“I think you lost all interest in this world. You were disappointed and discouraged, and lost interest in everything. So you abandoned your physical body. You went to a world apart and you’re living a different kind of life there. In a world inside you.”

— Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

fucking hate it when the stuff everybody says "actually works" does actually work.

hate exercising and realizing i've let go of a lot of anxiety and anger because i've overturned my fight-or-flight response.

hate eating right and eating enough and eating 3 times a day and realizing i'm less anxious and i have more energy

hate journaling in my stupid notebook with my stupid bic ballpoint and realizing that i've actually started healing about something once i'm able to externalize it

hate forgiving myself hate complimenting myself more often hate treating myself with kindness hate taking a gratitude inventory hate having patience hate talking to myself gently

hate turning my little face up to the sun and taking deep breaths and looking at nature and grounding myself and realizing that i feel less burdened and more hopeful, more actually-here, that i am able to see the good sides of myself more clearly, that i am able to see not only how far i have to grow - but also how much growth i have already done & how much of my life i truly fill with light and laughter and love

horrible horrible horrible. hate it but i'm gonna do it tho

Everyone focused on Mercedes and Morgan but nobody cares about my girl Carol pulling up and shooting a dragon with a fucking shotgun. Also Samantha had a *sword*. Where the fuck did she get a SWORD.

people say this show "isnt real dnd" but i disagree because this exchange sounds like ANY given dnd conversation between me and my roommate

im v proud of how this turned out

most DMs: the boss you’re fighting is a manticore, or an owlbear! use a little strategy and you can defeat it :)

anthony burch: the boss is literally me from high school, except i can shoot death beams out of my eyes. you can defeat me by stabbing me with my own mall katana, unboxing my collectable anime figures, or googling my old fanfiction.net account. good luck, motherfuckers.

Here's my hot take. I feel that this is true in my heart, please don't ask me to put it into words.

Comparing how different DMs deal with kids is so funny like

Griffin: this adorable boy genius has never been and will never be in danger

Murph: baddies try to kill the fifteen year old but he’s got a sword and it’s supposed to be fucked up

Anthony fucking Burch: this abused child is your son and also your dad and you have to kill him if you want to see your wife again. what do you do.

If they say something that even starts with an “N,” they gonna meet the same fate.
