apiphile:

Have you ever thought “Man, I feel impossibly shitty and I don’t know why”?

Run through this checklist before you do anything else.

  1. What have I eaten in the last 24 hours? Is it enough? If not, go and eat some food, you butt.
  2. Am I hydrated? If not, put some fluids in your body, fool.
  3. Have I slept an acceptable amount in the last 24 hours and preceeding few days? If not, do your utmost to have a nap. You need a reset, bro.
  4. Have I been outside/partaken in whatever form of exercise I am capable of? You’re stagnating, homie.
  5. Have I communicated with anyone? At all? About anything? In the last 24 hours? Sup, you’re not actually a lone wolf, and even if you’re just shouting BUTTLUMPS at someone over the intertubes, it’s better than shouting it at yourself inside your own head.

So basically: eat, drink, sleep, walk, and talk. If you still feel like emotional ass after that, start looking for more involved explanations.

PLEASE AUTHENTICATE MY EXISTENCE

so as a part of my therapy (a small part, jesus fuck I’m in a lot of therapy) I’m supposed to make little reminder cards for moments when my brain decides that I’m literally the worst

some of the cards will have Useful Things To Do (hold an ice cube, go outside, listen to the B-side of Abbey Road), and some should have positive thoughts to help counteract negative ones

basically: please say nice things (about me or in general), it’s for science

Filed under this has been a post the continuing saga of sam is not right in the head and will not shut up about it this is like being back in primary school but with more homework and crying nts

I think you know this one:
the artist and his masterpiece

or ‘the one where Enjolras doesn’t actually exist, except in Grantaire’s head, and then in marble’

Something that’s been in my brain for, I don’t know, a month or more, here, have it.

I swear to god I will finish writing this fic if it kills me

Theories of Everything by Dayna Thacker

Thacker on her work:

John Muir wrote, “When we try to pick out anything by itself we find that it is bound fast by a thousand invisible cords that cannot be broken, to everything in the universe.”

This body of work takes inspiration from the “thousand invisible cords” of modern string theory, ancient Islamic sacred geometry, and the principles of ecology. These complex areas of study have several overlapping concerns: the harmony of relationships; the correlation between the very large and infinitely small; symmetry; repetition; beauty; an appreciation for the elegance of a perfectly balanced system; and the extreme interconnection of everything.

hyacinthus

when he beheld thy agony, phoebus was dumb. he sought every remedy, he had recourse to cunning arts, he anointed all the wound, anointed it with ambrosia and with nectar; but all remedies are powerless to heal the wounds of fate.

landscapearchitecture:

Tokyo’s subway system is arguably one of the most complex in the world. The map itself can be an immediate turn-off for any unfamiliarized straphangar. But exactly how do all these lines run underground, overlapping as they carry hundreds of thousands of passengers each day?
Tokyo University graduate student Takatsugu Kuriyama decided to answer that question be recreating an accurate three-dimensional model of Tokyo’s lifeline by using multi-colored tubes strung with wire. Different color liquids pulsate throughout all 18 lines, creating a staggering picture of what goes on below the streets of Tokyo every day.

it has long been a dream of mine to create a lifesize negative model of the underground and hang it high above itself, so all can marvel at the veins that carry the blood of london
but i guess this will do
