Do yourselves a massive favor: practice asking for help BEFORE it's an emergency.
I am a social worker. I have worked in community mental health and in home-based healthcare. And it is much, much easier for me to help you when the situation you're in is not yet a full-blown crisis.
"I'm out of money and have been for a while and now I haven't eaten for three days." This is a crisis. A crisis where I'm likely going to have to put you in the car and take you to the nearest food bank--except food banks require appointments now, and the next opening is in four days, so you're staring down the barrel of a week with no food. That's obviously not going to work, so, let's call eight different food banks until we've found one that has an appointment the next day...except it's in the neighboring county and you can't drive. So now I'm calling your doctor to try and brow beat an emergency plan of care update out of him so I can come back the next day and drive you to the food bank. And we haven't even started on the "constantly broke" part of the problem.
"I don't think I have enough food to make it to my next paycheck. I have (xyz) in my house and that will only last until (date)." This is bad, but not a crisis. We have a few days. We make you an appointment at the food bank and contact your brother to make sure you have a ride there. Now we can spend our visit talking about what bills are causing you the most problems and make a jump on a long-term solution, like looping in a community action agency to cover your utilities and getting you an OTC card from Medicaid to cover some of your groceries every month.
"I'm ten months behind on rent, and my landlord said I have a week to get out, or the cops will throw me out. I don't have the money, and if I get evicted, I have nowhere to go." This is a crisis. Every single thing we do here is going to be some version of a Hail Mary. In Michigan, we have the state emergency relief fund for rent issues, but process time is well over one week. There are community action agencies that we can call to assist you with payment, but they are unlikely to have sufficient funds to cover nearly a year of back rent. We can contact legal aid clinics to try and prevent your landlord from evicting you, but they may look at your case and determine that too much "fault" lies with you. Most likely, I'm going to have to put you in touch with homeless shelters and the public housing office.
"I'm two months behind on rent and I don't think I'll be able to pay next month either." This is bad, but not a crisis. This is solvable. We have time to apply for SER, or put you in contact with community action agencies. We have time to review your finances and see if you qualify for a public housing wait list or other forms of ongoing rental assistance. We have time to talk about a million possible adjustments to try and ease the burden of your rent.
"I am the sole caregiver for my elderly parent who has dementia and is emotionally volatile and fully dependent on me. I have not slept through the night in weeks and I have not had an actual break for over a year. I am having screaming meltdowns multiple times a week and I am threatening self-harm unless someone comes to collect my parent and take over all caregiver duties." This is a crisis. This is a crisis where the ethical code of my profession demands that I call 911 and report the conversation to them. They will likely come to the house and interview you. If they determine your threats were serious, they will have you forcibly committed to a psych ward. Your parent will either be dumped into a random hospital or rehab center, or left in the house on their own. Upon release from your psych hold, you will be expected to resume caregiving duties as though nothing happened. Except, now, adult protective services is actively investigating you, because it was determined you may be an ongoing danger to your parent.
"I am the sole caregiver for my demented parent, and I have not had a break in a couple of weeks, and I feel angry and weepy most of the time." This is bad, but not a crisis. We can get you in touch with volunteer groups for respite, and apply for state funded programs to get more day-to-day help, and talk about long-term planning for when the dementia symptoms get worse. We can get you the phone numbers for crisis lines and enroll you in a support group.
Obviously, you can ask for help at any point. Don't use this an excuse to never ask for help. If you always wait until it's a crisis, fine, you have free will. But you are ALLOWED to ask for help BEFORE you're in a blind panic, and it is always easier to get help when you aren't screaming and sobbing because you think your life is over.

Can someone please draw Professor Chalk beating up his voice actor? Please? I'll still like it if it's a 10 second sketch /nf
I really hope they recast him and Black Gryph0n doesnt drag the whole band down
I checked their patreon and while it's absolutely presumptuous to assume this blurb I'm quoting from their latest hiatus message is related in any way to Black Gryph0n's allegations, I can hope and dream
Alios, (one of the bands founding members alongside Masel and Ergy) who made the announcement said this in a Public Patreon post December 2nd of 2025:
"2025 has been a rough year for the team and for me personally. I don’t want to get into too much detail, but some unfortunate events have happened simultaneously over just a couple of months this year, making me reevaluate pretty much everything we do with the project, dive deep into a HUGE amount of administrative work I’d never done before, and eventually sending me into a really long and nasty depressive episode."

I'm sorry to hear about the burnout, but this does sound to me like heavy internal restructuring, which could be the perfect time to recast the Chalkeaters darling mascot character
When I first learned about the outstanding evidence against Gabriel Brown I felt my bias towards Chalk coloring my perspective, but he doesn't deserve a shred of the appreciation or recognition, because he is not Chalk, he voiced Chalk and I'd be happy to have someone else take over that role, even if they don't sound identical. I'm not letting him lay claim to the character like he's tried to with Alastor.

