Oh-sturg - Fish Want Me.

I’m sorry, I have to block users for every blog I have?? So I have to block the same person twice???? Why

Brown eyes appreciation post!!!!

Brown eyes are awesome. They have variety and beauty. Any other colour I feel is overdone in human/humanoid character designs and, as much as it might break up the palette, brown can have SO much variety!

Brown can be yellow or red, deep or pale, piercing or soft. Use brown eyes more for your characters!!!

Based on (what is about to become) a true story

So remember that brick oven bus I posted about here, anyways my parents surprised me by taking me there

Turns out they are not putting children in the oven , it was pizza

- An SUV kicking up dirt across farmland

- The therapy llamas down the county road into work

- Swans!!

- Gus, the dog across the street that always lets me pet him.

- Brontë, the neighbour’s dog from the old neighbourhood. She always pees when she sees me

- The protestors above the bridge on my way home that carry a sign that says “STOP THE GENOCIDE” and “CEASEFIRE ON CHILDREN” on the opposite side. I honk at them, and they wave to me

- The cars lined down the street during county fair season

- Kids catching minnows with their bare hands at the lake

Things I Like Here.

So I moved from my childhood state a few years ago and I’ve been struggling with adjusting ever since, largely because of the drastic negative change in my social life. But life is beautiful, so I wanted to make a list of things I’ve seen since moving here that I couldn’t get back home! You have to appreciate the little things in life. I’m gonna periodically add more as I see them

- “The Oven Bus” which is just a bus with a brick chimney in it. I wanna know what’s going on in there so badly

- All of the sunsets here are beautiful without fail. Don’t matter what time they happen, even if it’s at 4, it’s beautiful. There’s so many colours in them

- The sign I drive past on the way to work that says “WALTZ IS FOR MURDERING THE UNBORN.” I don’t agree with it but it’s fucking hilarious to see, because it’s in the middle of nowhere

- Related, since we live out in the country now, the pro-life religious bulletins that have the most CGI looking babies on them. Like that baby is not real. Honey

- I almost got into an accident once because there are so many dogs down a 55 MPH road that I just kept looking at the dogs

- The church that has six doors outside on their lawn that say “GOD’S DOORS ARE OPEN TO ALL”

- The church that has a progress flag on its flag post and a BLM flag flying under it. I went there once and it’s full of old people. They were so kind. I want to go back there again

- The kind lady at the Chinese takeout restaurant down the road from us who stayed when the restaurant was empty so I could pick up my order. I wanted my brother to get it but he bailed last minute

- The grocery store down the street that my family has wildly different pronunciations of. It’s within walking distance. I’ve never had that before

- The man today who accidentally bought two tickets for himself. Instead of refunding one, he wanted to give away the other one for free

- The mall Santa I see around Christmas time when he’s on his break. Just walking around. High socks and shorts with a Christmas theme, he’s great

- The little girl yesterday who told me she would get a dog and a fish. When I asked her what she would name the dog, she said “Rainbow Pup”

- The parents who use they/them to refer to me. Even though I personally don’t use those pronouns and don’t like them when they’re used in reference to me, it’s a sign of progress

- The little girl whose parents I sold an annual pass to. I’ve seen her four times. She recognizes me each time and runs to give me a hug

- The toddler who tried to hand me her half-eaten cinnamon-dusted timbit when I asked her for a high five

- The kind people at KwikTrip who never look like they don’t want to be there

- My supervisor who shrieks whenever he walks by me because that’s how I greet people so he’s started greeting me like that as well. He’s an absolute truck of a man who looks like Thor

I can’t believe I asked @emmsiplier to add Ghost to their household so Seven wouldn’t be lonely and he immediately started grilling and then set the grill on fire

Scream this is iconic….

I hate it when people who don’t take a certain medication/don’t have the same disorder you do try and police how you describe how it feels when you don’t take your medication.

I take a heightened dose of a certain medication for depression. When I forget it even for a day, I notice it. My brain physically feels like jelly and every time I move my head too fast, it feels like I’m going to fall over. I’m aware of the physical space my eyes take up. It’s awful, and that’s just if I forget it in the morning- the rest of my day ends up like that.

I tried to explain it to my mom once, describing it as “I’m experiencing what feels like withdrawal symptoms from my meds because I forgot to take it this morning, it feels terrible lmao.” And then she told me that it couldn’t be that bad, that it wasn’t withdrawal, and that I shouldn’t talk about it that way (at least, that’s what it felt like she told me). Meanwhile I’m sitting there like, I’m sorry, are you taking my medication too? Are you diagnosed and being treated the exact same way I am? No? Then how can you tell what it feels like?

It’s so diminishing to me. I’m trying to talk about the struggle and I’m silenced by the whole “it can’t be that bad” sentence like??

Again, that’s how it felt. That’s probably not what she intended, but now I don’t feel like I can ever talk about it with her again

Okay so I need to reblog because I HAVE to share this story

But when I was in Socorro, one night the chef cooked pasta salad. I’m a picky eater with texture issues, and the crew knew this. I had only been really eating bread for dinner up until this point, and I LOVE pasta. I was super excited!!

They had rotini, which I love, penne, which I hate, and what looked to be spaghetti, which I also love. The crew hostess, a lovely woman named Anie, said that there was still pasta left that was completely plain. Garnish free. Which is the only kind of pasta I eat. I thanked her endlessly, she just needed to know what kind I wanted

I went for rotini, only for her to tell me that there was none left. That’s fine, I could take the spaghetti. I took my seat at the dining booth and she gave me my plate of spaghetti

Only it wasn’t spaghetti

You know how spaghetti is cylindrical? When you look at an uncooked strand from above, it’s a circle. It was NOT CIRCLE SHAPED!! It was shaped like an X?? It was tubular like spaghetti, and yet it wasn’t. Circular?

I cannot find the name of this noodle to save my LIFE. I didn’t even notice it at first, instead just slurping it in my mouth. Yeah. I ate bread that night

curious to hear y'all's suggestions for the worst possible pasta shape

(Assume that "pasta" needs to be made of sheets or strands of dough with enough surface area relative to thickness so that they can be cooked.)

I genuinely can't stand pop psychology I'm not an expert on this stuff but the damage it has done to the general public's understanding of mental health and psychology must be notable. People with low empathy are evil. NPD is The Abuser Disorder. here's how your partner is subconsciously manipulating you. OCD is when you like cleaning. If you ask him a question and he looks away for one second he's lying to you and abusing you. Follow for more dark psychology tips. Letting my intrusive thoughts win and dyeing my hair. I thought this guy was into me I'm so delulu. Anyone who comes to you with their problems is traumadumping and abusive. Anyone who gives you gifts is lovebombing and abusive. Being neurodivergent means Liking Things. Neurotypicals don't like things. They are empty shells without feelings. Neurodivergent means ADHD or ASD. What, BPD? Schizophrenia?? That's not very quirky or fun. And that's what neurodivergent means. That's just weird. Being mentally ill isn't an excuse to be weird. Only Evil People manipulate and abuse. There are certain people who Are Evil by nature (people with NPD) and they Will abuse you. Loving someone means it's impossible to abuse them only Evil People Who Hate You are abusive. Have I mentioned that people with NPD are evil. I really want to drive that home
