I am w h e e z i n g at the local response to the. Uh. Less than four inches of snow that we got over the past day. Campus delayed opening for like four hours and all classes are virtual. My advisor is like 'can we Zoom instead of meeting in person'. People are screaming about the temperatures.
....meanwhile, my mom is headed out to school in -2F, feels like -18, and my brother has been biking to work in over a foot of snow.
#I was out clearing my car and it was downright lovely outside#like I would classify it as 'still winter temps but on the warm end'#wouldn't recommend going out in sandals and a t-shirt to bring out the recycling like I did last night#but no scarf needed at least

Yesterday I've been doing some proper physical exercise for the first time since last year and I'm just imagining how proud my f/os would be of me🥹
#it was just a 20 minute beginners home workout and I can feel every muscle in my body now but I think they'd be so happy I pushed through!#I've had particularly Heinz and Maximilian on my mind I think they would be sooo happy that I'm trying to take better care of myself💖#Heinz because he's always there anyway of course but I kind of imagine Max is probably overall the fittest out of my f/os#he seems like the kind of guy who'd want to be an example for his soldiers and always hold himself to the same standards as them#he'd be so supportive and cheer me on and be proud of me every time I get myself to do something😭💖💖#I've never particularly enjoyed doing sports (aside horse riding but in the past year I didn't have time anymore for that bc of uni😭😭)#so I didn't really do anything anymore after I finished school#I started doing simple home workouts last year but in winter my mental health went a little📉 and then I had no motivation to keep going#dunno how long I'll go through with it this time but better than nothing I guess#again with the home workouts lmao bc driving to the nearest gym ain't worth the time for me and I'd need some basic fitness first anyway#I'm doing it mainly for health reasons but this time I'm also motivated to actually get a bit stronger#I don't mind looking like a stick figure and I'm overall content with my body (maybe it could help me to look a bit more masc tho?👀👀)#but I know especially for my posture and such it would be good if my muscles were just a tad bit more developed#my mum was proud of me too when I told her about it hehe :) she works in healthcare she's always a little concerned#she's just a little worried about me getting health issues when I'm older that could be avoided by taking proper care of my body now#I get where she's coming from but it's not easy but at least I'm motivated to try again now :)#selnia talks

Please pray for my family. Two days ago we lost my great uncle and yesterday we lost my Aunt’s second husband.
My great uncle passed away in public beside his wife. She’s understandably distraught. My younger aunt and her family are taking his daughter home to help.
My older Aunt’s husband was supposed to have several more weeks, if not months, and passed suddenly yesterday right before my mom came to visit. My Aunt is… she’s not taking it well. She’s lost two husbands in less than 10 years and her coping method is to run away. My mom stayed with her last night,
Please pray for my family, my Aunt and Great Aunt in particular, that they may find comfort and consolation in this time of grief and still find joy this holiday season with the family we still have.
And pray for the repose of the soul for both my Great Uncle Charlie and for Allen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
#fury's life#fury’s family#prayer request#I thought Uncle Charlie would be the last of that generation#I did not expect we’d lose him so soon#same with Allen#I had hoped he and my aunt would get at least one good winter in Florida together#but now we have two funerals in the next week or so#right before Christmas#and the wedding

