i feel better than i have in years (maybe… ever) and as much as id like to pick the onesimpletrick that did it i know its the combo — finalized financial plumbing, the julia drawfee big project planning process, the tiny experiments “pacts” model, konmari’s visualizing the destination, having an externalized & tangible deadline to work towards (the lease being up) and the polycule model — that got the gears connected so i can finally get some traction and get the metaphorical windows down and feel the metaphorical wind in my hair
ummm hmmmm kinda? heres an iceberg tip. keep in mind i got a weird brain
Ratsources personal development list:
First of all, you’re not in trouble and it’s not your fault:
Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents (book)
Codependent No More (book)
The School of Life youtube channel, most of their books
Who Cooked the Last Supper (book)
Even if it was, it’s okay because people grow and change and everyone is going thru something
Nonviolent Communication
Projection (concept)
The Paradox of Getting Better (comic)
I didn’t do the thing today (book about productivity guilt)
Self-Compassion (book)
The Wisdom of No Escape (book)
Talking to Strangers (gladwell book it kinda suxx)
U got a disability girl
Circle of control (concept)
Spoon theory (concept)
Self-care (concept)
What is happening in my brain
Neurotribes (kinda suxx)
Laziness does not exist - Devon Price
How to ADHD youtube channel
Pathological Demand Avoidance (concept)
Unmasking Autism - Devon Price
Don’t Think of An Elephant (book)
Thinking Fast & Slow (kinda sucked)
You need Emotional Regulation
(The fuck is an emotion?)
Steven Universe
Brene Brown Atlas of the Heart (or anything she writes)
(what is processing even)
The Artists Way
Somatics in general
journaling in general (it works bc you collaborate between two brain centers narrative and motor - telling a story while writing it down)
You are Not Your Brain (book)
There was a shadow (children’s picture book)
(you are not a floating head, your body is also your mind)
Body keeps the score (suxx actually but it is foundational so)
Tai Chi (gets you in your body, shame free, feels nice, huge benefits)

PowerWash Simulator (taught me baby steps)
you need to understand when youre numbing vs relaxing (concept. i personally need active relaxing)
(you’d think I’d have more books or resources on the nervous system but I find the dog model most helpful for myself. I’ve gathered that if i think of it in terms of only a current state - ie feeling my feelings now, and a past state ie trauma - processing old repressed stuff - it all becomes nice and simple)
What are we even doing here?
Bring Me the Rhinoceros (zen koans book)
Anything/everything by Alain de Bottin, Pema Chodron, Thich Naht Hanh, Joseph Campbell, Carl Jung

How to take smart notes (zettlekassen)
Good strategy bad strategy (goal setting)

I’ve seen so many concept designs for Adrian but the general consensus seems to be that they’re teal, taller than Rocky, and very pretty in rock standards. Like we have no clue who they are, what they identify as, but pretty much everyone agrees that Rocky the autism pulled this gorgeous Eridian and I think that’s wonderful. I completely imagine him yapping about science and engineering and Adrian going “uh huh yep yeah sure” not knowing a thing he says but being so enamored anyway. It’s beautiful.
Edit: Very much aware now that Adrian was responsible for the biodome, which is 10x cooler than what I originally thought, but my opinion still stands that Rocky yaps a bunch about his field and Adrian is more nonchalant about their’s just because I love the Roger and Jessica Rabbit dynamic.
got a crick in my neck and a frog in my throat and a chip on my shoulder and a stick up my ass and now you're gonna stand there puttin words in my mouth? haven't I been through enough?

I couldn't miss an opportunity to make epic geological phenotypes for eridians:D them rocks will look fly as hell on my watch!
Nerding out under the cut:)
For those interested, the igneous phenotype is inspired by granitic pegmatites, with hexagonal beryl crystals growing from it (of the aquamarine variety)
The sedimentary fella is a BIF, or a banded iron formation - a type of chemical sedimentary rock recording the years following the Great Oxygenation Event, with alternating bands of red jasper and magnetite/iron oxides:)
And the metamorphic eridian is inspired by an amphibolite, containing garnet gem porphyroblasts:)
The Earth demanded Grace be brave for it, but Grace got to choose to be brave for Rocky.
Teeny tiny break in between IWTV stuff to giggle uncontrollably over Project Hail Mary, i watched it last night and am still not over how beautiful it was.

Finally done this after a couple days! I love drawing movie stills.
When I initially started this I hadn't seen any art of Grace as the sun with planets orbiting him, now I see so many!!! It's an obvious idea so I was wondering why no one had done it. People had LOL. Anyway, here he is <3
I tried very hard to make the constellations Canis Major and Vulpecula (Greater Hound and Little Fox) (accidentally said that the constellation was Sirius whoops.)
So many anti-science (and particularly, anti-vax) people apply their diet and orthorexia culture to medicine. That is one of the things you will hear over and over again. “I actually read the ingredients of this vaccine and it has [SUBSTANCE] in it so I will not let my child get vaccinated.” which is exactly how these people grocery shop, I’m sure. No understanding of chemistry, no research into why that ingredient is in there, what it is doing to help make the vaccine safe and effective and what amount would make it toxic to the human body. They will be like “Oh my god, there is hydrochloric acid in there! I’m not going to research into why it is in there (in small amounts as a PH stabilizer), it’s hydrochloric acid (the human body creates it naturally) and they’re trying to inject this into our children!”

Kinda loving how Adrian turned into the fandoms collective oc at this point. Like we dont know anything about them except that Rocky thinks they're beautiful and they built the biodome. but yes they're massive and green and supper smart. Obviously.
