Emotional Lability Pride Flag

Emotional lability: a sign or symptom typified by exaggerated changes in mood or affect in quick succession.

"normalize this, normalize that" normalize emotional lability? psuedobulbar affect?

it's great that we're normalizing the widespread things but I didn't realize what was wrong with me until a few years ago. I had no friends because of it. and then I was so depressed and mastered hiding emotions that it didn't even show up, and people finally wanted to be friends with me. they only liked me when I stopped feeling emotive at all.

I don't expect y'all to know and research every condition possible, but at least treat people kindly if you don't know what's going on. that kid at school who has trouble expressing emotions in a normal way? they're not a "crybaby" or "too emotional." that coworker who struggles with regulating their feelings, and either shows too much or too little? there's a reason.

I don't ask for reblogs but for the love of god just be kind to people so they don't have fucked up lives and think that they're the problem.

shockingly none of the infographics on emotional lability are geared toward the intended audience of kinky hookup partners. major oversight on the part of neurological charities worldwide.

In NO WAY does JK Rowling "Hate" Trans-People. The backlash against her is pure irrational hysteria by either ignorant, or emotionally labile people.

JK Rowling is correct when she says Trans Women are NOT "Women". They are "Trans Women" with the personal right to live their lives as close to being a woman as possible. It is a different "Gender" altogether.

But to say that they are "Women" because they believe they are or feel like thy are inside themselves is supporting, at best, a Wish. Their demand that society accept them as Women is a to support a Delusion.

Language about the distinction between biological sex and gender is more an accurate intellectual debate, but not a legitimate social distinction that supports someone's "Feeling" that they are a woman, in a society that defines biological sex and gender as the default gender distinction. Biological sex IS Binary, Intersex people are the result of biological DNA misfire. Gender may be more diverse, but to argue that "Woman" is a Gender, not a "Sex" is semantics which serve only to embolden this misconception that Trans-Women are Women.

Society should openly accommodate those with Non-Binary and Trans identity. But "Feeling" as if you are the opposite biological gender than that of your birth does not make you such.

Supporting Trans-Rights does NOT mean you have to believe everything that community believes. Nor does it mean you have to blindly accept all of the social changes that community wants to see happen. They are fellow citizens with Rights, who should be able to live the life they feel best suits them and to be treated by society with the same consideration and respect as anyone else. People who have some irrational belief about them, based upon religious delusion should mind their own business.

If you want to know what JK Rowling actually said, read it for yourselves:

Honestly have so much appreciation for artists and creators who separate their sexual-themed content from the rest. As someone who experiences severe sex repulsion but still wants to view and support the rest of your content, thank you sincerely!

Apple has been a surprisingly good partner to the Peanuts brand since acquiring the home streaming rights back in 2020. On Apple TV+, you can not only watch all of the classic TV specials, but also the classic TV series, as well as quite a few new shows and specials produced with WildBrain. It’s the latter, specials, and in particular, Snoopy Presents: One-of-a-Kind Marcie, that I felt compelled…

He's Dead, Jim.

Okay so. Forewarning. This theory is probably one of my least canon-based ones. And yet...it would make sense sense, and it would provide an MO for certain things.

I was thinking about Natalie's post regarding the intricacies of blood splatters, especially as that post may pertain to a faked massacre in 1979 à la Fringe Subject 13...or an actual, physically committed massacre (as opposed to One's psionic killing).

Like...a couple things I've been struggling with are:

The "why" of it all re: a no-powers massacre. Why do that, if you've got a whole raft of kids, all of whom display useful talents? All that for one girl that you suspect might be stronger than the others?

If Brenner was yeeted, then what happened to One? Where's he in all this?

Now, we know we have a good deal of evidence that certain crucial parts of NINA are missing (for example: "I meant what I said when I called this place a prison", meanwhile One's never mentioned the lab being a prison before then) or spliced in from other versions of events, which brings me to something that's always fucked me up:

Why the hell does One look so distinctly normal after having the every loving fuck tortured out of him?

He goes from being so injured that he can't even stand up. He has to be dragged out on the floor...

With, it seems, a skull fracture bad enough to cause his face to swell and make him bleed fairly heavily from the ears...

(since the only other thing that can do that seems to be overusing powers, which doesn't seem likely given that he's still chipped at this point)

To this, supposedly within the next day-ish:

He looks startlingly normal. Tired and upset, yes (as usual, and understandably so), but unharmed.

In fact, shortly after that, both versions of this guy are not-concussed enough to play chess?

(see: the change in hairstyle)

Like. I know characters aren't real, but for reference: I smacked my head on the ice two years ago and got a moderately bad concussion from it. I was stuck in bed for 2+ weeks because I couldn't function (in like...multiple ways).

