You mentioned that all the Wayne's post thirst traps. And that Damian's are like Victorian women showing some racy ankle. What does he consider a thirst trap then.

Have you ever seen a man in a dark turtle neck sweater.

#sophie speaks #sophie answers #also he thinks the rest of the batfam are pathetic and embarrassing but ALSO he's just. too competitive #its beneath him. but also he got like 20k more likes than dick without even posting ass in yoga pants so who is winning #his thirst traps are unbelievably obnoxiously artsy #'paint me like one of your french girls damian' 'what the fuck did you just say to me'#he would do it btw if you offered to nude model for him i think like you'd actually see his brain explode #thats off topic ANYWAYS all his posts are like beautiful lighting that makes it hard to see him #and hes always fully covered #suits and shit. he also likes those domtop shots where the camera is literally pointed at his shoes #people go crazy over that and while he wont admit it its very obvious he feels quite smug about it #its like a cold war for him he's never gonna speak it out loud but he IS winning (delusional)#in reality its pretty evenly matched. everyone except cass and duke have extremely feral fans tho #reader in www is one of them lets be honest #stan twitter queen you know her posts where going viral

quick note - this blog is gonna be sparse again for at least this week. trying new medications and tbh initial side effects are not super pleasant + actual effects build up. as a result: currently as if unmedicated for mental health, with anxiety+ side effect, extra fatigue, dizziness, and fatigue. it's uh, sure something.

totally recognize that most of y'all know we're absent at times due to health things, just wanted to give a heads up that this one is at least anticipated.

#fun fact sometimes condensing meds just means poorer treatment of some conditions #this is a re-expansion + new thing #so that instead of poorly treating my mental health and using an unusually high dose SNRI for another (physical) condition #i will hopefully both be in less pain AND not depressed af AND also have an appetite again #i doubt i will be lucky and not have a fucked stomach due to meds but one can hope that an appetite will allow me to eat foods that upset #my stomach a lot less #my health is forever a massive balancing act #every time a medical thing is like 'so what meds do u take' i'm like here i wrote it down for u #and they're like 'oh. ooookay. let me just...' *five minutes of typing and clicking later*#'so! what did you come in for again? uhuh. you said you experience pain daily? with your chronic pain thing? hm. have you tried yoga?'#/gen #like. straight up every time i say 'i am in pain all the time due to fibromyalgia' they are like 'ooh studies say regular exercise helps'#and like. theoretically yes! but also. i would be lying if i said the fibromyalgia studies i've skimmed don't set off general 'bad science'#alarm bells in my brain #like... cool you performed a fibromyalgia study with... all male lab rats? mhmm? so are you aware fibromyalgia appears to occur #overwhelmingly in women? like. data seems to suggest between 70-85%?#(not that the data can't still indicate things but it certainly makes male rats a poor choice of model for tests on it)#also just... idk i've looked at some metaanalysis and been like 'okay cool theory and for all i know about human bio or bio in general that #sounds more or less correct BUT. you never discussed that one study on this subject that did NOT support your conclusion.#and that's 1) interesting when it was the most diverse group of subjects and the exceptions often teach just as much as the 'rule'#2) just shitty science. tell me how your theory is still credible when some evidence doesn't fit the model.#like... 'given that all other studies were primarily conducted on white american women in their 30s to 40s it is possible that this model #only explains (the early effects of fibro since that's a typical onset period) / (a possible genetic link primarily found in white women) /#(a possible sign of bias in diagnosis that demonstrates the possibility that there are different causes) / combinations of all of those #like... idk a paper that just throws out things that don't support it is a pretty big red flag #it doesn't mean the conclusion is entirely incorrect but it is often important to understand the context in which it applies #like... it's very easy to jump to an incorrect conclusion if you used something in the wrong context #ie: thumbs up is a good job / positive thing in a lot of western civilizations. teenage kee once went to china and discovered it to be #neutral to offensive in many areas outside of major tourist locations that were used to it #anyways i gotta sleep

everyone in my college is a fucking hindu nationalist cunt. ughhhhh i hate it hereeeee.

#we have to take a mandatory “history” class which is basically just thinly veiled hindutva propaganda #and i always dread these classes because whenever the “professor” (he studied yoga) asks opinions about history/politics i just have to #brace myself for the worst/most bigoted takes i've ever heard #there's this one guy that loves to talk about pronouns and the “woke new generation” every fucking chance he gets.#they're all also obviously super patriotic and proud of the fucking military and i go into the class everyday hoping and praying palestine #doesn't get brought up because i know what their opinions on the genocide are #can't wait to get out of here

i need a group socialisation-based hobby that gets me out of the house but they all cost money

