Fave Marauders song? ☣️

hi! okay, so im assuming you mean a song i associate with each marauder? (this is a long answer ahaha, i like to talk)

also, if you want me to do more of these for any other characters or any ships, let me know!! this was a lot of fun to think about and write <333

ill start with james. the first song (because i cannot just pick one) would have to be 'peace' by taylor swift. hes a bundle of energy, and he tends to act before he thinks (see: wand left on couch.) "[danger's] just around the corner darling, cause it lives in me. no i could never give you peace." but also hes a lover, and he would do anything for the people he cares for. "im a fire and ill keep your brittle heart warm if your cascade ocean wave blues come" etc. theres still that little bit of uncertainty in him though; "would it be enough if i could never give you peace?" its him.

similarly, though, i think of him when i hear 'epiphany' from the same album. idk if its because i associate it with the first wizarding war and therefore james, but i just- its him. it just is.

i also hc james to have some level of mental health struggles, whether it be anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder. so, in my head, both 'talk too much' (specifically the ramble/bridge) and 'gemini moon' by reneé rapp scream james potter. i think 'gemini moon' would be something he'd try to hide relating to, because in his head hes supposed to be perfect, hes supposed to be a rock for everyone else. hes the golden boy of gryffindor tower, yknow. these also feel more like they relate to the modern/muggle aus i like to read though

on a similar note: 'mirrorball' by taylor swift. hes always putting on this show to make people smile, to help people, to make them laugh. he adapts to be what people need, but when he finally snaps, when everything just becomes too much, he doesnt just break - he shatters. "i know they said the end is near but im still on my tallest tiptoes" this could also relate to the war; he knows voldemort is targeting him, lily, and harry, but hes still trying to keep positive. "they called off the circus, burned the disco down" all the joy from hogwarts is gone because of the war but "im still trying everything to get you laughing at me" he wants to keep people smiling. he wants people to have hope.

also, although im trying to avoid ships, major shoutout to pretty much every jeremy shada song to exist, because theyre so james potter-coded regarding his love life and the way he loves people

alright, imma move onto sirius before i ramble too far. this first song ties a little into james though - 'seven' by taylor swift. specifically, james talking to sirius about his family and inviting him to live with the potters instead. have a listen and youll agree

still on his relationship with his family, sirius is definitely a 'family line' by conan gray sort of guy. he would scream it at the top of his lungs.

furthermore, sticking w conan gray, i love 'found heaven' as a sirius song, too. after spending so much of his life being told all the things wrong with him, only to discover his sexuality - yet another thing i think he'd have issues accepting about himself - he eventually does find that acceptance. "youll never get your mama's wedding ring. father always said you ruined everything. but you prayed, begged and prayed, heart unchanged" "dont be scared little child, you're no demon" "your heart is breaking as you leave that door. you never meant to start this holy war. but youre trapped, pack your bags, dont look back" just all of it. its him.

on a more positive note, though, i see 'boys & girls' by conan gray as his song too. again, im trying to keep away from talking about specific ships and focus on the individuals, but this works even more if you ship wolfstar. imagine remus singing this about sirius. as much as we all like to say remus is a cassanova of gryffindor, hes a lanky nerd covered in scars. he isnt typically/stereotypically "attractive", not like sirius. sirius, who is saught after by many, but never dares to look at his friend like that, because how could he? theyre friends, and thats all. right?

that leads nicely into remus. i dont have as many options to hand for remus as james and sirius, so ill just go through all that i can remember off the top of my head. most obviously: 'the view between villages' by noah kahan. i feel like i dont even need to explain this one. its all him. you could look at it from the beginning of poa when he returns to hogwarts, or you could look at it from when he goes back to hogwarts to fight in the final battle to ultimately die. either way, its him.

god okay i know i said i want to avoid ships but i just have to throw this in here. 'in the kitchen' by reneé rapp is so remus after he loses sirius, either to azkaban or the veil. give it a listen and tell me im wrong.

its a bit of a sad one, but 'the next right thing' from frozen 2 is kinda giving me remus vibes. like, especially after the first war, all his friends are dead, or traitors. and now dumblefuck is asking him to come back to hogwarts to teach his dead friends' son? what else was he to do but drag himself out of his misery and put harry first? he didnt have his friends left to fight for anymore, but he could still make a difference for harry.

'memories' by conan gray is also giving remus. i could see it being about sirius maybe coming to him after he escapes azkaban or after the prank, but i actually see it more as his thoughts after dumblefuck visits him to get him to teach at hogwarts. obv not every line of the song, but the main idea of it. "i wish that you would stay in my memories, but you show up today just to ruin things. i wanna put you in the past cause im traumatised, but youre not letting me do that"

that was... a much smaller amount of songs for remus than i thought i had. does anyone have any suggestions?

for peter, i had to do a little more thinking, honestly. 'i almost do' by taylor swift makes me think of him bc like, do you ever think peter considered trying to reach out to remus at all during those 12 years between james' death and sirius' escape from azkaban? i know it probably would not have gone well for him if he had but like... ive thought about it.

similarly, 'miss you' by conan gray. does peter have regrets about what he did? maybe. is he allowed to miss his friends after what he did? maybe. so much of this song does feel like what peter might have been thinking following the betrayal. "is it wrong to now decide i miss you?" yeah, maybe buddy.

but then maybe he wouldnt have, yknow. so my next thought was 'crossing the line' from tangled the series. its so incredibly peter & james coded (with james as rapunzel)

on a more fanon side of things, i think my answer would be 'bruises' by reneé rapp. if we're going with the whole thing where sirius especially, but the other marauders as a whole treat peter as lesser (i dont think thats canon, and honestly im not a huge fan of the hc either, but its still something i now associate w peter) then 'bruises' really captures how he'd feel. "all my friends make sweet fun of me...sure im down to be the joke, metaphorically though you could flip me inside out and it would show black purple and green" its his song if you hc this

finally, i put forward 'run' by taylor swift and ed sheeran. i want to think that, before turning to voldemort, peter tried to convince his loved ones to just escape the war. leave it for someone else to fight and die in. he wanted to survive, and he wanted his friends to survive too, if he could. ultimately, his friends wanted to stay. james and sirius had been wanting to join the order more than anything after they graduated, and remus felt he owed a debt, if nothing else. they werent going to leave or sacrifice their moral compass to save themselves. so peter ran, alone.

