And if it's /not/ your weekend, still, i'm genuinely sorry. Hold out until you get your rest, too? I know it'll be soon.

You still matter, and you still absolutely deserve that rest too.

Hey, all.

For most, it's the weekend! Finally. At last.

You really can take some time today to focus on You. To do something to make /you/ happy.

You can rest. You can relax. You don't even have to do anything, if you want to.

Tend to your garden, and let its flowers grow tall and vibrant.

The world can go fuck off for a while, I'm watching a chemist make cool, dangerous compounds while I melt into bed.

Bitching about corporate work 

Why the fuck do I have to do 5 other teams jobs, yet I am paid peanuts? Everyone is so far up their own ass that they don't see these obvious issues. I am network, why am I telling you your DLP solution has a memory leak? Why am I finding you didn't bother looking at the bugs showing your GPO agent interfered with the network stack? Of course it's slow, do your goddamn job!

Hey. Hey you.

I hope you have an okay day today.
Get some nice food, maybe.
Something for you, just to help make you happy.
💜

Holy crap I might be getting one of the new GCVideo Plug n Play modules! <3

@salameleon Oh, and thanks for turning me into Twidere. Once I saw you using it for both Twitter and Mastodon, sold. It's really nice. Gonna buy ∞ here soon.

Anyways, home safe with the day off tomorrow to recover. Much love, y'all.

So, yea, there's my little 'kin experience this week in a nutshell. very interesting to decipher this moment by moment.

I think through all of my experiences in life, Ark has become quite powerful, and I only notice any kind of separation in moments of extreme distress, and sometimes I don't even experience the distress because we capture it and mitigate it so quickly.

It's like I've been 'kin this whole time, and only through better awareness have I actually been able to notice it.

Once I finished there, I made the decision to hop back on the road. Back in the car, safe, and then I suddenly grabbed one of my plushes, hugging it and just stopping for a while. It's like I missed the drop into a panic attack, and I only came back in when the upswing started, where I had my large Stitch in arms, Cheshire in lap, having just taken an Alpha Brain, New Mood, a Tylenol, & a half dose of a CBD serum, along with a block of chocolate. I didn't "feel" the emotion until then.

After seeing that it was just an intense supercell passing over the area, I got back on the road. Just one exit down, I spotted an insane wreck with police, fire and EMT, plus some specialty rescue dispatch that was just arriving. Did Ark know this somehow and forced me to divert? Simply in response to the weather, I was internally screaming "nope.avi" as I dropped into Huddle House for coffee and checking weather/comms.

I was in my way back from north Alabama, having worked two 12+ hour days with a 3rd in progress. Normal day at work. But, the route home was different, and at a certain point, I felt compelled to exit in a small city due to weather. But, it could have been more than that.

So, after my last experience of dealing with my blood brother turning out to have a psycopathic headmate (which I've nicknamed The Puppetmaster, more on the holy shit moment related to Ghost in the Shell another time), I realized that it's possible for a headmate to both hybridize and split without amnesia, along with someone forcing a mate to the foreground or holding a mate from the background due to the prior incident.
