YO I’m just a student so. YKnow, salt.

But look into videos on ‘journaling like a philosopher’ and the such. Making notes and keeping track of your trends of curiosity / keeping your thoughts accessible means any flicker of an idea you have one day isn’t lost to time. It also means you will eventually generate your own list of curiosities and be able to combine or deepen your knowledge on them to put you off in a new direction.

Journaling / note taking and organizing them rly just gets the brain going. Idk, try it? x) Otherwise… maybe just narrow down a field of interest and review older literature, and then new literature. Some stuff gets lost in translation which can lead to an interesting revival of something let go before.

Question for any professors on here. Or anyone who does research for a living.

How do you choose what to research. What to focus on. I’ve been trying to find a new area of study for months now and haven’t found anything of interest. I need something to do. Anything to do.

Good morning Unova

My ass is UP.

Two fucking pidove decided they were going to fight in my window sill over the right to squat there and occasionally peck at the window. So... that is one way to have a 6AM alarm

[poketherapist-in-training]

H. How many people are. “Anges” really?

...Do we? NO WE FUCKING DON'T? That's. That's probably given it away anyway. Great job. Ohhh, like you've been doing so much better-

[poketherapist-in-training]

Yippee!!!!

A short animation I made the other day to remind myself that animating is fun, actually

[poketherapist-in-training]

Do you ever just chuck berries at your solosis to see if they get stuck? Feels like it could be a fun game of catch for them, so long as high velocity small berries can't damage them.

we throw cherry tomatoes at him, actually. they're one of his favorite snacks and my husband uses them as training rewards for jelly baby. solosis can thin their outer membrane locally, so jelly baby actually weakens his membrane where we're aiming so it's easier for his tomatosnack to get into his goop

just make sure that any treats you do this with are soft and small enough, and make sure this is something your solosis actually wants to do. if it deflects the berries or floats away, it's not interested!

Bathing my gastrodon. For enrichment

Good reminder that a panic / anxiety attack can look like… anything.

[poketherapist-in-training]

It pains me to admit this, but I may... be in need of your services at some point in the future. Not now, no. Mindfulness is a distraction from the task ahead of me. But someday.

@haunting-narrative

Oh hey!

I'm not licensed to do therapy on my own, but if you just need someone to talk to I'm here!

...whoa, just looked at your blog- seems like your career is uh, pretty demanding! Wowza...

[poketherapist-in-training]

// doing this again like i did for jayden, since the subjects at play on adrianne's blog can be very triggering for people. reblog if you're okay with interactions from her.

(for reference, this blog will cover subjects including but not limited to: existentialism, nihilism, meta references, occasional fourth wall breaks, etc. she's a multiverse studier trying to interpret patterns in it, so that kinda comes with the territory.)

[poketherapist-in-training]

Do. Do you think Shadow is real in YOUR universe...?

yes i think SHADOW THE SANDSLASH is REAL and everything in those games really happened.

no you fucking dumbass i meant in the games. that exist in my universe.

[poketherapist-in-training]

…

How.

Tell me they at least took a photo???

I've been taking Pi into my college's Poke-DayCare (they have a human one too) so she can socialize with the other babies. Pippi and Chief are fully capable of caring for her like 90% of the time but I think its good for her to socialize with fellow pokemon around her age.

She's been making trouble with this particularly scrunkly-looking igglybuff. Like attracts like I guess, my scrunkle of a cleffa making friends with a scrunkly igglybuff just makes sense.

She... HAS gotten in trouble for making "potentially dangerous contraptions". I haven't gotten the detail on what that means yet though lmao.