im going to leave it here for now, but again please feel free to ask for more characters or any ships!! i have songs for a couple other characters, i think, and a few ships, so ill do my best to answer what i can <33

hi! i was wondering if you have any tips to stay organized and stay on task? i’ve been doing a short online course this year and have really struggled to ACTUALLY bring myself to do the work, as assignments and lessons are not under any time constraints i just don’t do it. i also have adhd so get bored or distracted easily. do you have any tips for me?

This is really close to me because I also have ADHD. I have both inattentive and hyperactive type. *As a result, this academic tip guide will be a guide for people with ADHD and not neurotypical people, without disability. There is a difference.*

I am doing online as well this semester.

1. I create a schedule. If I do not create a schedule, I will be unproductive the entire day. So, what will help you is to do things in orderly fashion.

For example, at 12p - I will do this assignment/watch this lecture. You have to dictate what time you’re doing everything. Then, you also have to block out technology distractions while you are working. 

-> Even if you’ve gotten halfway through the day with no schedule, write down or block off times on your digital calendar for what you are going to do at each time. ADHD is easier to tackle if you break things down into smaller tasks.

*Pro tip that I almost forgot: before you do anything, wear your day clothes. Don’t wear pajamas. Actually getting dressed or even doing hair/makeup changes things.

2. Download the Forest app after you have created your schedule. I consistently recommend this because it works in increasing productivity. It allows you to set it for however long you’re doing this task, say 30 minutes.

-> Why?: It will block all apps on your phone for (insert time here) to plant a tree, and if you leave the app your “tree” will die. Eventually, the more sessions you do, the more points you will gain to plant different plants, and eventually plant real trees around the world.

3. Have a list (& a planner) as well. Not only is the schedule creating structure, but the list creates even more structure so you know what you need to get done for the day. It also helps you not fall victim to the classic symptom of forgetting. Each day, you should write down what you WANT to get done and create your own times to look at lecture and assignments. Have goals for the day.

For example: complete assignment 2.

If you do not have expectations with yourself before the day begins, your ADHD will kind of take over and do something else. I have structure to my day. I set a timer to wake up at the same time. I take my ADHD medicine 90 minutes before my final wake up time, and I do my morning routine once it kicks in. Having the same routine helps.

-> Focus on your goals. Don’t be super harsh about the times.

-> Don’t overwhelm with how many things on to do list. Again, break it up into small tasks. For example, one part being: Wash dishes or fold laundry. It makes it less overwhelming to your brain and gives you a choice of which task. Typical non ADHD people just tell you to prioritize tasks but that doesn’t work for us. Do it in a random order and it gets the job done.

4. TAKE BREAKS! The other side to this is making sure that you give yourself adequate breaks.

*For hyperfocus, wait til your hyperfocus has started to wear off. Use it to your advantage for peak productivity. It is no joke.*

-> The misconception is that some people with ADHD are lazy and as a result, some ADHDers won’t take breaks. You can take a break. Healthy, long breaks do more for you long term.

-> Have a timer set. For example, after a 45 minute session or an hour session, I will take a break to do another task that has nothing to do with studying, like laundry, eating a snack, or stretching. Then after that task is done, I will go back to studying.

5. Have a workspace. Only do work at this space. I do schoolwork at my living room table and it is perfect. I do not study in my room because that is my sanctuary for relaxation and rest, not productivity. Make an effort to make the workspace clean, with your supplies - laptop, notebooks, pens, etc - readily available.

-> Once I get to my workspace, everything for the morning is already done. I’ve done my morning routine, so all there is left to do is hydrate while I study.

6. Recognize if you have adequate energy to do the task. Sometimes, with ADHD you may neglect your needs. If you are not getting enough rest, here are some tips:

•Bed should be for rest only.

•Blackout curtains

•Lavender essential oil, I have a diffuser but you can also put it on your pillow

•Background noise: pick what you want, lo fi music, rain sounds, binaural beats, singing bowls

•If all else fails, ADHD is often comorbid with other illnesses, meaning you could have a form of depression causing insomnia for example. This should be considered if you are having long term issues and symptoms.

7. Don’t overdo it. We are not neurotypical. Executive dysfunction is real - meaning our brains actually shut down when it perceives a task to be mundane.

-> You do not have to fit everything into one schedule for the sake of being “productive”. Each day should be what you know you can do, and there are different days to tackle different goals.

-> When you feel like you cannot continue, which is literally a symptom of ADHD, sit still for a few minutes.

8. Have a “What I Did Today” List. Because of how ADHD actually makes us feel, we don’t realize how much work we have put in. ADHD actually can be explained easily, we have about 2 dopamine workers showing up to work while most people are at maximum capacity. We are working overtime to do our best, even on medicine. So, acknowledging what we did today is good and encouraging, or at least reflecting in a journal.

9. Play music. It’s recommended to play study music without words because with ADHD we will submerge ourselves into the playlist of nostalgic 90s R&B. I recommend lo fi hip hop on YouTube, video game instrumentals, classical music, or jazz instrumentals. Whatever gets you going just do it!

General ADHD tips:

•Rewrite lecture notes and type the lecture notes.

•Color code with bright colors and pretty drawings or calligraphy

•Instead of telling yourself “I need to take notes” which usually leads to procrastination say “Rewrite lecture notes and emphasize main points” ... this is useful in your to do list but in everyday goals

•Generally try to get your assignments done ahead of time if there is structure to certain courses, if not, again, stick to the schedule. If you slip one day off your schedule then don’t beat yourself up. Breathe!!!

