one of the most enlightening realizations ive had was finding out that non-24 hour circadian rhythm people were a pretty large group and most of us have oddly similar cycles of usually around 28hr internal "days" and this masquerades as "insomnia" but if allowed to sleep and wake naturally we will just advance forward through time an extra 2-4 hours a day at a relatively stable pace. we can't go to school or jobs or even run errands on normal schedules without massive pharmacological and behavioral intervention. most of the people who have been diagnosed or figured it out themselves will report horrific, life-ruining disruption in their professional lives and terrible health from accrued lack of sleep. this disorder is most common in vision-impaired people which seems to suggest it's related to light cues. anyway just thinking about this as extremely loud yard work woke me up at 8am for the second day in a row

i don’t think people understand how much of life is grief. not just people dying, but losing the version of yourself you thought you’d become. grieving the city you had to leave. the friends you lost not in argument, but in silence. the summer that will never come back. the feeling that maybe you peaked at 12 when you were reading books under the covers and believing in forever

samira and langdon foils…can anyone hear me…samira takes too long because she has such deep empathy and wants everyone to have the highest standards of care possible and langdon moves from case to case quickly and without getting attached so he can give the most efficient care and help as many people as possible. langdon starts as the prince and falls from grace…samira starts as the black sheep and rises to the occasion… HELLO ARE YOU SEEING IT

you may notice i use the phrase "my beloved" frequently. this is because i am in love with the world and everything in it. hope this clears things up <3

five hargreeves is the kind of guy who will run into any problem, research it frantically for hours, become an expert, and then be like “what do you mean? Like an hour ago of course.” When asked when the fuck he became an expert on said random niche topic
