Whenever I get sad I think about older Meg getting to go on fun adventures with her unicorn and then I'm not sad anymore.

Ok so this post is extremely long and I put it all together for my blogs Feeling sad page but as I don’t have a huge amount of followers I realize so many people are not seeing this information so I’m posting it here too!

alternatives without harming yourself:

holding/squeezing ice.

splashing your face with water.

getting a rubber band and snapping it against your skin (this could hurt, though it’s better than other ways that people usually choose to self-harm).

take a hot shower or bath.

eat something sour. it will take your mind of the urge. (lemon, sour lollies)

massage where you want to self-harm.

get a red pen or red paint and draw/paint over where you usually self-harm.

remind yourself as to why you shouldn’t do it. (scars, harms organs, leave memories etc…)

describe what you are feeling. (is the urge/pain in your chest, fists, legs, arms, head).

killing yourself will not help. it is not a solution.

you have your whole life ahead of you. you have so many more years that you can accomplish things in. for example;

having a family.

getting married.

to watch the sun rise.

to watch the sun set.

to save someone else’s life.

finish school.

get your dream job.

to laugh.

to smile.

to go camping.

travel to new places.

to wake up every morning to the person you love.

friends.

family.

to keep that promise you made.

to accomplish a goal.

to meet your idol.

to listen to new music.

theme parks.

video games.

chocolate.

to be able to look back and say “i made it”.

what you’re going through is temporary.

in case you need to hear this:

you are loved.

you are wanted.

you are needed.

you are beautiful.

you are handsome.

you are important.

you are not alone.

you are okay.

you are strong.

you are worth it.

you are smart.

you are not a failure.

you are useful.

you are going to be okay.

NOTICE FOR PSYCHOTIC PEOPLES LIKE ME AND THE NEW TOMODACHI LIFE: Please please pretty pretty please be careful while playing Living the Dream, esp if you’re currently unmedicated!!!

The game treats the Miis like they’re real people and makes zero mention ever that they are not, and only ever refers to them and their POV as if they are real and you are their caretaker! While playing this honestly messed with my head pretty badly at times and made me worry a lot on if I was hurting real people/not doing enough for real people while I was playing!

I cannot imagine how much worse this would be for someone who’s unmedicated, non-dormant, or experiencing breakthrough symptoms! Do please be careful and PLEASE remember to have a way to reality check yourself while playing the game!!!

Also: If you’re not psychotic, please reblog this anyway!!! It may not seem like a big deal to you but these kinds of things are REALLY important to know for us psychotic folk in a world that is both hostile and negligent to us and our needs!!!

[seeyouonsaturn]

This doesn't affect me, but there's a possible scene in that dream where the miis have a conversation with a lamp where they say something that breaks the fourth wall (I don't remember what exactly), there's a brief moment of silence, and then suddenly the mii whips their head up to look directly "at you", then the dream ends. And while to me personally this was a funny "oh shit he can see me lol" moment, I did very much also immediately think that this is gonna fuck someone up.

Be careful about the lamp dream if you're sensitive about this stuff. Possibly skip it just to be safe

[madnessofmen]

Kind of obsessed with this woman's freakishly modern jacket from 1904.

The complete lack of shoulder definition gives it the silhouette of an MA-1 bomber jacket, but bombers weren't even a thing yet. The Wright brothers barely achieved powered flight in 1903. The ribbing on the shoulder and the angular cutouts with the hexagonal mesh are so futuristic and cyberpunk, but even art deco wouldn't be a thing for another 15 years. The color is like a dusty NASA flight suit. All together it's giving lone spacefarer crash landing their tiny rustbucket ship on Mars.

Truly a visionary of her time.

[urhella-gaychloe]

LMAOOOOOO

[fernacular]

Okay but for anyone who legit wants to know how to calculate it correctly:

The elbow joint on average rests a couple inches higher than the navel, so if you measure how long the distance is from the middle of the shoulder to that point then you have the length of the upper and fore arms!

[fernacular]

So if anyone’s wondering about legs too, the simplest rule of thumb is that the length from the top of the leg to the knee is equal to the distance between the top of the leg and the bottom of the pectorals:

And I wanna stress that when i say “top of the leg” i’m not talking about the crotch (please don’t flag me tumblr it’s an anatomical term) i’m talking about the point where the femur connects to the pelvis, which is higher up on the hips:

It’s easier to see what I’m talking about in this photo of a man squatting: 

So yeah if you use that measurement when using this technique you should get fairly realistically proportioned legs:

But remember! messing with proportions is an important and fun part of character design! Know the rules first so you can then break them however you please!

do you want to play tomodachi life but don't have a switch, $60, or just don't want to pay nintendo $60?

here's an all-in-one site where you can download everything you need to emulate it!