•Side effect of most ADHD meds is that you’re not hungry so buy easy things to eat like muscle milk or yogurt and granola or smoothies so you can sustain yourself

•Get a dry erase board to show what you need to do for the day and put it on the fridge with command strips

•To avoid forgetting things, put them at a table near the door where you leave your apartment/dorm/house.

•Don’t overthink the time it takes to get ready, often that’s why ADHDers are late. Better to be super early than late though - have a routine set so you know how long each task takes - for example “I know a shower takes me 15 mins, washing my face takes 60 seconds and a few more including sunscreen/moisturizer, etc...”

•In that same grain, set timers for going to the bathroom, showering, etc just in case you one day hyperfocus and push yourself too far

•Open the blinds!!!!

•Clean your room and tidy up your space. A cluttered space impacts your mental health in a really negative way. Your space reflects your mental state at times as well, so check in with yourself. Have a specific day where you know you’re going to clean, but ADHD sometimes gives us bursts of cleaning so take advantage of that as well.

•Anytime your water bottle empties refill it. Have your water bottle or mason jar next to your workspace, and drink 5-10 gulps. Seriously. ADHD depends a lot on hydration, especially if you are on medicine which naturally dehydrates you. If you do not stay hydrated, you’ll get that massive headache mid day and crash sooner. A lot of times, lack of productivity can be due to not drinking enough water.

•If you don’t take medication, then sometimes you may notice you love coffee, and that’s because it’s a stimulant. Too much of anything is not good, but balance it with water. If you’re going to use coffee to kinda “medicate” then do it close to when you’re going to be productive.

•Setting yourself up to do a task rather than envisioning the overwhelming act of doing the entire action. “Okay, lets just get up and get the first step down, such as opening the laptop or wetting the toothbrush.” Baby steps.

•Take advantage of accommodations! Your college more than likely has an Office of Disability Services. Also, email your professors...they’re actually just as stressed as you about classes being online.

•Remember that you’re already trying as hard as you can, so don’t listen to the narrative of “try harder”, “you’re *r word*”, “you’re cheating by using medication”, “just do it,” “it’s easy,” “what’s so hard about it?” or “you’re lazy”. Anyone telling you that, even yourself, is wrong. And DO NOT allow anyone to be ableist, even yourself.

•Validate yourself. Don’t let anyone to do the “I experience that too”/“I know what you mean”/“we ALL have trouble with this!” and they don’t have ADHD. No. It’s our experience, it’s valid, and unlike anything on the planet. If you’re reading this and you don’t have ADHD - no, you do not experience any of the things in my next bullet point.

•Don’t be hard on yourself if you stumble along the way getting this right. ADHD completely changes your executive functioning.

We see the task, but our brain blocks it.

We have something marked down as “important” but our brain tosses it out in the “trash”.

We watch an entire episode of a show, but our brain ignored the entire thing. Our brain picks and chooses what is stimulating, our brain changes our interests.

We have sensory overload, we have no dopamine, we have bursts of curiosity that cannot be contained (often inconvenient) and if interrupted, our brains cannot take it.

People often discount how many things ADHD actually changes because it’s widely misunderstood. I want to take the time to acknowledge that ADHD, formerly known as simply ADD, has different types: primarily inattentive, primarily hyperactive-impulsive, or combined which is what I have. So it’s not “hyper” and “relatable”. It is also not a buzzword to use to describe things. I must put stereotypes and misrepresentations of ADHD to rest.

It impacts us emotionally as well, which most people don’t know... such as rejection dysphoria — extreme sensitivity to being criticized to where our brains self destruct. Our brains don’t regulate emotions well.

ADHDers - do not fall victim to how everyone else operates and call yourself a failure. We have to work twice as hard and the results actually come out brilliant especially with our determination and imaginative ideas that are also seen in autistic individuals, honorable mention!

There’s good days and bad days. There’s literal changes in thinking that other people do not experience. We all collectively know wouldn’t be who we are without ADHD, but we all recognize the challenges. However, it makes me happy to see messages like this so that I can make a difference and hopefully help one person with ADHD, especially of color, at a time stop being so hard on themselves. 💗

You made them to scare us, but now they're ours

Some thoughts from watching that Marvel Power Couple video; my preferences and my fandom experiences.

Focus on queerness and disability in mainstream media as seen though a Marvel fandom lens.

Firstly, I'm a huge Bullseye and villain fan.

Secondly, since we're in the days of huge disclaimers: no, I don't condone: murder, torture, serial killers, rape, and every kind of vileness that character has exhibited in his very long canon (1976, baby!). Nor do I, by some exclusion-based thinking, hate non-white characters, women, non-binary people, non-American, or overtly queer people while favoring my homicidal blue-eyed blond white fuckboy above them due to these reasons.

The last disclaimer being, I'm a white autistic queer immigrant and a grown-ass woman with a history of mental illness in a non-English speaking country in Europe. There, all these disclaimers, set.

I still like them.

I freaking LOVE villain characters and pretty much have since my childhood -- together with its cousins the anti-hero and anti-villain. As I've aged, I've more become able to set my finger on why, and what I get from fandom when I write, draw, ship, and creatively interact with these characters.

The easy answer is representation and validation in all their buzzword glory and shorthand.

And, no, I do not mean for *evil* and horrible people. I mean for the many things heroes have not been allowed to be since the Hays Code, even if that is finally starting to come apart.

Initially, I recognized queerness in villains. Queer-coded and sub-textual, or predatory, and stereotyped, but still queerness. For all you gen-zers, it's pretty new to have out and open queer people in mainstream media. And even when queer heroic/good characters were introduced they were marginalized, minimized, and underdeveloped -- while the villain could swish in with all the 'move bitch I'm gay' energy, own the story, drive it, and be a badass motherfucker who didn't need to be nice, safe, hetero-normative, and ~unproblematic~ to get past the censors. AS WELL AS stick around as a reoccurring person with goals, feelings, and a personality that didn't revolve around being the Gay Character.

