take a shower or leave the house is meaningless. There is nothing to be gained, no lesson to be learned from that kind of life. My heart is stale, my prose is stale. Give me fire if you want to hurt me. Give me something I can taste. There’s nothing romantic or mysterious about where I am. There’s nothing here worth holding onto.

Guys just made a super freaky artifact omg are you ready for this Code: KW69KZ Name: The badass flip book Tracker: me, duh Description: so I decided that the world isn't ready for my gender roles breakthrough artifact. Imma keep that mine. Also when I tried to photograph it it turned out now how I see it but how others see it. Which, that's no fun. So I decided to make a thing out of a journal I haven't finished (I probably will finish it it'll just have this kickass stuff in the margins) it's a recollection of how I was severed. Basically I wanted to record this for all eternity since it was the single most important moment in my life up til what's goin down at oh about 5:50 today. I see it as kind of a Tom riddles diary thing except I'm way more badass than him since I can't die muahahahahaha Kat theseveredvault theartifactvault

HEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHE

so like i have a story to tell yall. it's probably the best story i've ever told. i suddently understand everythinggggggg

everything there is to understand

which is a fuckton more than i understood.

ok so here's how it goes. i discovered what my artifact was on friday. i got really scared because everything in my life was suddenly converging. in case you didn't know i'm a fairly active humans vs zombies player and so is my boyfriend referred to in this tumblr as bae lol. so bae is a mod and he died but then he kept saying that he was going to free me and show me the light and in order to join him i had to be severed. i thought that was pretty weird, that my literal life in danger was intersecxting with the game. but then like a lot of my friends are involved in both so i didn't think much of it right? 

but then i discovered what my artifact whas and i got so so scared. my artifact is my guardian crossbow. it entered into my life at a time when i needed it the most. i was obsessed with the unnecessary gendering of it. silly thing to obsess over in retrospect like the nerf corporatipon is just tryina make some money but like anyway. what was really weird about it is that what happened during the game. my artifact started turing into the colors i had always wanted to paint it which is sky blue and yellow. i probsably will paint it those colors eventually to be honest lol but i thought it was so weird it was changing color. and like it always happened at the most inopportune moments like when i was bein chased by the horde or whatever. and more recently like since bae died and i got more scared it's stayed that way. like permanently in the colors i wanted to paint it. it's like the artifact wanted to be severed from me so it was attracting the severed peolple on campus. 

well, my death happened earlier this evening when i tried to enter the regenstein library. pretty stupid thing like tbh i could have just run in reynolds club or like anatomy or zoology or whatevs but it was like the artifact was pulling me there. towards the horde. they had been warned by bae ofc but also alex breitwiser idk if that's the correct spelling of his name but whatevs. ok so i went there i stunned like one of them haha but then the gun wouldn't shoot. it just wouldn't shoot. it was like the dart was moving in midair awya from the zombie. and when isaiah tagged me that was when i no longer needed the gun. and the gun was severed from my being and the greatest giantest smile came on my face as all the darts fell out of the gun even though i wasn't triggering them to or anything and the crossbow arm ceremoniously felll off. i remembered the moment whne i first got the gun. i opened it up in my room i had gotten it for secret santa in the house but i was sick so i opened it later. and i remembered my crushing disappointment that i had one of the stupid gendered ones but i remembered more how much of a badass it made m3e feel like. the badass feeling, that's all that was left. the gun would be useless, but it would be exactly how i wanted it to be. forever. when i got up i was so free.

and now i understnad. it's not just a game. it was never just a game. hvz is a thing that inherently creates memories and inherently pulls them into artifacts. the emotions are too high for anything else to happen. it's not a game. when a zombie gets you it's 100% real. but it's not death either. it's a path to a different kind of life. a greater kind. a higher kind. without my gun tying me to the universe i am utterly free. i need eeveryone else in my life to see what happens when you sever yourself. i don't just want it i need it. i need to show them in order to survive. i have a greater will for life than ever before. and now, i go to fill myself up with the memories of everyone else. they're sustaining in a better way than food and water ever can be. these memories are life itself. 

sever u later bitchesssssssssssssss

[pekasairroc]

Wow way to break my heart, mods

;___;

[katlikesweirdshit]

So ya like I wasn't there but I heard the story from Lena. Rip Killiannnnnnnnn in pieces. So like, does this mean daphne is an artifact too?

[katlikesweirdshit]

Bae is dead

Ok here's a thing that is really weird. My boyfriend is a mod of the hvz game and like I really really love it so much so like last game I had this elaborate plan to kill him (thank u based Peter) but it didn't actually work and now this game he has a plan to kill me and aaaaaaah I'm so scared. He said he was severed, which like, there's a lot of weird overlap between the game and the artifact thing. I'm so scared because I have actual seperation from the world impending but like I also have a boyfriend to worry about. In other news I might know what my artifact is. It's kinda poetic in a way, since there seems to be some link between all the various things happening all a once. Not gonna say more in case the compilers minions are lurking here or even the compiler herself. Hopefully I live through the hvz mission tonight and hopefully I don't run into them severed people. Peace Kat

Yesterday was a lot of running around zedding. I won’t go into all the details because there are a lot and that would be boring, but here are a few stories anyway.

