ok so I love yasuho as a character SO MUCH and there's SO MANY things I'd love to dig into about her character but for now I just wanna admire possibly the realest aspect about her which is the fact that she gets emotionally overwhelmed but still does what she needs to do

like she'll power through the Horrors but she'll also cry about them in the process and that's gotta be one of my favorite things about her. because same girl.

#plus i mean who wouldn't realistically get emotionally overwhelmed in the kinds of situations she's put in #jojolion #yasuho hirose

“It’s okay. Accidents happen.” We do say this a lot but I wanted to talk about it. I was thinking about this yesterday when I accidentally spilled my drink and immediately started apologizing to my partner. I felt panicked and stressed like I’d done something terrible.

I was surprised when he wasn’t upset at all. He got up and helped me clean it up and said “it’s okay. Accidents happen.”

It made me realize how I reacted was largely because of how much trouble I’d get in as a child and that despite what I’d been raised to think, the world is not over if I make a mess or spill something. It isn’t over if I drop something or knock something over.

I’m sorry you were raised with unrealistic expectations of being perfect. Because the truth is, we’re human and we aren’t perfect.

It’s okay. Accidents happen. And I hope in time, the panic you feel when they happen subsides.

#I am far more forgiving with others than I am with myself #I keep reminding myself the voice screaming at me in my head is echoes of my dad not my own voice. #accidents happen and people can be pretty nice about them. not everything is a crisis

South American cougar (Puma concolor concolor) by Gregory “Slobirdr” Smith Via Flickr: One of the most wanted species on my list while leading tours was to see a mountain lion. This was my very last scheduled Naturalist Journeys’ tour and it was to one of my favorite places - Patagonia. Trackers in the area that abuts Torres del Paine National Park have been able to track some of the fifteen pumas that roam a private ranch that abuts this park. This is Sol and her single 1yr+ old cub. Many more photos to follow of this now not-so-elusive species to follow…

For some reason I just find it easier to talk to animals. Maybe because I know they won't judge me.

(…that's a lie, my dog definitely tells me when she thinks I've spent too long on my phone by knocking it out of my hand with her paw.)

#small talk #dogs #neurodivergent #its a spectrum #Yep I do the exact same thing #and yes my dog was perfectly capable of both judging and lying to me but at least he still responded to me instead of leaving me

“our teeth and ambitions are bared” is a zeugma

and it’s a zeugma where one of the words is literal and one is metaphorical which is the BEST KIND

I love animals that are, like, the opposite of cryptids: we know for a fact they exist and have a clear idea of what they look like because we have photographs and individual specimens, but we haven’t the faintest idea where they’re coming from - they just keep showing up out of nowhere, and the locations of their actual population centres are a complete mystery.

'kids these days are weirdly scrupulous for no reason'. WRONG not for no reason. grew up on increasingly de-anonymized internet, being available to everyone all the time, data tracked, google sees all, digital panopticon, etc. less and less space to explore and form own opinions without judgment from broad public audience. lack of privacy can be deeply traumatic and cause intense paranoia, obsession with thought crimes, morality, etc. not good.

#Freedom to think is a basic right #being judged and supervised contantly is traumatic