Later, some of these villains I fell in love with were made officially queer -- and that's good from one point of view of increasing queer characters in media but bad from another as it strengthens the Hays code lie that queer = villain/scary. In Marvel, we have Mystique and Loki both of who were on-panel certified queer in the 2000s (both known shapeshifters too, blurring identity in general).

To bring this back to the example at hand, Bullseye, he is a character that has been queer-coded since his conception: artistic, flamboyantly theatrical, obsessed with the male hero Daredevil, whom he calls handsome and sweetheart, whose girlfriends he jealously kills -- and early stated to have 'no interest in money or women' (only the kill and the ppl he kills). All because the creators/writers thought queer ppl are scary and why not give the serial killer assassin a sprinkle of that to scare the straights and the queers both?

But instead in my eyes, they created something I absolutely love instead of scaring me away from the gay. And for a lot of queer people, that's the case with queer-coded villains. You made them gay so they're ours now. Disney villainesses are huge in drag. The Babadok is gay, and horror is one of the most loved genres by the queer community. They were queer coded and as time went they were embraced as a part of the community.

Again, I'm not claiming that Bullseye is a known queer icon. He really isn't, but one of the reasons I love him is his lack of hetero-normativity, outlier nature, and showmanship. As noted, not all queer-coded characters are embraced by the community, nor do all LGBTQ people enjoy villains or queer-coded characters.

Heroic LGBTQ characters are a thing these days, but as noted, they tend to be allocated into marginalized positions, minimized and underdeveloped still-- and always made as safe as possible for straight media consumption.

Later, I identified with mental illness and neuroatypical characters. Ableism is as insidious and everywhere as homophobia, and like with them "dirty queers"; disability and mental illness were equated with villainy. The tropes of the madman killer, the evil cripple, the disfigured monstrosity, the psycho, the people punished by God with sickness and deformity were for a long time the villains or at best the hapless victims of media -- and still are. Even in modern blockbuster movies disfigurement, disability, and illness are both signs and motivations of villainy and murder, and causes of horror.

In media, most heroes are not allowed to be any of these things. They were long expected to be physical perfection, and moral exactitude, with no whiff of poor health, or if they did that was overcome with hard work and positivity in their past. Villains were allowed to stay unwell, to struggle and fail, to live with their issues and imperfections without magical fix-its.

For most of us who actually live with mental illness and neuroatypical conditions we do just that: live with it. It doesn't turn us into villains, but neither do we magically become perfect and well. And there is, for me, a validation in seeing that, and in addressing living with those conditions.

And often the tropes of the evil queer and the evil disfigurement were combined into a trope to maximum codify both with evil.

The disabled community has had an even worse time ridding themselves from the disabled = villainous/scary dichotomy that media and culture have created than the queer community has. And as such the issue of disabled villains is even more set in the mind of the culture as a mental shorthand of not able-bodied = evil/scary. However, some still gravitate to these villains for the very same reasons.

Again, it's problematic, of course, it is, as it is within the queer community. We're fighting the same fight and for many, it feels bad to accept any depictions of disabled and mentally ill villains as it can feel like a step back. I am of the opinion that removing these villains isn't helpful but to add positive portrayals, preferably in the same work of media. To have positive and good representations of disabled, scarred, ill, and norm-breaking characters. And in the beginning, it will probably feel best to stop adding more 'bad' rep until the 'good' rep feels more dominating.

More personally, autism is depicted really poorly in media, and I 100% prefer fanon ASD characters (aka "weird" awkward behaving characters) to intended/canon ones because the rep is so poor and insulting. So, I get it. I get not wanting to identify a single bit with what is portrayed in media when it's THAT BAD.

But I still love bad rep villains.

Tying this back to my enjoyment of Bullseye, he is on-panel mentally ill and frequently disabled and injured. And I do not mean his homicidal blood lust and murdering, but his depression, anxiety, psychosis, hallucinations, catatonia, and behaviors that do not fit the mold of a mentally well person as well as his multitude of injuries and paralysis story lines.

He is given various diagnoses from borderline to bipolar, or just plain ol' 'psychopath' the scary term for antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). He on-panel has to deal with his poor mental health. He's allowed to break down and fail. He's allowed to NEVER get well. And that draws me in, that hits close to home in ways, and it's identifying.

In the series he's in, there's some counterpoint, the heroic protagonist Daredevil is blind and depressed, as a mirror to Bullseye's own mental illness and frequent disability (paralysis 4 TIMES). It's one way of managing the issues that these tropes have.

Now is this ableist and problematic? Probably. The bad person is X in media, thus X people are bad in IRL, and X means you're bad in media and around we go.

But back to the main point. Alright, once upon a time, the near-only rep of queer and disabled/mentally ill characters were the villains. But that's changed, right?

Yes, and no. There are now out and open queer characters, good mentally ill characters, and some disabled characters. Not that many where all intersect. But sure. They exist.

But as the point was made by others, these depictions are often watered down to their most insipid, flavorless, and safe version. Because rep isn't just that a character exists with the label of that minority. Rep is about these characters feeling like interesting people, with their own motivations, drives, goals, and stories that have often not that much to do with their labels or their struggles. Stories that are as diverse as any others, not centering just on sexuality, wellness, and disability or the consequences of others hating and fearing them. There's a reason why the X-Men are an allegory for minorities.

Bullseye's not good rep. But I think he's a good character who doesn't have to be sanitized or made palatable. He's not the queer guy, he's not even the ill person, he's Daredevil's constant pain in the ass and a formidable foil to him. He's motivated, driven, and has active story lines that don't have his sexuality/wellness as the end goal but as contributing factors in his life. And dammit, he has fun when he does what he does best, it's meant to be scary and evil but what it ends up being is so very alive. I enjoy that.

