I did not get tagged but I am possessed with this concept.

Rules: Make a 24 hour poll with the names of your WIPs, let it run, then work for 10 minutes for every vote the winner receives.

Dean/Cas pinefest fic is currently at 7k words, and it's easily going to be much longer than the 20k word minimum. you do not get to know anything else. this is all i've been writing lately so if this one is voted, i'll actually work in order from chapter one instead of random scenes. just to make it special instead of the default.

You Can, I Promise is like half heavier kink and half destiel. mostly not together though. (dean goes out and sleeps with some random woman that turns out to be a witch). fuck or die. for funsies.

sabriel wingfic is porn. very heavy on the wings and supposed to be "disgustingly affectionate", but i havent written that in yet.

cas wingfic is both destiel and sam&cas, and sfw. i saw a parrot video and got possessed by it.

destiel religious imagery is just porn. dean is trans. and the altar that cas worships at.

[heavily redacted] will not be shared for another 7 months. but its on here because i think its funny to put it on here.

Have your character toss and turn all night because they forgot a dose of their pain medication, so they get up the next morning on the verge of tears because they’re so tired and in so much pain.

Living with Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors

Me: *Is super stressed over life.*

Trichotillomania: Time to pull some hair! C'mon. You won't even notice you're doing it. It'll make you feel better.

Me: NO. *Spends 4 days putting hair in a mini twist protective style* There.

Dermatillomania: Hey. Your hands are free. And restless. And dry... Pick your skin. Bleed. Bleed.

Me: Stop! *Starts up a new crochet project to keep hands busy.* Ok cool.

Onychophagia: Hi hi. Your nails are.... perfect biting length... you should do that.

Me: Noooooooooooo *Paints nails.*

Dermatillomania: Oh look, you got some nail polish on your skin. Pick it off... now pick some more...

alright hold on hold on hold on we're doing 3am gender thinking again

so the initial idea of my views on gender that occurred to me at 5am last time in what was probably a manic episode is fuck gender I can't fit the boxes expected of me so I'll dismantle the whole system and do my own thing

so problem is I can't do that, I can't dismantle the whole system and go my own way because I am entirely dependent on the sex and gender systems we have in place and how other people view sex and gender

additionally the idea that gender itself is the outdated stereotypical system is flawed, gender is the way a person feels and we've made categories and boxes to describe incredibly complex feelings

the problem is the more specific a gender gets, the smaller that box gets, the more people are excluded from that box so the solution is another box that fits better or make their own like with neogenders

the solution is a line of gender boxes like hermit crabs...

the fun part about thinking of gender and stuff is that I personally believe that every single person on earth experiences gender and life differently from every other person, even if only slightly

so theoretically if every person on earth were to describe their gender outlook and gender experiences and form a gender identity from that, then there could theoretically be 8 billion god damn genders

the solution is more genders

the solution is running Doom (1993) on my fucking gender

ive seen ppl saying smth in the wider plagiarism discussion to the tune of "don't worry anxious people, it's impossible to accidentally plagiarize!" and i feel like that lacks a lot of nuance that anxious brains like mine latch on to to just dismiss the possibility outright, as well as a lack of life experiences fueling it.

it is possible to "accidentally plagiarize" in that you can read something, forget about it, then a while later have your brain spit the ideas back out without telling where it got them. so of course you just assume they're yours and share them as such, because That's Where Most Of The Thoughts In Your Head Come From! and it both is and isn't plagiarism, you weren't /intending/ to pass someone's else's work off as your own, i'd even say in a way you were just as much a victim of misinformation as your audience. but you very much so did still resuse the work of someone else, even if you don't remember it.

but in my experience, this kind of thing also happens to a lot of people. you tell a friend a joke then wake up in a cold sweat two days later realizing the reason they didnt laugh was because they'd told you that joke a month ago. you reply to a friend's text and after sending you realized you ended it with the same exact phrase as theirs. you're writing edgy poetry and write a line you really like only to see it in a text post two days later saying youve already liked the post. like, it happens. so if it DOES happens and you're just honest and explain, people will understand. something like "oh shit im sorry, i totally have read that, i mustve forgotten and only remembered bits and pieces and just thought they were mine. thank you for letting me know and for the source" works wonders.

people know you can forget things. people won't automatically doubt your apology just because all true plagiarists say it was accidental. HOPEFULLY people can understand the nuance between a genuine remorseful explanation, and a thief who hoped no one would find out scrambling for excuses for why they did it. and those who can't, that's a them problem, not a you problem, you've taken responsibility for your actions as much as you can. they think the answer is simple, that the only thing stopping you from saying "yes i did it on purpose, i knew the whole time and deliberately copied them" is shame/inability to admit to your actions. but sometimes things AREN'T that simple, so imo ppl who are shitty to you for not following the script they made up for you in their head should be ignored

im having anxiety so bad right now that im overwhelmed by noise but quiet is making me so paranoid i cant not have my headphones in

[eightyuh]

just wanna say i'm so tantalized by this ask because i have at least 3 other OCs who kind of all have a similar theme of 'suddenly became a person' and have done a lot of exploration individually for their backgrounds, so it's a matter of like... how do i differentiate Harry in this scenario... who was conscious beforehand .... mmmmm yummy food for thought

(old, out of context OC art incoming)

the imposter syndrome i feel every time i even slightly think i might be autistic is insane, specially for a person who highly relates to the lived experiences of people who are professionally diagnosed.

Like I was just watching this one youtuber, and she was talking about very specific examples in her life and childhood where she saw autistic traits that made her realize she was autistic and then seek a diagnosis and then get one, and everything she was saying was like she was describing my life! But yeah no, I can't be autistic tho

[jenn-the-mostly-harmless]

A lot of mental illnesses increase what I like to call "the poopy emotions." You know what I mean. Feeling desperate about going in the kitchen to make food. Feeling unreasonable abandonment when someone heads to the bathroom without telling you where they're going. Being pathologically unable to make decisions about what to wear or where to go for dinner and feeling horrible about it. Shit you know is unreasonable, but still hurts.

My favorite way to deal with this with friends and family? HAM IT UP. Turn it into a joke. Put your delicate little hand to your forehead and look up to the ceiling proclaiming in your best ailing victorian woman voice and gasp, "I can't believe such a fate awaits me, I must to the kitchen to make food like a common servant. The horror!" or whatever over the top image you can muster. Be as silly as you can while being honest about the feelings. It acknowledges the feelings, but also how silly they are. Everybody laughs. There's less tension. You feel seen, but also too adult to give in.

Or, at least it works for me, and I hope it works for you.

Hi, please don't encourage murder ok? Ok.

If you are in therapy it would be wise to discuss this with your therapist or counselor. If you are not in therapy you should really consider it. Have a good day :)