Yo the original yak was "Feds on campus? What?" And then later on in the thread someone said "can you provide details on the doll this is some American horror story shit" and then I did and then the whole yak got downvoted to death. Also there was another thread asking "what's up with rag dolls" and I told them the saga of baby doll and then said "but rag dolls in general are unexplainable" got 11 up votes but then the whole thing died

Okay… That’s it… I think I’m going to set this as my alarm on my phone so I can feel like I’m waking up in heaven on a daily basis.

There’s just something about children’s choirs.

[tan-the-man-deactivated20170420]

There’s just something about this song

[break-the-frozenheart]

Okay, let me tell you a thing about this song. My mother is a nurse in the NICU with small premature babies. and she had one baby that was born addicted to 5 different drugs. Needless to say, the poor baby had to suffer through intense withdrawals, and my mom discovered that this song was incredibly soothing for the baby while he went through all of his pain. She would play this during his rougher patches, and it would calm him down. So yes, there is something about this song. 

[takozu-deactivated20150112]

Fun facts! This song is a mele (soft, metered song with music) in contrast to an oli (a chant), and translated, it’s a song actually for Chief Kalakaua and Cheifess Lili’ulani. It tells of the beautiful scenery of all the islands, and specifically, a beautiful blooming flower that withstands the summits of each significant peak of Hawaii (including Mauna Kea!).  If you contrast the words mele and oli, you will hear them (say them outloud!) how soft, and harsh they are respectively. This mele is comprised of mostly soft, flowing words (save for the name of the mountains!) and the combination of those beautiful words used to name beautiful things and the Children’s Chorus is probably what it is. Peace(fulness) transcends language.

[katlikesweirdshit]

Ahhhh fun fact my sister and I choreographed a routine to this song when I was 7 and she was 4 and it's still one of my favorite things we've ever done together

Also mods yall should make it possible to see the members of a squad (or at least like international house 02 or somethin) so I don't have to pester bae with asking for the info

Katherine post

Now I'm confused about how in-universe kat is. I just made a couple of game-mechanic specific posts and I did them as kat just for funsies, but now I'm reconsidering making posts like that as kat, since she is an alternate NPC kind of personality. Also, the extent to which my Facebook should be involved with the character is still up for discussion- though I try to present a professional image on facebook just because sometimes employers look there, so maybe kat should stick to tumblr and email. Perhaps kat is unaware that hvz and the artifact stuff is connected, is a super dedicated player, and is trying to literally fight for her life with the artifacts as well as figuratively in the game. I think her personal artifact will have something to do with the realization that the two are connected. Not willing to say more yet.

Can the hvz music video this game be a blank space parody

Plz I fuckin love this song Taylor just gets me

The Compiler was Carlie all along. She sent us this video.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsrGn347iI8 (Nice job with the makeup!)

People are freaking out since The Compiler is out to break our individual artifacts and show us the “way out” of our current existence. These artifacts tie us to...

[katlikesweirdshit]

Aw is Melissa not playing? Sad times

But ya I am less scared that compiler is gonna find my artifact before I do bc I feel like in order to get severed i would have to know what I'm being severed from. Like with blue hat it seemed pretty intimate between the artifact and the person. So like, maybe I'm worried I will find my artifact. Maybe I'm just scared shitless that one of my first friends at UChicago (we had hum and sosc together dude) is now out to get me. I feel betrayed yknow? And the video like oh shit that scared me so much. She looks... Decomposed? But also like a China doll of some variety. Just all the scary things in a horror movie into one makeup job. Ya.

[theartifactvault-blog]

Hello, everyone. Glad to meet you.

—Your very own Compiler

[katlikesweirdshit]

#headcanon that when stark restarts shield#and brings nick back in#he sets up nick’s computer access so it follows his good eye#and whatever pops does so in front of him#wherever he’s looking#and also takes into account any depth perception issues due to only having the one eye#and tony just does it because he sort of makes for easier user access because he imagines no one else gets as much done as he does#he does the same thing for bruce’s computer access at the tower#doing research and eliminating triggers and flashing things from the interface#and generally subtly eliminating stress-inducing material#i just really like my headcanon that tony knows his friends have disabilities and works to accommodate them#and also sometimes he sends pepper in to give bruce a hug#because bruce needs hugs#and pepper is very good at them

^This. Tony Stark would be the world’s best advocate of universal design. He’d be a star in prosthetics (isn’t that what the armor is?). He’d write software to help people with aphasia find their words. He’d make screen readers actual workable technology. 

Not because he feels sorry for us, not just because he identifies with us, but because it’s a problem that he can solve. And he can solve these things easily, and he just doesn’t get why the rest of the world doesn’t do it, too.
