James is the pinnacle of the show. He is the one and only reason I have even laid eyes on the likes of pokemon: the series. If it wasn't for James, I would have a darkened mind of the subject of such matters. His charming personality, absolute fabulousness, and gorgeous purple hair are what keep me going each day. Whenever i'm down, I always have the same hallucination of james slapping me across the face and telling me I can do it.

Can I borrow that hallucination please -

i love giving my friends snacks when they have the munchies, that shit's hilarious. also i got a job, vv excited
Yoooo speaking of hallucinations, I’ve got a recurring one that I just call the “funky dogs” and they look something like this ( https://photos.app.goo.gl/a4pfySVWZqVT53UU8 )
They move kinda like crabs, except they don’t move their leg joints and they scare the shit outta me for about a second when I see em out of the corner of my eye but then I realize it’s the funky dogs and I just nod respectfully lol
One time one had a smiley face on it and it was the highlight of my day
When I'm drunk I tend to send sweet, heartwarming messages to people.
Awww. That's very sweet!
They have an immersive Van Gogh exhibit like 30 minutes away from me and my ex-girlfriend/best friend sent it to me and now she is probably regretting it because I want to go really badly and I want her to go with me but both of us are broke and I have severe sensory issues but I could be crying in pain and still be having the absolute best time of my life (Van Gogh has been one of my hyperfixations recently which is why she sent it to me. She also sent me a picture of Build a Bear's Van Gogh teddy bear that is out of stock)

I went to that actually! I also have sensory sensitivities, but it was actually very soothing. Everything is smooth and not hard on the eyes, and the sounds are never loud either. It was absolutely incredible and I highly recommend going, especially if you're a van gogh fan. I've been obsessed since I was little, and this had been the best experience of his I'd seen so far. Though, I don't want to pressure you or anything.
plus, they have really cool stuff in the gift shop

my internet friends keep spoiling PLA for me why
I literally just got the game, no I don’t want to know about the arceus cutscenes
Just got back from the cardiologist! Turns out I have Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome (born with extra electrical pathways that affects the beat of the heart. The heart’s electrical signal bounces around as it moves too quickly from the atrium to the ventricle and, sometimes, back again. This activity can cause the heart to beat too fast.)
I have the choice to do a surgery.
A heart specialist can thread a catheter through the blood vessels and up into the heart and burn away the extra pathway. 95% success rate
Nice!
Anywaysssss today is my birthday!
Happy birthday! 🎂 🥳 🎉

Wow, I really dislike NanoWriMo forums. I don't know but it just feels like everyone pounces on you at once to tear you apart as a writer and point out everything wrong and flawed with you being an author and your story. I mean yeah, constructive criticism is great but it's to the point of insults. I feel stupid-

I need some advice, so I love basketball and I want to be in the NBA but I have ADHD. I'm not very good at multi-tasking because when I get under pressure a lot, I have an anxiety attack. My mom is making me try out for my high-school team next school year (I'll be in 10th grade) but I'm afraid my anxiety will the best of me and I won't be good. What should I do?
Well first off, trying out for a sports team is nerve wracking. Secondly, I am literally the most ADHD person alive. When you’re playing a sport, it turns into a hyper fixation. It’s the only thing you can focus on. So I wouldn’t worry too much about it. You’re gonna get nervous and you’re gonna be anxious. You can’t stop that as much as you can stop the sun from rising. You have to trust your abilities. What I was taught in fencing was your mind blanks and forgets things. Your muscles however, don’t. So even if your mind draws a blank, your muscles won’t because you’ve trained them, and it’s something they know. And if you want to pursue basketball professionally, you actually have to start getting colleges to come look at you. You have to have sports recruiters come decide if you’re worth their time. And that’s even more nerve wracking than actually trying out. My words are, practice until you can’t get it wrong. Take 30-60 minutes a day just to shoot some baskets and make your muscles remember. If you do that, you’ll be just fine.

Winter, I couldn't have said it better myself (Happy birthday btw!!! Im obsessed with the Viking song XD)
With sports, there will always be anxiety. That's just how it works, but, without that fear, you can never become great.
Anxiety can be seen as a weakness, but it should be viewed as a strength. It makes you more cautious, it helps you make better decisions, and (in the world of sports) It helps you strive to become something greater, and gives you that sense of caution ad readiness in games.
So, if you're passionate about the sport, like winter said, practice always> Get the muscle memory down, and you'll do amazing things.
As for the anxiety, just start seeing it a little differently. It makes all the difference, trust me.
Anywaysssss today is my birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I can't even get nanowrimo's website to work half the time so they clearly have no room to talk haha. writing is subjective at the end of the day and if they're being a bunch of pricks they're not worth your time of day :)