As such, for me, it wouldn't make that much difference if he is or isn't canon labeled as queer -- if anything with the current climate that would likely make subpar writers write him off as the gay villain. If I want on-panel queerness done right, at this point, I trust fandom much more. As noted by the implicit outing of Bullseye by having him and Daken have a very toxic relationship where Daken's pheromones enhanced Bullseye's feelings toward him (which I enjoyed but damn was it a clusterfuck too).

To draw another quick example from this, Daken Akihiro and his sliding scale of self-expression and drive. When he's at his worst villainy he's overtly in-text queer, unwell to suicide, and driven to grand goals; but since he's been put on a redemption train to heroism frequently his sexuality is toned down and his personal goals focus on romantic coupling and wellness. Now, I'm not saying that he's not allowed to find love or get well as a story line, but that he loses his previous interests, pro-activeness, and extroverted drives, ending up in a safe white picket territory where he doesn't challenge anyone in several of these instances.

Villains still are the ones that get to be pushing at the borders; bold, brash, messy, unapologetic, and liminal -- they get to be the outliers in society in all its meanings.

For good and for worse, media makes villains strange because strange is scary, but for so many of us strange people, that makes them ours.

P.S.

Heroic characters can be good too.

Murderbot Biology Facts

General

There are standardisation guides for constructs so even SecUnits produced by different companies have the same height and build.

SecUnits are probably tall. Murderbot is bigger than the humans who might have threatened Tapan if it hadn’t been there in the transient housing. The cubicles for SecUnits are bigger than for ComfortUnits even though SecUnits also have lockers and racks for weapons. Murderbot has to borrow a jacket from a “big enough” guard.

The facial features are based on the genetic material and unique to each SecUnit.

SecUnits are always described as leaking “blood and fluid” when injured, while humans usually just bleed unless they’re actually eviscerated. Either this “fluid” is something specific to the workings of SecUnits or any SecUnit wounded enough to be leaking is likely wounded enough to be leaking a whole bunch of stuff.

No digestive system or reproductive system.

Murderbot has much, much clearer awareness of the inside of its body than a human, often able to monitor things and describe physical reactions with details of exactly what just happened, such as a release of adrenaline or a bunch of neural pathways opening.

Murderbot can consciously regulate its own temperature but this can fail due to damage, and it does need its own body heat.

SecUnits don’t need to move to be comfortable like humans do.

Support Structure

The support structure is made of “synthetic bone and metal”, at least in the arms and legs.

It has ribs, implying a skeleton like structure.

It has a skull, which has better shock absorption than a human one, allowing SecUnits to avoid concussion.

A blade lodges in its palm, meaning it has multiple parts in there, possibly similar to human bones, rather than a solid mass.

A damaged knee joint clicks and grinds, appearing to be bent out of shape, rather than shattering like bone.

Musculature

It does have muscle actually described as muscle in its back.

It does not appear to have muscle in its arms. When detaching its hand it describes inorganic parts that need uncoupling and which are necessary for leverage, connecting to the big joints in its arm. These seem to do a similar job to flexors, which would be attached to muscles, but are not organic and no muscles or flexors are mentioned as needing to be torn away.

This may explain why it has no problem carrying Bharadwaj with most of the organic parts of its arm damaged or gone.

It has trouble standing with a wound in its thigh, and damage to “something in [its] abdomen” leaves it worried it won’t be able to pick Bharadwaj up again if it puts her down. Unclear whether these are muscles or something else, but they seem to be needed in a way the organic bits of the arms aren’t.

Lungs

Lungs are very different to a human’s, all the connections are different, and it needs less air.

It can’t expel very much air from its lungs at once.

It can segregate part of its lungs from the rest (a way it could fake eating).

Its breathing doesn’t naturally change in response to air quality or vary naturally as much as human breathing does, it has to write code to do this.

It can hibernate if it runs out of air.

It can hold its breath voluntarily and at one point seems to do so from stress, letting out a breath once something is solved.

It has a sense of smell, which appears to work like a human one and is quite useful.

Circulatory System

There’s no mention of a heart, which might not mean much, but despite Murderbot showing most symptoms of anxiety there’s never any mention of a fast heartbeat. Either its heart is more regulated than a human’s, even under stress, or something quite different pumps its blood around.

However, its circulatory system can be affected by stress, usually causing it to go cold at the extremities.

The use of “synthetic bone” may be related to needing bone marrow if you have blood.

It has adrenaline and when it measures its “levels” these are probably blood chemistry, since if they’re off it’s likely to be agitated.

Its circulatory system can “purge fear causing chemicals”.

A temporary shutdown also appears to purge stress chemicals.

Its veins (and presumably arteries) can seal to prevent bleeding, this may also be why being hung upside-down doesn’t affect it like it would a human.

It has capillaries, although I doubt they need to seal.

It sweats when nervous and it’s not clear where this fluid is replaced from. Possibly it just winds up in medical before it becomes a problem, usually. Or maybe it filters water from the air when it breathes.

The cubicle does contain “repair and resupply leads” which, considering the amount of blood and fluid it loses, must include water.

It does say its body is self-regulating and it doesn’t need “food, water or much air” but I don’t think it’s counting injuries in that.

Nervous System

The brain is a mixture of robotics and human neural tissue, this is why SecUnits are made. The human neural tissue seems to be enough to develop human mental illnesses (anxiety, depression and probably PTSD).

Despite the eyes appearing to be inorganic, the ability to interpret images is partly organic.

The governer module is a literal implant lodged in the brain and it’s unclear whether the education modules are as well. Murderbot clearly can learn from books, but I’m not sure anyone would think to teach a SecUnit like that rather than inserting hardware.

