thinking about hospital and university underground tunnels….

there is something about them….

like literally your doctor tells you to go to another building and to take the tunnel cause its faster and you end up in a literal backroom and depending on how new the construction is you will encounter all three pictured above in order

my favorite part of this post is most people in the notes are like yeah yeah scary underground tunnels under hospitals and universities we’ve all seen them but also there is a small group of people who never heard of these in their life and are very confused rn

In my first job there was a storage room we had to go to that was in the hospital tunnels. It’s a bit of a maze down there, all vents and concrete, and the way you could tell you were going the right way was that the route sloped downwards, became increasingly narrow, and got warmer as you went.

FINALLY making an actual post about this guy! This is Azurion the dragon. He’s an ~8 foot long puppet controlled entirely by my left arm and hand, including the blinking mechanism! I also made a fake arm, and I think it really adds to the illusion that Azurion is ‘real’.

The project took roughly 6 months to complete (including planning, slacking, and lots of trial and error), and he was finished just in time for the last 2022 weekend of the Colorado Renaissance Festival. I plan on adding more to him and refining the details quite a bit, but I’m pretty pleased with the current results!

A short blonde person with a long dragon puppet draped around their shoulders and puppeted by their left arm. There is a fake arm attached to their body below their left arm. The puppet has bright blue fur, a white leathery underbelly, two straight grey horns, and bright yellow eyes.ALT

no idea if this is true, but it feels true

I heard an interview, can’t remember the psychologist, but he was explaining this idea and encouraging people to stop and take a deep breath and literally drink in small moments like you’re a dryass plant when something is ever satisfactory, positive, mildly successful, randomly joyful so your brain can code and integrate that experience because our natural lizard brain will quickly tape over it with mostly unnecessary negative survival shit. Sounds dumb and dorky but sometimes I remember this when I’m feeling good about a moment because our cave brains are still catching up with modern life without sabertooths. I like that it’s not just a pollyanna gosh just be more positive thing but more of a legit brain wiring phenomenon can be gradually hacked through small behavioral changes.

Another super important one: Take the time to tell yourself, when something you did or bought or decided works out “That was a good decision and I’m glad I made it! Go me!” 

Seriously, it can have a huge impact. suddenly you go from remembering nothing but bad decisions to adding in a series of Excellent Choices You Feel Good About, and it makes things so much better.

I repspect the grind of trying to empirically prove dean isn’t a misogynist but. My boy so misogyny they traced the origin of the word mansplain to a forum post about how he sucks. We gotta just take the L on this one

True: people over exaggerate the womanizing sleazing aspect and a sssssssolid 90? Percent of the time when he flirts it’s run of the mill and nothing outrageously offensive.

True: There Are Many Other Ways dean is misogynistic
