Rising and Falling

he/they, OSDD system, non-binary. This blog is mainly related to me coming to grips with being a system, coping with trauma, and all that, but I am not very stable in all things and will often drift into fandom and anything else that strikes one of us in the moment. What I'm saying is that it's chaos all the way down so good luck.

"If you had a disorder as serious as DID, we would notice."

You did notice, you just called it by a different name.

When you noticed us acting different, you called it

childish

standoffish

unpredictable

too sensitive

insensitive

dramatic

manipulative

intentionally being difficult

When you noticed our amnesia, you called it

irresponsible

flakey

forgetful

not listening

not trying

unreliable

lying

When you noticed us dissociating, you called it

spaciness

not caring

stonewalling

acting stupid on purpose

wasting time

People love to say they care about people with mental illness, and then disbelieve anyone who has one because they've already passed judgement on them.

I would frame that shit and put it over my fireplace and make everyone who came into my home wonder.

Run it through some filters first to make it look like a painting and it will probably erase any sign of the ledge.

The Day the Dinosaurs Died

A young paleontologist may have discovered a record of the most significant event in the history of life on Earth.

hey, @bunjywunjy - this might be your jam (and any other dinosaur enthusiasts, it’s a heck of a read)

[bunjywunjy]

man that’s not just a heck of a read it’s fuckin GROUNDBREAKING is what it is!

this dude actually found a large fossil deposit that was created not just close to, but actually DURING THE K-PG EXTINCTION EVENT.

IT’S LITERALLY A WINDOW BACK IN TIME TO THE CHICXULUB IMPACT, AND TURNS OUT IT WAS WORSE THAN ANYTHING WE COULD POSSIBLY HAVE IMAGINED

it’s a geologic snapshot of the apocalypse.

[tratserenoyreve]

reading the full article is certainly a trip, and to summarize for those who are intimidated by longer reads:

- chicxulub is the given name for the meteor that struck/initiated the event

- the paleontologist within is described as making groundbreaking discoveries of multiple species every day, but many of his peers discount him because they’re grouchy old dudes he accidentally had a fragment of a turtle bone involved in a larger reconstruction of a fossil this one time and they won’t let him live it down.

- the extinction event was so fast and so destructive, this guy describes this particular dig-site as being so densely layered with dead and dying creatures, there is a lot of organic tissues that have been preserved, and he is able to even discern that many of the marine and freshwater fish may have still been alive as they were buried due to molten glass being found in their gills, implying they were still attempting to breathe.

- they looked into exactly when and how this could have happened, having freshwater and marine animals stacked on top of mammals and larger dinosaurs (including an amazing deinonychus forearm discovery he was able to match to feather fossils he was finding atop the pile), and rather it being the initial tsunami, they are fairly sure that it was caused by a seiche of catastrophic proportions, which would have been set off within the first hour of the event. denser and larger creatures sunk to the bottom, leaving lighter debris like leaves, small fish, feathers, and molten glass on the surface.

summary: terrifying!

[lastoneout]

This is fucking incredible

[kerolunaticat]

Holy SHIT!

[peannlui]

Here’s a famous book snippet describing how feasible that we could find dinosaur fossils on the moon.

Adding this, since I didn’t know the word and pronunciation

[mckitterick]

so, yeah, the Caribbean Sea seiched up outta its bed and walloped the land with a deluge of sea creatures right after the impact apocalypse

[naamahdarling]

nasa employee: oh hey u guys are back early

astronaut: moon’s got dinosaurs

nasa employee: what?

astronaut: *loading a pistol and getting back on the rocket-ship* moon’s got dinosaurs.

[thatdisasterauthor]

Been following this discovery since it was first announced and it is SO NEAT. Also, the people who won’t let him live down the turtle are dicks. Turtles are fucking everywhere, okay? Everywhere. Living turtles? Great! Fossil turtles? Pain in the ass.

[handweavers]

there is no better feeling than to be wholly trusted and loved by a little animal

Does anyone know what to do
