Chrissy, this is for you

Just so y’all know: I can’t speak for every other fic author but I can say that I remember when people leave me kind comments. I recognize your urls and/or usernames on AO3. I remember you and sometimes in writing my fics I think to myself, “Oh, I hope this person sees this because they liked x in this other fic I did.”

Not only that—I go back and reread comments when I’m feeling low. I look at tags and reblogs and asks and wish I could hold them in my hand like a note from a friend on an old, torn piece of notebook paper.

Your comments have so much more impact than you know. So thanks to those who use the comment section to spread love and encouragement. We appreciate you.

the line “your worst sin is that you’ve betrayed and destroyed yourself for nothing” is so raw you’d think it’s from a destiel fanfic or even hetalia but it’s actually from dostoyevskys crime and punishment

i think a society failed its youth if they feel old (derogatory) at 20

[sortablue]

perhaps a society has failed if it’s people ever feel old (derogatory) rather than old (complimentary)

[squeeful]

YOU. YOU GET IT the issue of tying youth to desirability, whether sexually or culturally, doesn’t go away when you expand what youth is youth worship isn’t just beauty standards, it’s saying that only the young have ideas or creations that have worth. that age means withering and decay. don’t expand what youth is, dismantle the idea that aging degrades your value as a human being

working out your brain is a must!!

• hydrate it by drinking lots of water

• eat dark chocolate and blueberries and walnuts and salmon and other foods high in antioxidants!!

• play little brain games on your phone; I like wordconenct! anything that makes you think!

• read books. It’s simple but necessary. Even better - join a book club, or read with a friend, so you can have discussions after. This will improve your reading comprehension.

• do puzzles - it doesnt have to be sudoku, I love playing Beat Saber on the Oculus Rift because it makes my brain have to match colorful patterns to physical movements very quickly!

• learn a new dance - even a tik tok trendy dance. Learning new dance moves are proven to strengthen synapses!!

• go bird watching, or foraging, or anything outdoors that requires you to explore pattern recognition and visual searching

• watch a movie with the intent of analysis - this is best done with a cinephile friend!! talk about tropes and symbolism and character growth

• cross stitch, or sew, or do anything that requires matching nimble hand movements to patterns

• play or learn an instrument!

• develop a consistent sleep schedule (or as close to consistent as you can get!)

• when eating, try to identify the ingredients and flavors you’re perceiving!

I hope this helps :)

I like how this went from me feeling like “hm why is this attacking me 🤨” at first, but feeling grateful seeing an added guide on a genuine expansion on a “ how to” work out the brain. This genuinely helps a bunch. People find solace in doing activities that get them through life by doing said activities of phone/tv or if that’s all they’ve ever known in their life to get them through things + etc tho. However, this was very impt to point out. Slowly beginning incorporating things to work the brain in ones own time.

I just spent the past day or so scrolling through you nalby tag and I just wanted to say thank you for feeding this starving nalby lover with high quality content :) (any nalby headcanons floating around at the moment?)

AH yes! Nalby headcanons! Haven't been in the TMR mood in a bit, so please accept my Nalby headcanon offerings:

It took them too long to get together. Like. Way too long. They were stupid in love and super unaware the other one felt that way for, like, months and months. Alby would stand outside the Maze biting his nails waiting for Newt to come back. Like. He was worried about all of the Runners. But especially Newt.

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this one before, but they're big cuddlers. Trade off being big and little spoon, sometimes no spooning is involved at all, but they just love to cuddle whenever they can.

Alby always tries to give Newt the better half of anything he has - rations, the nicer side of the blanket, the pillow that DOESN'T smell like mildew, but he will deny it if you try to make him admit it. Newt knows and will occasionally try to beat him to things first just so Alby gets a turn on the better half of a thing.

They'd daydream a lot about their future together - their family, their house, how they'd put pictures and names up on the mantle, the quilt that they'd make together, the dog they'd have. Stuff like that.

Newt talks in his sleep and it's always something really sweet that he wouldn't be caught dead saying in real life.

In different circumstances they would 110% be into cottagecore. But if there's anything even remotely like the canon stuff with WICKED no way no how (whether in a world where they both made it out alive, or in an AU) but without the trauma, they would love cottagecore.

And also road trips.

In addition, with non-canon universes: they abstain from celebrating Valentine's Day because something terrible always happens and so they make a thing of it and have their lovey dovey holiday on April 25th. Why? Because it's not too hot and all you need is a light jacket.