Its nerve pathways are much harder to detach when it removes its hand than the inorganic components, but it seems to be able to get most of them to join up and attach again which implies they’re at least partly inorganic.

Energy weapons which cause incapacitating nerve pain don’t affect a SecUnit as much as a human and aren’t incapacitating. It may just be a matter of degree, though, punishment from the governer module is described as similar to an energy weapon.

Pain appears to be felt organically but mediated by inorganic parts, with its inorganic parts shut down or failing Murderbot feels more pain, losing the ability to turn it down, rather than losing the ability to feel it.

It usually loses consciousness during a shutdown even though, technically, its organic parts aren’t affected. Murderbot says they “usually sleep” through a shutdown.

Inorganic Parts

Eyes appear to be inorganic cameras, although they move and focus like a human’s making video shot through them jerky. (Miki’s eyes, described as large globes, probably don’t do this.)

Audio is also inorganic, Murderbot loses both visual and audio when its inorganic parts are shut down, although it retains its sense of touch.

“Visual, audio and scan” tend to be the three senses Murderbot lumps together, regarding them as robotic senses and the ones it can use through its drones as well as its own input. There is presumably some internal hardware associated with scan.

The feet are mentioned as inorganic and not looking much like augments a human would have. There is flesh over the knees, but possibly not the shins (Murderbot mentions an energy weapon shot to the shin just being annoying, but energy weapons don’t often work on it anyway.)

Considering Murderbot is heavier than a human, can move much faster and run without tiring for much longer periods of time its feet must be able to take a pounding and are probably made to absorb shock without losing momentum. It can also jump over people, or onto ten foot robots, so it has some good propulsion.

It has a built in compartment hidden under its ribs (this sounds less than useful during a SecUnit’s normal job unless the company is ordering it to steal from clients).

Its guns unfold out of its forearms, but probably not that far since a bad angle can leave it unable to shoot without hitting its own hands.

Despite this it’s able to destroy someone else’s energy weapon with a pulse while holding it in its hand. This may be something different from the gun.

It has an internal battery which has a very long life. The regular recharge cycles don’t seem to require it to plug in and are probably about charging the rest of its body from the battery rather than charging the battery.

It can charge other things from its gun port, but needs a recharge cycle afterwards.

It mentions plugging itself into things like the hopper and the first ship it hitches a ride from, but only before ART disables its neck port. After that it sticks to using the feed.

Skin

Murderbot describes this as its “human skin” and the skin does seem to be more like a standard human’s than its other organic parts are like human ones.

It was hairless until ART changed that.

It’s useful for sensitivity, especially in the fingers, but doesn’t seem to be any tougher than human skin and gets regenerated a lot.

how I survived my first semester at uni

somehow I made it through. here’s what helped:

(this is going to differ for everyone based on how you study best & what subjects you're studying! I am a science major so business/law majors probably won't benefit much from this, sorry <3 )

I. NOTES

figure out what type of note taking works best for you

—I started out by handwriting my notes. It was fine until my handwriting disintegrated and even I couldn't read what was happening. Also, carrying around a whole bunch of notebooks and folders got way too heavy for my back.

—I then switched to taking notes digitally. It took some getting used to, but now I absolutely love it. I use Notability for pretty much everything.

organisation is your best friend

—I colour-code by subject, e.g. all biology notes are blue and all chemistry notes are green and I swear to god if one more person tells me that biology should be green imma fight a bitch. That also means that my highlighters in each digital notebook are the corresponding colours, so I’m able to see what subject each page is without having to read too much into it.

—I also separate my notes based on type, for example in-class notes, "pretty" notes, and practice sheets are separate categories. Within these categories the aforementioned colour-coding comes into play.

II. STUDYING

I fell in LOVE with flashcards

—I literally have a 20cm high stack of flashcards from my last exam (which I aced btw :) ). It's like that for nearly every exam.

—Speaking of which... some subjects don't work well with flashcards (for me at least) e.g physics and maths. This is something that you can usually figure out early on in the semester.

—Again, organisation will save your life. I use these boxes to separate my cards by subject, then within the box I use coloured cards (of course corresponding to the subject) to separate card types/sub-subjects.

practice exams are there (legally or not...) for a reason

—Practice exams are how I did well in physics (my least favourite subject). I separated all the questions by concept and then learned what I needed to by solving about 10 problems per concept. Same with my maths exam.

—If you have access to more than a couple of past exams you can familiarise yourself with the problems that tend to come up more frequently and how the professor tends to ask certain about certain concepts.

learn where you study best/most efficiently

—I absolutely cannot study at home. Too many distractions plus my bed is so comfortable...

—I found that the library worked perfectly. If I was out of my house then I might as well stay out and study. Also, the general academic atmosphere really helped me with motivation.

—To music or not to music, that is the question. Again, it depends on how and what you are studying. Physics and maths, for example, were just practice problems, so I would listen to music. I would also listen when writing flashcards. When learning flashcards, I'd either listen to rain sounds or absolutely nothing besides the scribbling of pens and the occasional sniffle. It all depends on how you focus best.

Ill. HEALTH

physical health

—Get your blood flowing. When I was in the library studying I would stand up every 45 minutes and go do squats and stretches in the bathroom. This can also help you focus (!).

—Every couple of hours, stand up and walk around for about 5 to 10 minutes. It gives you a little break and gets your blood circulating.

—I started cycling to uni. It is 5km (about half an hour) each way and I don't think I've been fitter in my life. It has done wonders for my mental health too.

—Drink water!! In the library I would only let myself stand up to stretch / pee after I finished an entire water bottle. This was every 45 minutes. I peed a lot.

—If the sun shines, go stand outside for a couple of minutes. This was a rare treat for me because where I live in Germany the winters are grey, grey, and darker grey. You need vitamin C and serotonin. Get some.

mental health

—Sleep. You need it. Trust me. Staying up really late to study for a bit longer before an exam isn't worth it. It'll lead to stupid mistakes that will bring your grade down and leave you feeling even more crappy.

