wow thanks to tvtropes i just learned mr. rogers is the reason recording TV on like a DVR or VCR or whatever isn't illegal
"In a case that made it all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1984, the TV and movie industries sued manufactures of VCRs on the grounds that recording their programming was copyright infringement. Enter Fred Rogers, who testified on behalf of home recording, saying he didn't mind if people recorded his shows and that it was a very good thing for families to be able to watch programs together whenever they wanted to, rather than being controlled by an arbitrary network. The court specifically cited his testimony in their decision. So in other words if you like not being tied down to Appointment Television, you can thank Mr. Rogers."

Yesterday, I got my mane colored for the very first time!
Well, just the tips, but that feels about right for now. Any bluish tint on the top is from lighting conditions.
I didn't expect this to boost my mood as much as it has!

synth who's got a loose neck connection so sometimes you just hear the microsoft USB disconnect noise from another room and they shout FUCK and crumple to the floor
I am Rarity and also Rarity. (CW: ponies, self-reflection)
Disclaimer: I'm not blaming my brain chemistry in the abstract for everything I feel I screw up, but of all the involved factors, it's the one that generates the most difficulty in avoiding and dealing with the screw-ups I make for all the other reasons. Even on the best days, I continue wrestle with these issues, it's just that I can get more done while I do!

I am Rarity and also Rarity. (CW: ponies, self-reflection)
In my world, Rarity is Best Pony. (Luna is Best Princess, Chrysalis is Best Queen, and Applejack is Best Background Character. Sorry, old joke!) This started with the episode "Art of the Dress", the one that hooked me as an MLP:FIM fan. Not long after, I realized that the show's run really depicts two Rarities:
• Artist Rarity appreciates beauty so much that she sees some amount of it in everything, and her greatest joy is in creating it for others, even if it costs her deeply to do so. You know, Element of Generosity and such. She's positive about others' art, even when she doesn't actually like it. She apologizes when she can't assist her friends, and she really only breaks when she hasn't lived up to her own standards.
• Fashionista Rarity is an aloof self-absorbed classist manager-calling whiner who makes pretty things mostly for her own satisfaction or to bring attention to herself, and she always complains about doing anything outside of that. She's critical and dismissive of others' work, especially when she feels it's better than her own. She's confident right up until things go wrong and then she's useless.
I try very hard to be more Artist Rarity than Fashionista Rarity, but I feel like embracing one means will always mean having to deal with the other. The big difference is this:
• The Rarity depicted in any given episode depends largely on who wrote it.
• The Rarity I'm most similar to depends largely on my dopamine and seratonin levels.

Today's monkey paw:
Babylon 5 is getting a reboot
...on the CW, known mostly for low budget teen dramas and superhero shows that turn into low budget teen dramas
How did I become so afraid to post my thoughts here?

#drawings this morning. Reptilian player characters (kobold, dragonborn) ready an ambush for a reptilian monster. Finished up this idea of halfling bandits holding up a human, and filled the rest of the page with studies of drow hairstyles.

On mental stress & trauma
One running theme from the WFR training is that actively including the patient in the processes of assessment and treatment results in better care. Discussed in class today was that patient feelings of agency and participation are directly related to better long-term psychological outcomes.
It can include really simple things like asking them to temporarily hold part of a dressing in place, or working together to fold clothes for padding an improvised splint.

Teaching consistently makes me slow down and rethink what I view of as common sense. Mutually educative.

Reviewing the calendar I see that this coming Sunday is Stanislov Petrov Day. There are many famous military figures responsible for countless deaths. Petrov is a lesser known military figure responsible for preventing countless deaths by preventing the start of a nuclear war.

Finished Werewolf Wednesday #drawings today. A werewolf in Crinos form takes on an office worker only to find they’re actually a fomor; and a Black Spiral Dancer in all five of her forms (at the time I penciled this that’s what was winning in Twitter plus Mastodon polls).
