Hi there. Are you autistic? Do you currently feel like shit and don't know why? Try this checklist to see if you can Fix The Problem!
When was the last time you used the bathroom? If you answered "I don't know" or "at least 3 hours ago", go now!
Do you need a drink? Go get one if you don't have one in front of you.
When was the last time you ate? If you haven't eaten yet today, consider eating A Meal, or perhaps A Snack. Something is better than nothing, eat whatever you feel able to!
Is there something in your immediate surroundings that is bothering you? If the light is too bright, turn it off. If there is an annoying sound, make the sound stop or reduce your ability to hear it (earplugs, headphones, etc.). If your clothes are bothering you, change them.
Is your space messy? Pick one area of your room and clean it up as best you can. Clean your whole room if you have the energy!
When was the last time you did An Activity? Scrolling on social media doesn't count. Try actively doing something fun! Play a game you like, read a book, make something, or go for a walk.
When was the last time you Spoke to a Person? Consider talking to a person you like if it has been a while.
How long has it been since you did something Special Interest related? Make some time to do that today. Infodump to a friend, have a nice long research session, look at related images or gifs, make art about it, whatever works best for you!
Try stimming actively! Put on some music and dance, spin in circles, go to the park and use the swings!
If you still feel like shit after trying all of these things, you might be tired or sick. Go to bed early and get some rest. Hopefully you will feel better tomorrow!
Hope that helps :)
Originally nobody was talking about it, but Rucy posted a detailed list regarding the guidelines themselves. If you want full detail as to what exactly they want, you can go here.
LEVEL 5 has posted guidelines regarding how the content of the Professor Layton games should be shared. Although in Japanese, here is a link to their official Twitter post from their Layton branch. (Here is a link to the post itself in case the twitter one is taken down.)
It means that everything Level 5 related is at risk of being purged. This includes (but is not limited to) cutscenes and (some) gameplay. Yes, although it is only for the Layton series right now, they could push this for other IPs as well.
Originally, I thought to not worry as the guidelines were written in Japanese, therefore via common sense it'd be stupid if they went after English speaking content.
However, things can always change in the future, and after seeing Level 5 taking down an English speaking video featuring Level 5 gameplay just recently, it's enough to raise an eyebrow.
Preferably, archive whatever you feel needs archiving. We don't know a lot of details nor can foretell what the company may do, especially with media in other languages / outside of Japan, but it's best to be safe rather than sorry.
And when making content related to Level 5 on platforms such as YouTube, Tiktok, Instagram, etc, be wary and always have a backup. It's hard to say to also adhere to the guidelines as it's not officially translated, but if that were to happen, you should do that as well.
I know Keefe is the obvious (and probably correct) answer, but my case for Biana is solely because I can't imagine lying in a pool of your own blood after being shredded by glass and thinking to myself "oh my gosh. this is how I die"
I dont think we as a fandom think about it that much, since Biana came back with a VENGENCE about it (showing her scars, standing tall, "I'm not gonna let them keep me down" etc). And that's amazing for her! "The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all" type shit. 10/10.
But she was, what, 14, 15? She was a little girl in an adult's war, all these kids are. She is strong and beautiful and brave but also so, so little and young and bright.
I know, I know all these kids are going through similar stuff. But I can't imagine just lying there, in pain and afraid as you hear your brother scream your name in search of you. And a little whisper in your head goes, "he's not gonna find me in time"
Ohhhhhhh my gosh this is stunning! Holy crap! It has so much detail and your people drawing skills are incredible! Ahhhhhhhh! I love it! ❤️
for those who know me, you know that I am a big fan of greek mythology, so when the epic saga by Jorege Rivera-Herrans came out I couldn't help but fall madly in love with it, his music accompanied and inspired me while I was working, and now that this long journey is about to end I couldn't help but leave a tribute to thank him for all the work he has done. he couldn't have left us a better christmas present under the tree! thanks again for everything.
ps: I already know that with the last song I will cry like a fountain!!
Sometimes fanfiction culture is just checking the author's Ao3 page to make sure they're alive.
I dont tend to read WIPs for this reason, but when I do it's never surrender
I was scanning through AO3 and wondered about fic updates (with no pressure on the writers who haven't abandoned their babies lol) and what period of time (to a reader) means the fic is likely not returning from hiatus/the grave.
listen idk what to think of rdj as doctor doom but i DO know the irondad & spider-son ao3 tag is about to get crazy
Spin the wheel. That's who's trying to kill you.
Spin the wheel again. That's who's trying to protect you.
Bread and butter and grape tomatoes is pretty great, even if it isn't very filling.
Spin this wheel twice to figure out what they are!
Desmond and the Wretched Beast (Keats) that won’t let him be self-destructive without very loudly alerting Raymond
