Caranthir at the annual Feanorian strategy meeting: You know, we could just chuck it all and turn to piracy. It would be a LOT easier.
#silmarillion#tolkien#incorrect quotes#caranthir#Source: girl genius#I really have a need for a girl genius silmarillion crossover AU thing in my life but I have no idea what it would entail#Feanor as a Heterodyne adjacent spark is self explanatory#Eol would be messing around with some kind of mind control#Elrond with his sentient city and army of feral modified soldiers loyal to the house that created them#Immortality can be explained by some sparks being very good at revivification techniques in this AU#Dwarves are also sparks but not ones that specialise in that particular vein of biology and don’t really see the appeal#with the exception of Durin’s consciousness transferal (using ethically sourced volunteers)#Elrond/Gil Galad/Celebrian would be the equivalent of the Overpowered Triumvirate

Got a little psuedo-apprenticeship with a blacksmith and I'm extremely fucking excited but I'm also sick as all fuck and it's taking longer to expunge this malady than I thought it would and now I'm worried the blacksmith thinks I'm getting wet feet about it or something
#I'm fighting this sickness as hard as I can!!!!!!!!#unfortunately my conscious mind doesn't have much say in how quickly my immune system fights it off#but I'm doing my best#I promise it's nothing more than unfortunate timing#He's been very understanding though he's been sending me videos and little tutorials for techniques#I just worry he's gonna be like ''Yeah.... this isn't working'' and shut me out before I can even get into the shop y'know?#Like I promise I really want to learn but forces beyond my control are conspiring against me#pun's text posts

me when tumblr recommends me someone defending dr3 in the tags and i read through the entire thing and get mad bc they don't understand what brainwashing really is.
#'brainwashing has been a staple of the series for a long time' they say (mostly talking about mind control)#mind control in the fictional sense not the real world sense btw#magical/technological means of instantly controlling ones thoughts#the video in dr0? yeah. brainwashing. they were watching it ON FUCKING LOOP over and over to the point of desensitizing themselves#they were already vulnerable to start with as well. it was fucking conditioning them. not controlling them directly – brainwashing them#the monokuma kids? DIRECT MIND CONTROL#THEY ARE WEARING FUCKING HELMETS ON THEIR HEADS AND HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THEMSELVES OR THEIR AUTONOMY#THAT IS NOT BRAINWASHING!! THAT IS FUCKING!! PUPPETEERING THEM#they brought up smthn in the togami book. never read that but apparently there's a book that spreads despair disease#(info gotten from unreliable source in the book)#tbh it's probably propaganda to help despair spread better#it doesn't have to be fucking literal#also despair disease... if it is anything like dr2... IS NOT BRAINWASHING#IT JUST FUCKIN TAKES OVER THEIR BODY/OVERRIDES THEIR PERSONALITY AUTOMATICALLY#IT'S A MIND ALTERING ILLNESS???#NOT!! BRAINWASHING!!#and then of course saying brainwashing in dr3 is the natural conclusion and that it doesn't retcon anything#AND I AGREE BRAINWASHING IS THE NATURAL CONCLUSION. BUT DR3 DIDN'T DO THAT#it just fucking... made them flip a switch out of nowhere?#MIKAN SAID SHE BECAME THE WAY SHE DID DUE TO HER RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS#NOT BC SHE WATCHED SILLY DESPAIR VIDEO#to use magic subliminal messaging to INSTANTLY change the way someone thinks isn't brainwashing in your typical sense. that's mind control#let's define brainwashing shall we?#a method for systematically changing attitudes or altering beliefs#originated in totalitarian countries#especially through the use of torture— drugs— or psychological-stress techniques#or perhaps this one:#any method of controlled systematic indoctrination especially one based on repetition and confusion#REPEATED TORTURE. REPEATED WATCHING OF THINGS#**REPETITION IS KEY**

