#pure attention

[bodyalive]

At This Moment

“It is not the body that is important but the atmosphere around it. The atmosphere becomes permeated with this finer vibration, in the stillness. And another quality is there.

An axis begins to appear, of pure attention. There is a sensitivity. This atmosphere, filled with energy. The body, like an envelope.

Respect this atmosphere, this energy contained in the body. And then, even subtler energies can come into you—the Light can come into you.

All my thoughts, feelings, ideas are nothing compared to this precious treasure, this quality of energy that is not mine but what I am.

More and more, with attending to presence, allo'wing higher forces to enter, staying collected, returning, we can live in a new way.

You can serve this energy. And the energy can heal. From it can come my best action in the world, my best action for others. Help each other through living in this pure Attention.”

~ Michel de Salzmann, quoted in Fran Shaw's 'Notes on The Next Attention'

— thinking about . . .

men who swear up and down they’re not into you— or men for that matter. men who flirt with women as often as they can. men who drink a little too much during a night out and start grinding against you in the dimly lit club you’re in. men who’s legs feel like jelly and skin feels hot as you guide their hips against yours. men who turn to putty as you drag them outside. men who forget every bit of elegance when they’re pinned against the wall. men who weakly beg for you to fuck them right there in the decrepit alleyway. men who wake up the next morning barely being able to walk and can’t look you in the eye now. men who sport dark hickeys and bite marks from you as they attempt to flirt with another girl to distract from how good you made them feel the night prior.

Have these people LOST THEIR MINDS?

Every Illegal Immigrant Should Be Provided An Attorney By American Tax Payers

“So the American taxpayer should pay for the lawyers. Not only should they pay for the hospitals, not only should they pay for the schools, not only should they pay the SNAP benefits. They should also pay for the lawyers to allow them as people from outside the United States to be able to come into America” 🤔

i know ive basically said this already lol but a lot of ppl have been like "oh man i should reread homestuck with the commentary!" and i do want to warn yall it is an extremely mixed bag of genuine insightful stuff and good writing advice and then just like. terrible writing advice, and weird off-kilter bad-taste jokes. i've just been posting the stuff i think is good and interesting or particularly funny, but it's not all top tier commentary lmao

if ur doing a reread with book commentary get ready to be annoyed. and put on ur critical thinking helmet lol because you have to parse through so much of hussies bullshit. u have to ask urself CONSTANTLY "are they serious, or are they being satirical right now?" and i genuinely do not know the answer for some of the shit they say.

#i generally try to interpret everything as kindly as i can #just for my own sake if nothing else because i dont like getting mad about it #i just ignore the weird fucked up remarks and roll my eyes #and pay attention to the actual good stuff #next read i need to turn off the commentary and read it in its pure form #bc sometimes it does get distracting #homestuck

SVSSS fandom really needs to learn what “white lotus” really means because I feel like that would clear up a lot of arguments tbh.

Hint: it probably doesn’t mean what you think it means.

#svsss #luo binghe #zhuixing svsss #I’m gonna post about the trope on my meta blog #but basically a white lotus has a pure and innocent exterior and a manipulative inside #uses perceived helplessness and innocence to their advantage to get what they want from people #LBH is not being seen as pure and innocent and good! he’s seen as being that way to get SQQ’s attention and approval #vs black lotus where he doesn’t care about being subtle and nice to get what he wants #where his intentions aren't actually bad but they appear that way because of the way he goes about it #and his reputation #it’s more complex than this but basically the way you read ‘white lotus’ changes the whole perspective of a lot of things #also I do not mean to be snarky or arrogant with this post! #it is meant to have a comedic/meme-like tone

My favorite thing about Barbie (2023 dir. Greta Gerwig) is that when Gloria decided to track down the beautiful woman she saw being taken away in unmarked black vehicles and liberate her from not only her employer but also the FBI, she had NO plan. She rolled up to Mattel's front door and had not thought it through beyond "find her."

No plan, just gay thoughts

#Barbie #barbie/gloria #barbie x gloria #barbie movie #gay ass Gloria #and this is of course after she exited her vehicle to chase her on foot and then stare longingly after her #i wanna know what she told Sasha #their first real meeting gets all the attention and while i get it.... this one is pure queer yearning

Rhysand really thinks his trauma trumps everyone elses trauma

Ofc i feel bad cause rhysand was obviously abused UtM but that doesn’t excuse the fact he 1- does shit things to other people 2- can act like since he was traumatized he is morally superior.

and i know the rhysand-ites will yap about how “he knows hes not good” or “he doesnt think that at all!” but the narrative certainly thinks so. sjm jumps through HOOPS to convince you rhysand is a great and amazing person no matter what and good god it’s annoying

#acotar #a court of thorns and roses #rhysand #anti rhysand #sjm #sjm critical #most annoying male lead and ive read some bad books #rhysand strikes pure anger in my heart #part of it are the literacy blind people who just believe everything they are told in the book #which i blame poor writing and the fact people didnt pay attention in english class #the curtains could be blue for a fucking reason #im tired of books that try to spoon feed you the point of the story #they try to take away the nuance and good god chill out

I can't stop thinking about that time when Adrien picked up the trash can as soon as he heard Marinette sneeze and waited patiently until she was done.

#so caring so attentive #not to mention the way he stared at her with pure adoration after that #like??? #he acted like he was her doting boyfriend or something #this boy is so in love #miraculous ladybug #adrinette #adrien agreste #marinette dupain cheng

I think what pisses me off most about the Wednesday fandom is that so many are intentionally ignoring the fact that Tyler is MEANT to be a tragic character because he is a Hyde. We basically have it beaten over our heads that Hydes are the outcasts of outcasts, deemed too difficult to help, and therefore abandoned and left to their own devices, basically giving them no way to NOT be tortured into being someone’s slave or ultimately having something tragic or awful happen to them that forces out their Hyde and leaving them to become a monster and/or get killed.

