I think so many people are so deeply alienated from themselves that they have no clue how to exercise their free will and autonomy. For some, this alienation runs so deep that they are afraid of their own autonomy and humanity. It is completely understandable why one would have those feelings, but it can be worrisome.
I want to help others who feel this way, so here are small things I have done to exercise my free will:
Add "guilty pleasure" songs to playlists and actually listen to them (I have a ton of late 1990s-early 2000s music I listen to now proudly that I never listened to in the past out of shame)
Getting the décor item, bath set, bed spread, ect. in the patterns you like, even if it's "childish" (I got a dinosaur-themed wastebasket from the kids' décor section and I adore it)
Taking a new route to get to a place you go to often
Eat dessert first
Celebrate well, and often
Collect things that are "odd" or don't seem like an "acceptable" thing to collect (somebody on my "for you" page collects dandelion crayola crayons and it was so cool!!!!!!)
Incorporate one new piece in an outfit you wear frequently (e.g., a new chain, a necklace, ribbons, bracelets, ect.). Challenge yourself to add onto the outfits if you feel up for it.
Sing along to songs without worrying that you sound "good" or your intonation is completely accurate
Read a book from a genre you weren't allowed to read as a kid (comics, thrillers, mysteries, anything!)
Walk without having a specific destination or goal
Pick up a new craft without expecting yourself to master it or to ever be "good" enough. Get your hands messy.
I don't want to shame anybody for not feeling as though they have free will or that they are exempt from exercising it. However, I wanted to give ideas so that you might read this list and find your own ways to express your intrinsic autonomy and will. You deserve to be a person, to feel alive, not just living. That is what our lives are for.
#mental health#mental health support#positivity#if anybody has ideas of their own definitely include them!#i just think being stuck with this feeling that you don't have autonomy and that you ultimately aren't an equal person or a person at all..#...in comparison to other people can be a really troubling and dangerous place to be in...#...and that isn't the person's fault for feeling that way. they didn't pluck those thoughts out of thin air...#...like i have felt that exact way all my LIFE because i have been abused for. probably 2/3s of my life...#...only within these past few years have i even FELT alive. frankly it's going to take a while to repair what i have been left with...#...so i know the feeling and i want to help others feel even a LITTLE bit alive. you deserve it...#...you deserve to take in a deep breath before slowly realizing 'oh my gd this is what it feels like to be alive' and SMILE about it#i want that for you even if it is brief. even if it is small. even if it is a whisper. i want you to feel alive#unironically getting rid of the idea of 'guilty pleasures' has made my life SO much better

so pixies regularly try to take over fairyworld is timmy on the pixie side?
At first, Timmy was adamantly against the Pixies. He'd tell Jorgen every time he got a notice of their plans to take over Fairyworld, and work to stop it! But it gets a bit harder to resist against your own court the longer you hang out with them.
In the present time, Timmy schedules to be out of FairyWorld during their takeovers. He doesn't try to stop them, but also refuses to be anywhere near when it happens.
He... doesn't like how he's slowly starting to cheer for them. Or how their arguments are becoming more convincing. Or how he's struggling to recall why he was so against them to begin with.
There will come a point where he becomes an active participant. Timmy worries that it's coming sooner than he'd like.
Bitties Series: [Start] > [Previous] > [Next]
#fairly oddparents#fop#fop a new wish#fop timmy turner#fop timmy#timmy turner#asks#itty bitties fop au#AJHEHEHEHEH#timmy's happy that hp never ever tries to convince him to take part#hp knows timmy's antagonistic against him and knows going to timmy would just ruin their plans#but oughghg.#sanderson has such GOOD arguments.#taking over fairyworld means not working in the office....#you get paid time off....#....the more you participate the bigger the payout bonus after.........#the only reason timmy doesnt bother fighting against them anymore is because he knows theyll fail#there has never been a successful take over#at this point its a bit like playing snip the tail#just a way for the pixies to relieve stress and let their voices be heard#or at least that's how he tries to reason it to himself#also if ur wondering where he goes when hes not allowed on earth#timmy goes to anti-fairy world and hangs out with his anti relatives#well its more like doing chores for them and being their busboy but like!!!#better than being in fairyworld and feeling conflict between your instincts and your family!!!!!