fanfic rambling in the tags, nothing interesting really, just me talking to myself lol, okay to ignore or read as you please ✨
#so i've found the perfect prompt list for an olli/allu fic advent calendar sorta thing#but i'm too intimidated by my own expectations and ridiculously high standards to even start writing any of them 😭#honestly these prompts are so insanely cute and fit olli/allu PERFECTLY#like. i'm actually having trouble deciding which ones to use because i want to write them all 🥺💞#but i'm so so scared that i'll just end up writing the same (boring) story over again for 24 times 😔#i wish i could just write without thinking and trying so hard to write a literary masterpiece#when i KNOW it's alright if it's just a silly little story about my blorbos#that's perfectly enough and i know this but my brain's just not having it 😩#also if i were to write 24 independent fics i'd have to keep them short and simple but. that's not how i do fics. unfortunately (for me)#to overcome this i guess one option would be to write just one longer piece with 24 chapters#and somehow try to include the prompt of the day in each chapter 🤔#but i don't want to make this even more complicated to myself lol especially because i'm planning to write AUs for a couple of the prompts#i REALLY want to do prompts (of any kind!!) but i'm just so scared of stressing myself out to another months-long writer's block 😭#fair enough the last time that happened (last winter/spring) i was in a shitty place mentally anyway#and so far i've been happy to be writing on random bursts of inspiration. that's how it's the easiest for me. the words just...flow out#i'm so insanely jealous of anyone who can just create stuff when given any prompt 😭#y'all are super humans to me how do you do it pls spill your secrets#and anyone tempted to comfort me by saying i shouldn't stress myself over this and that i don't have to write anything i don't wanna write:#i knoooooowwww and i appreactiate the sentiment but the thing is i actually DO want to write these prompts 😭#in theory at least. because they really are cute as fuck wth 🥺#the problem is that i can't /force/ myself to write something at the snap of my fingers without a clear idea besides the prompt#and also because i know it can take me days to finish even one story let alone 24 💀#so to even START on this project is a little intimidating 🫣#i just fear i won't have the patience :(#and when i realise i won't be able to finish the project i'll become frustrated with myself#if only i knew how to write shorter one-scenes in order to not tire myself out#but often i find those kind of fics somehow...unsatisfying :(#i'm just a sucker for crafting the context/background for stories. a little flesh around the bones if you will 🤧#okay that's all now i'm gonna go stare at a wall while doing nothing useful for the rest of the weekend byeeee#if you read this far i hope you're having a nice saturday

knees weak, arms are heavy
#listen it's too late for me to be very articulate about it (and i'm only on s3 now; the rest of the show is kind of hazily blending) but#one of the things i find most interesting about the red john plot...or jane's pursuit of red john maybe#is how ...individualized? it is#obviously the characters have different opinions on it - is his mission right; is it justified; would it help him; would it condemn him#and you as a viewer can side with one opinion more than others (and the opinions change as the show goes on -it's dynamic#which is another interesting but separate train of thought)#but imo/iirc the show itself - the narrative i guess - never makes any outright statement/judgement/comes to any definitive conclusion#on the matter#idk it's just even this - obviously everything's part of the larger narrative but at the same time#his asking does illustrate at least some level of doubt that he didn't seem to have in the last two seasons#is it because of lisbon; and the team; because of kristina; because of the strain it's putting on himself#(probably not the last one; he is demonstrably cavalier when it comes to his own wellbeing)#and he just happens to have the perfect man to express those doubts to right in front of him#(and that man just happens to be noah bennet alskdfja)#had winter said no what would his reaction have been? would his doubts have gotten worse - led to him taking a step towards giving it up?#would he have doubled down? we have no way of knowing because for this man; for this character it was worth it#and that helps shore up jane's belief that it would still be worth it to him too#idk i'm not making sense but it just feels like there's a level of grey area/audience interpretation to this story#rather than a hard line being drawn (by the story itself) on whether the actions taken in it are good or bad and i appreciate that#character-focused vs a morality tale maybe but that's more of an extreme phrasing#anyway ignore me i'm -#tm

Sobbing shitting throwing up seeing pictures of beautiful snowy landscapes and knowing that climate change has fucked us around here so it's just rain and above freezing temperatures which is disrupting our ecosystem to the point the mosquitos are going to be so fucking unbearable bc it's not getting cold enough to kill them proper AGAIN this fucking year and all of the fucking trees and plants are confused and it makes me so sad they can't get a proper winters rest and djcjsjcnsjdbdjc I'm going to fucking LOSE IT
#boy i die#i remember FEET of snow several winters of my childhood#it pretty much always would be at least a week or so of solid cover#now we are lucky if we get one day of snow and it doesnt even last#or fully cover and grass#i hate it here

