Local Cryptid Alert! (It’s me.) I feel like people who have had past lives either do really well under anesthesia or they do Really Bad and the deciding factor is whether they died peacefully more often than they died violently.

Me? I woke up sobbing because I was still alive. O_O;

I’ve just learned the other day that I’m a Scorpio North Node.

For those less familiar in astrology: it means my direction of growth is toward Scorpio tendencies and away from Taurus tendencies.

Great! Self-mastery and passion! Just one problem:

I’m a Taurus Sun.

why arent more right-handed and left-handed characters paired together? do you understand how cute it is to be able to hold hands while doing homework? to be able to comfortingly touch a partner’s elbow underneath the dinner table during that awkward meal where they first meet the family? to hold hands while brushing teeth together???? like?????? why are people sleeping on this

Africa AND India

That wasn’t a competition, it was a beautiful conversation between drumming cultures. You can see the respect you have for each other’s skill as they call one another back in.

Hey ya’ll I was unaware of this but if you search for “depression” Tumblr poofs up a message asking if everything is okay.

Thanks, Hellsite. I needed that. Sorta.

How to Backup your Tumblr

I was just semi-complaining that I was still looking for a decent way to backup my +6k posts without having to use paid services or even just wordpress (which has an import from tumblr tool that asks for permission to access your blog and also make posts), when I decided to actually put some effort into my google search. 

Results were positive: I have successfully backed up my blog* 

*By which I mean: everything that I have ever posted.  Not included: drafts, queue, likes, followers, following, comments, notes, chat. 

I followed this method (word by word), and now have a 450 MB folder on my computer with the name of my blog on it containing: 

1. Folder “Archive” (contains .html files listed by month) 2. Folder “Media” (contains gifs and images, mine has +1k files in it; might contain also audios but I have no way of confirming that because I’ve never reblogged an audio post from this blog) 3. Folder “Posts” (contains single .html files, each one a post; I have +4k files in it) 4. Folder “Theme” (contains only my avatar, but it might be a matter of if you have personalized themes or not) 5. .html file “Index” (by opening it it will give you the archive of your blog organized by month; clicking on a month will open up the archive for that month, and you’ll be able to read all the posts for that month as if you were on your blog**, except sans your theme graphic, with each page containing 50 posts)

**I can see gifs, links, embedded videos, tags, number of notes (but I can’t open up the notes, clearly), text is also correctly formatted. 

So yeah, in case anyone wants a very quick way to back up their blog, it took me less than 10 minutes. 

P.S. I didn’t have any issue, but to be on the safe side always check for spyware and virus threats before and after downloading anything.

I LIVE WITH LOUD NEUROTYPICAL PEOPLE AND I’M AUTISTIC AND IT’S A PROBLEM AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!

[hermithart]

i think that… approximately 100% of the time, parents, teachers, etc… have this misconception that neurodivergent kids & teens don’t know anything about how to handle their neurodivergence.

for years, i suffered through people making suggestions of things that were things i had done, and either weren’t worth the effort or they actually made things worse. i told them this, and if i was still having any issues with the same problem they’d say something about “well if you’re not gonna listen to any suggestions…” when I did. they’re the one who didn’t listen when i told them that doesn’t work for me. They assume that because I didn’t try it in front of them (which is often impossible), I never tried it. I tried doing my homework as soon as I got home. I tried doing my homework at the table, I tried working where I was comfortable. I tried listening to music, I tried working in silence. I tried using a planner, I tried setting reminders on my phone, I tried. I tell people that I have executive functioning issues and they say that I have to work on it like I haven’t been doing that as long as I’ve had to do things and it’s so much better than it was before. I’m as able as I am now because I’ve spent 18 years working on it.

One of my friends has ADHD, and at one point when her grades dropped her parents took her phone, despite her telling them that the only way she can focus on her homework is to listen to music, for which she needs her phone.

I was in a study hall with another friend, who also has ADHD. Sometimes, they would be able to focus and do their work. Others, they would end up being entirely unable to and would do other stuff. The “instructional support” person would start bothering them about it, insist that they try. As if they hadn’t already done so.

I am tired of watching people assume that neurodivergent people aren’t trying, or we haven’t tried. We’re always trying.

December First.

My flatmate is playing Christmas music.

My pagan ass sitting here going, “LET ME LISTEN TO JEREMY SOULE IN PEACE DANGIT!!”

Because there’s nothing more ~*Yule*~ than the snowy expanses of Skyrim, IMO.

It’s time for Fan Art Friday, people! This week’s pick comes to us from @arnaerr who created not one, but TWO beautiful pieces based on Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim titled Sky Above, Voice Within.

“Skyrim as a game means a lot for me. And I can’t imagine these games without an amazing soundtrack from Jeremy Soule. This artwork was inspired by his music and I wanted to show how my character feels while traveling through Nordic mountains, where you have a long road and a lot of adventures ahead.”-@arnaerr