#not an option!#i don't even know what i would do if i did have the money to attend some kind of hobby #i'm not really physically capable #everything online is like 'go to the gym or go to yoga classes or biking'#no. i need you to understand that i will not be doing that.#i guess there's the lgs but i feel like i would need to dress up as a boy to not end up having to stop going again #and lgs always feel like they already have very integrated communities that have gone for years #but even if i did go i would have to buy some kind of tcg deck or something #and then it would be wasted if i got scared off by not integrating or by someone making me uncomfy #anyway it all costs money so it's not worth thinking about but. i wish it was #puri rambles #the last time i did anything was group sewing lessons like 9 years ago but that cost a LOT of money if you wanted to #keep attending after the initial trial #it was really nice though #and had like an actual tangible result to take home with me

shout out to everyones who's brains and nervous systems have been wrecked by stressors + the state of the internet + everything else going on. I promise we'll adapt and I promise things will be alright, focus on making good small decisions to protect your well-being like cutting certain platforms (instagram, twitter, whatever you feel like) and having a look through your follow list to see if unfollowing some people might help. try giving your brain a rest by letting yourself be bored some times. try doing a puzzle or a physical task without a podcast or music or netflix drama. consider not clicking on that expose video of someone you dont know. hesitate before telling someone off in the comments or joining in on an online argument that you can opt out of. protect yourself so you can make your world a better place. push yourself when needed. cut the onslaught of overstimulation where you can, if you want.

I am saying this as someone who's never felt at home irl, with adhd and dyspraxia, general awkwardness, chronic depression, struggles with regulation and im sure a bunch of other things. I really struggle reducing screen time because it often feels like the outside world rejects me, I'm sure some of you relate to that, but I'm taking small steps to make things easier for me in the long run and day to day. it doesnt matter if we don't reach some end goal of total and complete peace and purity or whatever, all that matters is that we're choosing to be more mindful of how we navigate this world of constant stimulation. and i fully believe in all of us :)

#inspired by the fact that im in a bit of a dip in this whole journey #i downloaded insta a few months ago and ive noticed it hurting me #the videos im watching on youtube arent ones i even really want to watch #im getting headaches #i cant cope with chores or being quiet at the moment #and life just hasnt been hitting the same #but thats okay because its all a part in it #so what im going to do is to avoid insta reels #be more mindful with the videos i click on #stop worrying about online discourse im not even apart of #stop worrying about having callout posts written about me because i have nothing to be called out over *nor* do am i even in a position whe #e that'd happen BUT because its just all over everywhere #so many people get exposed #that its now an anxiety for me #im going to go on more walks and do more yoga and sleep more #and it doesnt matter if i can only do bits of all that it only matters if i try #instagram #tumblr #twitter #terminally online #reminders #positivity #mental health #depression #anxiety #autism #asd #actually autistic #adhd #cookie rambles

i am in such a bad mood everything pisses me off i've been grumbling and groaning and complaining about everything since yesterday, i just want everything to stop, i want to sleep, and i want to feel better

#might go back to my doctor and ask for antidepressants #i'm not much of a medication person usually and my doctor was sceptical about giving me antidepressants but she said she would if i asked #last time i went we decided i would try meditation but that's not working #i don't want to meditate on anything i already spend too much time in my own head i need to get OUT of my head #what i need is physical activity #but i'm too exhausted after work to do sports #i wanna try at home yoga but i haven't been able to motivate myself #i'm just not a sporty person #even if i do enjoy many sports when i'm doing them #i just don't have the motivation to start #anywayyyyy all this to say things aren't going well lol #rain.stuff

#starting to believe that maybe all this while i've been punishing myself by isolating myself from people who care abt me #like there have been times when i felt that friends just didnt care. also been times i felt too ashamed to ask for help or seek company #but i think i just gotta give myself grace like . i'm human. it's fine to seek platonic connection n a listening ear. it's Normal #anw so!! i met my best friend for yoga (for the first time!) yday n we talked SO MUCH!! we talked about life careers sexuality relationshi #i also told her about smth that has been plaguing me for two days. specifically my ex ahgkhgjgjns n . talking about it really helped me #what a shocker!!!! that talking about your worries n feelings helps!!! ksggfjsnjkgnjkndg #n i learnt so many new things about her... we usually meet in a group n it's always just a roulette of quick life nuggets #but yday i realised that i never really found out what she's really been up to. i've not had a one-to-one conversation with her in ages!!#thats crazy considering that we're such good friends.... omg. n so it really made me see how much i craved that connection #n how much i'm tormenting myself by isolating myself and depriving myself of the joy that i tend to get from deep social connections :(#n i think maybe it's time to start putting that past self who was too ashamed to reach out for help behind me #idk its been really nice talking to an old friend n being 100% comfortable u know?? it made me realise how much i missed deep connections #my point is i've missed this!!!!! maybe i should do it more!!!!!#personal

speaking of testosterone i need to um book my blood test but last time they said my blood pressure was really high but like i was nervous because i was at the height of my ‘mom died suddenly of cancer’ trauma induced health anxiety where i was convinced any doctors test would reveal a secret terminal disease…..and the person doing it just said nothing made a face and made me do the pressure bit like five times in a row which just STRESSED ME OUT!!!!!!! SO OF COURSE THE READING WAS HIGH!!!!!!

