Screaming crying because I hate every piracy guide I come across on here.

building a bond with yourself, as in

creating a gesture in lieu of giving yourself a hug

picking a small object to be your ‘mascot’ that you can keep on you as a lucky charm. holding it every time you feel particularly nervous

drawing your to-do list or other short-term goals as a board game, with rewards on some of the panels

setting an alarm for a time of your choosing throughout the day, labeling it ‘intermission’ and doing nothing for five to fifteen minutes

I’ve been trying this out and it’s been quite helpful 🤗

I haven't personally verified this as I'm not at a computer, but multiple people in multiple places are saying the same thing. This is fucking insane. First the endless war on UBlock, then the Chromium changes to shut out some blocker functionalities entirely next year, now this?

Something is deeply rotten in recent Google/YouTube policy. I can't imagine that this is legal - how is this not anticompetitive? Google needs to get mega fucked in the press and the courts sooner rather than later.

And I need to switch to Firefox as soon as I get home.

anyone can make a zine, regardless of skill level or access to materials or design programs. all you need is paper, scissors and drawing utensils (although many people enjoy collaging!) web search "8 page 1 sheet zine how to".

everyone SHOULD make a zine too, you will feel so good about it ♡ it's about putting the power of production into the hands of the people! also you don't have to sell it or anything, you can just make one for yourself or trade/give some to friends!

i really love julia grofrer's guide to analogue self publishing aka making zines on 8.5x11 paper

and jaydragon/jdragsky's thread on staple's self serve print centres (if you're area does not have a local print shop, they probably have a staples or fedex print centre)

if you can't draw, here is twitter thread for public domain art and also a mini summary of when thing enter creative commons (generally 70 years after artist death in the US and CAD)

i also have a DIY zine page on my art blog that i am dedicated to updating as i find more resources! (not accessible through tumblr mobile app, mobile friendly, just open the link in a browser)

go make some zines!!!

We can change the world

You are the whole Universe; at the roots of our souls, we are all the same. Yet our bodies and life experiences make us unique expressions of one big Universe that experiences itself. You are powerful because your soul is divine energy (but don't forget that your physical body is worthy of attention and care, because it is the embodiment of that Highest Divine Energy - the universe, god, the void, however you call it).

Although our reality is literally a prison, a hologram called spacetime, our soul does not bow to its laws. That's why it's so important to feed your soul with good things - get to know yourself. Get to know the physical Universe through your human experience, and feed your soul by meditating and connecting your inner Universe with the bigger Universe (that exists out of spacetime and out of multiverses and some call "The Void").

Feed wisdom to your soul - learn about our history, about (quantum) physics, philosophy, science. Meditate and reconnect with your soul. Realize you ARE God, just like everyone else, but you're entirely unique and your life purpose is much different than any other's. Find your life purpose, then act on it and find ways to achieve it.

You're safe and protected by the universe/divine energy. Everything you wish for is already yours. Every thought you have shapes your reality, so cut off negativity!

You are already on the right path. Keep looking out for signs that lead you to your purpose - it could be angel numbers appearing right when you're talking about something specific, people having conversations about your interests... And usually, your purpose is strictly connected to what you already love, what makes your soul sparkle, what makes you feel good. And it could be ANYthing, from music, to technology, to gardening, to leading a country.

Lastly, I'd like to say that Gen Z is the generation of innovation and change.

From 1995 to 2003, Uranus (which rules innovation, rebellion, and progress) was in Aquarius: our generation is the one that can and will change everything; we are unconventional, intellectual, and we will break the old patterns.

From 1998 to 2021, Neptune (which rules dreams, imagination, and the unconscious) was in Aquarius: our generation is inspired by analysis, intellectual pursuit, and our collective dreams are much more vivid. We are more connected to our soul in a way that creates change.

And last, from 1995 to 2008, Pluto (which rules power, intensity and obsession, and control) was in Sagittarius: our generation's psyche is positive, freespirited, creative, optimistic, forward looking, independent and confident. When our generation is in power, it will be for the greater good.

We have all the cards to change the world - so let's do so.🧡🦋

One of the most helpful things I've learned to do with ADHD is when I need to start a task, I don't think "I need to do this task" I think "I need to do (first step of task)".

I don't tell myself "I need to wash the dishes piling up in the sink." I tell myself "I need to get the scrub brush and turn on the facuet." That's easy, so I do it and bam, I've started the task.

"I need to brush my teeth" -> "I need to get my toothbrush wet and put toothpaste on it."

"I need to write this essay" -> "I need to pull up the assignment guidelines and open a word doc."

"I need to go to the store." -> "I need to put on my shoes."

Tasks are easily overwhelming when you constantly think about them in their entirety, so picking the most immediate part you need to so and only focusing/doing that helps to get you to start it with less anexity & stress.

If you live in the USA and you're pleading for donations to pay your rent, bills, or get food then dial 211! Please dial 211 before the last minute!

It's a toll free service with people who will help you find programs in your community to pay those bills, find food, and find housing! They will give you numbers to call so you can get help.

It is not 100% foolproof. Their job is to direct you to a program they believe will help your current issue, but it's still a step up from praying random strangers online will give you enough cash before a deadline! The added benefit of these community programs, which get funded by the local government most of the time, is if there are more people using them then they can get more money to help more people.

You're not taking resources from other people if you use your community services. Your taxes pay for them. Use them.

Dial 211 first to see if they can help, and if for some reason they can't, then make your donation posts!

This list includes doctors in the United States, Australia, Canada, and Europe!

Even if you're not the target demographic, please share for any of your friends who may be.

And if you or someone you know would like to be added to the list, there's a place for that!
