All of this.

days of the week;

monday: snoozing your alarm clock, navy, seeing the moon in the morning, vanilla ice cream, writing poetry, blurry photographs, windswept hair, iced coffee

tuesday: seeing a cat on the street, a light rain shower, untied shoelaces, indistinct music from someone else’s earphones, empty coffee shops, denim jackets, long train rides

wednesday: pastel highlighters, drinking water, group laughter, plucking daisy petals, floral scents, counting down to a birthday, peonies

thursday: old books, a downpour, telling the truth, comfortable silence, hand holding, wrapping a gift, the smell of leather, reminiscence

friday: neon lights, sweet cravings, a little bit drunk, falling in love with a stranger, remembering your dreams, cherry red, late night showers, desserts at midnight

saturday: watering plants, childhood cartoons, a bowl of cereal, meeting someone new, waking up early and laying in bed, spontaneous plans, sitting on a rooftop

sunday: strawberry smoothies, golden hour, a soft feeling of wistfulness, lazy afternoons, 4pm naps, lofi mixes, deja vu, long daydreams, lighting sparklers

while we’re on the topic of personal non-house posts, thought i’d make a quick PSA to say that if you are a girl in seattle that goes out to bars, WATCH YOUR DRINKS. put your hand over the top of it if you need to. watch the bartender make it. do not set it down. have a man order your drink for you if you feel like the bartender is sketchy. two more women i know were drugged this weekend, making that a total of 12+ in the last 4 weeks. i was drugged a month ago. since the Foundation bust (bartenders would roofie the girl of your choice if you paid him extra, they’ve all been arrested now) it seems to have seeped out into every other goddamn bar. The Neptune is the one it’s happened at most recently (5 girls in one night), a girl and i were drugged at The Nest on 10/1, and I’ve heard of it happening at Chop Suey and Cha Cha recently, but it really can and does happen at all places. be diligent. it was the scariest experience of my life. 

taken from my friend Amethyst on fb: 

symptoms of being drugged:

-Seems/feels more intoxicated than they should be considering how much they actually drank

-Difficulty speaking / incoherent -Loss of coordination / muscle control / difficulty standing -Feeling paralyzed / unable to move -Drowsiness -Hallucinations -Nausea -Confusion -Dizziness, feels “dreamy”, loses track of time -Blackout / Amnesia -Sudden increase in empathy and friendliness -Reduction in inhibitions -Increased sexual desire -Sudden spike in happiness -Agitation -Slowed breathing -Strange, erratic body movements or facial expressions

what you should do:  If you encounter a situation where you think you or someone else has been drugged, go to the hospital if possible in case it’s serious. At the very least, stay with the person / have friends stay with you to ensure safety and monitor breathing. If you are trying to help a stranger and are unable to stay with them, try to get them to help you contact someone they trust or see if their phone has ICE (in case of emergency) contacts. Sometimes staff at bars may also be willing to help. Be wary of men/people in general who are attempting to take the person home in case they are the person who drugged them. If they seem really not ok and you are unable to stay with them or get anyone to help them, call 911. There is a risk of overdose and it’s hard to know how much a person has been given.

ADHD starter kit

Hi I have ADHD and have just recently got into a relationship with someone who has been very understanding about it. She asked me about the things she would "need to know or I'd like her to know" about it. For example, I'm not forgetting where I put my keys everytime they leave my hand on purpose. It's just the ADHD. Do you think you could make me like a ADHD relationship everything you need to be aware of list? Sort of like a starter pack. I'm no good at this kind of thing.

Sure! Full disclosure: I’ve never been in a relationship. Also, this is not a complete list! 

Time blindness 

This is a real symptom of ADHD that affects our ability to accurately sense the passage of time (“It’s only been 10 minutes—how can it be 3 am?!”) Time blindness can also cause issues estimating how long something will take (“It should only take me 5 minutes to get ready!”) and judging the urgency of things that our brains perceive as far away (“I know I should study for the test, but it’s not until next week—I have plenty of time!”).

Emotional dysregulation 

Our frontal lobes do not reign in strong emotions like they should, so we tend to have strong, impulsive reactions, especially when we are upset. RSD, or rejection sensitive dysphoria, is part of this: if we perceive even mild criticism or rejection—or even fail to meet our own expectations—it can feel like the end of the world.

Under-stimulation 

Because we don’t produce enough neurotransmitters, our brains are chronically starved for stimulation. Under-stimulation is boredom, but an extreme level—and for people with ADHD, it can actually cause secondary depression.

Short term memory 

This is why people with ADHD forget what they were about to say, forget what YOU just said, or forget to pick up groceries, pay bills, or turn in their homework. This is not carelessness. It is a working memory deficit caused by neurological differences.

Attention dysregulation (not deficit)

This is one of the main problems in ADHD. We struggle to control the subject and intensity of our focus. This means that we can exhaust ourselves trying to focus for one hour in class—but may spend all day hyperfocusing on our newest project, even forgetting to eat or drink. Others may think that this means the ADHDer can focus “when they want to,” but hyperfocus is usually not voluntary and can be as hard to control as inattention.

Executive dysfunction

Executive functions are cognitive skills housed in the frontal lobe (the brain region most affected by ADHD). These include things like emotional regulation and working memory; also organization, planning and prioritizing, and task initiation.Trouble with task initiation is often perceived as laziness or procrastination. In reality, executive dysfunction can cause an ADHDer to get “stuck” before starting, even if they really want to do the task. Difficulty with task initiation is why I get “stuck” in my car after parking—and sometimes cannot seem to leave it on my own, even when the interior of the car is over 140 degrees. 

I firmly believe everyone with ADHD should do their best to own it and learn to manage it. Most ADHDers learn various coping strategies to help them deal. But it’s also important that the people in our lives have realistic expectations and know that even when we try our best, we will still have symptoms. It is not a sign that we don’t care about them or aren’t trying.

@smolbean-pma don't know if we're friends but I do know you're very talented! ❤

“When I came from a place of crippling self doubt, I moved forward from that doubt to a place where I can be proud of the things that I have done. And if I leave ANYTHING behind in this world, it is the idea that that can come from anywhere.”

My brother has returned, the world may be a kinder place then once believed.

Started watching one piece but I was watching it with my brother because i am incapable of watching shows by myself and now I fear he will be leaving me to watch by himself so basically all hope is lost