#like this era of my life id think any pain was stage 4 cancer so I was. always on edge LOL #and then I was scared about my blood pressure but in hindsight it was probably literally just all that #at the moment I have like. barely any day to day stress for the first time in my life #I run 3 times a week and do yoga and meditation all the things I was told to do…..#and if it’s still high and consistently so they can just medicate. but part of me is like what if they use that #to take my T away LOL

**** and ****** and I all got invited to birthday party #1 tonight. Then each of them got invited to an additional birthday party, #2-3. so now I am being made to go party hopping with them. to parties of ppl I’ve only met in passing. and if that weren’t bad enough a friend of ours but mostly theirs is opening for [mid but confusingly well known DJ in our town who thinks playing starships by Nicki Minaj makes her all that even tho *** is better!] tonight and so now we’re gonna try to go to four things. Woeeeee is literally meeeeeeee I want 2 stay home and pirate ebooks and listen to sufjan stevens but unfortunately if I refused to go it’d be a whole big thing even though I literally only ever agreed to go to party #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Scream. Ugh whatever I’m going to drink a matcha latte with raspberries and a shot of espresso at 4-5 pm and hopefully I will not pass away </3 Urgh this is fine this is good for me I’m young blah blah blah I have to enjoy this era it’s fleeting whatever blah blah blah I have the rest of my life to drink herbal tea all alone plan my garden and force myself to read a joan Didion book I am not enjoying. Blah blah blah but I don’t have to LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh AND I have to go fucking secondhand clothes shopping* beforehand this is like when Gabriella and Troy from High School Musical had big game, scholastic decathalon, and callback auditions all at the same time

*it’ll be FINE I guess hdhebfndjjejejdjdj

#ughhhhhhh #why don’t you skip it? you might ask. great question!!#it is because I have managed to seriously fuck up the dynamic between me and one of these friends to where it will make things worse if I #appear to be further avoidant!#so why not COMMUNICATE??#yeah I am asking myself the same thing! but it is COMPLICATED!#ahghgghhgh whatever maybe there’ll be MDMA at some point then it will be fun ugh #journal #sorry venting #I wonder if brunch tomorrow at ours with ****** *** and ********* got canceled. if not then that 22222 erghhhhhh #and then fucking yoga and dumplings tomorrow night #literally why am I complaining it’s nice to be included and wanted etc #I think it’s just the imbalance between stretches of loneliness and isolation and like…bam seven events in one weekend #last night I accepted the joint as it got passed around and instantly got so weird no one could tell what I was talking about.#which is what everyone always thinks but actually no one could tell for real this time so I just got in a blanket and thought about faraway #things #i should stop smoking weed the thing is it’s never like unbearable just like low grade kind of sad #update and now they want to take MY car??? all the way to fucking Fairview????????#when I don’t even know *****????

shit dude it is unbelievable just how generally better I feel not being in school atm. i hope working full time doesn’t drain me as much as school does.

#i did work full time with no classes for about a year #but i had just moved out of my parents house and away from all my family and was in a horrible living situation #but holy shit i feel like a human #did you guys know that reading what you want with no deadlines is fun??#and trying new recipes??#and did you know it’s possible to do the dishes and not have your energy and mood completely drained???#and oh my gosh have you tried yoga? this shit rocks dude #hopefully this doesn’t all end when i go to my parents house in a few days #and hopefully i can make it through two more semesters and find a job that doesn’t kill me #personal

Seems like I'm having another pain flare-up, this time so much worse than the last :(

#i don't know what i'm gonna do about school this year. at this point i definitely can't carry a bag #can't even carry just my ass around without being in so much pain. and i can't fit anything in a fanny pack #i've been stretching and trying to work out my muscles veeeery slowly. because if i don't i'll injure myself again #..........maybe i should just say fuck it and finally see a doctor.#but nooo. if you're afab and you see a doctor for pain it's gonna be two things:#'oh it's your period of course!' 'oh it's not your period? then have you tried yoga? drinking water?'#i swear to god it's always like that #partner thinks i might have fibro and i'm not completely unconvinced #my entire middle-upper back and ribs and sternum are just killing me. can't stand up straight or slouch without pain #stretching doesn't seem to be doing anything to help but i'm going to keep trying #can't tell if this is just because i'm 26 and not active at all or if i have some other serious underlying condition #though if i've been in pain every single day for at least the last 11 years it's probably p fucking serious.#i just want to cry. everything aches like when you have a fever or the flu #i'm also feeling SO nauseous this morning like holy shit #someone might have to physically drag me to the doctor tbh #medical trauma wee hoo!!!

Automatically assigned jock bc life becomes so much easier when I work out for at least 2 hours a day

#doesnt matter if its cardio or weight training or even just flexibilty exercises and yoga #life just becomes manageable my brain shuts down i gain energy #like you never feel this way from fucking studying or listening to music #forced myself into the nerd stereotype when all this time i could have been living it up as a jock #also i have this realisation every few months... what does that say about me #anyway im having quinoa for dinner and i did laundry and now im gonna go read a book thank you dumbbells i love you #i wish there were pools around accessible to me when i swim i unlock jock lite its even better than weight trainging #:(((#but yeah why wasnt this an option all my life lol
