last night was so good. for a moment it felt like there were enough of us. that our voices might be heard. that there were people in this country worth fighting along. but then of course the cabinet approved invading rafah anyway and the negotiations stopped. idk what to do anymore idk how to even feel like there's something i can do to stop this
*most "big" artists (big on tumblr) have been left out to not skew results: (an exception was made for hozier)
** these are songs that were big on the radio in 2014 as well as being released in 2014 !!
one of the biggest things I can advocate for (in academia, but also just in life) is to build credibility with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the habit of thinking of yourself as someone who does things last minute or who struggles to start tasks. people will tell you that you just need to build different habits, but I know for me at least the idea of ‘habit’ is sort of abstract and dehumanizing. Credibility is more like ‘I’ve done this before, so I know I can do it, and more importantly I trust myself to do it’. you set an assignment goal for the day and you meet it, and then you feel stronger setting one the next day. You establish a relationship with yourself that’s built on confidence and trust. That in turn starts to erode the barrier of insecurity and perfectionism and makes it easier to start and finish tasks. reframing the narrative as a process of building credibility makes it easier to celebrate each step and recognize how strong your relationship with yourself can become
(image description: a vibrant digital painting of a gnomish woman standing in a room with a dirt floor and a large glass wall. The sun is high in the sky over a forest full of homes built into large trees. In front of the gnomish woman there is a large rock with a circular decoration on the top, a small hollow full of water on the side, and a lit incense stick on the front. the woman is staring up towards the sun with a reverent look on her face. end description)
Evarin in her altar room, ready to pray to the Sun and Mountain before she leaves her home for the day. the water in the side of the altar is for offerings to the water spirits, fickle tricksters. She keeps a feather there, from her husband. Morianon has a history of trouble, mostly to do with old long-term trauma, so Evarin offers his feathers to the water spirits in an effort to keep him safe.
