"why can't they just be friends" not in the homophobic way but in the "their platonic relationship in the source material is far more dynamic and complex than the sanitized personalities they gain as a result of shipping" way

“if you’re working a full time job you should be able to afford to live on your own and have access to food and transportation” gonna be real with you brother. everyone deserves this. Not just people working 40 hrs a week

people inherently deserve to have a roof over their heads and to eat and live comfortably. not tied to whatever work they do or do not do. Shocking, i know

"AO3 doesn't need a "dislike" button"

Um, actually, it already has one. Depending on your specs, it might look a little different but over all it looks kinda like this:

You can find it at the corner of your screen, which corner is dependent on your layout.

Anyway, if you dislike a fic, you can hit this Dislike Button until the fic goes away. It really is pretty amazing actually.

"I'm just a smol bean uwu" No sir, what you are is someone who is so habituated to thinking of yourself as innocent that you will continue to do so even when you're guilty.

To quote Chris Fleming

"You know that thing where the most toxic person you've ever met over-relates to woodland creatures on social media? I call it Vibe Dysphoria. She'll put up a picture of a mouse in a jean jacket with 'It's me.' That is not you. I don't know how you got under the impression that you are a mouse in a jean jacket. You are an eel with a gun.She posts a toad with a basket of mushrooms like 'Me doing my little things.' Oh madam, there is nothing little about your things. You gave me psychosexual issues I'll carry to my watery grave. You are not a toad in the forest...You are a cruel woman who just happens to be small."--Chris Fleming

When you are overwhelmed:

Find a quieter place

  • I find it helpful to go outside or on a short walk, possibly with some soft music or white noise.
  • Getting away from loud or overlapping sounds helps immensely
  • I also prefer dimmer lights or natural lighting when possible.

Hydrate

  • Water is essential for all bodily functions, including sensory and emotional regulation.
  • Have your preferred water bottle with you and sip slowly. Add flavouring or ice if desired

Eat something

  • Again, taking care of your needs is key
  • If possible, get a small snack and eat slowly. My system usually keeps oyster crackers with us. They’re bland but have a good amount of salt which is important for us, as we have POTS
  • Most of our overstimulation is caused by being hungry and not realising it

Identify irritating clothing

  • Is an article of clothing too tight? Are you too cold or too warm? Is something itching?
  • Once you’ve identified anything that’s uncomfortable, make any adjustments you can that will remedy the issue
  • These solutions don’t have to be conventional to be effective. Flipping socks inside out can prevent you from feeling the seams. Dabbing cool water on your wrist and/or ankles can help cool you down.

Stimming

  • Stimming, or self-stimulatory behaviour, can help calm you down.
  • Safely stimming can include tapping your fingers, chewing gum, rocking back and forth etc.
  • There are also stim toys and chewable necklaces for this purpose. I have recommendations if anyone needs them

Identify and Devise a Solution

  • What led you to feeling overwhelmed?
  • Write down, either physically or digitally, what caused this and start to plan a solution
  • If it is a problem with completing a task, We use an app called Goblin Tools. It’s free on the website and the app is $0.99, neither of which have ads. It has a to do list that uses AI to break down your task into steps. It also has a feature to identify tone in writing among other things.
  • Break down your plan into small, manageable pieces. You don’t need to do everything right now.

Final steps

  • Communicate your needs to others. If you need to adjust your environment or tasks to accommodate your needs, tell others clearly what you need and how they can help
  • Breathe. You’re going to be okay. You are not a failure for needing to take a break. You are not a failure for being unable to take on everything at once.

You’ve got this
