got my first job interview in like 10+ years tomorrow, frantically cramming and writing down questions to ask etc wish me luckkkkk

[celestialdancer]

Every time I talk about Oxford University I feel like I'm going insane.

What do you mean they get a free travel bursary every summer?

What do you mean they do two essays a week?

What do you mean MANDATORY BALLS?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN???

So uh. . . What’s the initial punishment Armand gives Daniel for not wearing the panties 👀

(I hope you never catch on to all these asks being my way of receiving writing crumbs from you 😗)

okay part 1 is obviously an initial spanking where Daniel isn't allowed to take the panties off and maybe Armand really rubs it in by making Daniel wear the ratty old boxers over his head as an added humiliation

and then I feel like he'd also make Daniel do a deep cleaning of his underwear drawer lmao, except Armand isn't there for it so Daniel has to guess which of his boxers Armand would deem passable and which are a disgrace to undergarment care, and sort them into neat piles to be reviewed upon Armand's arrival

being alive at the time i gleaned some general elements abt encanto but never actually heard we don't talk about bruno beyond awareness it existed popping off & i think i heard like the title recited off key off rhythm but in a way that indicates speak singing nonetheless lol so upon experiencing it it's like oh but it's the Verses? while the last refrain goes harder but prior to that it's comparatively underwhelming to said verses which feels appropriate like verses / pieces of a larger picture & that a "we don't talk about him" as a disappointing Lid on infinitely richer more characterful & dynamic "but: talking about him" instances. like well personally it'd be like um seven foot frame....anyway besides being able to firsthand go like oh damn Real (the kind of thing you know exists if alive at the time) it's like alright hang on lol. one thing when a core theme is yeah like "is it a refuge if 'especial' vulnerability ultimately gets pushed out rather than made safer" subset like the parties whose even observation of truths (problems) & drawing attention to them is seen as Ruining Things, like if you're painted as Making futures that aren't simply what's desired or reassuring rather than a guidance via just observing & sharing the truth. but then it's like whaddaya mean living in fear of bruno stuttering and stumbling you could always hear him sort of muttering and mumbling lmao like now that's just Association between the Truth Perceiving & Telling behavior & behavior that's just apparently distinctive of the same person. & like Not Accidentally when [what if people were magic] specifics are obviously primarily abt a metaphorical meaning & like, indeed it was made clear like oh this situation isn't Just b/c [boo we hate your prophecies] & that [an Ability that isn't directed towards what anyone Wants / is "weird" even by these magic standards] isn't Coincidentally given to someone who just so happens to already be "weird" in other ways & be set up to have a different perspective & be pushed away due to having the supposed "extra" vulnerability of unmet needs / insufficient support, same as someone who doesn't "correctly" have any kind of magic ability....like yeah banger and also like Oh Yeah Kind Of Devastating re: that metaphorical resonance allowing for like [set the metaphor aside] now hang on with this about this disabled family member lol. misinterpretation to The Ruinerrr / The Problemmm / The Maliciousss etc (i.e. the scapegoatinggg) despite their efforts likely entirely to the contrary. then despite like, efforts aside, Just Existing, always kind of muttering & mumbling like & what of it. & then like oh sorry weird pets. weird [auspicious for adaptable tenacious thriving surviving; either way simply creatures, existing] pets.

truly like As Is The Idea I'm Sure quickly becomes like hands behind back standing at the window Uh Oh Sisters musing on all the [disabled person] metaphorical & already literal elements there. blair witching it in contemplation like We've All Been There whether being so resented for the mere disruption of "existing in a group as the 'abnormal' odd one out" or like people talking shit abt anything associated w/you as soon as you've left the room, which is also made relevant like, this wasn't Only directed at this person when seemingly permanently gone, nor were they unaware / unaffected prior....pacing in the Musing parlor like things don't Have to be compared to billions but i only ever even see so many things & it's like billions sure is like "get scapegoated rword" & then said scapegoating is presented as only beneficial & we hate autists & even beyond that it's like, grabbing billions, Imagine If Things Meant To Be About Something Were About Something. quite a contrast when they are & furthermore like, deliberate thought & Care for [who gets scapegoated & why] & the truth of like, people getting pushed aside & out who have a key perspective & are primed / liable to come through for others similarly vulnerable & the supposedly Ruinous, Problems Generating disruptiveness is actually the strongest effort to make essential changes to a group. & come through with like, it'd be undermining thee point if it was "reassuring" us like oh haha people will be supportive b/c bruno will be more normal, so great that it Didn't like no, no Normality Reassurance(tm), presence of abnormalities(tm), Good, & everyone Can Deal b/c if you don't then it's pushing this person away, is exactly what happens, including even if they're still Around but are being mistreated b/c that is entirely part of that pushing away like anyone's victim blaming is ready to pounce at any time but if someone can't stand to stay / leaves b/c they can't see another option like that's not out of nowhere nor Regardless of what full support & flexibility they were getting lol. these Active Measures everyone loves so much, which are everywhere always & would include Staying & Trying To Make It Work & those efforts would be "disruptive" & resented & Bringing It On Oneself & etccc smh