—Take study breaks. If you are feeling mentally tired due to stress/over-studying, go home. Go to sleep. Let yourself sleep. It's worth it. Trying to cram more material in when you just can't do any more will not help you.

—Don't be afraid to not take an exam. At one point, I had 5 exams within 8 days of each other. I decided to not take the 4th one and to instead give myself a break and prepare for the 5th exam. It was the best decision I've made so far in uni. If you are worried about how not taking an exam will affect you in terms of your uni career, talk to an advisor or older student.

—Remember that you are not alone. Make one friend, even just an acquaintance. Reach out to old friends from school. Reach out to someone online, even anonymously. (I’m almost always online if you wanna chat <3 )

nutrition

—I'm really hypocritical for saying this, but eat breakfast. It makes a massive difference in your energy levels throughout the day.

—Eat a goddamn vegetable.

—Coffee can be your best friend but also your worst enemy. Use it responsibly.

—Alcohol is your own choice. Don't let anyone pressure you into drinking. You can have fun with or without it. And if someone tries to get you to drink even after you’ve said no, get the hell out of there.

IV. MISCELLANEOUS

—Sometimes skipping classes is worth it, but it's up to you to make the right choices as to which. I went to a grand total of 3 physics lectures and got a 1,3 on the exam (;

—You don't need to buy textbooks. Ask your classmates & have a look online (;

—BRING A PHONE CHARGER WITH YOU EVERYWHERE. I have a backpack changer and a home changer, and they live in those places.

—Carry painkillers, antacids, etc. around with you. Either you or someone you know will need some.

—Shower, especially if you are staying long days in the library. It will make you feel more alive.

—Find a cafe that you can retreat to when the library makes you want to rip your own eyes out.

—Treat yourself every now and again. Be it ice cream or a nice notebook or a frozen pizza or a fucking avocado, it’ll be worth it.

sometime in the future I’ll make a couple of posts where I’ll go into detail about some of the things I mentioned above (eg how I use Notability, my flashcard system, organisation, etc.)

