Hey y'all! Idk if I've actually been posting less, or if I've just been feeling like I've been posting less, but this anemia has really been kicking my butt. I am still sewing, and I have not forgotten the request to make a blorbo crochet pattern, I've just been kinda moving slow
This isn't really a request for advice on dealing with anemia (I'm taking iron supplements and adding red meat and, as my mom would say, "dark green leafies" to my food as much as possible), just a like heads up that my posting might be a little slow until the iron supplements actually start kicking in
That said, if you have any experience and/or advice for whatever treatments are given when iron supplements are not enough, I know nothing about that and it's looking increasingly possible that the supplements aren't going to be enough?

guys I am trying to be a plant person again.....people keep giving me plants as gifts and I can't let them die so I guess the alternative is not letting them die
That being said, howwwww are you supposed to know how much water to give them!!!! Just check when the soil is dried out? WHY IS THIS HARD

One minute you're fine and all "my childhood didn't fuck me up that badly and the bullying doesn't affect me anymore"
And the next it's "I want to show emotion and let them know I care but am terrified they don't feel the same and I'll just end up being the butt of the joke again"

fucking hate it when the stuff everybody says "actually works" does actually work.
hate exercising and realizing i've let go of a lot of anxiety and anger because i've overturned my fight-or-flight response.
hate eating right and eating enough and eating 3 times a day and realizing i'm less anxious and i have more energy
hate journaling in my stupid notebook with my stupid bic ballpoint and realizing that i've actually started healing about something once i'm able to externalize it
hate forgiving myself hate complimenting myself more often hate treating myself with kindness hate taking a gratitude inventory hate having patience hate talking to myself gently
hate turning my little face up to the sun and taking deep breaths and looking at nature and grounding myself and realizing that i feel less burdened and more hopeful, more actually-here, that i am able to see the good sides of myself more clearly, that i am able to see not only how far i have to grow - but also how much growth i have already done & how much of my life i truly fill with light and laughter and love
horrible horrible horrible. hate it but i'm gonna do it tho

Okay but like, why do I want to date so bad but as soon as I do it I really just want to run away from the situation as fast as possible. It’s literally the worst experience every time.

So I know everyone likes Odysseus to be a short king, and I also like to think of him that way...
But have you considered: Odysseus with absolute dogshit posture? Odysseus who cocks his hip and curves his shoulders in and ducks his head, because it makes him smaller. More unassuming. Less of a threat and more of just a nice guy, someone to trust, someone who smiles up at you and laughs at your jokes and - he's stolen your armour. Fuck.
Odysseus who is used to strong winds and rocky cliffsides, needing to duck and bend his knees to be stable. Odysseus the mountain ram. Odysseus, favored of Pallas Athene, who knows the lower your center of balance when wielding a weapon the harder you are to topple. Odysseus who tilts his head down from the glare of the sun and grins a too wide grin.
Odysseus the trickster who uses his body like he uses his words: to his advantage.

something i wish i'd see more in trigun fanarts is people having vash speak their native/non-english languages completely unprompted, ive seen folks have him speak french, which he canonically knows, but i really do believe he's a polyglot. mostly because of that one time in the desert when he saw the samurai and wanted to greet him in japanese but struggled to remember how to even say hello.
my headcanon is that rem had them learn as many languages as possible but with the big fall and so many people dying, which i think is what led english to became No man's land main (or even only?) language, means that vash (and knives!) both got horribly out of practice and are various sort of rusty in every others languages.
what im saying if there's any pun or joke you've been dying to write but just doesn't work in english vash (and knives!!) are right there!
