Who is up backing their rooms?

Oh you know it sister.

Clark loves his horrors-beyond-his-comprehension stew that I make for him (I'm the one who killed Bobby. I needed more ingredients)

Who is up backing their rooms?

No more sleeping with my phone within reach because I was having an extremely vivid dream that I was the victim of some sort of mass-poisoning. the notorious poisoner? "The Centipede Cult." They used a specific type of poison, referred to only by its chemical nomenclature, which I somehow remembered perfectly upon waking. It went: □□ Na({}^{2})

Because that makes sense. Anyway, this poison would submit me to its well-known and much-feared symptom: "17 Day Paralysis" in which you're paralyzed for exactly 17 days and you only chance of survival is to be on full machine support for 17 days.

Just before the medical team intubated me I remembered I have a Zoom meeting with my academic advisor today (I actually do in real life) and I needed to email him to let him know I was the victim of a mass-poisoning and would need to reschedule.

I kept trying to type the "□" symbol in my dream but could not figure out how and gave up.

I woke up in real life to find I'd begun drafting an email in my sleep to my professor in the Gmail app. I was apparently using talk-to-text (I often do because of my hand neuropathy) but speaking in Irish, which talk-to-text never understands, so other than the words in English "poison" and "centipede" the entire email was complete nonsense.

[wizardarchetypes]

I told my advisor about this and he said, "well, if you had been poisoned, I would have provided you whatever academic supports available to us."

[wizardarchetypes]

Bc so many people have asked, the □ in the dream was in fact just a wingdings square symbol. Your phone/browser isn't blocking an emoji. You're seeing it right.

[lore-gore]

Please you need to show us the email

On a more serious note, always kinda weirds me out when tally hall/miracle musical fans say the only hawaii pt 2 song they don't like is labyrinth "oh it's so out of place" "I just think it sounds weird" just say you don't like art by black ppl and go

When the topic becomes about racism between children you very quickly realise children of colour aren't seen as children but as some other thing that should just take the abuse and then forgive the Real White Children because they didn't know better. They don't understand it but children of colour can and will very early in their youth.

Does anyone else think The Hypnotist looks like Rudy Giuliani

The one thing I can articulate is that no amount of being disabled can prevent you from being ableist. Especially towards people with different impairment types or more severe disability.

I've been trying to figure out what rare degenerative disorder to headcanon Ricky/Savannah with, and I think I found it: a form of spinocerebellar ataxia, as it can cause dysarthria (slurred or slow speech) and ataxia (muscle weakness). Now I just need to figure out what type, which is going to be tough because there are 50 types and when I tried to google which types don't affect vision google just gave me the ones that do.

[lore-gore]

Why do these articles keep telling me "oh there are 49 different types!!!" and then only listing six. I'm going to just have to look up each individual one.

I don't have moral ocd but my anxiety disorder these past few years has started to be more focused on morality, and I've found that posts and articles directed towards people with moral ocd help me better than articles about how to forgive yourself after making a mistake. I want to let it go and leave it alone, but I just can't.

Hey do you know what rumination is?

Rumination is probably the most common type of OCD compulsion, but I rarely see anyone talking about it. I've talked to multiple people diagnosed with OCD who didn't even recognize it as a compulsion.

Basically, if you have OCD you have terrible intrusive thoughts. They can be about anything, but common themes are fear of being a bad person, fear of hurting someone, fear of contamination. etc.

Rumination is when you get stuck in a spiral. Rumination is when you spend hours catastrophizing, overthinking, analyzing, telling yourself it's going to be okay.

I'll say it again:

Rumination is a compulsion.

Rumination is a compulsion, and that means you have to stop doing it.

I did ERP (exposure response prevention) for my OCD with a therapist! For 9 months! And it did help, but the idea didn't really click until I found this website a couple years later.

And Oh My God. It made things make so much more sense, and I was able to pull myself out of an episode even though I wasn't in therapy or on meds at the time.

Genuinely if you have OCD, or even if you suspect you have OCD, I'm begging you to read some of these articles.

Like this was genuinely life changing for me.

Here are some of the ones that were most helpful to me:

Defining Rumination

How to Stop Ruminating
