Hi everyone!
We are an indie developing couple, and we’ve just released our first iOS and Android game. In it you can rack up a high score, proceed through the ranks, unlock rare accessories and design your own character. It’s free to play, and we have intentionally been very generous with premium currency to avoid the pitfalls of most gacha based games. We want all of the gacha and none of the frustration. In addition to this, we’re also running a launch campaign where if you download now you’ll get 250 pearls to use however you like!
If you are not interested in downloading or playing Orc Heist, please consider reblogging this post. We are hoping that this game will raise the funds needed for my fiancé’s immigration visa. It is a very expensive process that is especially difficult for us because I am disabled. Also, please don’t be shy about sharing feedback on the game, we welcome anything you want to say about it. Let’s have a good time!

Hiya everyone. I hope everyone is holding to hope today. Depression takes away our joys by bringing a lot of us into this survival mode where we focus on the basics like work, eat, and sleep and activities that distract us from the chaos happening in our minds. It should seem good enough to stay in survival mode but our mental health continues to decline simply because our brains were never meant to just survive. The brain performs a variety of higher functions that arent needed for basic survival. We dont need to know how to bake cakes, or build amusement parks or be an interior designer or make glitter or create different dance moves or even have such an extensive vocabulary with words that have the same meanings. We didnt have to dive so deep or reach to the stars, but humanity did and we do everyday by just daydreaming of creating and discovering new ideas and places. The truth is our brains Survive to Thrive. Depression brings us to a place where we feel the burden of keeping on but cant access the memories of what for. We dont remember our passions or hope or really who we are at times and if we do they seem numbed in ice and the connection to our identity is weakened. I think for the most part we dont want to die, I think we forget how much we truly want to live. Under all the supression and burden that is depression we forget how to thrive and then we forget that we want to thrive at all. Its not easy to thrive because with depression our brains are wired to perserve oursevles, our emotions, our focus, our energy, our actions as a way to cope. Dont hate yourself because your brain is trying to protect you from breaking even more. Depression biggest weapon is turning you against yourself. Love yourself, your cells are cheering you on, I'm cheering you on, people in the world who know of people like you are hurting are cheering you on, and somewhere your very being is waiting for permission to cheer yourself on. Love yourself even on the days you dont consider yourself so great because you are always of great worth either way. Even if you didnt like who you were yesterday make the choice on what person you will be today and then tomorrow, one day at a time, theres more things that change than things that stay still. We are welcome to grow along too. And we can grow into another way and the true way of thinking. Our little cells make us a force to be reckoned with so our little acts to support our goal of thriving can do the same. When I think of thriving, I think of being joyfully 'unecessary'. Add a different spice to the same meal. Make your own little dance, color in a coloring book, your brain thinks it wants to die? no it wants to DYE, paint on that paper then, color the world with your creative ideas, sleep on the other side of your bed tonight, add a little to your life like flavor powder adds color and a different taste to the water. Humm to yourself, write a short story, mismatch your socks, talk into the fan, make shadow puppets, make your own joke to tell people, make that bopping noise with your mouth, thrive not by doing hundreds of 'unnecessary' things in a day but by allowing yourself to be the more you already are little by little. Jesus bless you all.
Almost a year ago, when I was feeling particularly hopeless about the state of the world, I felt like a needed a little comedy. So I wrote one. Now, if you’re feeling like YOU need a little comedy, you can listen. After almost a year of script revisions, five months of recording, and 300+ hours sound editing, I am proud to present: The Stench of Adventure.Â

A YouTuber that I follow posted this from her IG… PLEASE READ IF YOU OWN A CAT AND LIVE IN THE UK. This is terrifying… This is real- the youtuber that I follow researched it, and went to the official site. Apparently it’s for certain dates and certain bar codes, so please take this seriously.Â

my intrusive thoughts have definitely improved, personally, but actual intrusive thoughts are so horrifying that it creates a vicious cycle of stigma –> ppl dont want to talk about what its actually like to have intrusive thoughts –> lack of information on what intrusive thoughts ACTUALLY are –> stigma.
the point of intrusive thoughts is that they’re really scary. having quirky ideas are just thoughts. those are just normal thoughts. intrusive thoughts are distressing and painful. that is why they are debilitating.Â
i think it would help if ppl who dont experience intrusive thoughts imagined them as….behaving more like flashbacks than normal thoughts. ppl with traumatic flashbacks dont intentionally have them. theyre a part of your brain attempting to process trauma, and more importantly, its indicative of your brain going back to a dark situation instinctively because of a trigger.Â
intrusive thoughts are similar. they’re just relative to the current situation rather than throwing you into the past. its your brain literally applying your trauma/illness to whats happening around you.Â
if you were heavily exposed to violence or suicidal ideation in the past, your first intrusive thought when in the kitchen with your s/o chopping carrots might be “stab yourself” or even “stab your partner.” its horrible, but its your brain reverting back to what it was exposed to. its not any more morally corrupt than seeing a knife and having flashbacks to an act of violence you witnessed that traumatized you in the past.
you wouldnt tell someone having a flashback that they’re doing it on purpose or that theyre intentionally having a flashback bc they want to traumatize others. dont do the same to people with intrusive thoughts.
I'm not lying when I say this tweet brought a tear to my eye
