The Yearner

I stacked three pillows, made sure my head was heavy with bills, wine, yesterday’s deadline, and I slept hard, tight as cement on my left arm. The needles came. At dawn, I dragged it like a salmon from under my body. A part of me is dead. Now I can shake my own hand, meet myself again for the first time. How my fingers feel to one another, strangers, for a tingling moment, I am another. Promise? This time will be different.

Thanksgiving (2019) by Rachel Long

In Episode 199, Rachel shares a poet recommended by a listener, Milo Rey!

Rachel: In fact, Rachel Long is actually a founder of a poetry collective called the Octavia Poetry Collective for Women of Colour. She talks a lot about the experience of being what she calls, like, both the invisible and also hyper visible.

[...] And so that poem kind of gets at that a little bit, of just this idea of like trying to exist in this space and be what somebody else wants you to be, you know? And I mean, obviously I don’t have that exact experience, but that experience of being with somebody that you feel is different than you, and trying to just keep everything unique about yourself, like, hidden.

This poem always manages to catch me off guard; it's title and opening lines seem to be guiding the reader towards a peaceful, and even tender, road. But suddenly, you finish reading it and realise that, without even noticing it, you'd been steered right to the edge of a cliff. It's such a quiet, heartbreaking poem.

If you’d like to hear more about the author's experience, you can do so here: In Relationship with the Orbeez, from 23:38 - 35:00

The teen titans (+terra) redesigns I made for fun some time ago

The designs are a mix of different comic or animated versions and whatever I thought would look cool They're younger than in the NTT comics, more similar age range to the 2003 cartoon (aka actual teens): Gar/Tara-15, Raven/Dick/Donna-16, Kori/Wally-17, Vic-18

This is Literally Damirae

Legit the world is ending and they've both suffered too much for any teenager to ever have to go through but hey, if this timeline is going to be erased, might as well kiss the cute girl/guy you've been crushing on for two years and just so happen to be sitting next to.

// even if this is something that cannot be allowed, the flames jump higher still //

(my friends had a Good Omens S2 bingo where the winner chose their prize. @bargainbinsquid got the highest score and asked that the rest of us make them “good omens yuri.” this is my tribute.)

#good omens #vocaloid magnet #vocaloid #ineffable husbands #all good omens. is Yuri. to me. #I spent way too long on this trying to get that weird over-dodged 2010 internet anime art style #I love rachel tho so all time spent was time well spent lmaooo #bingo rules were we all made our own bingo cards and the person who got bingo first or barring that had the most boxes checked won #boxes were all s2 predictions of various levels of seriousness. ranged from /god is on earth/ to /A and C kiss with tongue/ lmao

Memory Lane

Part 2 of 2

[Prev]

---

The second part! There's a panel missing here where I was going to show Rachel playing the same piece she played at the wedding for them to dance to in the background, but I wasn't sure what kind of device she'd have?

I'm not sure if smartphones are a thing or if she'd use something like a record player, so I just decided to omit it altogether. Just pretend they have music playing in the background I promise they're not dancing in silence :')

#dynart #castle of nations #law of talos #karl #rachel #unknownpsn #unknown person #fun fact 2! #I don't know how to dance! especially not with others! #but I've tried once and when I did #I was startled by how close you actually have to be to dance with them #it felt so intimate #like you're just one small step away from hugging the person :0 #wild #anyway #enjoy seeing the traffic cone having a moment of happiness #bc we love seeing the blorbos happy :] #and cripplingly sad but we don't have to go there today #long post

Normalize headcanoning super peppy and sweet characters as autistic instead of just always giving them adhd.That's not to say don't headcanon them as adhd at all but stuff like that is why it took me so long to realize i'm autistic despite my very obvious symptoms,which includes how hyperactive i am and how kind i try to be.Autism is a spectrum-It dosen't start and end with 'is snarky/moody and socially awkward' and by acting like there's no way characters who don't fall under that can be autistic,you're perpetuating the stereotype that you can only be autistic in one way and preventing undiagnosed people in fandoms from realizing who they are.I'm not saying this to be accusatory,i'm just sharing my experiences and trying to be helpful to both other autistic people and our allies.Normalize autistic people being different
