IronClan – Hardy, Stoic, Honor-bound Territory – Lower mountains and stony plateau with patches of shrubs tapering into thick coniferous forest. A defunct mine opening sits at the foot and tunnels part way under the mountain. IronClan territory is by far the harshest climate year-round. However the summer rocks provide an easy area to warm up, and the part of the cave they call home also may come with the boon of close-by prey they don’t have to go far to fill their bellies with; bats.
GoldClan – Proud, Charismatic, Adaptive Territory – Plains, coniferous forest slowly becoming mixed forest dominated by birch, beech, and maple. Waterfalls from over the mountain become a winding river and rivulets cutting paths through the trees. GoldClan spends the summer time in the open, a forest camp surrounded by pathways of water and walled up by branches and mud to mimic beavers. The winter becomes a retreat closer to the mountain when the water freezes to take shelter in a decrepit twoleg log cabin covered mostly by moss as shelter from the harsher cold.
JadeClan – Wise, Diplomatic, Secretive Territory – Most of the mountain sides, including a few other accessible paths into old mines that are far more crumbled and cut off from IronClan’s parts of the tunnels. A divot of an ages-dead volcano cuts off the peak into a bowl turning it into a kind of oasis of life spanning two miles where JadeClan spends the majority of time unseen by the other two clans save for Full Moon and Half-Moon meetings.

Is there really any better feeling than to be snuggled in bed with a cat on your stomach and a book in your hands?

They/Them was actually fantastic by the way. (But I already told Mint all about it and no one else will care.)

Heres a tidbit I just like to excitedly share with people.
The actress that plays Pinhead in the new hellraiser is a transwoman.

I love this place. I love the people in it. I love that I can have heart to heart conversations with people openly, and without judgement. I love feeling a semblance of human interaction and attachment when I've so desperately needed it these last few months. Are the people I spoke to going to read this post? Probably not, but I love them.

ur people, ily. I just feel like I'm mostly a shut-in. The only social medis I have is facebook and I pretty much exclusively use it for memes and to have access to messenger. Smetimes people also count discord as social media, but I am not really in any public discords except to keep tabs on certain games updating and it has too many people for me to feel comfortable talking.

Oughe my sleep schedule is so messed up because I took that nap but I needed it.
My brain is bouncing back and forth between planning the warrior fanfic (above) and the jokefic. Though I'm slightly focused more on the jokefic simply because it's absolutely goofy and I'm having fun with it. I needed something just unhinged and silly to relax, unfortunately because it's weird I have no one I can tell ideas to because they will all sound unhinged.

yeah, that's a bit relatable. it's probably better to not have most social media. i found out the hard way that social media (and by that i mean very drama-heavy places like twitter) can rot your brain and make you constantly paranoid and rage-fueled. had to unlearn that to be able to enjoy life again. so probably don't feel too bad about not having social media, because it can be the gateway to a pretty debilitating mindset, like i said in that other thread today.
as for discord, i'm in too many public discords but i rarely post in any of them. mostly i just use them to find resources. being in an active server can be overwhelming, so i try to stick to just messaging people one on one.
going on walks has also helped me overcome the feeling that i'm a shut in. if it's safe to go on walks, of course. i'll admit i've gotten a little bit confident and have been going on walks at night, but i have a hunch i should stop before someone tries to idk follow me home or something.

I go back and forth between wanting to be informed and being interested in current events and politics and such and being so exhausted from it. I feel mentally healthier with a big degree of separation between me & the rate and how I engage with it. I used to habitually check news stuff. But it's so lonely when everyone is using other social medias. I have a bit of fomo that I'm missing out on some of the positive stuff too, or things that are like going to be culturally important until I remember that the news and people still get so overwhelmingly negative. If you want in my discord, you can. It's a lot of me & some of my irl/long time online friends. 19 people including me but it's pretty slow. We do swear a lot and make innuendo jokes but anything too severe gets put in the sensitive topics group and we have a public trigger list for peoples triggers so we can avoid or spoiler things. The rules are there but since it's just us they're very loose. sometimes I don't follow them either.

and yeah, it's pretty lonely, but lonely is better than actively depressed. this sounds bad but i've accepted that i'm not mentally stable enough to handle a lot of current events without turning to bad coping mechanisms, so i avoid it entirely and just try to help make the world a better place outside of contributing to current events. besides, there's not much i can do as an individual outside of voting and organizing, so as long as i'm keeping up with what's relevant to those two things i should be able to improve things without burning myself out. i used to feel like i was selfish for that, sometimes i still do feel selfish, but i'm also a much more productive person when i'm not despising life on earth lmao, so it benefits everyone.
and sure, i'd love to join your discord! maybe i could share some of the horror stories that i can't share here. if you want to hear them, of course.

Yes! I'll pm you. And agreed on everything else. I think a lot of people would also see the world and the people in their immediate surroundings are usually mostly good if given a chance. And you will be able to find middle ground with most. I used to just live in a constant sense of paranois that since the area I am in is majority white/christian and I've experienced first hand the things that westboro baptist has done as well as some other churches I felt like, constantly scared that just everyone around me was like that. While they are pretty much just vocal and active minority. Though also, the place I am living now is a majority hispanic & black neighborhood and even though it's like... "poorer" all of my neighbors are just really delightful and friendly as opposed to when I lived in an apartment complex that was majority white and people were honestly pretty hostile or just kept to themselves. There was more crime going on in that place than since i've moved here. Though I do also think that is because it's also next to an elementary school.

What is Hellraiser day? o: Oh that was just when the new Hellraiser came out. I watched it. It was decent. I am actually not really a big fan of the new cenobite designs that are more fleshy and less leather but Jamie Clayton was a sufficiently terrorizing Pinhead. I feel like the new one, the Weeper, actually ended up overshadowing her in the terrifying and weird department though. I liked the story parallel on the new box with addiction with the main cast being in a group home for addiction recovery. But yeah.

Oh please do share more. Was there any plot element that was interesting other than the story parallel? Any neat set choices? Oh yes actually. There are a LOT of geometric shapes scattered throughout the sets. In the building architecture, in the way that some of the lighting is set up to cast a shadow on the set and scenery, on the giant cage thing. Even before the box is really seen much of, I immediately saw that the shapes they were using were basically the same shapes of the puzzle box and was like YOOOOO. Its such a subtle but neat touch. And one of those things that's like easy to miss the first time around. Its not the first time we have seen "the box" in a building. In... 4 or 5 and the comics there was an architect who basically made a building be the lament configuration (the name of the puzzle). But that was like a blatantly obvious this building IS the puzzle way, and this movie was more about subtly hinting at the shape.

I don't think I fully understand people who will gripe about not being able to understand the lyrics of like, metal/punk/alt/etc bands and call them terrible but then go and listen to a song in a language they don't know and can't understand anyway.
Like it's obviously not about the lyrics or understanding them, it's about the energy and sound it gives off. You can just say you don't like alternate music because it's too harsh for you, you don't have to come up with a bs reason and poopoo what other people like just to act superior.

I commented on the actual spotify thread it isn't working, also when I went to check the spotify songs I have apparently listened to the most from my main profile it had some artists I only listened to briefly while trying to find music/artists to favorite so it's not exactly accurate yet. I think the songs I've listened to the most more recently on youtube are probably Mr Kitty - Destroy me VNV Nation - When is the future Centhron - 666 VNV Nation - Joy Destaroes - Electric butterfly Infected Mushroom - Becoming insane