THIS IS ACTUALLY VERY VERY LIVPHELIA... OLIV (pronounced oh-liv)
#THIS IS THEIR SONG (they have a lot of songs tbh)#THE SOFT VOCALS REPRESENT LIV AND THE MELODY REPRESENTS PHI. THIS IS THEM COMBINED#“i wanted to see the world in color through your eyes and through your mind” liv watching phi spray paint a mural of her on the wall of a#ruin#phi has actually been working on it for a minute and never showed liv until she was like “hey i know a spot”#liv in awe the entire time she watches. the confident strokes; the technique; the amount of control she has; ALL OF THAT#phi intrigues her so much. she wants to understand this woman and taste her soul#FUCK OMG JUST REALIZED THIS DYNAMIC OK SO: LIV IS AN INCREDIBLY OBSERVANT PERSON.. she can read people like a mfing book. she listens to#the notes in someone's voice; notices the slightest wrinkle they make on their face even if it lasts for a split second; she picks up on#patterns very quickly even if you barely know each other. she watches people like a HAWK yet nobody notices#whereas PHI IS THE TYPE OF PERSON THAT PEOPLE *WATCH*. the way she carries herself; she draws in a crowd whenever shes at the skate park;#she has so many crazy stories that make people sit and listen; her multitude of hobbies and interests and risky activities interest people.#shes like a firework - bold and eye-catching but dangerous and could end in disaster#shes the kind of person that people pay attention to. YOU SEE WHERE IM GOING W THIS??#LIV IS THE OBSERVER. PHI IS THE FOCUS#AND THEIR ROLES GO ALONG SO WELL. PHI LOVES TO SHOW OFF AND SHOW THIS SHELTERED GIRL WHATS OUT THERE#AND LIV WANTS TOO SEE IT ALL.#ofc phi loves to watch liv do her thing too but liv has much more watchful eyes.#after “take a bite” the chorus BURSTS AND ITS LIKE LIV GETTING WITH PHI AND EXPERIECING ALL OF THESE NEW THINGS

Shinobi 27: It's Summer! Chozetsu Star is Born!
#episodes that reaffirm kinji as a favorite#he can't let his anger control him and he needs to stay on the path of protecting others and fighting for the sake of love and peace#letting yourself go into battle blindly and filled with anger can bring nothing but pain to you and those around you#he's not just a youkai hunter and cannot use the powers he has as a ninja in that way or they will backfire#later they'll talk more about the development of new techniques and redefining what it means to be a ninja but keeping the foundation of it#that being the motivation to protect the people and keep peace but through the use of new techniques and technology and of course magic#also kinji gets scratched in this episode which i now have to wait like 9 or so episodes to be resolved but i don't mind#ninninger rewatch lb#super sentai lb#umbrella.thoughts#umbrella.posts

overcoming anxiety (through practicing the things that scare you) is so interesting. i used to be horrified of taking up space or alerting other people of my presence. now i'm compelled to tell strangers i like their outfits or hair or earrings- on bad days i tell maybe a quarter of them. do i still overthink it? absolutely. but i call attention to myself to tell someone else my opinion. and with the way they tend to smile and tell me "thank you!" i'm pretty sure it's taken to heart.
i used to be horrified of making phone calls as well. this is one i'm still getting over- i just Don't Like Doing It. i used to have a phone call routine that i still joke about- realize i need to call someone, cry, avoid it for a few days, suck it up, write a script, memorize the script, cry again, final script read, make the call with the script in front of me. and i would be Exhausted by the end of it. i don't cry when i need to call people anymore. i'm even needing scripts less and less- i've found out that people actually won't kill me if i talk a little too fast or stumble on my words. i doubt i'll ever like making phone calls- i especially hate robots (i'm afraid they'll mishear me and direct me wrong or a person will suddenly show up and i won't be prepared)- but i can make them now.
i get overwhelmed really easy. just a thing that happens to me. my brain is really really good at taking one task and breaking it up into thousands of little tasks and it feels like i'm drowning. if i try to make it fewer larger tasks then it starts to feel insurmountable. i was completely lost on how to deal with this (other than avoid until you get that panic attack and can do work in the post-catharsis calm until 6:00 AM) until one night when my dad (who i often meet late at night due to overlapping mental illness symptoms) asked me how to eat an elephant. i looked at him, confused, and he said "one bite at a time." that was way more effective than any other analogy i've seen has been. "light at the end of a tunnel"- i don't feel like i'm moving forward, i feel like i'm scaling a wall. "steps on a trail"- i can see my destination, but it feels impossible to move forward. but eating an elephant? that sums it up perfectly. this huge task which seems impossible at a glance. but it must be done. so you eat the elephant, a bite at a time. every time i'm overwhelmed i repeat that phrase to myself. it hasn't made any major changes yet, but it keeps me calm enough to start before i hit the panic attack, which i'll take.
i was such a perfectionist growing up- i actually thought it was a good thing (school always taught me to strive for perfection). but it made me scared to try new things- if i wasn't immediately good at them, then it clearly wasn't for me. i'm still not great at starting new hobbies, but i try a lot of new things within the hobbies i already have. i test out different ways of making art, i try new puzzle games i don't understand, etc. and the feeling of steady improvement reminds me that i don't need to be good right away. some of the most satisfying moments don't come from immediately being good- they come from achieving that skill over time. i'd like to try to learn to sew soon.
idk it's interesting. i rewire my own brain's fear response by doing the Horrifying Thing enough times for me to understand that no i will not die. and while i'm doing it it feels like nothing is changing. i get so stressed every time- it can actually take a lot out of me (turns out fight-or-flight burns a lot of energy). but i look back at then vs. now and i realize how far i've come, and i can't help but think "huh. neat"
#marzi speaks#this post has no point. i am simply thinking out loud#i think understanding the root of where the anxiety comes from helps a lot too#like. my mom feels most secure when she's in control#she doesn't like situations in which she can't control how she responds or what happens when she does#it makes her feel helpless. and that's how her GAD affects her#it's also why her fear response is 'fight'- she stress-cleans and expresses authority because those are things she can control#it's a self-soothing technique#but for me it's different. i'm most at ease when i know where i am and what's going on#this could be for plenty of reasons. i'm bad at directions and time blind so i feel lost easily#i had to learn to do a lot of things by myself growing up because my brother needed a bit of extra attention#my parents used to sometimes forget to tell me about things- i wouldn't know we were going somewhere until they asked me if i was ready#or even just that i was always surrounded by so much information and i love learning with my whole heart#when i can't know what will happen next or why something's happening in the first place i get disoriented and frightened#i don't need to have a say in what will happen. i just need to know. then i can roll with the punches#this is why MY fear responses are flight and freeze#i self-isolate because i know environments like my room and my mind#other people are unpredictable. i know what i will do#i like puzzles because they're something i can learn and figure out. once i understand it's a matter of patterns#and they take my mind off of the unknown i'm worried about#my mom will engage in a lot of conflict behavior. i engage in a lot of avoidant behavior#yes this caused arguments growing up lmao. i'd be freaking out abt smth and she'd be confused as to why i wasn't just going and fixing it#or she'd be freaking out abt smth and i'd be confused as to why she didn't try to just get all the facts#but we're better communicators abt that now teehee#it's interesting though. we have the same illness (generalized anxiety disorder) and are similar in a lot of ways#but because our root fears are different our responses to them are different#this could also be learned#my mom grew up poor and didn't get to do a lot- she worked her ass off to have financial freedom#i grew up comfortable with every question i asked entertained by two very smart parents. when a question can't be answered i feel dissonant#it's probably a bit of both in some cyclical manner. still nifty to think about

