something has gone deeply wrong when "focusing pragmatically on issues you can influence and working to make life better for yourself and your community" is considered an unserious distraction while "endlessly exposing yourself to media about distressing situations you can't control" is considered political engagement
LMAOOOO
No dl-6 au take where Miles becomes a defense attorney and is the one, alongside Mia guiding him, who defends Phoenix in turnabout memories, which causes Phoenix to fall even more in love with Miles than he was already prior and makes him admire him and Mia alot, which guides him to study to become also a defense attorney but he just ends up being Miles’ personal assistant instead of a full defense attorney and the rest of the aa cases follows just them 2 being a mix of coworker and gays as fuck for each other.
A lil Drawtectives dunmesh thing I didn't finish 😪
More drawtectives x dunmesh fan art? It's more likely than you'd think.
the problem with autism is sometimes you want to do something (brave) but you need someone to gently walk you through each step so you know what will happen. and people don’t like doing that

My toxic trait is I think Apollo should have more crazy backstories. Make him suffer.
the way fandoms are desperate to make all aroace characters romance and sex favorable but then dont do anything remotely similar to any other identity is astounding. hmm i wonder why
PLEASE dont derail this about shipping characters of other identities please let this one post be about an aroace struggle
Phoenix presents such an enigma to me. He is incredibly messy, yet he obsessively cleans the toilet—hinting at a preoccupation with cleanliness but not really with neatness. He alternates between scathing snark and astounding empathy in his inner monologue. He has never bought lettuce but he doesn't think highly of eating fast food and instant noodles as the basis for one's diet. He's ridiculously openly sensitive and yet incredibly adept at bluffing. He stumbles his way through deductions until he has an epiphany that packs more genius reasoning in it than the braincells he lost bumbling earlier. He makes Greek mythology references in his head. He believes everyone can recognise bone china just by looking at it. He doesn't know what discombobulated means. He says 'eek!' when startled. He proudly states in court that even he could wear a maid outfit. He's even pedantic about the differences between ladders and stepladders.
I think I'm safe and furthermore I think we are pallies

If y'all are anything like me, this time of year is triggering AF. Here are some small, very easy grounding exercises that I was taught by my therapist, basically in order of how much I like them for this rage-inducing season. You make like them in a different order, depending on your rage-to-despair ratio.
Push a wall: literally go up to a wall and try to push it over. Really try. I promise you won't push it over, but give it your best shot. Try to hold it as long as you can, and then take a breather and assess whether you need to repeat. Why it works: This is a quick, physical expulsion of the fight-or-flight feeling. It's a bit like punching a wall, but without the potential to hurt yourself/look scary/damage things. You can even do it in front of people and say you're stretching, they'll never know (unless the wall actually falls down, but this will not happen, I assure you).
Shake like a dog: Animals shake to release stress, and you are also an animal. Setting aside time to just shake it out, as vigorously as you can, arms and legs, face, stick your tongue out, pretend you're shaking like a wet dog. You can dance instead, if that feels better, and you can do this to music, but basically the more unhinged you can be, the better. If you are in a place you can scream, scream too! Why it works: like the above, this is a release of pent-up stress and anxiety. Especially if your rage-to-woe ratio is high, some kind of physical exertion is often the best way to burn through the cortisol and adrenaline you're building up.
Bilateral Tapping: Cross your arms over your chest so that your fingertips are at your shoulders, and slowly tap, one hand at a time, back and forth, for about a minute. Breathe slowly. Why it works: This is weird as hell, but because this engages both sides of your brain, it helps override the activity of the amygdala, which is the part of your brain that Makes The Fear. If you're being literally triggered in a situation, i.e. you're having a trauma response, or reliving some family trauma, this is a good one.
Box Breathing: From a comfortable position (can really be seated, laying down or standing), inhale slowly for a count of 4, hold for a count of 4, exhale for a count of 4, hold for a count of 4, then repeat. You can do it for shorter counts or longer counts, but if you vary the counts make sure the exhale is longer than the inhale. You can close your eyes or leave them open. Why it works: This exercise helps you move from a sympathetic (activated) nervous system response to a parasympathetic (balanced) response. I do this one every day, and it's a good gateway to meditation. Especially helpful in anxious or tense situations, but I find if I'm very triggered I need one of the other ones first, or it can make anxiety worse. Breathwork is amazing but not usually as a first exercise if you're very activated, or have been activated a long time.
Ice: Lots of ways to do this one – hands in cold water for 30 seconds, ice pack on the back of your neck, dip your entire face into a bowl of ice water (this one's the most effective). Why it works: I kinda think this is hilarious, but this activates your mammalian dive reflex. It immediately slows your heart-rate, so if you are feeling your blood pressure and heart rate rising, this one is very good. The only reason this one's at the bottom of my list is because I hate being cold.
I wish you all a very get-through-the-holidays-without-hurting-yourself. Take time alone if you need it.
unfortunately if you heavily curate and dampen parts of your being to avoid being cringe on your quest to be lovable you will never be loved for who you are and something will always feel missing. i know i know it's terrible. rips my own face off
So like, there are 9 reindeer in santa's sleigh and there's 9 mercs..
