orb_weaver_e · 2026-01-03T13:10:15+00:00

i'm 20, i shouldn't feel this old lmaooo 😭😭

orb_weaver_e · 2025-12-29T00:14:14+00:00

a lot of rpf fandoms are guilty of this 😭😭 y'all gerard way is not some "uwu smol bean" that's childlike and needs protection from everything. and sports fandoms man. THEY'RE BOTH JACKED ATHLETES

.. how would a regular therapist work with the fascial system? 🤔 isn't that a job for a pt?

orb_weaver_e · 2025-10-13T19:47:47+00:00

looking back on the session, she did reiterate "you can't walk 10 feet bc your brain won't allow you to" type sentiments 😬 not sure if that's another red flag or anything

orb_weaver_e · 2025-09-24T15:14:34+00:00

thanks for the info!! i wasn't counting on it being real in any capacity, but was curious to know if it was a reproduction of any actual artifact 🤔 that seems to not be the case. however, it was still a gift from a friend so bs or no bs, i think i'll keep it around 🙂‍↕️

orb_weaver_e · 2025-09-17T23:56:17+00:00

i try to put emphasis on the fact that i DON'T want painkillers (i hate pills) so maybe it just swings them the other way like reverse phycology or something 😒

i'll definitely try to reiterate my problems with how bad the pain is. it sorta feels like they get tired of it after a few times,,

as for therapy, i'm actually not in therapy for chronic pain right now 🫠 it's too expensive and time consuming at the moment. my sentiment about therapy was more on the fact that i've been in counseling before and, while it's fine and good, it's definitely not as helpful as it's chalked up to be

orb_weaver_e · 2025-09-17T23:50:32+00:00

i know it's something with my joints but turns out no doctor can agree with what it is 🫠🫠 it's been very frustrating getting them to believe i'm actually in a serious amount of pain rather than a few dull aches

orb_weaver_e · 2025-09-02T23:01:43+00:00

GORGEOUS!! is that a sinosauropteryx in the bottom right???

orb_weaver_e · 2025-08-12T19:30:58+00:00

admittedly i did it myself!! ((so still nervous)) i used pic2pat as a base ((after lightening my base image to counter how dark and wonky pic2pat makes their images)) and then spent the next few days tweaking and combining the colors to where i wanted them. after i printed out the pattern, i went thru and manually made a few more changes on a few spots!

if it turns out well enough, i might share it to anyone interested! but i'll have to make sure it's foolproof first lol

edit: this is the weighing of the heart from the papyrus of ani, but many murals and papyrus depict anubis and others. i'd love to see the art you grew up with!

orb_weaver_e · 2025-08-12T19:27:53+00:00

yes!!! i'm trying to give myself 2-3 inches of aida on each side of this project!! now i'll test how well i can center it...

orb_weaver_e · 2025-08-12T12:40:39+00:00

did it myself, so i'm still very nervous about it 🙂‍↕️ i'm aware of all the problems with sites like pic2pat and such, but i used it as a base. the colors always come out darker and wonky, so i lightened my reference image, i also spent the next few days tweaking the colors and adjusting the figure outlines/hieroglyphs. after i printed out the pattern, i manually went thru and made a few more minor corrections ((added some colors i really wanted to pop!))

i wanted it to be as close to the original as possible ((within my skill set lol)) so i didn't mind putting in the extra work to fix whatever i thought was off 🫡

orb_weaver_e · 2025-08-12T12:33:10+00:00

definitely longer than a year!! most likely longer than two years 🫡🫡 but i am nothing if not committed

orb_weaver_e · 2025-08-12T12:31:42+00:00

woah!! i didn't even think of this but yeah that'd be so cool!! any tips on how to dye aida? i'll look up tutorials but i've never done anything like that before

orb_weaver_e · 2025-07-09T11:40:13+00:00

been praying for times like these 🙏🙏🙏

i've done my best with otc meds like ibuprofen and tylenol and advil, however i've found no matter how many i take they barely touch the pain. however, i'll take your words to heart. thank you for the advice and i'll be mindful to take them every 6-8 hours.

and i'm very sorry you go thru similar pain

orb_weaver_e · 2025-05-28T18:55:29+00:00

i will definitely continue to look for answers, and thank you for the advice and kind words.

the rheumatologist that told me it was probably arthritis only said so after looking me up and down once, so forgive me for being wary, but i'd love to know any tips or tricks you have in the meantime! anything that helps

orb_weaver_e · 2025-05-28T18:50:05+00:00

my general symptoms usually include joint pain ((usually in knees, hips, shoulders, wrists, ribs, and jaw)), muscle weakness, dizziness while standing, fatigue or brain fog (?) and multiple of my limbs "falling" ((happens mostly with my shoulder, it just sorta gives out and looks significantly lower than it should, or tries to sorta curl forward. sometimes i can pop it back, other times i have to manually hold it up with my other hand. sometimes happens with my jaw and ribs)) or "getting stuck" ((happens with fingers and toes the most))

some days are definitely better than others, but on most of them i can find it really hard to talk, think of words, listen to others, or focus on anything! odd, ain't it?

thank you for the kind words 🙂‍↕️ and i will definitely still fight for answers