that is to all say like. Woww when clearly basically the core thread was these beats of like, the crucial site of [thee scapegoated], & why that comes down on someone & how that plays out. endless ideas about how someone weird(tm) & disabled (&/or queer. but there's no Or here lol. & again like it's a Context like, to even be the one person without kids? likely not living up to "full" correct sexuality in that way alone; any oppression's logics of "inferiority" being logics of ableism, ready examples being that "inferior" race, gender, sexuality (& their experiences as people classed as inferior) all being pathologized as disordered) are seen & treated as someone Ruining Things & who cannot belong like whew. bracing. winding. which, i also recall like i was watching with headphones & during this one dialogue pause i was like "?? what's this Extra Sound i heard there" & had to go over it like twice before being hit upside the head like well it Was still the dialogue pause but it was also bruno Stuttering in a very quiet whisper for the duration of that pause before continuing like iiiiiiii x_x

[kihaku-gato]

The sooner I can be out of bed for longer than mealtime the better. It gets maddening being stuck in bed while this sick.

i think i've figured out why so many actors hate watching their own work back and it's everything to do with the mortifying ordeal of having to perceive your own voice

rot.ary di.al the aqua bpder song ever

[rahabs]

Ah yes, just the usual: kept awake with thoughts of my own worthlessness and my inability to be Normal.

[halfbaked00q]

ignore the weird cropping, I had to add some extra spacers to the second to get them to not cut off weirdly on tumb-

but okay, look at this lol. Bond is sooo disdainful of these dumb Americans and their dumb rituals, and he's BORED of this, how dare they put him in a corner!!! how dare these half rate criminals make him do things at THEIR pace!!!

but then in the next pp (second image)- he, like. forces himself to take a deep breath & like recalibrate. like. okay yes. the ball is in their court which kinda blows. but he's making good progress on this mission, he's not just spinning his wheels about

and also I want to highlight especially!! the next paragraph after all of this!! VERY imo interesting and Important! insight into Bond's state of mind here but also his character!! observe:

ough.. "he felt homesick for his real identity"? ouuggh. especially ough cuz he went undercover under his own name, lmao, but! with I suppose a different sort of persona. It's soo interesting, he ostensibly is there as himself, but not. and he really misses being himself. ouuuu

Saturn Apollo Program

"This artist's concept depicts the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP), the first international docking of the U.S.'s Apollo spacecraft and the U.S.S.R.'s Soyuz spacecraft in space. The objective of the ASTP mission was to provide the basis for a standardized international system for docking of marned spacecraft. The Soyuz spacecraft, with Cosmonauts Alexei Leonov and Valeri Kubasov aboard, was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome near Tyuratam in the Kazakh, Soviet Socialist Republic, at 8:20 a.m. (EDT) on July 15, 1975. The Apollo spacecraft, with Astronauts Thomas Stafford, Vance Brand, and Donald Slayton aboard, was launched from Launch Complex 39B, Kennedy Space Center, Florida, at 3:50 p.m. (EDT) on July 15, 1975. The Primary objectives of the ASTP were achieved. They performed spacecraft rendezvous, docking and undocking, conducted intervehicular crew transfer, and demonstrated the interaction of U.S. and U.S.S.R. control centers and spacecraft crews. The mission marked the last use of a Saturn launch vehicle. The Marshall Space Flight Center was responsible for development and sustaining engineering of the Saturn IB launch vehicle during the mission."

sidenote- looking at all the cool stuff artists and animators are making on instagram

is way more fun n motivating than seeing the exact same stuff on linkedin

probably because they’re not punctuated by job listings that stopped accepting applications 6 hours after going up

Off-label Applications of TMS | Relief Mental Health

Deep TMS has also received the European CE certification mark for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), autism, bipolar disorder, chronic pain, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s Disease, post-stroke rehabilitation, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and negative symptoms of Schizophrenia.