WE ARE | EP16
#we are#we are the series#we are series#tanfang#aou thanaboon#aouboom#boom tharatorn#my edits#weareedit#AOUBOOM MAIN LEADS WHEN???#i do appreciate them and the way they’ve been portraying tanfang#i know tan was a bit over the top 99% of the time#but every scene and touch felt so genuine#and i’m not gonna credit that to new#bc he wasn’t able to direct ppw in a way that didn’t make their kisses look a bit awkward#i know scenes have to look aesthetically pleasing in some way#and that’s why we keep having to deal the ‘no one would kiss with this much space for jesus between each other’ complaints#but like look at aouboom here#this is mostly them and their acting choices in my humble opinion#and don’t get me started on the pecks#ppw BARELY touched the other one’s lips when they had to do a peck kiss#like cmon the difference between ppw and aouboom pecks is insane#i’m sorry for picking on ppw but i’m a bit sad that some of their romantic scenes were a bit lackluster#especially that very last kiss which tbh i rather wouldn’t have seen bc it felt a bit awkward to me#but that may be just me#i need new to get a bit more frisky with kiss scenes when it comes to his directing#bc i feel like friskier kiss scenes only happen when the actors mostly do their thing after finding out what the director wants#(maybe i’m completely wrong about new but tkdkfdkddkdk)#and don’t get me wrong idgaf if there are kisses or not but if there’s a kiss scene you should commit instead of holding yourself back idk#and ppw definitely need a better director to help them achieve that bc jojo was definitely better at directing them

man it´s so easy to talk shit about how other people "don´t train their dogs" if you never worked with a hard to train dog
#that goes both for “stubborn” dogs and dogs who just struggle emotionally#leon is a bit of both.he can get so stubborn and distracted#but at the same time oh boy does he have some strong emotions and expresses them loudly and chaotically#our trainer keeps reassuring me that he´s gotten a lot better and i know but that doesn´t stop random ass people from acting like i#never even tried training him.

Hey, saw that you're having a bit of rough day. :(
I'm almost finished the next part.
But, would you like Prowl to bully "the wet bread moron" Josh? (as a treat. there's a part I could slide it in) Like a little petty revenge like get back at people being jerks to orcas?
-GLC
Oh I would absolutely love that yes🥺👉👈
#Prowl deserves that#especially since they all keep expecting him to behave like a crazy scared horse/j#I was spending a lot of time watching videos and reading articles about wild and captive orcas#sorry it's a bit unrelated just don't mind the tags kflgmdbd#yeah so. I remember going to aquarium a bunch of years ago and seeing those performances#I was absolutely AMAZED by orcas because as a kid I was kinda obsessed with them haha#watched a lot of documentaries. all about wild orcas#so shortly after I went to the aquarium I tried to look for their stuff on the internet. some recordings and photos and names of the animals#there were A LOT of people SCREAMING around that content. Telling everyone that those animals are abused and suffering#-and shouldn't be held captive. Calling the aquarium “the orca prison” and stuff#I remember how annoyed I was seeing them. Because the staff cheerfully told me that “see they live happy they have a lot of food and-#-and nothing to worry about. What else can they want?“#I was so pissed at those “crazy hysterical eco activists” because they were actively ruining such a fun place#Now when I know better I wish I could meet those people and thank them#they got what they were fighting for. well. mostly they did#Hunting orcas is illegal now thanks to them#and breeding stopped too#they refused to let their last surviving Orca free (she was caught. not born in captivity) but they stated they won't try to get more orcas#Every time I see something about wild orcas it's so amazing and every time I see what humans do to them it gets more horrible#With all that said. If someone is still reading this haha. I now have another idea for a character who's gonna suffer immensely#because I went to see what exactly those activists vere fighting against and now I have some fresh fucking ideas

