Got inspired by a reddit post and tried my hand at an "heritage railway" kind of build. I think it looks adorable!

random heat survival tips from someone who grew up in a house with no aircon in central australia (40C+ temps sometimes for weeks on end)

soak your clothes in water and put them on, wear until dry

soak a shirt in water, put it in the freezer for a few hours, then put it on

wet (optionally frozen) bandana around the neck/on the chest

drink more water than you're comfortable with BUT MAKE SURE YOU

also eat a lot of salty snacks/drink plenty of electrolytes. ice cold kombucha or apple cider vinegar drinks are a+++

move slowly, sleep thru midday/afternoon if possible, save all activity for mornings or nights

seriously if you can get away with it just straight up become nocturnal

suck on ice cubes or frozen fruit juice

reduce how much you eat. you probably wont have much of an appetite anyways but tiny cold meals are ideal

for sleep: wet towel on face/neck + fan/some other airflow are lifesavers

cold showers are great for cooling down in a pinch. don't dry off after just let yourself air dry

jason todd has a file (scrapbook) of your relationship. receipts and business cards for every restaurant and cafe you meet at. detailed notes on your coffee or tea order, which iteration of his tortilla soup you liked best and how sweet you like your pie. a list of books you’ve read and not read yet. he collects it all, neatly tucked away between the cardboard covers of a handmade notebook he found at a market. maybe it’s sentimental. it’s definitely practical. jason might not have started out as a contingency maker but he sure is now. dying will do that to you. scratch that. dying and coming back to lost time, lost years, lost identities will do that to you.

it makes his skin crawl sometimes, memory chewing up a black hole in his head. jason came back. maybe not all of him at first, but everyone is pretty damn sure that he’s been pieced back together. jason isn’t. sometimes he’ll reach for a memory, a thought, a word only for it to simply not be there. the world goes fuzzy with the panic and the effort, snapping back into focus when someone will say or do something that brings the memory crashing into him. jason knows that most of him came back. he’s just not so sure it all came back to him.

his afterlife has somehow ended up here, in a shared apartment for two and an alias on shared tax forms. he can’t quite pinpoint all the steps that led him to you but he wouldn’t change it for anything. but whatever those steps were — the first date, first kiss, first hand held — he wants to remember them. jason can’t tuck them away between his ribs and count on them to stay safe there. his life has proven they won’t. so he scribbles down addresses and pastes in old flyers, prints out pictures and okay, so sue him, he decorates with washi tape. just because he’s trying to stave off the heartbreak of his own traitorous body doesn’t mean it can’t be whimsical and practical. maybe one day he’ll trust himself enough to not cling to this so badly. maybe it’ll be passed down as evidence that even jason todd, the prodigal son himself, was capable of loving someone. one day.

When a Character is Falling in Love but Doesn’t Trust It

Love is terrifying. Especially for characters who’ve been hurt, shut down, or raised to believe vulnerability is weakness. So when they start falling? It doesn’t look like a Disney montage. It looks like panic in slow motion.

✧ They start noticing everything and it unsettles them. The way their voice cracks when they laugh. The way their fingers tap when they’re thinking. These little details burrow in and refuse to leave. And that awareness makes the character feel exposed.

✧ They become hyperaware of their own body. Where their hands are. How close they’re standing. If they’re blushing. It’s like being inside a body that’s betraying them constantly.

✧ They act a little mean. Not because they are mean. But because being cold is safer than being real. Sarcasm, distance, teasing, they use it like armor.

✧ They hate how much they want to share things. They’ll see a funny meme and instinctively want to send it. Then stop. No. Don’t get attached. They want to tell them about a childhood memory, then bite it back. Too personal.

✧ They become inconsistent. Warm one moment, distant the next. Showing up, then pulling away. They’re testing how much of themselves they can reveal before it feels like too much.

✧ They assume the worst. They know it won’t last. That this person will leave. That they’re misreading everything. Love doesn’t feel safe, it feels like a countdown to pain.

✧ They self-sabotage. Pick fights. Flake on plans. Pull away emotionally just to “protect themselves” before it goes wrong. It’s tragic and messy and real.

✧ They notice silence more. What wasn’t said. A delayed reply. A joke that didn’t land. Everything becomes a sign that maybe this love thing was a mistake.

✧ They want to run, but never do. The desire to bolt is constant. But they don’t. Because something about this person is pulling them back, despite every warning bell going off in their head.

✧ They don’t trust the feeling, but they keep falling anyway. And that’s what makes it beautiful. And heartbreaking. Because they don’t want to fall. But they do. And maybe, just maybe, that’s the bravest thing they’ve ever done.

those ads for ai integration on phones are so funny bc it seems like they cant. come up with that many use cases that arent already on a phone? "ask gemini to give you recipes when youre cooking!" "use our AI assistant to find the perfect gift for your girlfriend" yeah or i could just like. google it. you've spent millions on a slightly fancier version of an alexa. good job man.