Floralith beta — downloads and setup.

also, with an emulator, you can directly screenshot and record your game, and even mod it! add custom hair parts! import photos directly! remove region locks! emulate it!!

edit: the creator of the site, @blorblegoop, has created their own post about it, explaining who they are, addressing security concerns, and helping out with some common problems from the notes! please see their post if you have any further questions :)

everything?

everything! this site will walk you through downloading the ryujinx switch emulator, the firmware and keys needed, and the nsp game file for tomodachi life ltd.

is this safe?

the files are all directly downloaded from this site, so there's no third party to worry about. i didn't make this site - it was created by @blorblegoop , who recently contacted me with this post on their blog addressing security concerns. they scan all the files themself before hosting. i scanned my own pc after downloading as well, and it all came up clean! but it’s good to be aware of pc safety, especially when pirating. it can’t hurt to do your own scan to be sure!

how much pc knowledge do i need for this?

you should know how to download files, how to make and manage folders in file explorer, and how to navigate a program's settings menu.

any settings i should change in ryujinx?

here's some i recommend checking before starting the game:

for tomodachi life specifically, make sure you set a timezone in settings! you can have it match your pc's time for simplicity.

there are ostensibly keyboard controls, but they're a little wonky to figure out. if you can, plugging in any controller should work just fine. just make sure to select it in ryujinx's input settings! (you should also still be able to use your mouse for things like drawing facepaint!)

graphics settings will be on a per-pc basis, depending on your pc's strength. it's worth it to experiment with them and see what gives you the best performance. ryujinx will explain what each setting does if you hover over it!

the game crashed?

that's very likely to happen! on first time loading a scene, the emulator can sometimes struggle. it happened to me the first time i opened the mii editor, and the first time i opened the news station. you should be able to relaunch and everything will be fine. if it's happening super frequently, though, you may need to adjust your graphics or cpu settings!

a sixth thing i didn't think of?

check out this post by the site’s creator, where they go into some common issues from the notes and provide some solutions!

if you still have issues, feel free to leave a reblog with comment or send me an ask! if you need more specific guidance, i'll be happy to help! i'm not an expert on emulation, but if nothing else, i can try to point you towards a reddit thread that is more competent than i am

i hope you have fun playing the game! i did not create this site, but i found the creator in a single reddit thread asking people to spread the word, so i figured i'd do what i can and make this post. if it works for you, please help out and spread the word even further, and support the original creator of floralith! thank you!!

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

rereading 17776 and thinking about adapting into into a play and how it would FUCK

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

I have started a google doc we are too far in boys

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

Guys I just emailed Jon Bois about getting his permission to put on a production of my adaptation for my senior capstone

what the fuck

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

HE SAID YES IM GONNA EXPLODE HOLY SHIT

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

I’m on page 140 of the script and chapter 23 of the actual work

I have one actor that will most likely end up playing Nine (though I want them as Ten more, but the way the people I have works out they’re the only nonbinary actor I’ve got atm) and two others in mind for Ten and JUICE but I need to ask them if they want to lol

I’ve started a list of potential actors for the ensemble, but I need to make a tracking sheet of characters to make a track sheet for actors to see how many I’ll need

I also need to get permission from the planetarium (it’s literally just emailing my boss, and yet) to solidify dates, but it’ll likely be in November!

There are two whole songs in the preshow playlist so far, only one of which is Steely Dan

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

Omg hey so it’s like midterms

Planetarium didn’t work out (alas we’re very busy this semester) but that’s okay! I can still do the show in other places :)

I also have all my actors!! I have 8, which is the bare minimum number you need for the show

It’s gonna end up being a staged reading and not a full production, which is a little bit of a shame but also is probably for the better tbh because right now our department doesn’t have our usual building and we’re in a bunch of in between spaces across at least three buildings, so having this be smaller makes things easier :)

Also it’s October 18th which feels scary

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

The final draft is 156 pages. I HAVE to make cuts but I’m struggling with what to keep/cut and AUGH

I currently have a 79 page cut and a 99 page cut, but I can’t tell if I’ve cut too much of the context of the world or not

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

I cut it to 111 pages! I did have to trim some bits and completely take out garbage football, ed and tim, and the jason/emily nyc phone call which makes me SO sad but alas. It also makes some of the videos a little tricky but I’m working on splicing them together

I also will be recording the show!! If all of the actors are okay with it, then I’ll post it, likely on YouTube or something!

I’m gonna invite Jon Bois, tho I highly doubt he’ll actually show up just bc he’s a busy guy and also because It’s In Three Days

[wilhelmina-murray-harker]

HELLO HERE IS THE LINK!!! I meant to post it sooner but, uh, college busy. However, today is the perfect day to do so! Enjoy forever :)
