TALE OF THE NINE-TAILED 1938 구미호뎐 1938 — 2023, dir. Kang Shin Hyo
Absolutely losing it over Vetinari sounding like this as he shoves Moist into a new job title 😂
this is a friendly little post to say: if you find that doing stretches for wrist/shoulders/back/whatever either 1) don't help or 2) seem to make your pain worse, then please stop doing the stretches. the answer here is not to keep doing them becuase if you push through the pain eventually it'll get better, right?
listen to me. listen. stretches never did anything for me and at age 25 i learned i had hEDS, which meant 1) most stretches would never help me 2) depending on the stretch, could hurt me, so please. if they aren't helping. please do not keep doing them hoping that they will "eventually" help.
look into whether or not you have a hypermobility disorder or EDS or smth, great resource here: www.ehlers-danlos.com
Also, fun thing I learned in PT very recently: Just because it sort of feels good while you’re doing it, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s helping. Muscles have stretch receptors and will temporarily stop hurting when stretched.
If the stretch was beneficial, it will actually produce lasting improvement. (Lasting like an hour or a few hours, at which point you need more movement.) If the reduction in pain disappears like a minute after you stop, the stretch didn’t actually improve things.
oh, useful addition! thank you
I’m sure Varka’s expedition is going to be full of ✨important plot✨ but also it makes me laugh every time I remember it bc I know Kaeya will have to listen to this man rant about it
Varka, bursting into Mondstat: guys you won’t beLIEVE what we found on the expedition—
Kaeya, catching the apples the sister of the abyss prince is tossing him from her perch halfway up the tree, while supervising Klee exploding the lake, while deciding that Venti’s music, while divine, is quite nice actually: try me
when i first started posting about the reborn au, i must have gotten 10+ asks about minato/kushina/kakashi/jiraiya's reaction to tori's icha icha theories. and i never replied because i couldn't think of anything i thought was sufficiently funny/interesting. until now
kushina: aren't you a little young to be reading that?
tori: if i'm old enough to kill, i'm old enough to read porn, aren't i?
kushina: i guess........
tori, feeling mischievous: hey, you know jiraiya, right?
kushina: oh, yes!
tori: (debating best way to ask if kushina has noticed satsuki is TOTALLY orochimaru)
kushina, proudly: fuyuko-chan is totally based on me, you know!!!!!!!
tori: (drops her book)
tori: new goal. i want an icha icha character based on me!
kushina: omg yes!!
minato, later: wait, no-- sensei wouldn't--- you're fourteen?!
tori, with full confidence: that won't stop him!
minato: (no fear) (that actually might not stop him) (ONE FEAR)
kushina, aware good chunk of the actual text is silly adventure and assuming jiraiya would just make a non-sexy character because SURELY he knows kushina would personally rip his balls off and fry them in hot oil in front of him: :DDD
“denied the catharsis of punishment” is an underappreciated but hugely effective narrative consequence imo
Excellent Point
Image description: "Reflecting on it, the reason I think the OceanGate situation has become such a flashpoint for anger is because it's such a perfect microcosm of the problem with everything right now. Decisions are not made based on safety, reasonable caution, or concern for human life. Every decision is instead made from a default assumption of what if the bad thing just DIDN'T happen?' We are given pie-in-the-sky promises and sizzle reels and an endless PR hype-cycle for every new innovation and inevitably it fails to work, harms people, and then is maybe barely apologized for before the next bad idea comes down the pike. OceanGate's underengineered, undercooked, doomed submarine isn't merely a metaphor for the hubris of the wealthy, it is a scale model of the way the wealthy dictate our reality. All consequences can be ignored, all blowback can be forestalled, let the end-user eat the cost. I am not angry because the submarine was badly-made. I am angry because I live in a vastly larger pressure vessel being managed and maintained by the exact same people.
Latino trans man in need of help.
My paycheck is $350 and I have $200 saved in cash. So I'm heading into July with $550, which is $250 short of rent.
If anyone wants to help a disabled FTM Latino who lost two jobs in the past two months (one due to workplace transphobia and the other due to management incompetence). Maybe consider throwing some spare change my way? The rent is due on the 5th.
You can help by purchasing something from my Gumroad, where I publish queer poetry volumes.
Or you can donate directly to me through Cash.app. $NicoBowie
I do not have a Paypal or a Venmo.
If you're unable to help monetarily, please consider reblogging this post.
P.S. - A note to followers, I do not have internet access right now, as I owe my internet provider roughly $300 and they have cut off my services. Thus, I am posting from the library. So, I will not be super active on here but will check in every once in a while and maybe queue up some posts. It may be a month or two until I can afford to get my internet turned back on.