#my family does this thing#when we've majorly unfucked a room or done chore that we were putting off#or whatever. Any sort of household Improvement.#'Come brag on me.'#I means come look I cleaned/rearranged/did dishes/put away the laundry#and the scripted response is 'oh nice it looks SO much better in here now'#like my mom did this when we were kids.#'girls comr brag on the garage I finally organized it so I can get my car in there'#and we go and 'ooh' and 'aah' and tell her how nice it looked and how she did a good job#and we could have her 'come brag on' us for like doing the dishes or cleaning our rooms#I do it to my wife now too#it's a dialogue that means#'I did a chore and it feels like an Accomplishment even if it objectively wasn't a big thing. Please acknowledge this.'#and#'Wow you sure did do a thing. It has improved our material circumstance even if only in a small way. Thank you for doing it.'#like yeah scrubbing the pans is my Job and it's a Little Task but sometimes it feels like a Big Task#and it's nice to have an Accepted Script where I can just demand 'I have functioned as an independent adult praise me with great praise' - by @thepioden
Gonna post this before I overthink it but do y'all think Lego Batman (movie) is a good introductory media for explaining the concept of pitch (homestuck romance) to an individual with no/little frame of reference for romantic rivalries?
Just got a really really shitty prize out of a gatchapon machine at one of my local grocery superstores
It was a whole ass 4 quarters for the most disappointing dinky little piece of shit unicorn cupcake pencil topper
And I had a whole elaborate power fantasy in my head on the way home about how there needs to be some kind of vigilante gang of ragtag dingusi to help prevent such injustices and strike fear into the hearts of corporations, but like lazer focused specifically in regards to what they stock in their gatchapon machines
I should be able to tag the "gatchapon gang" on social media and have them decend upon these stores like the scene in ratatouille with the rats in the pantry
I don't know how they would fix it, if they would crack it open and replace the prizes with something cooler or just take the whole machines out a la "you lost your gatchapon privileges" but I thought about it until I got home
At which point I laughed at myself because wtf am I on about
What would your OC's phone look like?
Do they have an expensive mainstream phone, maybe a cheaper off-brand or maybe the phone equivalent of a cyberdeck?
How's the hardware holding up? Has it been beat up? Is the screen usually clean or smudged?
Phone case? Picked for aesthetic or function? Has it been customized further with stickers or dangly accessories?
Personal belongings like phone, wallet, and keys are all fascinating as a lens through which to interpret a character, so if inspired feel free to include those as well
one genre of fanfiction that seems to have mostly disappeared since i became an adult is shenanigans-type fics. like not exactly crack but just "the gang goes to 7-11" type, extremely low-stakes plot stories. the beach episodes of fanfiction. i just feel like i don't see those around so much anymore. whered they go. i miss them :(

You have to let people love you. You have to let people get to know you. You have to let people help you. Being so completely selfless that you try to erase yourself off the face of the planet and never ask for anything and reject everybody's offers of support makes you very hard to love! Unfortunately. Emptying yourself out of everything that makes you, you is not actually what your loved ones want from you, generally. They want to make you happy! They will be so so sad if you don't give them the chance. It's not all selfish. I promise.
I don’t think we ought to normalize or justify bullying as a means to keep people from being annoying — a sentiment that in and of itself could make for a whole article’s worth of conversation — but I do think we should make a habit of politely but directly telling people “hey I didn’t like that”, “that wasn’t funny”, “you are mistaken”, and the like if it’s called for, and more importantly, you should be able to take a “that wasn’t funny” for instance without taking it personally, because protecting a polite harmony where no one can criticize each other, not even politely, is also really, really bad.
"Protecting a polite harmony where no one can criticize each other, not even politely, is also really, really bad" - Tumblr user cerastes
My go-tos:
- "hey you can be funnier than that"
- "those types of jokes are just low hanging fruit you know?"
- "well they have freedoms too"
- "I mean that's not my business"
- "I don't think we need to speculate on that"
- "you'd have to be them to really know for sure"
- "complete understanding isn't step one, respect is"
- "oh I'm generally -insert broad opinion- but I actually don't know enough about the situation to have an informed stance"
- "I wouldn't think anyone's stupid for changing their mind as they learn more"
- "no no, it's a reasonable assumption in context, but you're missing context"
- "that's an interesting way to say that"
- "there's probably a less loaded way to put that"
- "I think I understand what you mean, but that's not what you're communicating when you phrase it like that"
And being corrected! (Super important to have a script for this imo, keeps me from freezing up and ruminating):
- "oh that's news to me, yeah I'll keep that in mind thank you"
- "good catch, I hadn't thought of it that way"
- "I'm very sorry my phrasing landed that way, what was trying to articulate was closer to..."
- "your feedback is important to me, how would be best to move forward from this?"
- "ohhh yeah, I'm just maxing out my social blunder multiplier"
- "I'm feeling tender about it because it's important to both of us, so bear with me if I'm over-clarifying"
- "I'm still thinking about it, thank you for explaining it to me, have you moved on about it, or would you be willing to reassure me of your preferred course of action?"
- "I'm feeling vulnerable about it, but I trust you when you say it's fine"
