That's An Attractive Man Gurgle You Got There

🌻BE KIND FIRST AND FOREMOST🌻 Christian. I love gothic literature. I rotate fandoms so don’t follow for consistency. Currently run the Dracula Novel Fans community and the Librarians Fans community.

disabled ppl we need to start lying to nosy people okay? you tell me i'm too young to need a cane and i will tell you point blank that maybe you should tell that to the guy who ran me over. you don't get an explanation of my health issues you get lies and depending on how much of an asshole i want to be that lie will be anything from a humble car crash to a 1 billion lions attack. mind yr business.

[infectiouspiss]

"i could never live like that" well maybe you'll have to because this happened overnight. yeah you heard me i was the most able bodied man in the world but then one morning bam i woke up disabled. yeah you could have that too. there's no cure either you'll just wake up one morning and now you have to live like me

[infectiouspiss]

"what happened" well have you ever seen looney tunes? yeah an anvil landed on me and squished me flat.

auto immune disorders happen when the immune system ignores regulatory factors and begins attacking healthy bodily tissues, due to what scientists refer to as "sheer love of the game"

I need non-librarians to understand that this is not a celebratory counter. It's a plea for help.

my mom taught me the therapeutic power of cleaning. open all the windows. throw out the old. wipe down the entire house. burn some incense. roast some coffee. then rest. that way the tears from last night don’t feel as heavy. 

[umushingwe]

She just wanted you to clean the house

[plants-andgames-deactivated2021]

No it’s actually been studied and proven that for people with anxiety and depression that it’s really good for us it gives us a sense of control, setting, and being well grounded. It allows to make a new place out of the old and is really relaxing

[mysticorset]

It is such a catch-22, that cleaning when you are depressed (and likely less able to gather the executive functioning to do so) also alleviates it. After having a good clean, I always feel more in control and less stressed. It’s the getting started that is the hardest part. The good news is, even a tiny bit of cleaning has a positive effect, so start with what you can manage.

[ariverofmilk-deactivated2019041]

Even if you just clean up the immediate area around you, even if you clean a little at a time or spaced out over days, you’ll feel lighter.

[thedemonsurfer]

This!!

Even if all you can do is put three dishes in the dishwasher, or move the dirty laundry pile to outside the laundry door, or throw out that box of leftovers that have been sitting in the fridge for 2 weeks

it counts.

[robinontherun]

My therapy professor always gets his patients to just wipe the bathroom mirror when they’re feeling that way. Just the mirror, nothing more. But then by the time his patients are done with the mirror, most of them report “well, I was already in the bathroom, so I did the sink and tub too.” And before they know it, they’ve cleaned an entire bathroom.

[wishful-thinkment]

My therapist once told me that, every day, I should try and do at least one thing that I either enjoyed, or gave me a sense of mastery. And honestly, the enjoyment thing can kind of seem overrated, especially when you feel like crap, but the mastery thing? Doing laundry or taking out the trash or whatever else I can bring myself to accomplish?

Holy shit, man… it’s /good/

[illogical-bullshit]

This stuff saved my ass back when I had depression. Vacuuming the room, spraying some febreze shit and wiping some countertops works wonders.

tiny baby steps are helpful

do what you can, forgive yourself for what you can’t, and challenge yourself to do better tomorrow (and it’s okay to fail at this; just try again the next tomorrow)

Can you win against your pfp/icon in a fight (in the sense of asking which one is physically stronger)? Assume you both have the drive and the motivation to fight eachother, and both of you are unarmed (unless your pfp explicitly shows them with a weapon, or they physically cannot survive without their weapon).

I can easily win against them with no issues

I can win against them, but it wouldn’t exactly be instantaneous

I can most likely win against them, but I would be struggling

I can juuuust barely beat them in a fight

We tie

They will win against me, but it would be a very close match

They will win against me, but they would be struggling

They will win, but at least I would have survived the first few moments

They can easily win against me with zero issues

I can’t imagine my pfp in a fight*

Infinite many nuance

*Not being able to conceptualize the idea of what a fight against your pfp would even look like, e.g. if your pfp is just a solid blue circle with no inherent meaning behind it

Is this a regular fight or a fight to the death? I don’t know, but odds are it wouldn’t make much of a difference
