most reblogs are queued, my queue is 10 posts a day (not always filled though) and set to 24 hrs—so no, i’m not awake at 4 in the morning every day, i promise 😭
i am a queer ethnic jew, and i am israeli american. no i don’t support displacing, hurting, or killing anyone. however i do support you shutting the fuck up if all you're gonna do is lie about me and my beliefs
not all of my posts on this blog have to do with israel, but being israeli is an intrinsic part of who i am. if you don’t like it, don’t interact. i’d just appreciate it if you’d hate me in silence and keep it off my blog. thanks <3
i am a proshipper. if your immediate reaction to that is thinking i’m horrible, i highly recommend taking a look at this. ship and let ship
this is my main blog! i have a few others, i’ll make like a master doc or smth at some point

Something neuroscience-y that helps with prose: attention is selective. A character will not notice everything in a room. They will notice what matters to their goal, fear, desire, training, wound, or obsession. A jealous character notices hands. a hungry character notices food. A soldier notices exits. A lonely character notices pairs. Description becomes character when attention has a bias.

(if I could tag them I would but idk if that works on here)
This is important to reblog for yourself too, not just for others to see it. You never know when something could come up and if you need help it’s right there on your blog
I HATE the narrative “they’re just jealous” that people tell their kids when they get bullied. Like sure, sometimes they are jealous. But if the bully is calling them ugly or something like that, then it’s just Beauty standards being absorbed by the children from their parents and other influences most of the time. They aren’t jealous of your kids unibrow, I would know. (It was once me) And kids can understand that. People underestimate the complexity of things kids can understand.
Another silly ass low effort phm comic bc I keep thinking of this post and just cracking up at the mirror pronouns also being another level of codependency. Rocky and his bestie.
i fucking hate the “this is the good luck post.” Girl stop contributing to a superstitious environment with ur anecdotes there’s a million goddamn notes on it it’s statistically reasonable that a bunch of people remember the good things that happen after they reblog it
It's very important to me that they are life size status. Rocky and adrian took the care to make sure they are just right and would last forever. there is one sat at the beach near his house in the biodome and another where he used to teach. They play old audio recordings so pebbles can still learn from the man long after he was gone.
we as a society have GOT to accept that it is okay if we get blocked. you do not have the right to interact with every single person on the internet. "but then i can't interact with their content" yes that is the point "but i didn't do anything" no one owes you an explanation and you don't have to have "done something" to be blocked. let it go
At the end of the day, blocking is honestly a basic human right tied straight to our free will. Everyone deserves the freedom to choose who gets access to their energy and peace of mind.
If we can't control who we interact with online, we don't really have control over our own digital lives anyway.
I will be transparent and say that I would get anxiety and wonder “What did I do wrong?” Whenever I was blocked, but I learnt that it’s ok and I don’t need an explanation. Now I block if I feel I don’t align with someone, just to keep my mental health safe and keep my peace of mind.
it’s a random, idle day. the news are playing on the tv in the background while you do whatever task it may be—housework, doodling, reading. you’re only half-listening to the tv, when suddenly you hear a reporter say your last name.
“what is the petrova line?”
now it has your attention. you listen as a reporter explains that there’s a line of infrared light, spanning from the sun to venus, spotted by radio telescope hobbyist— irina petrova??
your daughter (who you had been begging to get a real job—and no, being a science youtuber doesn’t count), had just discovered something fascinating. you call her immediately, of course—“irina, did you see the news? you’re on the news!!”—but you know nothing of what’s to come.
within a few months’ time, you encounter your last name out in the world at least once nearly every day. in a few years, it’s every other word out of anyone important’s mouth.
it gets annoying, but you’re kind of glad your daughter didn’t listen to you. a real job wouldn’t have made her name the most spoken word on the planet in the span of just four years.
I think there's a great chance the existence of mirrors/reflective surfaces silently fucks Rocky up.
Like, Grace is in the bathroom, shaving, the curtain pulled to the side and suddenly he stops and says "stop touching my stuff". Rocky, frozen, somewhere behind him, can't fathom how Grace sensed that. He was so quiet. The razor is so loud. Grace's still facing away from him. What the fuck.
Grace repairing some panel or other and asks for a tool. Without even turning around, he says "no, not that one, the one to its left". Rocky's like are you shitting me. I know for a fact your hearing is ass. You can only see in one direction and I'm not in it!! What?!