The duality of "If you even imply that being aro or ace condemns someone to a sad and lonely life I will fucking fight you"
and
"being aro and ace is the most isolating thing I will ever experience"
i think the tags are important
Anyway adults saying “I don’t know isn’t an answer” is part of the reason I learned to lie and bluff so well.
logical-crow
Really though, what was that about? I don’t know is a valid answer. It communicates very clearly that the child cannot answer your question, and therefore maybe needs more help understanding the question/situation. Why do you try and push them to give an answer they don’t have? That stresses them out and it makes them feel like they’re being punished for not knowing something.
i thought i was the only one with an “i don’t know” problem because my parents made it seem it was the strangest and also most horrible thing in the world. i genuinely didn’t know and they got angry and that only blocked my thoughts more which meant i didn’t know the answer to anything else.

Also “I don’t know” is a commonly used sentence for children with ADHD/Autism. We DON’T know why we can’t do our homework. We DON’T know why we can’t eat certain foods sometimes. We DON’T know why we forgot to do a chore. It’s really distressing when you genuinely don’t know and people think you’re just lying or indifferent
She's babygirl she's a grumpy old man she's a wanted woman she's creepy and wet she's cursed by the gods she's terrible to intern for she's an enemy of the state... i didn't use her name but she popped into your head didn't she
normal vs disordered: fatigue edition
normal: feeling tired at the end of a long day
not normal: feeling tired regardless of what you’ve done that day
normal: waking up tired every now and then due to stress or lack of sleep
not normal: waking up tired most mornings
normal: getting a little tired after standing for long periods of time
not normal: not being able to stand for very long without tiring out. being stood up drains your energy
normal: being tired more often during times of peak stress and lack of sleep, but otherwise fine
not normal: being tired/exhausted consistently for over 6 months
normal: melting into the sofa after a long day, and then struggling a little to get up
not normal: being too exhausted to move, to eat, to talk, or to do anything a person might be expected to do in an evening
normal: not liking to get out of bed in the morning
not normal: having mornings where you physically cannot get out of bed, or struggle greatly to get out of bed
the key thing is that it is not normal for you to spend most of your time being too tired to do daily tasks, and it is not normal to exist in a constant state of exhaustion. if possible, you should seek help if you’ve been experiencing fatigue for a while
Everyone's so upset about what's going on on my normal and functional space ship.
Excellent you can join ranks with that one doctor who this story made late for surgery
Read about my normal and functional spaceship to absolutely destroy your sleep schedule
This happened to me with their (now finished) serial novel Curse Words, and then their (currently unfinished) story Charlie MacNamara, Galactic Ace when I caught up to Curse Words while it was still in progress.
Simply put, it’s just a thing that happens when it comes to reading Derin’s stories.
I've been reliably informed by many, many readers that these stories are specifically crack for ADHD people who usually have difficulty reading and I HAVE NO IDEA WHY. That's such a random demographic.
Look it happens
Do you have to do surgery tomorrow? No? Then how bad could it be to start reading.
#me watching horror movies: noooo why would you open the door covered in warnings not to do that!#me reading thos blog post: I should start reading time to orbit
You should do it, nothing will go wrong. You are the master of your sleep schedule and will get plenty of rest. It'll be fine.
#I am one sentence in and my suspected adhd brain started to fucking. VIBRATE#what the FUCK#I am so happy and am going to get a normal amount of sleep tonight
Ahaha yes another one
Join the ADHD Reader Army
Congratulations, you did invent time travel after all! Unfortunately, instead of the Soviet moon conspiracy thing, all it’s good for is warping your readers several hours into the future.
... I'll take it.
#what the fuck#started reading and this took the better part of yesterday's workday and many hours of night and almost all of today's workday#jesus fucking christ DO NOT START THIS IF U HAVE SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO DO IN THE NEXT 48 HOURS
Counterpoint: reading this story is the important thing you have to do in the next 48 hours.
It's ok, that other thing can wait.
Just a couple of chapters to see what it's like, then you can stop and do the other thing.
It'll be fine.
#um hi oh my fucking gods this is true#I started reading at 9 am and then just kept reading and reading#and then suddenly it's 1 pm except it's the next day. whoopsie?
This is the funniest one yet STOP AND EAT SOMETHING
Happy Eid ul-Adha(or Bakrid, or Eid Mubarak) to any people of the Muslim faith this year! This is for 6/29/2023