Reading apothecary diaries light novels, it's been funny realizing that despite her obvious mental hangups regarding love and sexuality, maomao does indeed have a type. For men and women.
#specifically with both she likes them tall and pale#and as much as she comments on the emperors taste in women she seems to share it given how often her mind wanders over to that subject#its easy to read maomao as aeroace but i think its pretty clear she does have desires on both those axes#they're just EXTREMELY repressed#to the point she struggles to recognize she even has them#which sounds odd given how blunt and pragmatic she is about sex and relationships#but i think she intellectualizes it all as a means of removing herself from it#if marriage is just a contract and love is just a technique its something she can control#admitting any of it might mean more to her makes her vulnerable in a way she frankly doesn't have the privilege to be

Not trying to be mean or catty, but I know it will come off as such so I’m tagging accordingly. The two ways I can realistically* see St*ncy playing out at this point are:
Jonathan dies and Steve gets a repressed bisexual Cat on a Hot Tin Roof thing going with Nancy (aka the Sad Stoncy scenario) (this might actually work eventually if they talk about their feelings).
Nancy gets with Steve because things are too complicated with Jonathan, who has his own issues to deal with and moves away from Hawkins. Only it turns out Steve has some of the very same issues re: not knowing what to do with his life. They’re not all tangled up in complicated family dynamics and ACEs, which should make things simpler, but they’re also harder to address because Steve is just fundamentally not that invested in deriving a lot of meaning from a career/education at this point in his life. He was kind of hoping that being with Nancy would change that, too, so he’s pretty frustrated himself! She tries to encourage him to go to community college or find something to do near Emerson, but he keeps putting it off. Worse case scenario, he gets it into his head that the solution to everything is to get back into his dad’s good graces and take a position at the…business factory? Which is obviously way worse to Nancy than her 20yo boyfriend goofing off for a while. They break up during the summer after her first year at Emerson after having an argument prompted by the movie St. Elmo’s Fire. It’s a relief to both of them at that point.
*Realistically to me personally. I don’t expect the show to share my vision.
#anti stancy#in the second scenario Jonathan takes a gap year and accidentally joins a weird desert cult for a while#he gets fed up with it after a few months because of all the group activities#and has to get argyle/Eden/his family to bail him out#harrowing but ultimately a good learning experience for everyone#I mean not for Eden. she told him it was a cult!#but did he listen. no.#argyle also joins the cult but he’s so unaware of its cultishness#that it wraps back around to him being impervious to their control techniques#he just left one day because he decided to take up knitting and went to the craft store a few towns over#and he visits Eden and she’s like did you leave Jonathan at the cult#and argyle’s like first of all it’s a normal commune#second of all Jonathan was too busy to go to Joann’s with me#due to The Ritual#meanwhile Will’s chilling with El back in Hawkins#and he’s like of course I’m concerned but it’s kind of nice to be the sibling who’s NOT in a weird mind control sitch for once#and El’s like I joined a gang once!!!