Here are some off-label applications of TMS:

Eating Disorders

TMS is emerging as a promising treatment for individuals with eating disorders, such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Although it’s not yet FDA-approved for this specific use, TMS has shown encouraging results in reducing symptoms by targeting brain areas involved in mood regulation and impulse control. This non-invasive therapy can help alleviate anxiety and depressive symptoms often associated with eating disorders, potentially providing a new avenue for those who have not found success with traditional treatments.

Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia

Alzheimer’s disease leads to progressive memory loss and cognitive decline. Scientists are still trying to figure out how the disease affects the brain. However, one study found that TMS could help. The study also noted that TMS could help improve cognitive function in those with Alzheimer’s. While there’s a need for more TMS research, the early findings are promising.

Migraines and Chronic Pain

Numerous studies show good evidence that TMS helps with migraines and chronic pain. In one study, people had about nine headache days in a month. After TMS therapy, they reported having fewer headaches often. The number of days they had headaches was reduced by about three days on average.

A NIH study backs this up, with findings showing that TMS reduces the frequency and severity of migraines. The evidence is somewhat limited, but what’s available shows TMS may be a safe and effective way to prevent or treat chronic migraines.

Post Stroke Rehabilitation

TMS has helped researchers improve their understanding of the mechanisms underlying the recovery of motor function after stroke. As a result, this has allowed them to test TMS and other interventions to affect motor behavior. It’s clear that it’s possible to modulate motor functions in stroke patients. However, more studies are still needed to understand the recovery process and underlying factors like patient characteristics and optimal stimulation parameters.

One notable case study involved a stroke patient who underwent TMS therapy targeting the motor cortex, the area of the brain responsible for movement. Through regular sessions of TMS, this patient experienced significant improvements in motor function. They reported better movement control, increased strength, and enhanced coordination throughout treatment.

ADHD

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects focus, self-control, and other vital skills. TMS can improve these symptoms by stimulating brain regions involved in attention and impulse control. Patients with ADHD who receive TMS often experience better concentration, longer attention spans, and improved social skills, making daily tasks easier to manage.

TMS is showing promise as a safe and effective treatment option for ADHD with encouraging results in studies. In one of these studies, researchers analyzed how Deep TMS could help with ADHD symptoms. They studied 53 participants who were split into three groups:

Deep TMS

Repetitive TMS (rTMS)

Placebo TMS

Using the Conners Adult ADHD Rating Scale (CAARS), they found that 33% of those who received Deep TMS saw a significant reduction of 30% or more in their CAARS scores. What’s promising about TMS is that it’s noninvasive. This means no surgery or implants are involved, which lowers the risk of complications.

Unlike some other treatments like electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), TMS doesn’t come with a high risk of seizure or memory loss. And it doesn’t require anesthesia, so you don’t have to worry about those side effects either.

Addiction and Substance Use

Doctors have started using TMS as a treatment for dangerous symptoms that come with addiction, especially among people suffering from depression as a withdrawal symptom. TMS helps stimulate their brain and return control over their mood.

The treatment has also been effective in fighting cravings, though the exact mechanism is unknown. In a double-masked study on 16 people who received rTMS for cocaine addiction, 11 were free of their symptoms after a month of TMS. This is compared to only three who received standard treatment.

Parkinson’s Disease

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is also being explored as a treatment option for Parkinson’s disease. This neurodegenerative disorder is characterized by motor symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with movement. While TMS is not yet FDA-approved for Parkinson’s, studies have shown that it could help improve motor function and reduce symptoms by stimulating specific brain regions involved in movement control. This offers hope for patients seeking non-invasive alternatives to traditional treatments.

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients may also find relief with TMS. This chronic illness affects the central nervous system, leading to symptoms like fatigue, muscle weakness, and cognitive impairments. Research suggests that TMS can help alleviate these symptoms by promoting neuroplasticity and improving neural communication. Though not yet FDA-approved for MS, TMS presents a promising complementary therapy to enhance the quality of life for those living with this condition.
