idk if it's just me but holy shit it feels like the southern usa went from 'dregs of winter' to 'SUMMER.' in record FUCKING time and i am NOT coping well

honestly at this point i'm thinking i might be better off with a bag of fuckin peas lol.

#spoonie folks and others, y'all have a favourite brand of reusable coldpack that you can use for therapeutic stuff (e.g. mushing on yourself)? chattanooga colpacs keep fuckin letting me down

i'm not exactly running these things over with a steamroller or tossing them into a meatgrinder either!!! i'm laying them on my shoulder...!!!

i just want to chill my shoulder without dealing with grey smears on my chair and clothes and person 😭

uuugh i need to summon my Can I Speak To Your Manager energy because these reusable coldpacks are fucking beyond the pale

same company, same product, held up for 7 years. great, let's get some more. 2 out of the 6 or so new ones have had to be tossed out entirely. the other 3 are all patched. the heat sealing around the edge is just... not as good as it used to be, so the grey goop is constantly leaking out. i thought putting duct tape all around the edge would head off problems, but no... =_=

as a resident Legitimate Cyborg i'd like to say, on behalf of the cyberpunk future: it's pretty fucken sweet actually

i just gotta sit on a hockey puck every so often to charge the battery in my butt and i get a busted-ass nerve to shut the fuck up and not hurt

i can't believe last week lolita news is the salt queen #lolitafashion both needs, and deserves https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZO0EhkOjFs

srsly i may have bawled a little at the final point here. it's so good.

ah well, at least i can amuse myself by making my nail polish change colors when i mush it on my icepack when it dries lmao

butter mints are just EXTREMELY good texturally. like how they go from that kinda soft crunch to smooth. these kinda mints too. they're fuckin Great.

this joke is ABSOLUTELY FUCKING AWFUL and i make no apologies nor excuses for it.

also the lewd qualities of the phrase "creme de mint" will be left as an exercise to the reader

and now, here's what it looks like when @eightbitsamurai@elekk.xyz 's character goes on a mountain hiking vacation in south america

me: oh maybe my fingernails are long enough to have this temperature-sensitive color-changing nail polish work!!!

me: ......

me: ok not really,

OH and i gotta put https://youfeellikeshit.com/ like, first point, since it's back

notes to myself at this point... perhaps include

-'slow tv', youtube channels with how it's made/etc. - put candy making videos here, also some aquarium livestreams

-guided videos about grounding techniques/meditation?

-look at some apps maybe to also rec? like https://www.dbtselfhelp.com/html/instant_access_dbt.html , https://www.thinkpacifica.com/cognitive-behavioral-therapy-app/ , https://anxietycanada.com/resources/mindshift-cbt/ and so on? (do wonder if those outside canada can use the last one tho)

i should really update https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qToh9xO7qDHzFymPiQEdFPeOjnnn_RCGm6Qf31eXJ94/edit?usp=sharing soon

this is mainly a relaxation list which i started on tumblr as my like... "hey here's tricks to pull out when you feel a panic attack inc to get out of that spiral", but if folks have some stuff that would go well with this, please let me know! i'd be glad to expand with more links to #mentalhealth resources and such

i remembered the pharmacopoeia talk i gave in #ffxiv so

here it is if you want to roleplay your characters having a bad time because humoral medicine is not accurate! hooray! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YF3noFbO-ZX4D5U1unju5pS_jr9OmrUuu0AVGFpova4/edit?usp=sharing

also this is just sort of like. HI NEW GUILDMATES. I AM HARP. THIS IS MY BULLSHIT. I AM BACK ON IT ☺️ ☺️ ☺️
