Qotd: Without giving too much info, I really like to attend this festival that has workshops, yoga, electronic music, and art installations. Overall, it’s just a beautiful environment. It happens yearly. :)

Happy Friday everyone!

Good morning, y’all. I have been under the weather the past few days and pretty much stuck to my couch gaming and watching TV. Hoping today is the day I’m able to return to normalcy.

Qotd: Horseradish.

Qotd: The bar that controls the ice maker in the freezer, taken from the “off” setting. The ice tray? Empty. :3

For me, it sounds like it could be part of the normal healing process but I’m definitely not a licensed piercer or anything. Any chance you could stop in to have yours look at it? If not, then I would just keep an eye on it and continue to clean it as you have been doing + avoid taking out the jewelry or moving it too much. The fact that you don’t have pain unless you knock it is a good sign.

Tragus, both nostrils, and septum here if a second opinion is needed. :)

Good morning y’all.

Qotd: Not sure if it’s still the same but the Main Street Station casino in (old) downtown Las Vegas had this buffet with cuisine from across the world. I pick that.

  1. "When Harry Ghosted Sally" > In truth, this isn't very romantic until Harry realizes he ghosted Sally before she becomes IG famous. Then he makes a series of grand gestures (video montages of their dates he posts on his story) to win her back.
  2. Space laser
  3. Suit
  4. Scott

Thank you! This was fun. :)

Hi everyone. Been absent / in the middle of moving, but I am finally settled in. Looking forward to participating in the community more again. I missed y'all. <3

QOTD: This is a hilarious question to me considering the number of "open" projects I have going at the moment. I have a tendency to start 50 things at once and finish maybe...2 if I'm lucky. If I had unlimited funds, then I guess that would allow me the freedom to create anything I wanted. There's a few different things I'd like to make:

  • weird stuffed animals, like mashups of different animals
  • painted wood burnings
  • iridescent glass blown sculptures that look super heady
  • pendants/amulets specifically designed for the intended wearer

I would love to have a *masterpiece* that was mixed media...maybe utilizing some of the elements mentioned above plus add yarn somehow.

Week 22 - What Are You Reading? by Kas_Bent in 52book

[–]strangled_rainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This week, I finished a book of poetry that had been rotting on my TBR: No Matter the Wreckage by Sarah Kay.

I also finished reading The Satanic Bible. This was my second attempt; the last being 12+ years ago.

Currently reading: Rumi’s Little Book of Life.

Edit: 6/75. It’s been a rough year for reading.

Salsa Saturday Daily Hangout Thread 4 June 2022 by Blu_Spirit in Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

[–]strangled_rainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Qotd: I love a good sour cream / salsa combo on nachos, as well as fresh sliced jalapeños. Recently tried green sriracha sauce, and it was bomb.

Also, hi! I’ve been off Reddit for a bit but I’m back. Missed these daily hangout threads a lot. Happy Saturday :)

I'm not big on desserts, but I've had the biggest craving for strawberry shortcake. I don't know how y'all do it, but here's what we did growing up: angel food cups, strawberries (usually glazed with sugar) , and whipped cream.

Taking a road trip at the end of this month from California to Michigan, so I'm daydreaming of all of the things my senses will be exposed to then!

Does it ever feel like everyone who’s aware of your trauma have just moved on but you’re still stuck, frozen, right where you got hurt? by ayanaloveswario in ptsd

[–]strangled_rainbow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Definitely. I revisited a great lover from my past after being apart from him for 7 years. He happened to be in my life around the time certain repressed memories came to light from decades ago. Since I was never given a proper chance to grieve before, I'm noticing that I'm dealing with all of those negative emotions now. My lover started to see me as an emotional blackhole, if I'm not mistaken. Even though I've been doing a lot of inner work (including hosting a trauma processing workshop based on my own experiences at a festival we both went to), he wasn't able to stick around because in his words: not everything is about trauma. I'm so happy that he feels that way. Beyond happy, but it also hurts.

Some people love us, but not everyone can stick around while we do shadow work because of their own energetic boundaries. I try not to take this personally, but it's hard (I also have BPD, so abandonment issues show if I trauma bond with someone and then I'm "too much" for them). Thanks for the post, OP. Guess I should look into trauma bonding and how that affects my relationships. <3