Something I really like about timebomb is that Ekko actually knows what he's getting into.
I'm not really seeing it get talked about but in season 1 they mention that Ekko and the firelights help people addicted to shimmer get off it and lead more fulfilling lives within the community. I should probably rewatch the scene for the exact wording (might be misremembering tbh) but that comment implies A LOT.
First: Ekko's mission is helping people where he can, he would probably try and help Jinx even if he wasn't in love with her
Second: He has experience dealing with severe mental illness as that often goes hand in hand with drug abuse, namely depression/suicidal ideation like what Jinx was exhibiting
Third: He's probably mapped out best course of action FOR dealing with this and has already figured out his own limits/boundaries. Meaning he knew what he was getting into trying to talk Jinx out of suicide, and was thus more equipped to deal with the aftermath
Fourth: He's probably helped ex members of Silco's gang. The firelights seem to have a theme of healing and repairing and recovering, so they've probably also learned to forgive. If they're mission is to rebuild the lanes into a safe space, they can't exclude people they don't like, they have to make room for them. I think they fought Silco out of necessity, and I doubt Jinx would be the first person they help who's killed one of them.
These all might be a bit of a stretch but I think it really fits. Beyond that, it shows that Ekko can ACTUALLY help Jinx. As much as unconditional love can do, Ekko has the tools for Jinx's recovery and a path ready for her. He also probably knows that her "healthy" will look different from AU Powder's "healthy." On top of that, I expect he knows how to respect her even in the middle of psychotic breaks and won't agitate her already frail mental state
#if you would like to (respectfully) disagree with me I'll GLADLY talk with you. I can think of nothing but Arcane atm#timebomb#ekko arcane#putting it in the tags bc I want to let people agree with my timebomb takes without having to listen to my other ship opinions#uh on that note I have some Caitlyn and Vi opinions that go a bit hand in hand with this#but I think that in contrast Caitlyn and Vi are mutually self destructive#see neither of them seem to make the others mental health... better.#Vi is desperate and needs love wherever she can get it#and Caitlyn... I'm not sure. I have a hard time reading her but a lot of the vibes I get off her feel like she just likes having the power#over vi#I KNOW THAT'S A STRONG CLAIM#hear me out#Vi in her search for unconditional love does a lot of enabling#a good example is when Caitlyn arrests that henchman in episode 3(?)#Vi is VISIBLY uncomfortable with that and for good reason!#Caitlyn just locked someone up for life for... nothing?#kinda like Marcus did to her (yes Marcus was trying to protect her but I doubt that's how Vi sees it)#but Vi doesn't voice this or push Caitlyn on it#instead she asks Caitlyn not to change#not great communication on Vi's part#but also indicative of how little their values align#and how little Caitlyn actually considers Vi and her problems and history#Caitlyn doesn't help Vi heal and she turns on Vi the second Vi stops enabling her and letting Caitlyn do as she thinks is best#neither of them are ready to deal with the others problems or communicate well#again. willing to discuss this. my opinions are swayable.#I just personally found Caitlyn made the most sense and was most compelling when she was going down facist dictator path#sure she could be more but I don't think the show ever really transitioned her away from that#you can see it in the way she treats Maddy#hhhhhh I should go to bed rather than spill every last thought I've ever had

