News Flash: Anxious Ace on the Prowl

Call me Gertrude! (She/her) I'm a big nerd that can't sleep and posts art once and a while. Header by matchbox-mouse. Icon by cryptidsp00n!

[mijomii]

Played Among Us with friends last night and one player (Spinach) murdered me really quickly so I went “But I just wanted us to hold hands :(…” to which he answered “Oh, I’ll hold your hand then, next round.” And we spent easily 3 to 4h buddying together through all our games and we never killed each other but always having each other’s backs. 

One game in peculiar, he follows me like usual and stay by me. Never do any task, but stay with me no matter what which I found odd, but maybe he was waiting for me to finish my tasks so he could go on with his. Then the screen darken. Impostors won. He was Impostor but never attacked me, he literally bodyguarded me from the other imposter (WHO DID A FUCKING RAMPAGE BECAUSE WE DID MAYBE ONE MEETING??) and that was adorable of him.

but yeah. rampage happened while he was just babysitting me doing my wires.

Obsessed with the old lady in the store I overheard say, "Well, you know me. I can't resist a gnome"

Petition for a comic that’s just the Joker vs. a bunch of frighteningly competent normal arse clowns who have gone temporarily vigilante for the sole purpose of taking the Joker down for his repeated violations of the clown code.

[possibly-the-antichrist-deactiv]

since i doubt the joker ever copyrighted his makeup with a clown egg, they’re all wearing his ‘face’ 

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

“What are you so mad about, Joker? We’re technically not in costume; it’s not like this is a clown’s face. Show us a clown with this and we’ll respect his use of it.”

[sigiledpaladin]

Please someone mock up a page of Joker running terrified through a hallway, as a dozen clowns chase him, all chanting “SHOW US YOUR EGG”  and Batman just watching from security monitors like “Huh. Thats new.”

I kind of didn’t have a shirt on because I was running a bath when he reached out to me with his paw, but wanted to capture this moment.  He is a hard lived 12 years old so we aren’t sure of his true health. Oscar, as you might recall from early in my blog, was just starting to let me touch him. This is now. 

[princesstigerbelle]

Oh my god that is adorable

What a mood

[copperbadge]

I feel like not enough attention is being paid to the savagery of “said accurately of himself” right before the mood. 

[sweetschizo-deactivated20190808]

There’s a fine line between “pushing yourself out of your comfort zone” and “pushing yourself into a mental breakdown” and we need to fucking find it and stop encouraging people to do the second in an attempt at making them do the first.

[hugealienpie]

A German pedagogue named Tom Senninger developed this model called the “Learning Zone Model.” Senninger talks about three zones: comfort, learning (or growth), and panic. I think that’s really important because some people do talk like anything “outside your comfort zone” is automatically good and brings growth.

But Senninger knows that you can only stretch so far before you’ve stretched too far. Both experience, personal work, and therapy can help expand the first two zones and shrink the third, but we’ll always have that place where panic and/or pain sets in, and our goal should be to recognize and respect that in ourselves and others, rather than force ourselves or someone else to “push through it.” There is no “through it.” The only thing on the other side of the panic zone is more panic.

y’all please evacuate don’t be stubborn

[savannahgambino-deactivated2023]

As a Floridian who’s been through this a million times, listen to me. A category 3 hit us before and we were out of power for two weeks and Florida cities are literally BUILT for hurricanes. This is a category 4, almost 5. Houses on the upper east coast aren’t hurricane proofed like they are here.

PLEASE evacuate your family and pets.

My Asexual Story, 2018.

Another little autobiographical comic I whipped together (this was drawn in like two hours tops so don’t judge the drawings lmao). To clarify, I am in a happy long-term committed relationship with a non-ace girl and we’re both very happy with our relationship, and I have never had bad experiences with relationships because of my asexuality. Being ace isn’t a big deal to me - I barely think about it - but asexuality is something that a lot of people seem to have trouble fully understanding, so I wanted to take some time to describe it the way I see it in my life and from my perspective. Every story is different - here’s mine.

[brithistorian]

Such a beautiful story. I hope this helps more people understand.

[acegirlproblems]

Beautiful

I love this <3

I planted some saguaro seeds about a week ago. Who woukda thunk that such large lads start out so smol. (submitted @nolayelde)

this speaks for itself when paired with a pic of the grown plant for scale:

they usually live to be 150+ years old. cutting one down in Arizona, where they’re native, is a felony with a maximum 9 months in prison. 

in my brief wikipedia exploration to find out how old they could be for this ask i found out that there was a dude in 1982 who was vandalizing one (which is also highly illegal) by shooting at it and then poking at it, and not only did the 500 pound arm of the cactus he was shooting at fall on top of him, but the actual trunk of the cactus then also proceeded to fall on him. he died. smited by the cactus gods for his transgressions 

[nolayelde]

There was one we had in our backyard that fell on our fence and buckled the steel bar. When the guy came by to take it away he sliced into roughly foot long segments and we kept one. It was really cool in the inside, also the chlorophyll is on the inside. My mom turned the outer layer into a lampshade

Sorry it’s dusty lmao no idea how to clean it

[botanyshitposts]

i…………..idk how to react to this but this is definitely an item i wasn’t expecting 

[korra]

awkward how reassuring i find this

[womensstudiesofficial-deactivat]

well ya duh society shames speech patterns associated with young women

[vickorano]

“Speech fillers” are just a human’s way of saying “wait a sec I’m thinking”. It means we think more before we speak, always trying to find the right way to say it. Every language has them. And people shouldn’t be annoyed by it, ever.

[feministfront]

just to reiterate because it’s a personal pet peeve of mine: “society shames speech patterns associated with young women”

[mbmbimbo]

my little sister: when trolls 2 comes out you have to take me!
