D&D has become so much more fun since it clicked for me that I’m not the character, I’m the writer in charge of the character
If you’re the character, bad rolls and bad calls reflect badly on you. You want to Win because that means you’re doing D&D right, and if things go wrong, it’s because you’re doing it wrong.
If you’re the writer, your number one job is to do things to your character that the character does not like because that gives them the chance to be interesting.
having ADHD to they/them pipeline. idk im running out of post ideas
If I Cannot See My Gender, I Simply Forget Its Existence
gender impermanence
a select very few are mad/annoyed/etc at this post so let me elaborate:
yes i know object impermanence isn’t an adhd thing. impermanence can be used in more than one context. i’m referring to the “out of sight, out of mind” thing wherein we lose things if we don’t pay attention to them. i’m sorry if it caused any confusion but like. come on guys. lastly. it’s just. a pun 😭😭😭
talking about how adhd could maybe contribute to one’s experience with gender…is not ableist? what? i’m not saying it’s the case for everyone. it’s just that neurodivergency is theorized to potentially affect how some ND people experience gender. and i believe it tbh! i’ve experienced it firsthand and so many of my friends have too!
i’m not implying adhd CAUSES your gender, i’m saying it could possibly INFLUENCE that (or your gender expression).
lastly, sorry, but i’m not going to shut up about my gender experiences because it makes you uncomfortable.
anyways i usually don’t acknowledge this kind of stuff but this made me upset so ✌️
ok that’s enough for now how are you guys
Ah, the adhd urge to over explain ourselves.
I completely understand. Just tell them “I said what I said” next time. As long as you know what you meant, thts all tht matters. And the people who are supposed to understand, they will understand. The ones that don’t are irrelevant.
you know what you’re right. I SAID WHAT I SAID!!!!
this is peak trans culture because this would have been easier with very nearly any other guitar design but she just haaad to use one shaped like the letter e. Not afraid of a challenge. Respect.
I would like to add that their name is E, literally just the letter E, like they’re in a spy movie. As if that wasn’t cool enough already she went and got a guitar shaped like her name. Fucking icon.
Yeah you’re right. It WOULD be pretty fucked up if you were a swan but you were raised by ducks and you grew up never seeing another swan or even knowing that such a thing as a swan even existed so you just thought you were a duck with something super wrong with it.
Zepotha will never be Goncharov because when it comes down to it, tumblr culture is collaborative, while tiktok culture is merely iterative, and those are not the same thing.
Op I refuse to let your tags stay in the tags cause THIS!!!!!
please listen to albums someitmes youll be amazed at what an artists songs do when theyree in an order they made. for you to listen to. etc
playlistification is the mind killer. the little death.
okay so being real here, as an independent musician, playlists are cool and serve a purpose - for making a driving mix or an exercise mix, or careful curation of music with similar themes or within similar genres. that’s the power of playlists - the personalisation aspect and also the sharing aspect.
but albums, albums my beloveds ! sometimes it’s more a collection of music made at a similar time; sometimes there’s a real cohesion and storytelling aspect. concept albums go 110% on this ! an album is an entire art piece made up of smaller art pieces.
some music is destined to get released as a single as it stands strong on its own as well as within that album. other music belongs entirely to that album. this is also where you get all the beautiful interludes and connections.
the real kicker here is a full album is expensive to produce and will make far less than if you release that same number of tracks as singles to get on playlists. this is why the EP is so popular now as it lets you do the album thing without losing a ton of money, and there’s usually 1-2 singles you can get off it.
merch is the saving grace for many artists, so if you love albums or you want to get into albums and you want to support your favourite bands, go buy a t-shirt and a CD at their next show.
buy a CD player if you don’t have one, or get an optical drive for your desktop/laptop. rip that CD and then you can put those files on whatever device you want and you still have the original physical copy <3
there’s something beautiful about putting on a CD or a vinyl to listen through. the physical act of picking it out and putting it in the player. the experience of sitting back and letting your mind get absorbed in it. go on a journey, my friends ! ^w^
The musical showdown polls can be divided into two categories:
A. 2 of the greatest musicals of all time that each contribute something so wildly different that you basically have to flip a coin
B. 1 recent musical with a score that’s obviously pulled from wicked that got popular because there was an unusually high quality bootleg of it and 1 unabashed classic of the genre. The bootleg one is winning by a large margin
its been about 10 years since she showed me this but i am STILL thinking about how my (then) 4 year old cousin drew birds
OBSESSED with this creature; she draws the body from above/below and the head from the side, with a giant eyeball that takes up the entire head and never looks in a specific direction. in a very old-fashioned sense: iconic
Yeah I would have guessed this was on some ancient pottery or something
