Keep In Mind - Tumblr Posts

This is definitely something worth reposting also 😊

the cure to self-sabotage is to anchor yourself to the universal truth that you are worth it. you are worth the effort. you are worth the difficulty, you are worth the time, you are worth the consideration. there is never a point in your life, in time itself, that you are not worth it. return to this truth when you feel yourself slipping. do not let it go.

I dug up some photos of two plushies from probably a little under 3 years ago now ^v^

These guys are from a fairly obscure game I fixated on a while ago called "Keep In Mind". You may have heard of it since both Markiplier and Jacksepticeye played it at one point, it was a pretty short game with a 2D pixel artstyle about overcoming personal demons (that's the most basic explanation I can give)

Anyways, the characters pictured here are named Suppression and Panic. I didn't have white fleece while making Suppression so I opted for faux fur, plus both of these guys have squeakers in their bellies :]

I had plushies planned for pretty much every other Keep In Mind character, but the fixation wore off before I could make anyone else. It might be kinda fun to make another one of these guys with my current plushmaking skills and style, although there are many more projects that take priority now so it's not very likely.

Stop talking yourself out of opportunities because you don’t feel like you’re “ready” yet. It’s time. You’re ready now.

i’m able to forget a lot of my embarrassing choices but the got fics i made a 13-15 will always haunt me

Enlil headcannon

In her own warped way, Enlil actually thinks of Hikari as a friend. She was the people she had the most investment in out of everyone else in the theater. Unfortunately, because of her makeup as a collective being, she could not fathom her method of "helping" people as wrong. Also, despite looking the contrary, she is really insecure about Hikari's disapproval. A good thing to note is that while she is dismissive about the other's arguments against her ideals (and by extension her very existence), she only gets visibly distraught when Hikari joins in with them. It is part of what gets her to change into her final form. Her perceived "affection" towards Hikari is also the main reason why she DOESN'T attack her in the final battle. Enlil already Thanos snapped the three wildcards quite effortlessly, and Hikari has only 15 hp. If Enlil wanted to erase Hikari and be done with it, she could have. But instead she seems to treat her with pity, even somberly saying her name to herself when she's wasting her voice on what she perceived as a hopeless effort. Unlike Yaldabaoth's relationship with Ren, Enlil seemed to be genuinely fond of Hikari, in her own twisted way. Like Izanami, Enlil genuinely thinks placing people into theaters full of depressing movies is helping them cope. She can't comprehend any other solution because of her literally being a negative aspect. Her transforming back into her Nagi form before fading back into the collective unconscious was a last ditch effort for to be remembered fondly in Hikari's eyes, as the "person" she knew her as for the most time.

If you have the means to donate gifts to toy drives or shelters, please keep the above tips in mind so you can help meet people’s wants and needs! 💓

Angst fics can help people come to terms with their own grief, begin healing, or give people that good cry that they need.

Smut fics can help people affirm and accept their sexuality. It can help them explore their sexuality in a safe way. They can also just be fun, and having fun is a drastically undervalued way to improve your mental health.

Dark fics can help people face their fears or process their trauma. It can make them feel safer and more secure. It can help them find their courage.

Fluff fics can give people rest and respite and comfort. It can give them hope that soft places exist and that maybe there is one out there for them. It can bring up their mood, which, if they have depression, can be a life saver.

And every fic people write makes someone feel less alone.

Point being, just because a particular thing doesn’t serve you, doesn’t mean it lacks value.

This is not to say that we have to consume all fic uncritically. Of course not. It is just to say that entire “genres” aren’t trash or lacking value just because they don’t serve you.

If this is a few months early no it isn't and shut up /j

Uhhh I forgot to do the text on the other two oh no

Reblog and put in the tags how many fandoms you've been in

Same here! Especially with how isolationist/non-interventionist the US was pre-WW2. After all, I can't remember if the move was exceptionally popular, but even post-WW2 there were people wanting to do what we did after WW1 and just go back to a more isolationist policy.

If anything Alfred would realistically be more of an 'ambivert' when dealing with other nations. Not out of hatred, our boy just has a long history of being a shut-in unless it pertains to business/politcs😆! Alfred would probably be someone who is extremely self-reliant, if we go by even the loosest terms of historical accuracy.

It just really gives off vibes odd vibes in a way. Though that may be the side of me who's studied the history of a lot of more 'anti-American' historians from the 1600s-now. A lot of the way Alfred is treated in fandom (as you said very much in a 'condescending' way), seems almost how writers like Samuel Johnson viewed Americans even before they became independent (ex. Americans are stupid, violent, they have no culture).

Apologies for the mini rant btw. I was just talking with someone on another website about this, so it all came out in a bit of a 'word vomit'😅. Even more so since I'm a huge American history nerd, and from your blog you are as well, so I'm using you as an excuse to ramble😅!

Man, I get that canonically Alfred can be a bit childish, but the amount of straight-up condescending infantilization I see him get hit with by a lot of fans is, uh, pretty grating.
