getting there, getting there

characters have actually developed themselves a little, i’m pleased. so much of that wordcount, above, was a false start, that really i’m much less far into the story than it sounds like.

I saw on the NaNo site that you’re SO CLOSE to catching up to par! I think you and I are within a hundred words of each other atm. WE’RE GONNA DO IT

i believe in us!!!!! <3 <3 <3

ugh  i made a great discovery last night, though: don’t take sudafed right before bed. you’d think, oh, it’ll make me not so snotty, so i won’t wake up at 3am drowning in the stuff, right? you’d think that. but what really happens is that sudafed is a stimulant. so instead you lie there wide-eyed from 9:30 until 1am, and then you wake up drowning in snot at 3am. So…

goodluckdetective:

This has been on my mind recently so I’m gonna come out and say it. Look, just because you have a mental illness that does not mean you get a free pass from behaviors that hurt people. It gives an explanation to the behavior sure but it doesn’t mean you can’t be held accountable.

I get it: I have anxiety and depression and ADHD. There is a lot of things that are difficult for me to do or traits I have that are unusual. When those traits don’t hurt anyone that’s fine. But when they do that doesn’t mean I can keep doing them blame free.

For example, I really hate doing the dishes because of a sensory issue that makes the smell and texture of everything just A LOT. Does this mean I can leave my dishes in the sink and expect my Dad to do them? No. What it means is I have to find an approach that works like wearing rubber gloves or getting a scrub brush for reach. I have issues with heights so I really hate using stepstools to dust, so I got a long armed swifter. Arguing politics with my relatives is terrifying for anxiety but someone has to call them out in policies that hurt others so I practice arguments ahead of time and prepare so I can do that effectively.

The illness doesn’t mean I get out of the work: it means I just have to find approaches to do it. Even if those approaches are still really hard.

feathersescapism:

Today’s “well that’s a new absurdity” is discovering someone opining that they don’t like how people use “queer” to “disguise their bisexuality.”

No I’m not pointing out where, as that’s not the point, I’m just saying this is a thing I have been forced by reality to read with my very own eyes.

You have my sympathy. That’s… really special. 

“BUT HOW WILL WE TREAT PEOPLE LIKE SHIT IF THEY WON’T WEAR TARGETS?” this person probably howled.