It might just be all the new years resolution-ing going on around me (even though I myself have set no resolutions), but I’ve been seriously thinking about getting back to an outdoor running fitness level again and genuinely one of the pros of this is the route I mapped out when I first moved here would allow me to look at ✨ 🌊The Sea 🌊✨for a quite a significant portion of the run…
#outdoor running? in the winter?#this has been a really mild winter my lower limit is around 5-10F and I don’t think we’ve gotten below 25#this is warm in comparison#i think I moved all my winter gear…I might just be missing my outer pants but I’ll be good with leggings at these temps#i miss running and think it would solve…at least three of my problems given past experience#i watched that last video and was like…I need to up my looking at the sea game#i mean I am looking at it right now from where I eat lunch at work but there can always be more sea

cold weather in s5, sweaters, byler in sweaters, having to deal with the elements on top of the supernatural monsters, the apocalypse vibe being amplified from it being cold as hell and all the trees being bare just like in the ud, everyone huddling together in the evening while talking because it's cold and they're all feeling loW, WILL BEING CONFRONTED WITH THE COLD AND THE REMINDER OF THE MF TIMES ON TOP OF WHAT'S GOING ON, THE POSSIBILITY FOR A MOMENT WHERE MIKE JUST SLINGS HIS ARM OVER WILL'S SHOULDERS LIKE HE DID IN PREVIOUS SEASONS BECAUSE IT'S COLD AND LITERALLY WHY THE FUCK NOT IT'S THE APOCALYPSE; HNNAJFAHFA
sorry can you tell i have completely normal and regulated feelings about this?
#this is incomprehensible#thought i got it out of my system with the last post but there was still some insanity left. now i'm good again i think#at least once a week i spiral when i think of the possibility of getting the fall or even colder winter vibes for s5#it would be so GOOD#apocalypse but then the apocalypse made even worse and reflected by the cold and dead surroundings#i NEEEEED#I swear i'm normal and emotionally regulated most of the time i just become possessed when i think about s1/s2 vibes in s5#byler#<- i feel like the insanity will be understood

funny as hell that u took 2.5 months to read 1984 and couldn't realize it was anti totalitarian, not anti socialist. Orwell was a staunch socialist until the end. give the book a closer read next time
you are so mad over something so small, beloved. i hope you're feeling okay. have a good day.
#look me in my anti-consumerist eyes and tell me that socialism never results in totalitarianism#is what i would say if i was unkind to mean anons <3#also i read this book LAST WINTER???? and made a COUPLE POSTS ABOUT IT??? like??? i thought it was a great book there's a reason it's a#classic#forgive me for not doing a background check on orwell#at least i corrected myself when i learned#we live in a society#people can write what they want and it literally has nothing to do with you???? thank you for getting pissed i'm sorry you can't handle me#maybe find a different literature blog??? highkey???#if you can't take one incorrect thought that was in fact not entirely incorrect#because socialism leads to communism leads to totalitarianism#but yknow just go touch grass <3#thanks for the ask!

#leaves the house and cuts grass for hours cause i got a little upset thats basically my life motto#im not even joking ill show you my hill#thats why if we move i NEED at least some area outside to be alone#we have 6acres here and i would feel trapped if i couldnt go outside#like when we were at gerlnd and basically people were on top of you moment you stepped outside#that was hard for me#but it was at the edge of woods so i could just escape to there#anyyway i just want to enjoy the last bits of nice weather before im stuck inside all winter

I need to remember to buy some bulky yarn to make myself hats or hoodies that cover as much surface as possible for this winter.... Also make myself bigger gloves that possibly leave open only the tip of two fingers........ All of this before the worst of the cold start ughhhhhh
#there's no way we'll be able to heat the house this year too and considering that last year i think that i actually almost lost toes for the#cold this year I'm going to be prepared#two hoodies and one pair of gloves are important#i would like to make myself a small blanket for just my legs but who has that kind of money#maybe i can get first the yarn for hoodie/gloves and then later on yarn for a blanket#a small version of the blanket i made last year is easy enough that even when it's so cold I can't think is doable#i feel like im getting ready for war but past winter has been the worst period of my life WHICH SAYS A LOT#btw fun fact the neighbor is russian and her brother from idk where the temperature is at -30° says the cold is worse here so#at least it's not me being too delicate

Hey friends, can y’all pray for me? I’ve been feeling very negative lately. (Mean spirited, spiteful, disillusioned and dissatisfied.) I know some of it can be chalked up to hormones and some to the looming seasonal depression, but it’s just overall not good to be this kind of person and I want to do better.
#Winter was really really rough last year#And I feel it’s starting again and I really don’t want it to#If I can nip this in the bud before it starts at least my mindset might be a little better#Which would be a blessing#But these Northern winters are taking a toll#I don’t think I can keep doing it year after year#I have to get out