So many people blame Tyler for every bad thing that happened in this first season when he LITERALLY had no option but to do exactly as Laurel wished. He was TOLD to go murder the people he murdered, he was TOLD to get Wednesday to trust him, he was TOLD to go after Eugene, he had no CHOICE but to obey, it’s literally in the show’s lore. And we are both told AND shown what lengths Laurel went to to literally torture this teenage boy into becoming a monster that was FORCED to obey her. Not only that, but all that “mama” talk and physical touch is gag-worthy. SHE is the true monster who wanted everyone dead, and she ruined that boy’s life to try and get what she wanted. And the show INTENTIONALLY shows AND tells you all that.

We are SHOWN how Tyler was chained, beaten, poisoned to bring the Hyde out, to become Laurel’s perfect slave. And still so many see HIM as the “true villain,” stating that if he was truly “good” he never would’ve done all he did. Meanwhile the lore has TOLD you, Hydes have no choice. But WAY too many disregard this plot point entirely simply because they see it as something to cling to for their preferred ship to happen. That’s infuriating to me, truly. Not only from a standpoint of really loving Tyler as a character, but also from a standpoint of it being apparent to ME of where the story is going, and knowing that so much of the fandom is gonna be pissed off about it because it’s Tyler-centric.

We are given so much information about “Hydes have been banned from Nevermore for 30 years,” “Faulkner was studying Hydes but he died before he could finish his research,” “nobody knows for sure if, once unlocked, Hydes are only monsters or if the person they were is still in there.” Between all this within the narrative itself and Hunter talking about how he’s excited to explore the duality of the Real Tyler versus the Hyde next season, I think it’s obvious that Wednesday and Tyler are basically going to get to the bottom of this “are Hydes all 100% bad and dangerous” problem themselves, and the result of their research will probably get Hydes accepted back into Nevermore.

Wednesday already knows how unjust the whole system is, she mentions it FREQUENTLY in the first season. Once she gets past feeling betrayed by what happened in season one, it’s likely going to weigh on her that someone she cared about deeply enough to bring her walls down for, to actually seek out to KISS, was so hurt by this system that he ended up doing all he did. And Tyler is inevitably returning, the writers have talked about how we’re going to learn more about Tyler and explore his true feelings for Wednesday. They’ll be brought back together, no doubt. And thus, the deep dive on Hydes will probably begin.

I don’t care what you ship, I don’t even care if you really LIKE Tyler as a character, but I DO care that so many have made him out to be a pure villain simply because that suits their own personal narrative better, and makes them feel like it’s more likely their preferred ship will win the “war.” Like, try and WATCH a show, actually WATCH it, and not simply cling to bits and pieces that suit the storyline you’ve made up in your head. You’re SUPPOSED to hate LAUREL, you’re supposed to, at the very least, wonder if the Real Tyler is still in there, if he can be helped, and you are SUPPOSED to feel some pity for the boy who was forced into becoming an enslaved monster.

#I’m just so exhausted by the takes I’ve been seeing #especially on Twitter #about how Tyler is pure evil #and how anybody who loves him is scum of the earth #like no? #i actually paid attention to the show #and the character development #and the narrative we were literally told #Tyler is so much more complex #and making him out to be a purely evil one-note villain drives me up a fkn wall #sorry he’s a threat to your ship I guess?? #but you’re gonna be super pissed to find out his character is critical to the overarching narrative of the show #he’s literally the male lead #I feel like that’s very obvious #weyler #wyler #tyler galpin #tyler x wednesday #wednesday x tyler #wednesday addams #wednesday netflix #Wednesday #I’ll defend Tyler Galpin til the cows come home #you’ll never catch me NOT defending him

If you've seen Foileadeux's pkradi au, (which lets be honest if u follow me u probably have ahdhdjjd) u can probably tell this concept is HEAVILY inspired by it

I don't think I've talked about it, but this is another ANOTHER branch of my early infection au where they manage to grasp control long enough to run from the palace before Radi completely takes over

They end up lost in the wastelands, Radi trying to make her way back to Hallownest, and Hollow trying to keep them both as FAR away as possible.

TW// self harm

The cracks on their face are from Hollow bashing their head against the nearest available surface in a futile attempt to get her out

need soapghost in public putting on a show, soap in ghost’s lap just worshipping his mask, kissing the teeth and licking along the cheekbones while ghost reclines back, one arm wrapped around soap’s waist as he makes direct eye contact with anyone who dares to look at them

#this is like a sister post to my one of soap respecting the mask #are they in a pub? the rec room? who knows just somewhere ghost can show soap off #can show everyone how hot he is and how untouchable he is purely through his devotion to ghost #no matter how much they crave soap they could never pull his attention away from ghost #even if he can only have the mask for the night its more than he can ask for #and hes more than happy to prove his appreciation #has anyone seen that jude law gif of the guy in his lap and he palms his dick as he kisses his neck? #very much that energy #just pure ownership with soap happily being a possession #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #soapghost #ghostsoap #simon ghost riley #ghost cod #john soap mactavish #soap cod #ghoap #we’re a team. ghost team #save post

I’ve been part of the DBH fandom for like… 5 years now and haven’t really interacted with it much (outside of Amino LMAO), but I’m still hopelessly obsessed with this absolutely god awful game. Are y’all here on tumblr friendly???

I bring with me art (of varying quality) as an offering 🥲☝️
