#feeling when to take breaks

[adhdlivedexp]

Maybe Im doing it wrong but I don’t find the pomodoro technique helpful particularly with studying…

The constant stopping and starting kinda just disrupts my focus too much since I struggle so much with task initiation in the first place.

Rather than relying on a timer I rely on when I start to feel like I’m really getting over looking over research articles, that’s my cue to game for maybe 30 mins which acts as an almost complete reset mentally and Im able to refocus again.

Once I have the momentum I know not to disrupt it and just wait till I feel myself getting over it, not till Im at the point of wanting to hurl my computer at someone’s head and kill anyone that as much as breaths near me because of how frustrated I’ve become because I’ve spent all my resources and am then running on empty. If I get to that point i know it’s time for a nap and avoiding anything else for the rest of the day that requires sustained focus, I generally just end up respecting whatever my ADHD wants if it gets to that point so I don’t risk burning myself out.

i wrote an interactive poem for my girlfriend in 3 parts. she said you need to read it.

go here: take only the final quiz or take all 3. i don't mind. it's sad, though. this is a poem about choice. about fate and mental illness and how love fits inside of all of it. this is a poem about a long dark hallway. mostly this is a poem about mango sushi rolls.

good luck. i love you. despite it all, i'm hopeful.

ANKETHIA, THE GRANDMOTHER OF TRANQUILITY

( character is a woman, she/her ! )

feeling the hype for the new predator films so i've decided to revisit my main yautja OC's new design! i've been working on her on and off for a couple of months now. took a break from my current WIPs to just have fun and finally give this big ol' lady the reference she deserves!

enjoy some lore on ankethia :)

Ankethia is the respected leader and ancient of the secluded and mysterious clan of "Resting Blade". Located in the ruins of an abandoned moon, Ankethia had founded Resting Blade thousands of years ago as a sanctuary and a place of retirement for elderly warriors such as herself and provided asylum for travelers or warriors who needed it as well. Even some Bad Bloods have found a place at Resting Blade. Prior to founding her clan, Ankethia was dedicated to the hunt like many others.

In her prime, Ankethia was nothing short of a beast, a revered warrior known for slaying multiple Xenomorph queens alongside her wife, Mak'arhu. The two of them were an unconventional yet deadly duo. Unfortunately, Mak'arhu had succumbed to illness and died in Ankethia's arms. This did not deter her, however. Following the death of Mak'arhu, Ankethia set out on extinguishing an unknown amount of hives in memory of her fallen mate. She would hunt until her body told her that it was time to stop, until her heart was full and she was content.

Currently, Ankethia lives out the last of her days not in bloodshed and glory, but in peace and tranquility (and a little partying here and there!). Ankethia is quite the diva, preferring to live in luxury, gorging herself in home-brewed winery and only hunting when she wants a good meal. She ensures the same luxury for all those who seek refuge at Resting Blade.

Do you see viktor and elsa’s relationship as platonic or romantic?

Okay so how long do you have

My personal interpretation is that they have feelings for each other... I go back and forth on how to contextualize that but I don't feel limited to one interpretation either, it's fun to consider different scenarios and I think their relationship is pretty ambiguous regardless. I love their characters and history and the way they seem to share a really unique and meaningful bond so I enjoy it any way you spin it, but I think them having feelings for each other adds this additional layer of tension and tragedy

I almost see them being friends as too straightforward and I don't think they're the kind of people who can have uncomplicated relationships. Even if Elsa wasn't married, with the circumstances of Viktor's separation from his wife I can't imagine him with a healthy attitude about having any kind of romantic feelings let alone being in a "normal" relationship again. But at the same time I think she would naturally fall into that hole in his life like how Ivy did for his daughter. Whereas even though Elsa has her husband and brother I'm not sure if she shares that "common ground" with them that she says she has with Viktor

My vision is that they seem to connect in a way they don't with other people and they care about each other a lot but in a way that can never be fully realized. Anyway to answer your question: Yes

the eddie kissing buck first propaganda needs to be stopped at all cost ✋I know i know, i'm probably going to be taken out back and shot several times BUT hear me out:

buck needs to get off that squeaky spinning wheel and for that he needs to be the one initiating Something -either love confession or kiss or both i'm not picky- because as my good friend Bobby (#rip) said he's always been the one going with the flow and not knowing how he even got into a relationship in the first place so him breaking that pattern is essential to his own personal growth. he hasn't initiated a first kiss on screen a single time. he's always been either caught by surprise (taylor and tommy), or been asked out on a date without necessarily expecting it (ali and natalia), and even his first date with abby mostly happened because of external pressure (hen and athena cornering them), and she ended up being the one to kiss him first later on.

and for eddie it's the opposite, he's always been the one initating pretty much everything with his love interests: calling shannon in the first place and then kissing her first, asking ana and marisol out on a date. He's always had to make that choice for himself, and buck pretty much jumped any time someone showed interest in him and only started considering his own feelings when things started to get rocky in his relationships. So them actually switching that because buck is that sure of his feelings for the first time, oh that would be so juicy, so good, so delicious.

anyway this is not me starting discourse ❌ because i hate that but just me officially campaigning (at the very last minute) for buck initiating the love confession and/or their first kiss. thank you for your consideration 🙏

I can't wait to see How Humans Court. I love the way you capture emotions and tenderness in your art

When I made the post about hhc, I told you to NOT get your hopes up because it was just an idea and I wanted to share the doodles for the fun of it. It wasn't an announcement. I told you not to wait for it! I'm too busy running two comics, making a third one on the side would be just madness. That being said...

It's done. 😐 I started it last month and now it's done. I just don't know when to post it.

a lolcow is obviously a bad and harmful thing but studying weird people online is a wonderful and soul enriching experience. but if u treat the fun of it as a product and engage with them to get more of this product, if youre "milking" the "lolcow", youre fucked. youre going down the path of darkness. it needs to be aetherial and loose. the better alternative is looking at lolbirds instead which is quite beautiful cuz, like birdwatching, its a process where u do not enact power and force over ur subject to make it show u what u want, you just let them naturally come by and show off their plumage (10000 near identically composed deviantart illustrations of different kids show character crying while getting knead into dough and baked[this happened in a single episode of a show the artist saw when they were 4]) and then u maybe show some of ur favorite feathers of theirs to your close group of friends and then let them pass on with the wind and u keep them as a sweet memory ❤