So because of the length of the new DW seasons, Ncuti has been doctor for I believe only 5 more episodes than Christopher Eccleston. Now I love 9 he is one of my favourite Doctors I think it’s an absolute crime he didn’t get more time and the situation around that is criminal too, but I’m gonna put that aside for a second.
A Doctor who has had 2 companions, the return of multiple major Classic Who characters, references to the MASSIVE lore changes during the previous era, as well as involvement in currently two specials has FIVE more episodes than one of the shortest incarnations of the Doctor.
Now I can’t find anything concrete that Ncuti’s run is ending after this season, only comments that he hasn’t been ‘axed’ but no dispelling of the rumours of regeneration (or show cancellation lets be real), but if he is leaving??? That feels so wrong.
The length of these seasons is appalling we don’t get enough time to develop ANYONE properly, almost every episode seems to be out competing the others, and the huge classic Who things the entire fandom is talking about have taken place over what is to be THREE episodes. Obviously they’ll likely continue into possibly further seasons but now? With Ncuti? With Varada? It’s three episodes.
Eight episodes will NEVER be enough to tell stories like these. Longer seasons allow for an episode or two that feel a little out of character because we have enough to come back around with whereas eight episodes doesn’t do that - Belinda’s immediate forgiveness and affection after seeing the Doctor torture someone is the best example so far, she literally Would Not Act Like That.
I hope this isn’t the end for Ncuti, him as the Doctor is what’s keeping me watching every week because I LOVE where he’s taking it. I just wish the plot and scripts allowed for more exploration of his version of the character and his wants and wishes (lol) and Ruby and Belinda’s character arcs (if you can even call them that).
I hope I eat my words I hope he gets more time I hope characters start to feel fully fleshed out. Mostly I hope we see the end of 8 episode seasons and go back to actual creative freedom and not a streaming set up show. I hope a lot of things.
#i am … enjoying Ncuti’s seasons but I’m currently doing a huge rewatch of new who and im onto season 6 and god the writing was just so much#better#do not get me wrong there are MANY terrible episodes#but with longer seasons you can flesh them out with pure brilliance and it even puts elements of the bad episodes into behavioural context#for example with 11 and amy and rory i have a hundred issues but i also have two hundred things i adore about them#do i wanna shake moffat a little bit yeah#do i also wanna shake his hand for his monster creation and overall story arcs?? yeah!!!#the new new stuff just….feels disjointed#it feels like it’s compensating for 8 epsidoes by going for wow factor every time and that’s just#not doctor who#there have been some episodes ive really enjoyed like dot and bubble the well (i hate that i enjoyed it but i did) and the story and the#engine but the rest fall somewhere in ‘eh’ to ‘ugh’#and i KNOW ME because many i enjoyed as i was watchjng then about an hour to a week later j went ‘wait that wasnt actually that good it#just had a banging score that took me on an emotional journey’ bc j am RULED by music#i just i love the costuming i love ncuti’s acting i love ELEMENTS of the world building but it just feels disjointed rushed and like it’s#throwing glitter at you to distract you#it doesnt feel….human??? anymore idk thags the best way i can describe it#we dont get enough pure human connection anymore#and i mean that in an emotional sense not a species sense😂#something very key is that neither of his seasons have made me cry yet because i’m just not invested enough in anyone#love watching him cry though you beautiful man#kai.txt#doctor who#dw#dr who#idk if i should tag spoilers bc im VERY vague and if you havent got the main tag blocked by now you’re fucked for the clasdic who stuff#ncuti gatwa#ncuti!doctor#verada sethu#belinda chandra

We really mass hallucinated and almost made Codywan canon huh. I was here back when it was just a rare crack ship idk what happened but like it’s so crazy what almost happened in the obiwan show. How the fuck did we hallucinate that close to the sun god bless never let your dreams stay dreams.
#if I had a nickel for everytime one of my Star Wars crack ships suddenly got insanely popular I’d have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it#weird that it happened twice#I’ve never had a rare pare like become not one before Codywan it’s a wierd experience I gotta say. like not complaining it’s just odd#like seeing new winter hawk shippers bc of marvel rivals but times 100 and also for no apparent reason ajdjdjjd#I guess maybe not crack ship like. Crack in the sense we didn’t have many interactions beteeen them but like there was always a lot of#potential their with how mcuh we know they interacted that we just didn’t see. right? so maybe rare pair is the better word but also but#I feel like for a bit there any clone jedi ship was a crack ship but we’ve defo moved far past that many years ago ajdjdjdjd#I feel old I remember internet debates about whether the clones where children or not like.i think maybe that still happens but I feel a lo#more people were convinced they were child soldiers#what a time to be alive sorry I jsut have this Paul Rudd wow look at us moment very now and then randomly when I’m in the Codywan tag#ok grandma let’s get you back to bed#sw#Codywan