unless this was absolute shite; if so lmk and I’ll go hide in a hole <3

The Code of Money: There Is Someone Else’s Share in Whatever You Earn

It involves some Family/System Constellations knowledge, a little cognitive hypnotherapy information, and a story from my family’s past that provided the inspiration for writing this article. This story, which I will share later in the article, surprised me. May it will surprise you too. Who knows? The first thing to remember is that there is no way for everyone to earn money in the same way and in equal amounts. This will never happen. Accepting this reality can ease many things. In my opinion, this is the first door that needs to be opened! An Ill-Fated Tragedy: The Dragon Sickness The inspiration for the dragon Smaug in The Hobbit was the dwarf Fafnir in Scandinavian mythology. Dwarves had the habit of hiding their gold in some kind of sickness. Fafnir, however, went a step further and magically transformed himself into a dragon, so he could protect his treasure through terror. However, Fafnir’s story doesn’t survive today because he guarded his treasure—after all, it’s normal to protect what belongs to us. It’s more about how Fafnir protected his treasure. He was so concerned with protecting it that he never allowed it to transform and prosper by spreading it to others and bringing happiness. In Family/System Constellations, money is a constantly flowing and changing concept of trade and exchange. Hoarding money for no purpose goes against this nature, so it will slowly poison you. This is just like Fafnir’s treasure, which he guarded at all costs, and this eventually drove him insane with intoxication. The nature of money is intended to gratify ourselves but also others. You’ll better understand this article’s topic when you read my family’s story later. Fafnir’s focus on guarding his treasure became more important than the treasure itself. It became a kind of neurotic behavior, like in modern psychology. This involves using a behavioral and cognitive model that is useless to life, and it eventually brings unhappiness and insanity. Therefore, in this cycle of neurotic behavior, Fafnir lost his personality and identity, and he became completely seized by his fears. The Fear of not Having Money Some thoughts become entrenched through communal hypnosis, and misunderstandings of these thoughts have spread around the world. Here’s one such example: “I need to save for my retirement.” This sentence taps into traumatic memories recorded in our genes, past, and emotions. It then, erroneously, transforms into something like the following: - “I need to cut down on something to save more money. My saving efforts are limited by my earnings, and I’ve already given up many luxuries. I must cut down on my basic needs as well, such as food and clothing. Yes, yes! I’ll cut down on everything!” When your mentality starts to behave like this, you’ll begin to develop a form of Dragon Sickness, and the money and future you’re trying to safeguard will start to intoxicate you. Then, you’ll start to make not just yourself but also the people around you miserable and distressed, because everything we lack the courage to face will captivate and control us. The main purpose of money is to ensure continuity of life and happiness, but this can transform into valuing unhappiness, restriction, and degradation. Considering all this, no one should assume that I’m talking about surrendering to consumerism and driving the capitalist system mad. Never! I’m talking about making good use of money instead of hoarding it in a way that causes unhappiness. There is a teaching called Buying Money with Money that awaits anyone who seeks such knowledge (See: Finance knowledge and being an investor). Of course, this is only one dimension. Discovering where the concept of money belongs in our souls will make things easier. There’s just one thing we should never forget. A Fafnir hides inside all of us, ready to emerge from time to time. If we refuse to face this, if we deny his existence, and if we fear turning into a Fafnir one day, we’ll inevitably turn into one. It’s the nature of fear that whatever we fear captures us. While our fears come from our experiences, our anxieties are concerned with future events. Those who successfully stay in the present moment can move away from their fear and anxiety and see the reality. Money Knowledge in Family/System Constellations There’s a situation I’ve seen in many of the constellation practices. I’d like to mention Master Dt. Turgay Köyağasıoğlu here and pay my respects to him. He says, “If you strive for money like a child, your chance of acquiring it is very low. Even if you do acquire it, it won’t give you happiness. But if you are in harmony with life and the world, money will come to you as if you were a magnet.” The very same thing applies to many people who experience problems with money. In some practices, two people play a scene where one represents the client and the other represents money (who doesn’t know the role he or she plays) and the harmony and dialog between them are observed. Next, someone representing life enters the scene (who also doesn’t know the role he or she is playing), and the harmony and dialog are observed again. If the person representing the client runs directly after money without attaching importance to life, we see again and again that he or she cannot reach it. Even if the system is enforced and manipulated, we see that money becomes incredibly disturbed and cannot stay in the scene (See: I do not understand where my earnings are heading to). Because of this, the client gains no pleasure from the money obtained. So then, what does being in harmony with life and the world involve? In the most basic sense, it means living in the moment. Those who can ignore fear from the past and anxiety about the future have stepped into the moment, but there is something beyond this. Our relationships with the Mother and Father flow from the past to the present. The mother represents life, and the father represents the world. When we look at Greek mythology, we see how the world was created by a primordial mother goddess named Gaia, but the situation is somewhat different here. For this, we need to consider Sigmund Freud’s Psychosexual Approach, and then we’ll return to the Systemic Phenomenological Approach again. Life includes and “takes in” everything, so it is feminine and represented by the mother in our lives. This comes about because the female sexual organ is the vagina, and the role of the vagina is “to take in.” Life is much the same. It includes and embraces everything without differentiating between good or bad. Both the murderer and victim are parts of life, and there is abundance and poverty. Life includes and embraces everything. The world, on the other hand, is a platform where we reap the harvest of what we sow. Yet without connecting it to life (the mother), there will be no harvest to reap. To sow, we need seed. We should also open the soil of the world and place our seeds in it. The soil then “takes in” the new seeds, and a harvest is produced from the soil by germinating it with the masculine factor. Scarcity often arises when the male population decreases through war. This isn’t because the women do not work. In Anatolia, for example, women commonly work in the fields. In the energy field of this world, however, males are responsible for maintaining the energy of abundance, so as their numbers decrease, abundance also naturally decreases. To sum it up, the feminine ovum carries its own content, while the masculine sperm provides reproductive abundance by penetrating the ovum’s membrane. Let’s return to the Systemic Phenomenological Approach (Family/System Constellations). To earn money (i.e., to “take money into your life”) relates to your relationship with the Mother. However, your business life and money skills, such as making investments, takes place in the world of the Father. The reason for this is simple. After becoming pregnant, the Mother is increasingly burdened by the weight until a time arrives when she needs to give up some duties. During her pregnancy, and even after giving birth, she will determine and control the needs of the home. The Father will work and maintain the family, and he is responsible for meeting the needs determined by the Mother. Of course, we may not see this everywhere, and it may not be as valid these days, but we still see many people suffering from this disorderly state. To sum this up: The Mother cares for herself and her baby during pregnancy, while the Father cares for his wife and baby, as well as himself. He brings the money he earns home, and according to the needs, he uses it to create happiness and satisfaction. This is the investment he makes. Our relationships with the Mother and Father have substantial effects on our business lives and our relationships with money, but there is more. In some cases, we need to go back to our family histories. There’s good news, however! Family/System Constellations were created for this, so you can relax. Our Experiences Related to Money and Cognitive Hypnosis Before introducing this subject, I want to tell you a story from my practice of Family/System Constellations. We focused on the problems I experienced with my father, so the concept of money was included in this scene, as well as my attitude toward it. The result was I that could not see my father, so I could not see money either. Neither my father nor money were there… Of course, the healing aspects of the practice were then applied, and my attitude in the scene changed. I started to see my father, and then money also became visible somehow. I still could not see it completely, however, and I was unable to touch it. During a Family/System Constellations session in Istanbul recently, I talked about this matter with my beloved, old friend Özlem Müge Özel. She is an access bars facilitator and a well-versed, insightful personal/spiritual development mentor in my opinion. She talked about the importance of asking, “How was your first encounter with money?” I then started to comb my memories and thoughts. I then understood why I’d been unable to see or touch money in my previous Family/System Constellations session. With this question, a stopper had been removed, and the scene from my Family/System Constellations session came into light. During my childhood, whenever my father brought money home, he never let us see or touch it. He just took it to his room and left it there. He even got angry if we talked about money, and we never knew why! Due to this past experience, I became unable to see and touch money, and this affected my future relationship with money. Thanks to the hypnosis training I later received, it hadn’t been hard to break this hypnotic structure and develop new money skills, but this self-discovery was highly significant for me. If the reality had not come out in this scene and found a niche in my mind, I probably would have remained trapped in a cognitive hypnosis that I was unable to remember. The picture had altered and completed itself. The Last Story: There Is Someone Else’s Share in Whatever You Earn If you are not bored to death yet, it’s time for my family story. The heroes of this story are my great-grandfather and his family. During the war years, there wasn’t much food for people. Those who couldn’t get wheat had to find nourishment wherever they could. During the scarcity, my great-grandfather could reap his harvest and fill his granary with wheat every year. However, my great-grandfather was a very openhearted and generous person, so much so that others didn’t understand it. Even if there were only two handfuls of wheat in his granary, he would always give one of them to someone else and say, “There are other people’s shares in our wealth. Whatever we sell is set apart. Whatever we eat is set apart, and whatever is right is set apart. This is the sum of it.” He lived like this all his life, while others kept their wheat in earthenware pots and guarded them. One night, they heard sounds from the granary, so everybody ran over in a hurry. They thought someone was plundering it. As soon as they opened the doors, however, they saw that the earthenware pots were breaking because the wheat was multiplying by itself. They couldn’t believe their eyes. Eventually, the wheat stopped multiplying. They kept their silence and never told this story to anyone else. İt was said that if they could keep their silence about this event, their granary would completely fill with wheat again. I was surprised when I first heard this. Did it surprise you too?
