somebody- hey girlie what you’re playing on these miserable broken but fixed headphones?

me (random mind 🫶🏻)

[annabelle--cane]

say it with me everybody: personal health is completely immaterial to morality, including mental health. leading a mentally unhealthy lifestyle (or what you perceive as a mentally unhealthy lifestyle) does not a bad person make. no one has to socialize, exercise, have healthy coping mechanisms, or lead (what you perceive as) a fulfilling life with fulfilling hobbies in the same way that no one has to go to the doctor to get a broken bone reset. both of those types of management of personal health are likely to be beneficial to the individual, but they are in no way moral requirements or debts owed to society. they do not actually say anything about a person's principles, personality, or actions towards others. additionally, people know themselves and their own situations better than you do. maybe a person judges that the physical and financial toll of going to the doctor outweigh the benefit of getting their bone reset, maybe a person just does not have the capacity to develop healthy coping mechanisms at this point in their life, and yes, maybe a person feels like they are totally fulfilled by "media based" hobbies alone and would feel no difference in their life if they picked up a loom. just like. let people be sick without accusing them of being representative of the lazy, degenerated state of modern society.

Fishlake Meadows, Romsey: A special place

This nature reserve is equally as uplifting to visit in the spring and summer months when exotic Hobbies dash through the sky and colossal Stag Beetles roam the canal side path as it is in winter when Gadwall, Pintail, Pochard and Teal immerse me in a world of waterfowl.

A magnificent raptor is a star attraction to this reserve in spring and summer, Ospreys (particularly one) standing like grand statues and offering breathtaking moments of natural wonder when they fish. Many raptors adorn the skies here, Marsh Harrier in its prime habitat, ravishing Red Kite, Buzzard and Kestrel. Sparrowhawk also a key species in this oasis of wild in an urban area and a non-bird of prey evolutionary lookalike is a mesmerising sight and sound here on spring days, the Cuckoo. Its similarly in appearance to the predatory Sparrowhawk able to fool the adults of its host species into leaving their nest so it can insert its imposter egg. Other key waterbirds to see here include bight Egyptian Geese and Greylags, Great Crested Grebe, Common Gull, Snipe and dazzling Water Rail always a species to cherish seeing. Another of the main stars of this reserve is an elegant giant which is gripping the south of the country now, Great White Egret. Purple Heron and Glossy Ibis are two rarities I was lucky to see here. I was ecstatic to see a Kingfisher catch a fish along the canal when reaching the reserve as was I when I was so fortunate to see a splendid Cetti’s Warbler after being surrounded by their bright and cherry calls evocative of a reedbed paradise. Sedge and Garden Warbler other amazing warblers I’ve seen here. Other passerines it’s a treat to see here include Wren, Bullfinch, Blackcap, Treecreeper, captivating Nuthatch, vibrant Stonechat and Reed Bunting. A Roe Deer a delight to see.

It's an insect haven too with Hairy Dragonfly one of the first spring dragonflies to see and the gem of Banded Demoiselle another key species with Migrant Hawker enjoyed here too. Speckled Wood and Green-veined White fly the flag for beautiful butterflies and Brimstone moth and Grey Birch are among sensational moths I’ve seen here. Drinker moth caterpillar and vigorous ruby Cardinal beetle are other key insects I’ve seen here. Nursery web spider was another of nature’s fascinating little stars which has thrilled me here. Onto plants and there is an array of colour here throughout the seasons created by stunning species such as wood avens, comfrey, meadowsweet, cuckooflower, forget-me-not, hemp agrimony, bird vetch, yellow iris, water lily, hogweed, traveller’s joy and marsh marigold. A sight of intricate and alluring turkey tail fungi clinging to a stump beside the canal at one time lit up by the glorious winter sun was wonderful.

This brilliant nature reserve with its distinctive dead trees and thriving reedbed, wetland, canal and woodland habitat is a star of a reserve that has risen over the past few years and an exciting vision of how to use land for nature and let a landscape be transformed. A lesson of hope, a place I always come back from inspired.

Anyway, I've been sitting on "The Five Times Queen Hippolyta Had Her Heart Broken (and the one time she didn't)" for about 2.5 years and 2024 seems like as good time as any to finally release it!

there’s a person in the lego friends wiki who has a personal vendetta against emma

the argument that “emma doesn’t move” is so ableist? i don’t even know what they mean by that… because she DOES. she moves a LOT. but to say that someone is horrible because “they don’t move” is really bad

the argument about emma’s “no heart without art” quote is so silly, i’m so sorry. why does that matter? they definitely took that quote too seriously. the point is that emma is the artist friend, so of course she’d say that. and the running line is that they’re “girls on a mission with h-e-a-r-t” and they’re trying to save the arts district from modernization. of course she’s going to say artsy quotes

and saying that emma is useless unless she’s doing something related to her talent is pretty rude! it’s like saying the disney fairies are useless when their sole purpose of being alive is to practice their given talents like??? hello? if you’re good at something and enjoy doing that something, how can you not do it or be proud of it? i fear this logic is also ableist because someone can be very very bad at cooking, driving, crafting furniture, doing math, but can be extremely good at crocheting, weaving, and sewing. that doesn’t make them useless. they can still try at these things they aren’t good at. and they can fail! and that is okay. just as long as they having something they feel they are good at and they take pride in, all is well. and even then, emma is still helpful. especially at the most random points, emma says the most unexpected yet helpful things.

“she is not cute, she is not beautiful” SHE IS A LEGO. she’s a lego character in a kids series. why would they make episodes where she acknowledges the fact that “she’s ugly” and “physically unattractive” like BSNSN? WHAT?

i was thinking yesterday abt how i've been collecting vinyl for like. 10 years now and that's kinda crazy to me bc i've never devoted myself to something so heavily. my collection is my Baby and i fear what'll come of it when i inevitably die

[whitelighter2013]

not to sound. idk cringe or whatever it actually really really hurts almost physically knowing i havent had a really extreme or long-lasting hyperfixation since 2020 and it sounds dumb but its not like i dont have adhd suddenly its just that my brain started working differently and idk if i just got a little older or if something happened but nothing has sparked the same sort of fervent passion in me that i used to feel. everything is always a little bit dull and out of reach and even when i feel a hint of euphoria it's more like.... the feeling of wanting to feel it