Oh my goodness??? This is horrifying 😭😭


I would literally pee my pants if I was Idia and Malleus just ominously said that. The way they don’t even show him either is so scary (╥_╥).
The end is coming for Diasmonia, and they’re really building it with this horrifying exchange 😭
Over blot Malleus fic... (a few spelling errors in the tags be warned >.<)
#Mmm... A horror themed Overblot Malleus x Reader fic... Mmm#sounds really good about now#imagine you get sucked in by the darkness when travelling with the dream group#the first thing you feel is blot dropping onto your skin#when you look up green eyes tell you who you think you’re looking at#but all his other features are shrouded in shadow#clawed hand stroking your cheek as more black ink falls onto your skin#“are you awake?“#and now you have to desperately pretend you’re still dreaming before he sends you into an even deeper slumber#now you have to pretend this overblot Malleus#is your dear husband#AHHHH having to hug and kiss this scary version of Malleus just so everyone else can complete the plan without him interuppting#Pulling out your nest acting skills to commit to being a lover#evene better#imagine he knows you’re awake but he doesnt seem to mind letting them roam a bit longer just to feel your lips on his#thought he’ll have to stop you soon despite your efforts... after all everyone still needs their happy endings :)))#vesperramble!

Ashton "I serve the weak, I serve the forgotten, I serve the dirt beneath our feet" Me "Saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?"
#critical role#cr spoilers#c3 spoilers#c3e105#ashton greymoore#lots of public speaking in this ep but a lot of character building too#I mean Ashton is trying to defeat their demons and all the nonbelievers - the plans that they have made#the Kryn are worrisome though - someone call Essek! This is what happens when you can't give someone looking for answers a tangible answer#Like Leylas I know you're all about bringing all the beacons together but can you just be cool about this one - Ludinus has beacons!#my shipper heart is in flux: Fearnie pls you only get flustered with them - talk and be chaos lovers together! Also continue the kissing!#it has actually given me a bit of a stomachache...#also thinking about it what if Waylon is Dusk/Yu? Next arc could be killing Zathuda in the Feywild#which I'm all for btw the sooner we prevent him from mentally torturing Fearne the better#get some shippy stuff outta that from Fearne and Ashton I'd be happy - titan combo kill or something

It's thinkin about the line "You know, the only thing that keeps Darry from bein' a soc is us, y'know?" from Two n Pony sayin' "Yeah, I know." hours again
#theres just so much to unpack here#ok#lemme get into this#alright one#darry curtis was never goin to be a soc#bc a soc aint just a social class (darry couldn't get to either way)#but rather also a certian in group that rests on the hatred of greasers#'soc' doesnt refer to every rich kid the way 'greaser' does refer to every poor ki#do we see what i mean?#im not bein real coherent down here#but anyways#darry definitely has a fair amount of internalized classism#he doesnt want to be lumped in n compared to greasers#he sets himself apart in the way he looks talks n acts#but he could never hate them#also the fact that this line comes from two is so important to me#its a rare serious moment from him#effectively realizin that darry curtis might be the best of them#he could go places#n two who is proud to be a greaser n sees himself goin nowhere#his 'were the only thing keepin darry from goin soc' has much more to do with 'were the only thing keepin darry'#whos probably thinkin of johnny in that moment n darry curtis n ppl who deserve better#whereas ponys 'yeah i know'#has a lot more to do with 'IM keepin MY brother here'#aoughhhh#that line makes me a lil insane every time#the outsiders#ponyboy curtis#two bit mathews#darry curtis