But somehow this guy is well enough to play chess and formulate an escape plan within a day or so? I don't buy it.

In fact, based on the visible symptoms and likely point of impact...

That injury puts him at risk of death:

And you'd probably go "Oh but James, One chats with El about Papa hurting him, though, so those two ought to be the same guy" to which I'd go "This guy? This guy shouldn't be able to do that". Regenerative healing or not, he should be knocked on his ass for a while (see: Two after the shock collar incident, which was arguably a less severe injury), especially with a device like Soteria in him inhibiting only Papa knows what.

Actually, given that we supposedly start NINA on Sept. 4th, 1979 and the massacre happens on Sept. 8th...I'd say, if we're being shown things even somewhat chronologically, he shouldn't come back at all. If he's not dead, then he should be down for the count.

And here comes the tentative theory bit:

I wonder if he doesn't come back. Can we say for certain what happened to this version of One? He's likely not the One playing chess or asking El if she wants a challenge. He clearly isn't even well enough to be standing anytime soon.

And so, in a sort-of backtrack-y topic-shift way, I want to address the scene that we know directly precedes the plinko/torture scene.

Now...I know I, personally, have always wondered why they kept One around for so long when he's practically useless to them. What if they were just waiting for the next One to pop up? Something about Sith always coming in pairs, master and apprentice...Brenner's got a fair bit of Palpatine coding, after all.

And Brenner knows One isn't loyal to him. Brenner knows One is making moves in silence or whatever. So, like I said (except in SW terms), how improbably would it be that he was just biding his time with One until he could find a new "apprentice" and discard him, someone to replace his first, failed "student"?

I have more to say about Brenner and Palpatine (and William Bell, for that matter), but that's a matter for another post (I can only fit so many pictures, and it would be a real tangent anyway).

All this to say:

With One proving himself disloyal and a threat to Brenner's authority, which Brenner is clearly shown to be aware of:

And with El having defeated Brenner's current most promising student:

Only to immediately follow up with this torture/injury scene...

I think there's a fair chance that this version of One may have died or been killed.

Which would, then, be sufficient motivation to prompt a massacre scenario to both paint Brenner in a trustworthy light/re-center El's loyalty and get El to step into her full powers/take One's place as Brenner's most powerful test subject, much akin to Sith apprenticeship turnover.

This would solve not only the question of why this type of scenario might happen, but also the question of where One, in this version, might have gone.

the fun part of having both Intense Interests Disorder(times two!) and a deep seated shame over my interests and generally my existence is that my "restraining myself" is other people's "wow, you really like this thing, huh?"

which truthfully doesn't help with the whole "letting go of shame" and "learning to be more open" thing

A package courier found shot in the head near Goodsprings has reportedly regained consciousness and made a FULL RECOVERY.

a sketch turned into a full portrait of my amnesiac f:nv courier, caravan! reports of his recovery were...greatly exaggerated. with no memory of who he was before, a nasty bit of brain damage, plus an identity crisis while he's trying to track down the bastard that shot him makes for tough living.

but he meets a fellow ghost in the novac dinosaur who helps him as much as he helps the sniper. (and they become hopelessly codependent.)

been playing with this concept (link), currently in the form of a 3-part 30-line poem but like. i have substantially more to say on the subject lol

[an-organized-confusion]

Me: Dammit. Brain. Come ON. WRITE.

Mel (That Goth Chick; Dark/Main Creativity), after looking at more Remus fan art: How bout you draw iZ!Remus murderizing some Dead Enders?

Me: Yes, I'd love to but- *angrily gestures at giant pile of art/writing ideas that just keeps getting bigger.*

Mel, giggling: Oh, what's one more to the pile.

Prudence (The Nurse; basically an Analoceit fusion of fxns): Wow. Okay. This is a ticket to choice paralysis town.

Me: Aaand water is WET.

Liam, prancing into frame (The Hippie; Light Creativity): Don't forget to work on that Gymrat!Dukexiety drawing! Don't they make the cutest couple?

Mel, having a moment of realization and starts to whine some more: O-oh yeah... we had that Promethean!Patton thing to do. Religiosity is haaard...

Prudence: And you will be covering a very sensitive subject matter. You need to tread carefully on that one.

Me, scowling: PRUDENCE. THIS IS YOUR FAULT.

Prudence: Whatever do you mean? I'm just doing my job ensuring you've done your research. Psychology fascinates you on good day, anyways.

Me: Don't you dare use my special interests against me, man.

Prudence: I'm only trying to help.

Mel, eyeing Prudence: Yeah well, I'm just waiting on sOMEONE to digest the material so I can finish that thing.
