Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
I'm Helena (or Hela, for short), but you can call me Storm or Lightning. I love cats 😻, and I have 2 beautiful kitties named Pyhäjoki and Tuulikki 😸😺. I'm an electrical engineer ⚡ and currently work in a power electronics company as a design engineer. I'm also trying to complete a Master's degree 🎓, but it doesn't go as planned 😝. I like many different kinds of music, from metal to dark electro, from indie pop to folk. At the moment my fav band is Arkona, but it may change in like a month. I also watch anime, when I have time for this (and now I don't). My fav anime is Ergo Proxy. I also love plants 🪴, tea 🫖 and thunderstorms ⛈️.
This blog is mostly for aesthetic (a mix of cyberpunk, soft grunge, stormcore, post-apocalyptic and a few other styles with some power lines photos 🔌) + occasional personal stuff. @sunlightpeach is my "softer" side aesthetic blog, @lightning-storm-studies is my studyblr, @hopeful-engineer is my positivity blog.
I wish there was a way I could engage in menhera and jirai content without feeding into my own unhealthy thoughts/behaviours.
like I've come a really long way in terms of maintaining healthy relationships and my own emotions and shit but I'll always feel connected to cute, dark things. I want to be full of love and light but it's also just as comforting to fill myself with cute things and just,, idk, rot.
for a long time I thought I'd never make progress, that I'd always be too intense and blow up and destroy everything I'd worked so hard to attain. I still have times where I feel completely empty inside and just throw myself into the cute things I love to try and ignore the void feeling.
but it's also that love of cuteness that's helped, I think. finding joy in things, finding comfort in knowing that even if I'm damaged and born to be destructive that i can still be something beautiful. I'll never know what it means to be normal or to be healthy but I can 1000% say I'm no longer self destructive, so where does that place me?
I won't explode at the slightest touch anymore, but I'm still weak. I envy those who can express their unfiltered thoughts without being perceived or the subject of concern. I want to let out that negativity and express the dark side of myself cutely, but I don't know how to do that without it turning unhealthy. living with BPD is such such an isolating, shameful experience and as much as I seek community, I'm scared I'm somehow not 'bad' enough anymore to be deserving of it. that I'm too positive despite that being a coping mechanism of mine, much like surrounding myself with cute things.
get to know you - how do you dress irl? Is your aesthetic like your sims?
This is a gooood q. I think of my sims I probably dress like a mix of Willow and Aja??? One time my friend told me I dress like the queer coded best friend in a Disney Channel show which I took as a huge compliment lmao. Some very On Brand imo mango fits under the cut
also to every single dumbfuck motherfucker i see gloating about "hahaha you said vote blue?? well that didn't do anything" we ended up here because NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE VOTED WHEN IT COUNTED THE MOST
"dems control the presidency and the senate! this is proof they don't care!" do you NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THE SCOTUS WORKS? DO YOU NOT? UNDERSTAND????
thinking back to when my brother bought me dark chocolate and told me to always keep it handy and then drew parallels between dementors and depression and that chocolate was a cure in the movie for a reason. makes me smile. he’s not wrong. happy beautiful sunday, my loves.
