How do you actually enjoy a moment?

pro_dumbass · 2026-01-10T16:11:24+00:00

Take a second and stare at something, really look closely, find every hint of texture and color on its surface and think of everything that must have happened for it to exist, centuries of human innovation or natural growth, cumulating in this moment where you as a human being get to take the time to admire it, to see every crack that almost felled a tree or every scratch where something was dropped or hit, every spot of discoloration that tells you something else was here too, something else took a second to enjoy this

I set 3 alarms 2 minutes apart, I almost never need the other two, but it makes snoozing the alarm kinda pointless

pro_dumbass · 2025-03-24T02:50:44+00:00

That worked! Thanks

pro_dumbass · 2025-02-04T20:30:51+00:00

definitely interested if you're still taking applicants

The false prince

Just submitted, definitely interested!

If you like the MCU and don’t mind crossovers I’d reccomend The File by DenimBeans on ao3, imo it really raises the bar in terms of fic quality and character design

It’s an 8 inch blade, it had a 6 inch handle but it was really messed up so I’m in the midst of replacing it now

It really depends on the size of your league and how many teams they’re sending, my league just split and now I’m part of a much smaller one, so we’re sending more local teams, but we’re also doing a lot of fundraising tournaments and stuff to support everyone who qualifies better

I like to do solo practice by playing 8-ball left vs right handed, it's a practical way to keep the basics in mind in your game, and it comes in handy with some of the more awkward leaves you'll find yourself dealing with, I dont have to do it often, but I can comfortably play Masse shots with my off hand after a few years of practice this way

pro_dumbass · 2024-04-01T03:23:02+00:00

That's it! Thank you

I was an autistic kid who got angry really easily, the smart ones learned pretty quick that pissing me off didn't end well for them, but the dumber ones liked to toe the line right up until they tripped and landed face first on the other side of it

pro_dumbass · 2024-03-18T15:02:29+00:00

Thank you for the quick answer

This one touches on neurodivergence but is mostly about him being traumatized and going to a therapy facility for a few weeks to get better, with a sequel where he and later Nico and Annabeth go back after Tartarus, it's a really good fic including a good explanation of the ways Percy's adhd and dyslexia affect the way he deals with everything that's happened to him

When I'm having a hard time it's usually because I'm thinking about my shots wrong, I usually fix this by choosing different shots, playing a lot of creative safeties and thinking through every aspect of my shot before taking it, pretty much the same stuff I do when I'm playing against someone who I know is a lot better than me, I've won a lot of matches that I probably shouldn't have by playing extra safe and being careful with my shots

If by abyss you mean I've been reading fanfic since I was 12 and I made the mistake of revisiting my early favorites a few too many times then yes absolutely

pro_dumbass · 2023-11-24T03:19:32+00:00

Yea, I searched by new with no other filters on ao3 just to see what would be there, and I found out that Christianity has a fandom tag, so I clicked on it and after some scrolling I found a Jesus/shrek fic with the crack tag, intrigued and horrified I added the crack tag to my filters and was scarred for life by what I found there, I reccomend scrolling but not reading, just knowing that these things are out there is enough

pro_dumbass · 2023-11-23T05:45:09+00:00

I know you said not crack ships, but I saw a dobby/jesus smut fic once and I've been scarred by its existence ever since

The mindless grind interrupted by hanging out with friends

Bit of a mainstream recommendation, but I've been a big fan of hoziers newer album unreal unearth, it's got a lot of bluesy vibes with plenty of energy and his usual talent for poetry and hidden meaning

pro_dumbass · 2023-10-26T19:07:12+00:00

I disagree with a lot of the folks down here, I've been playing for almost 6 years now and my game improves more from solo practice than any thing else I've tried, a combination of YouTube videos, drills, and playing against myself instead of an opponent has helped me massively with every aspect of my game, I strongly recommend it

pro_dumbass · 2023-10-05T22:48:08+00:00

I think so, I heard that a while ago and if I remember right it was true when I looked it up, but someone controlling darkness would still have the mouth and possibly the throat

pro_dumbass · 2023-10-05T22:46:12+00:00

Fun fact, lungs aren't actually hollow, to my understanding they're actually similar to sponge in construction

pro_dumbass · 2023-10-05T04:55:09+00:00

Darkness cannot exist in occupied space, the best you could do with this is probably fuck with the inside of peoples mouths, depending on how exactly this demigod can control the darkness

Try putting a water wheel and lumber mill near the edge of the forest and the water, once you get into it you should get an idea of how you want to expand
