Soap as serial killer!reader’s henchman and he’s just so fucking clueless. Reader yells and screams and makes him drag bodies into the trash whatever and when he talks to the guys about it he’s like “yeah she’s my girlfriend but she doesn’t know it yet she’s just a little high maintenance I have to figure out how to get her to relax for a second because any time I go into her office she threatens to kill me but sometimes I get lucky and she’ll put her hands around my neck and then yell at me more when I get a boner” 😍
Autistic meltdowns are an involuntary response to sensory or emotional overload and overwhelm. This highly dysregulated state is not behavioral, but a physical manifestation of a neurobiological reaction. They can happen at any age and take from 20 minutes to few hours before the person is able to recover. It is not a temper tantrum, as it is not a manipulation tactic in response to not getting needs met, meltdowns are a physical manifestation of a neurobiological reaction and cries of distress.
just found ur blog and im kind of obsessed. especially with machete,, i relate to him so much. i know youve said he has anemia, does he have chronic pain? because i would love to project my own onto him. he is so!!!!
Thank you! I'm glad you like him!
I think a lot of the time he's in varying levels of vaguely uncomfortable. He gets headaches and migraines, often from some extremely fixable bad habits like not resting or eating enough, and from stress and work related neck and shoulder tension. His eyes are very sensitive to bright lights and he doesn't see that well, so he ends up squinting more than he should, which leads to chronic eyestrain and more headaches.
for Ninjago people who work does anyone else imagine their favorite characters doing the job that they do bc I think it would be hilarious if Garmadon became an amusement park grounds night crew worker
and then Lloyd working at Wendy's and he can't snap at the customers for being idiotic and instead he has to say "as I've stated before—"
Just saw a "buy tumblr crabs day" post and like . I thought we agreed to stop buying stuff as part of the replacement for the blackout . Yk maybe staff is making shit updates cause we complain about it in posts which they arent very likely to see instead of like actually doing shit [like anything at ALL] about it like using the support box to tell staff that they need to start thinking [https://www.tumblr.com/tf2heritageposts/722663168237764608/alright-they-are-not-going-to-do-an-algorithm <- this explains how to] . Like we need to start doing things maybe
adhd culture is realizing that 90% of your struggles is a war between body energy and brain energy. either your body is tired and your brain wants to work, or your brain is tired and your body wants to run a marathon.
i am so deeply tired it feels like when ur a kid on the way home from a long road trip except there is no one 2 carry me to a soft warm bed its just me weakly climbing the stairs back to my empty room n laying in the pain n cold
Something I wasn't expecting after my excruciating stay in the hospital was how fast and clear my head got and how quickly my mood changed when the pain was gone. For context, since Monday, I had an issue that caused me immense pain and I mean like 9/10 pain levels. I couldn't do more than limp to the couch and lie there for hours. Even scrolling on my phone got set aside because of how distracted I was by the pain. Me, with my adhd ass, was completely rawdogging everything for 4 days - no phone, no music, no TV, no meds, nothing. Even when I was confined to a waiting room for 9 hours, 5 of which were without painkillers and 3 of which were on a hard, plastic chair, I just closed my eyes and sat there. I didn't need distractions because I was so focused on the pain
When I finally got the surgery I needed and was cleared to leave the hospital, I stood up from the bed in the same tense, slow, hunched over way I had been until I realized that the pain was gone. I could stand and walk without almost breaking into tears. Obviously I was still tender from surgery and all my muscles ached from being tense for the past 3 days (they still ache now as I'm typing this) but that intense, encompassing pain was gone. The switch within my brain was insane - I could think again. I could talk again. I could look at my phone again. Even though I was exhausted and achy, I could joke and laugh again because I had the space in my brain for it again. It happened within the blink of an eye.
I didn't realize before just how much space in your brain that pain, constant unending pain, takes up. I hadn't been through that before, that tangible feeling of shackles falling off once the thing that had been hurting me was gone. It was a different, heavy experience for me. I understand much better now how pain affects someone and why someone who is in pain may not act like themselves. I understand better now how pain can be consuming and I think it made me a much more sympathetic and empathetic person
